Abstract

Cet article propose une analyse économique des stablecoins mettant en évidence les liens avec la finance traditionnelle. Même s'il existe des stablecoins dont l'arrimage est garanti par un tiers de confiance, cet article se concentre principalement sur les stablecoins gérés directement par un système d'incitations sur une blockchain décentralisée. Nous mettons en évidence les enjeux de gouvernance et de liquidation des stablecoins décentralisés, qui sont au coeur du système de maintien de leur valeur. Enfin, nous discutons des risques associés à ces stablecoins, notamment les mécanismes entraînant une perte de stabilité.
