Abstract

As stablecoins address the challenges of price stability in the cryptocurrency market, this paper provides a comprehensive taxonomy of stablecoins, categorizing them based on governance, value, and design dimensions. Our study aims to enrich the ongoing discourse in digital currency and provide insights into the future trajectory of stablecoins in decentralized finance.
