In the case of stablecoins, unfortunately, the name is so far a misnomer. The fact that stablecoins are pegged to a “real” asset does not equate to stability. Traditional underlying assets are not exempt from market fluctuations, and with the majority of stablecoins pegged to fiat, they can be just as unstable.
What the name could be, however, is aspirational — something that stablecoins might yet live up to if they can tie themselves to a solid foundation.
