What about the so called 'stablecoins'?

(Although those sound dodgy AF to me?, not backed 1-1 anymore?)

    Afaik no current stablecoin is proven via audit to be 1-1 backed, not sure if any are still claiming it.

    Algorithmic stablecoins on the other hand are only stableish; see the terra/luna fiasco

    Stable coins... Aka gold? I heard gold is pretty stable.

    Yes sir, I'd like to buy this game with this bar of gold. At Steam's headquarters.
