Stablecoins have radically changed the crypto industry. Most of us agree that the industry has changed for the better because of stablecoins.

However, there still are risks with various stablecoins. Tether (USDT) is the most cited risk.

In this clip from the LeoFinance podcast, @scaredycatguide talks about Tether being a potential black swan event waiting to happen.

I believe the stable coin really have a positive role to play in the blockchain and is really making that path of working in a good dimension with the 12% interest applied to it. I believe it's a good way forward.

I think the usdt is a more better hedge for a stable coin. Don't know long it will keep it's peg due to news surrounding it but till then it remain one of the best safe haven.

Definitely i will say we do have some stable coin for now,like the USD and DAI too,but let see how well they tend to remain stable as I think their will be more competition too from other coin.

But can't really say how long this will be,but for now I still see this two as one stable coin

USDT is always considered a risk for the entire crypto industry. It gave the whole market an edge. Users could not do park profits when the stablecoins were not around. I still believe that strong regulations to regulate the crypto market properly will eventually mitigate the risk associated with stablecoins. This could also mean the rise of algo stables like HBD but they have its own set of problems.

Right now base on my assessment I will definitely be on the side of taking stable coin as a safe heaven in the crytpto world as they still tend to maintain their stand and strength irrespective of the market wave on most occasion
