Interesting times ahead!
I still see no point in calling them stable coins, when essentially they are worthless tokens... I got offered bunch of USDC but rejected as transferring them around would have cost more than worth of USDC I received.
Most of the so called stable coins are useful only off-chain inside exchanges as bookkeeping like I have mentioned before. Same goes for tokens issued by exchanges themselves.
