Even as bitcoiners, we can’t deny that there is demand for
‘stablecoins’ or some kind of stable value feature. Tony
Klausing, bitcoin and lightning developer joins me to talk about
Stable Channels. This approach to stable value is self custodial,
P2P, and bitcoin-native. We talk about the benefits, trade offs
and who this would be suitable for.
