The Bitcoin-Backed Stablecoin That Ditches US Treasuries w/ David Seroy

from Bitcoin Magazine Podcast · host BTC Media

Every popular stablecoin — Tether, USDC — is ultimately backed by US Treasuries, which means a handful of entities can freeze, seize, or censor your funds at will. In this conversation, David Seroy of Alpen Labs explains to Bitcoin Magazine's Shinobi why a Bitcoin-backed stablecoin is the credible alternative the space has been missing. They cover the immutable Liquity protocol, Bitcoin ZK rollups, and how to mint a dollar that inherits Bitcoin's security.Grab your copy THE 2036 ISSUE👇https://store.bitcoinmagazine.com/pages/the-2036-issue🔶 Shinobi — Bitcoin Magazine🔶 David Seroy — Head of Ecosystem, Alpen Labs Chapters: 1:50 — Rethinking stablecoin collateral without the dollar2:37 — Why DAI and Terra Luna failed3:29 — Liquity's immutable, governance-free breakthrough4:41 — Bitcoin ZK rollups: the missing collateral layer6:09 — How liquidations and the stability pool work9:23 — Who funds the stability pool — and why11:13 — Liquity V2 and user-set interest rates13:28 — Privacy, censorship resistance, and closing thoughts#Bitcoin #Stablecoins #BitcoinBackedStablecoin #CensorshipResistant #Liquity #LiquityV2 #AlpenLabs #DavidSeroy #Shinobi #BitcoinMagazine #BitcoinConference #USTreasuries #Tether #USDC #DAI #TerraLuna #BitcoinL2 #ZKRollup #StabilityPool #DeFi #BTC #FiatDebt #SovereignDebt #PrivacyPayments #Fedimint #Cashu #BitcoinDollar #Immutable #BTCCollateralDISCLAIMER: The views and opinions expressed in this show are those of the participants and do not necessarily reflect the official policy or position of BTC Inc., Bitcoin Magazine, or any affiliated entities.
