IBM Is Helping Launch a Price-Stable Cryptocurrency Insured By the FDIC

The latest attempt to create a cryptocurrency pegged to the U.S. dollar, or "stablecoin," combines 21st-century technology with an invention from the Great Depression.

Announced Tuesday, a startup called Stronghold is launching USD Anchor, which will run on the rails of the Stellar blockchain and use its consensus mechanism to verify transactions. The token will be backed one-for-one with U.S. dollars held at a Nevada-charted trust company called Prime Trust, which in turn will deposit the cash at banks insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corp.

So, a centralized Tether then? How are tokens gonna be distributed? 1-1 ratio for what I have in the bank, or are a select group of whales gonna baghold and dump it on the goyim?

i want to buy XLM but it makes me nervous as fuck with the low circulating supply. if they release the lumens over a 10 year period like they said that's crazy hidden inflation with 8 billion added to the circ supply every year.

this would add inflation (aprox.) at these rates:
1st year = 30%
2nd year = 25%
3rd year = 20%
4th year = 15%
5th year = 10%
6th year = 8%
and so on..

and that's not counting the fact that those tokens given out may be sold which doubles the inflation if they do. lets say half of the new tokens that are distributed for free are sold off, you're looking at a loss of 80-90 % over the next few years.

I would wait until the supply is at least 50% in circulation before buying lumens

So everything in this world that involves money pretty much is backed by just faith we have in it? HAHAHAHAHAHA. Life is the fucking matrix.
