Over the past decade, blockchain finance has experimented with many approaches on the path of stablecoins—collateralized stablecoins, algorithmic models, cross-chain solutions, yield aggregation, and even various hybrid architectures. Flip it around and look back, there’s been no shortage of innovation in models, but the core problem has never truly been solved.



The underlying logic is actually quite harsh: all existing stablecoins rely on "asset-backed credit." If the assets are stable in source, the stablecoin remains stable; if asset prices fluctuate, the entire system trembles. It’s like building a house on quicksand—no matter how reinforced the foundation, the soil underneath determines the fate of the building. As long as the stability anchor is the price, it cannot escape the cycle of bull and bear markets; as long as the system revolves around collateral assets, it will never become a true "financial structure."

The key is to change the source of credit. Instead of increasing collateralization ratios or optimizing liquidation models, it’s better to directly shift toward "structured credit"—transforming credit from single-point assets into multi-layered collaboration, from price dependence to mechanism dependence, from single endorsement to holistic endorsement. In this way, stability is no longer parasitic on asset fluctuations but rooted in the system’s own mechanism design.

On-chain finance has, for the first time, gained a kind of "structural stability capability" similar to traditional finance. You will realize how different this is from those traditional single-collateral models—they fundamentally still play the asset game, while this direction is playing the structural game.

After all these years of stablecoin schemes, it feels like just hype. Structured credit sounds sophisticated, but has it really been implemented? It's probably another round of new concept hype. I bet five dollars that in the end, it still comes down to collateral. After a decade of tinkering, the core hasn't changed; it's still just stacking layers. But I really want to see if this time truly is different...

After all this time, someone finally hit the nail on the head. The idea of structured credit is indeed another dimension.

Honestly, after ten years of struggling, we're still stuck on the old path of collateralization. It's really time to change our approach. Wait, can structured credit truly solve the problem, or is it just another round of new concept hype? The analogy of building a house on quicksand is perfect; it hits the nail on the head. So, ultimately, the problem is that no one dares to really let go of the rope of asset credit. Mechanism reliance sounds impressive, but are there any projects currently actually doing it, or is it just another ideal?
