Separate the token from the platform
A user can take stablecoin risk from the token, the exchange holding it, the network used to move it, or the custody choice around it. Those are not the same risk even if they appear in one balance.
Questions worth asking
- How easily can the user exit or redeem if they need to?
- Is the token being held in self-custody or through a platform?
- Are network choices and transfer costs clear?
- Is convenience causing the user to hold more exposure in one place than intended?
Why this belongs on a market site
Stablecoins are part market structure, part operational risk. That makes them ideal bridge content between market boards, exchange pages, and wallet pages.
