Contrasting the Years
Comparing 2022 and 2023, both HBD and other stablecoins generally exhibited a decrease in standard deviation, reflecting increased stability. The mean price for HBD slightly increased, indicating a more consistent valuation over time. However, the overall comparison suggests that HBD has maintained its relative stability, even as it faces fluctuations common in the cryptocurrency market.
HBD vs. Other Stablecoins
Despite marked improvements, HBD remains an order of magnitude away from the stability achieved by more prominent stablecoins like USDC and USDT. The limited liquidity of HBD may contribute to this difference. While the statistical data shows progress, it is essential to note that HBD's stability is not yet on par with its more established counterparts.
The primary achievement lies in maintaining a fairly robust peg around the $1 mark.
