The Dollar is the real stable coin, thanks to its unbreakable peg to the dollar.

It's losing its peg to real world things at a rate of 8.5% a year.
Awesome. You we're just making a joke, but for some reason that one simple statement had my brain looking at the dollar from a whole different perspective for a few seconds. "What is money, anyway????" Nice. It's like when you start to grapple with relativity... "What is time???"
Sometimes collectible coins trade for more than face value.
