Stability is so relative. Comparing my portfolio to 1 year ago. My dollars and euros lost value, all my crypto is worth at least twice as much. I don't care about stable if this is the long term game.

of the currency that lost value? do you see the irony here?

I compare all to CHF, but it doesn't matter if you have a somewhat stable base currency you see the same I described.

Of the amount of goods and services you can buy with it.

Fiat is just a convenient unit of account, that serves the purpose of contrast.

How'd you fuck that up the market has been shooting up every week?

Not compared to CHF no, USD is on a stable but slow down for me.

I think they are just used to compliance.
