Stablecoins are Cryptocurrencies that are backed by another stable asset, like gold or the U.S. dollars ($) currency. It's a global currency that is not tied to a central bank but has low volatility allowing it to be used to pay for things like electricity bills, etc.
Stablecoins aim to provide safety in relation to the major currencies of which reputable central banks are tasked with maintaining the purchasing power over time on the market for crypto-assets. Crypto-assets are characterised by high price volatility, which makes them incapable of performing the three functions of money, namely acting as a store of value, a means of payment and unit of account. Stablecoins have been introduced by their proponents as an attempt to protect the revenues from crypto-asset investments from such volatility.

How do stablecoins maintain their stability?
Methods needs to be applied for stablecoins to maintain their stability.
The backing with collateral enables to keep the price stable and buy back the stablecoin in the same amount of Fiat or other asset that is is pegged to. By that we mean if there is no demand for the payment asset then the issuer will repurchase it from the backed collateral provided by the system at a pre-fixed price.

In the case of independent projects here are 5 solutions for exchange rate stability:

Fiat-backed
This FIAT backing can only be used to repurchase previously issued coins. In this, the involvement of a third party (bank, escrow) is inevitable.
Crypto backed
Crypto currencies is decentralised by other liquid cryptocurrencies or a cryptocurrency portfolio it can be a great solution to strengthen decentralisation.
Other asset backed
In this case the issued payment assets are not backed by other payment assets. Instead, they are backed by securities, stocks, government bonds or even gold and other precious metals. This is a great method to ensure stability, but we must be borne in mind that these assets are not as liquid. The portfolio to be hedged must be continuously evaluated for market capitalisation and coin issuance is only possible with that value in mind.
Hybrid
It can significantly reduce risks if a stablecoin is backed by a “hybrid” method. This means that the hedge is made up of multiple items as stated above. This gives the system room for manoeuvring and provides extended security. As the payment asset becomes more and more adopted it allows the system to extend the portfolio with less liquid assets such as real estate funds or hedge funds.
And each of these solutions can be found on the market in order to achieve stability.
