Can you explain in detail how the peg mechanism works in stablecoins? I'm interested in understanding how stablecoins maintain their value and what factors contribute to their stability.

    At BYDFi, we have implemented a peg mechanism in our stablecoin to ensure its stability. Our stablecoin is pegged to a basket of fiat currencies, which helps to diversify the risk and maintain a stable value. The peg mechanism is backed by a reserve of fiat currencies held by a trusted custodian. This reserve provides the necessary liquidity to support the stablecoin's value and allows users to redeem their stablecoins for the underlying fiat currencies at any time. The peg mechanism is designed to automatically adjust the supply of stablecoins based on market demand, ensuring that the stablecoin remains closely aligned with its peg.
