Anyway, when I need to convert my Bitcoin, I think it is better to convert it to dollars or my national currency (Rupiah). I can't use Bitcoin for any transactions in my country, that's why I need to convert it. I think convert it to stable coins won't be a good idea. Stable coins can drop its price, it is not totally stable in price. Even you know that the price can free fall if there is something wrong with the coin in the future.
Indeed, stablecoins are not as safe as many people think, they are no different from altcoins on the market, they can decrease in price and lose their pegs at any time. Stablecoins are just an intermediary when we convert bitcoin to fiat currency and vice versa, and I've never held too many of them.
If I had to choose, I would still choose USD over stablecoins, because they have never been fundamentally safer than USD. Stablecoin of the Terra ecosystem has taught us a lesson and let us not forget that lesson.
If we are talking about stability I 100% agree with you. I will surely just convert my Bitcoin to USD or my local currency, than convert it to stablecoins. It is better and safer to have it like that especially since it's still hard to find merchants that accept Bitcoin for transactions here in my area. Besides, I'm sure some, if not most, of us are already aware that stablecoins are not really "stable".
