Stable TGE Tonight, Will the Market Still Buy into the Stablecoin Public Chain Narrative?
Stable, a Layer 1 blockchain supported by Bitfinex and Tether, is set for its mainnet launch on December 8th. It is designed with a focus on stablecoin infrastructure, using USDT as the native gas token to enable sub-second settlements and feeless peer-to-peer transfers. The native token, STABLE, has a fixed supply of 100 billion and is not used for gas fees but for governance, staking, and ecosystem incentives.
Token allocation includes 10% for Genesis Distribution (fully unlocked at launch), 40% for ecosystem and community growth, and 25% each for the team and investors (with a 1-year cliff and linear release). The network uses a DPoS consensus model where users stake STABLE to participate in validation and governance.
Prior to launch, Stable conducted two pre-deposit phases, which saw massive demand and technical issues, raising concerns over fairness and KYC delays. The project raised $28 million in seed funding at a $300 million valuation.
Market expectations are mixed. Pre-launch perpetual trading suggests an FDV around $3 billion, while prediction markets indicate an 85% probability of FDV exceeding $2 billion post-launch. Pre-depositors may see returns between 7% to 16.9% based on current estimates. Exchanges like Bitget and Bybit have announced support, but major platforms like Binance and Coinbase have not.
