Situating Stablecoins in the Payments Landscape - Nic Carter

>The only thing an ecash mint can do is freeze the whole mint. A stalecoin issuer can freeze a specific coin.

There is a more practical threat of ecash vs stablecoins. 

The real way you get scammed via ecash is by "fractional reserve" ecash tokens. That is when you put your $100 of bitcoin into ecash token, the mint generates $101 in ecash tokens...sends $100 to you and keeps $1 for itself. 

If they did this with self-control, it would be very difficult for anyone in the "ecash network" to detect this. 

Whereas with most public ledgers you get to see exactly how many tokens of any given type exist. 

The way you mitigate the ecash risk practically, is by never intending to hold the tokens for an extended period. So plan on spending all $100 ecash tokens over the next few weeks or whatever.
