kollider thing that is not even released yet plus the extra custodian on top.
It was selected due to several reasons:
  • allow people to deploy their own nodes with hedging (no-KYC, API enabled, LN exchange)
  • suitable contracts. Anyone who wants to run Fiat Channels for themselves could enjoy higher capital efficiency and approximately zero funding fees
Tron or elsewhere.
You probably do not know that transactions on TRON may be failed or reverted.
Also why Taro is better than native synthetic asset already available.

Sure, also USDC can freeze addresses by government request. But few people care.

The key word here is "synthetic", in other words, this asset is an algorithmic stablecoin less battle tested than Terra. The problem is you can't synthesize more value than the underlying asset (bitcoin) has. For example, suppose people send 10M$ worth of BTC into Kollider and mint synthetic $ with it, but then BTC goes down 10x. Is there 10M$ value still in the $ tokens? Of course not. This is when you activate HODL mode for everybody.
Taro will allow normal non-synthetic tokens like USDC and USDT to circulate on LN. That is the way.

There is enough depth in perpetuals, not only on Kollider. And of course, users shouldn't use fiat-denominated liquidity for store their wealth there.
And Fiat Channels may work with bearer stables as well.
