There are multiple ways.
Stablesats uses a derivatives strategy, so there is no "issuer" per say.

Algorithmic stablecoins are a synthetic asset backed by a set of incentives to keep the peg.

Yes, but there are non-algorithmic overcollateralized stablecoins or semi-collateralized semi-algorithmic (like frax).
