Could you please elaborate on why Bitcoin is not considered a stablecoin? Given its widespread adoption and recognition in the crypto world, it's intriguing to understand what attributes distinguish it from stablecoins, which aim to maintain a stable value. Is it the volatility that Bitcoin experiences? Or is it the underlying technology and principles that make it different? It would be helpful to get a deeper understanding of these distinctions. Thank you for shedding light on this topic.
