Contrary to what many would believe, something like Bitcoin is not fungible. Instead a coin without history can be regarded as fungible. For example Monero is a strong privacy coin with good fungibility.

For a stable coin to actually work, it needs to be private and algorithmic. The only such crypto I know of, is Haven protocol. This is based on a fork of Monero the largest fungible crypto network, with a system of private synthetic assets on top. Things like synthetic USD, CHF, GBP, also gold and silver...etc. If you find this interesting, read more at https://havenprotocol.org/knowledge/
