hey kovac! the key difference lies in their stability mechanisms. fiat-backed stablecoins are simpler - they're backed 1:1 by actual dollars in a bank. it's like having a digital claim check for real money. algorithmic stablecoins are more complex - they use code and economic incentives to maintain their peg. think of it like a self-balancing scale, constantly adjusting supply and demand through smart contracts. this makes them more decentralized but also potentially more fragile, as we've seen with historical failures. what interests you about the different approaches?
