StableChain's whitepaper has finally been released, and I found their token design quite interesting after taking a look.

The biggest highlight is that the STABLE token doesn't follow the traditional public chain model—users don’t need to use it to pay gas fees when interacting on-chain; all transaction fees are settled directly in USDT. This design definitely lowers the barrier for regular users, as they no longer need to stock up on native tokens or worry about running out of gas.

STABLE itself has a clear positioning: it’s an ERC-20 governance and coordination token. Its core functions are focused on network security maintenance and community governance voting, effectively separating the roles of “transaction fuel” and “governance rights.”

As for the specific supply numbers, the whitepaper discloses them in detail. However, whether this tokenomics design will work still depends on how the ecosystem develops. The idea of decoupling gas fees and governance tokens is worth paying attention to, especially for application scenarios aiming to lower user costs.
