The US CPI data was suddenly released yesterday, shocking the entire market - the inflation rate actually fell significantly by 0.4%, dropping from an expected 3.1% to 2.7%. It sounds like Favourable Information, but here’s the problem: Is this data reliable? The unemployment rate data from last October staged a "rise then revise" farce, will this time be another one?

Ironically, the Trump administration is eager to cut interest rates and initiate quantitative easing, but Federal Reserve Chairman Powell has stepped on the brakes. Prices are still rising, yet they want to cut interest rates? That is like adding fuel to the fire.

Upon careful consideration, what is the truth behind this data "magic"? Is it a natural evolution of the economy, or a "adjustment" tailored for a political agenda? Traditional finance's own data has started to be ambiguous; what can we still trust?

This skepticism towards centralized data and policy motivations actually points to a deeper issue: when even inflation data can be beautified, and "trust" itself has become a luxury, where should we look?

At this time, the perspective of decentralized finance becomes particularly interesting. It does not rely on data published by a single institution and is not manipulated by any government or interest group—stable mechanisms based on code, mathematics, and transparent on-chain assets are emerging. The design philosophy of stablecoins was born in this context: to replace the failing trust with technology and transparency.

As the "cornerstone of trust" in traditional finance cracks due to political considerations and conflicts of interest, can a new stable framework truly answer the call of this era? More and more people are seeking the answer.
