Seems to me it would be easy to make a stable stablecoin pegged to the US dollar. Just make this rule: for every $1 increment of currency minted, the company behind the coin puts $1 USD into an account. The public must be able to compare the account balance to the stablecoin supply. As long as there is always an extant dollar for every $1 of stablecoin, the value of the stablecoin should remain stable. Oh, also, a stablecoin holder must always be able to exchange coins for USD at a rate of 1:1.
Of course, this defeats the purpose, but it solves your gradient problem.
