  Depegging is not a common practice in the world of digital currencies. Most cryptocurrencies are pegged to a specific asset or currency, such as the US dollar or gold. This pegging provides stability and helps to maintain a consistent value for the cryptocurrency. However, there have been instances where cryptocurrencies have been depegged, usually due to regulatory changes or market fluctuations. Depegging can lead to increased volatility and uncertainty in the value of the cryptocurrency.
