If you're coming from that angle, people would want stablecoins. Not that it's a bad thing - if it solves the problems they see, why not. But they also have problems that they don't see, and that indeed presents the difficulty you've described.
I'm not sure people care that much when it comes to tipping/micropayments. I still get a little zing out of a 100 sat tip on SN, and it's not really affected by the price of BTC in dollars.
I'm thinking that since sats are such a small monetary unit (for now), people could treat them much like they do likes and upvotes, but the advantage is, if you accumulate a pile, it actually ends up being worth serious money.
