The largest in the WORLD.
"SAFO is currently the world's largest tokenized fund both by assets under management and number of holders."
Let that sink in 👀
@Spiko_finance CEO Paul-Adrien Hyppolite stopped by #Meridian2026 to chat about the fund's massive milestone. Built on Stellar.

Your challenge for Meridian 2027: more.
Onchain finance should be business as usual, and we only get there if you build the solutions to move more capital & open new markets.
Stellar is the home for builders of the financial future.

@StellarOrg’s rank by active developers in a year, according to @JoseFDaPonte. He says 4,000 devs are building on it, more than any chain except Ethereum.
“And we’re working on that.”

We're at @StellarOrg Meridian asking builders what the event's slogan "made to move" means to them.
Here's what they said. 👇

I'm super proud to unveil and open-source Project Thruput. Our mission is to eliminate all practical blockchain scaling limits to make smart contract execution free. thruput.network/ #Blockchain #smartcontracts #Stellar
The cherry on top of a successful Meridian Day 1? Dinner with @WalletConnect @BoysClubWorld and @StellarOrg. We ate, we drank, and we talked about hocus pocus… I mean agents.
Packed house Day 1 of @StellarOrg Meridian.

Digital assets may be the future, but there is still something romantic about seeing your name in print.
What a way to kick off @StellarOrg Meridian!

Stellar = the hammer & chisel breaking the ice for traditional finance, according to @Scaramucci.
We'll take it.
We caught up with him after his fireside with @DenelleDixon at #Meridian2026.

The real-world asset (RWA) market is becoming increasingly diversified across blockchains.
Ethereum remains the dominant network, accounting for more than 40% of RWA market cap, but its share has fallen nearly 30 percentage points over the past year.
Solana, BNB Chain, Stellar and Avalanche are among the networks gaining ground as tokenization expands beyond Ethereum.

📊 Stablecoin market cap on @StellarOrg has grown 154% this year, rising from $216.6M in January to $551.1M by October.
Most of that growth comes from @USDC, which makes up more than 95% of stablecoins on the network.

What privacy on the Stellar network actually looks like: open and configurable.
Keep the base layer open, and build privacy solutions on top to protect what you need to.
Meridian is officially, official

Price the fundamentals.
I hear this narrative a lot. It simply isn't true for @BuildOnStellar. For many other chains it is so I understand it, but the narrative absolutely doesn't hold for Stellar.
Look at the data developerreport.com/ecosyste…
Together we've achieved something rare for a blockchain; product market fit where the product isn't a casino and adoption isn't tied to it's token price.

Yup
But we will only catch people’s attention when it goes 10x 50x 100x
People assume price of token = adoption
Otherwise it’s a 💩 chain
I am a believer and love @StellarOrg

With Protocol Adapter, the Stellar network's theoretical throughput is now ~3300 TPS.
Huge shoutout to core engineering team @StellarOrg and the ecosystem devs and validators that contributed to network improvement.
Best part: the improvement continues.
