Today, @usbank announced a successful live pilot of USBDC, the bank's proprietary USD-backed stablecoin, on the Stellar network. USBDC is one of the first bank-issued stablecoins deployed on a public blockchain. Traditional finance meets innovation on Stellar.

.@USDT0_to on Stellar is a significant milestone for blockchain built for real-world payments and cross-border finance. What does this integration actually unlock? We've got answers. For fintechs and PSPs👇

Finance is going onchain, but which chain? The answer from @rajachak75's session at @rwasummit this morning: an institutional-grade network is one that's open within its own ecosystem, not just interoperable with other chains on paper.

See you at @StellarOrg Meridian 2026 in Lisbon on the 28th & 29th of October. 🇵🇹 We’ll be sharing what real-world stablecoin adoption looks like when it moves beyond theory — from humanitarian aid and AI-powered financial infrastructure to global financial access.

Just got my speaker card for Meridian 2026. 🇵🇹 Decaf will be giving a Lightning Keynote in Lisbon this October. This year, we’ve seen stablecoins used for humanitarian aid paying thousands of families in Venezuela, helped people from 100+ nationalities access and use money across borders, and watched the technology start to disappear into the background. That’s the part I find most exciting. Stablecoins underneath. AI handling the complexity. Bank accounts, cards, cash, QR and WhatsApp on the surface. Most people may never think of themselves as “crypto users” - they’ll just have better financial tools. There are a lot of events where people talk about what blockchain could do. Meridian is increasingly where you can see what it’s already doing. See you in Lisbon, Oct 28–29. 🇵🇹

“The growth happening on Stellar validates the direction.” With 15 SEC-registered tokenized funds across money market, equity, fixed income and alternatives, @WisdomTreePrime is showing what a diversified onchain market can look like.

.@StellarOrg’s RWA sector has quadrupled to cross the $3B mark in just 7 months. DeFi has a significant opportunity to scale it further, with pricing infrastructure emerging as a key unlock. Stellar gave builders a unified price data interface. RedStone is bringing the data.

A corporate-controlled chain is the procurable option. There's a contract, a service level, and a name your legal team can evaluate. The party you can point to is the party who can change the terms on you. @DenelleDixon makes the case for having no one to call 👇

#Stellar# now holds more tokenized non-US government debt than any other blockchain. Most of the world's governments and businesses run on local currency. A network built for the world can't neglect that. Mexican CETES, Brazilian Tesouro from @etherfuse , euro T-bills on @Spiko_finance , Korean Treasury Bonds, Marshall Islands sovereign debt — five continents, one network. Congrats to @RajaChakravorti and every issuer doing the work. @StellarOrg @BuildOnStellar
