Panel discussion on Stellar's growth trajectory featuring leaders from Settle Network, Liquid Group, SatoshiPay, and Securrency debating the network's focus on remittances versus broader use cases, DeFi adoption via Protocol 18 AMMs, and scalability challenges.
A panel debate at Meridian conference featuring Boris Raznikov (SDF Director of Business Development) and four ecosystem leaders discussing Stellar's strategic direction. Topics covered: whether Stellar should prioritize remittances or expand to B2B, micropayments, and domestic payments; the case for diversifying beyond payments into DeFi, CBDCs, tokenized assets, and digital securities; the impact of Protocol 18's native AMM implementation on liquidity and trading; the role of speculation in bootstrapping adoption; and network scalability concerns. Panelists emphasized the importance of low fees, fast settlement, regulatory compliance, and building robust fiat on/off ramps to drive mainstream adoption.
