Lumen Loop's take

At Meridian's Doru stage, five SCF projects showcase institutional DeFi on Stellar. Soxno solves liquidity fragmentation with hub-and-spoke architecture, letting new RWA assets access $200M+ existing liquidity from day one. Noter launches a perpetual DEX for regulated finance with contracts live on mainnet. Alula standardizes RWA-specific lending with configurable templates targeting $20M in private credit demand. Zenex enables up to 20x leveraged XLM trading with growing volume. Liquid opens regulated access to private market yield for qualified investors. These five projects together represent Stellar's evolution from payments network to institutional DeFi hub, with regulated access, RWA liquidity, and derivatives infrastructure.
