Tyler Vanderhoeven from SDF leads a technical workshop on implementing SEP24 (interactive deposit and withdrawals) into a Stellar wallet, demonstrating how anchors and wallets interact to enable on and off ramps for fiat currencies onto the Stellar network.
This is a technical workshop on SEP24, a Stellar Ecosystem Proposal that standardizes how anchors and wallets interact for deposits and withdrawals. Tyler Vanderhoeven, ecosystem evangelist at the Stellar Development Foundation, walks through the architecture of SEP24, explains how anchors serve as on/off ramps for fiat currencies, and demonstrates a complete implementation using the Stellar demo wallet and Polaris test anchor. The workshop covers key concepts including stellar.toml files, web authentication (SEP10), trust lines, and the full deposit/withdrawal flow using JavaScript. Participants learn how SEP24 enables interoperability across different anchor services, allowing a single wallet implementation to work with multiple anchors. The session also touches on related SEPs like SEP31 (payments) and SEP30 (account recovery), and discusses the importance of standardized protocols for mass adoption of fiat-backed tokens on Stellar.
