DeFi, payments, tokenization, Soroban, governance, and project launches — curated daily from publications, project blogs, and community channels across the Stellar blockchain ecosystem.
The Stellar Development Foundation announced three major community initiatives: Stellar Clusters for local grassroots meetups, a first global Stellar conference, and the Stellar Community Fund to let the community guide lumen distribution.

Stellar celebrated its first anniversary, growing from two cofounders to a 16-person team while launching the Stellar Consensus Protocol, building global partnerships, and establishing a thriving developer community across multiple continents.
The Stellar Consensus Protocol (SCP) introduces federated Byzantine agreement, a consensus mechanism that achieves decentralized control, low latency, flexible trust, and asymptotic security simultaneously. SCP enables a worldwide financial network where participants reach agreement without relying on centralized institutions.
