RWA growth on @StellarOrg has been amazing to see over the past year. Started the year around $1B and looking to hit $5B any day now.
The real-world asset (RWA) market is becoming increasingly diversified across blockchains. Ethereum remains the dominant network, accounting for more than 40% of RWA market cap, but its share has fallen nearly 30 percentage points over the past year. Solana, BNB Chain, Stellar and Avalanche are among the networks gaining ground as tokenization expands beyond Ethereum. H/t @cryptounfolded

The US repo market accounts for more than $12 trillions in average daily exposures. This is bigger than you think. And it's happening on Stellar.

Confidential Token is designed for regulated finance: amounts and balances stay private, parties stay visible. Compliance oversight applies where the rules require it and selective disclosure lets a holder prove a single fact to a third party. Start testing audited contracts ↓ openzeppelin.com/news/openze…

Another step forward for US Treasury exposure onchain. $deJTRSY is among the first markets supporting limit orders on @spectra_finance. The possibilities for tokenized assets on @StellarOrg continue to expand.
Incentivized limit orders now live on Spectra @StellarOrg, backed by @GamiLabs → app.spectra.finance/limit-or… Orders in range collect rewards until filled. First markets: $deJTRSY - a token providing exposure to Janus Henderson’s tokenized Treasury fund, powered by @centrifuge ↓

Today, SDF joined @hedera, @AptosLabs, @AvaLabs, @Cardano_CF, and @chainlink in a letter to the SEC on the proposed Regulation Crypto Assets. The ask: make the 2026 Interpretation’s “digital commodity” classification into regulation. Durable rules begin with today’s clarity.

Ecosystem builders. One meeting with Brazilian founders, four companies funded, US$ 497,090 for the Stellar community. A meeting brought Brazilian founders together with @BuildOnStellar Development Foundation and the Stellar Community Fund. Rivool was backed by the fund in round #37; we wanted more founders to see what this ecosystem can do. Since then: BWB, @PodsFinance, @chainlesscripto and @infinitybase_, awarded by the @BuildOnStellar Community Fund in rounds #44 and #45.

Seed phrases are where most people give up on crypto. We're building Nido, an open-source smart account wallet for @BuildOnStellar that you open with Face ID or a fingerprint. Every signature is verified on-chain, and you decide how your account works: set spending limits, give dApps scoped permissions, and choose guardians who can help you recover access if you lose your device. We're launching the Nido alpha at @StellarOrg Meridian. Come find us and create your account on the spot! Already available on Testnet: nido.fyi/ #Stellar #Meridian #Passkeys #SmartAccounts
