Stellar (XLM) Surges 2.1% as CoinDesk 20 Index Climbs – Here’s Why It Matters

Stellar (XLM) outpaces the pack with a 2.1% rally, propping up the CoinDesk 20 Index in a market that’s still deciding if it’s bullish or just bored.

### The Quiet Outperformer

While Bitcoin hogged headlines with its usual drama, XLM quietly stacked gains—proof that even in crypto, slow and steady sometimes wins the race (or at least a participation trophy).

### The Index Effect

The CoinDesk 20’s uptick isn’t just about XLM, but let’s be real—without its push, we’d be staring at another ‘flatline Friday.’ Thanks, Stellar.

### The Punchline

Traders chasing the next moonshot might’ve missed it—this time, profits hid in plain sight. Meanwhile, Wall Street still thinks ‘blockchain’ is a new type of yoga.

Leaders: XLM (+2.1%) and HBAR (+1.8%).

Laggards: AVAX (-3.1%) and SUI (-2.8%).

The CoinDesk 20 is a broad-based index traded on multiple platforms in several regions globally.
