Stellar just schooled the crypto market—while legacy finance snoozed.

XLM Outpaces the Pack

Stellar's 12.3% surge isn't just a green candle—it's a middle finger to sideways trading. The CoinDesk 20 Index caught the updraft, proving once again that altcoins move faster than institutional paperwork.

Why This Isn't Just Hype

Forget 'stablecoins are boring'—XLM's leap hints at real-world adoption simmering under the surface. Meanwhile, traditional banks still can't decide if blockchain is a threat or a buzzword for their next PowerPoint.

The Bottom Line

Crypto doesn't wait for consensus. While analysts debate 'sustainable growth,' Stellar's price action screams 'catch up or get rekt.' Classic finance response? Probably another committee meeting.
