@thebu11runner If you stake your XLM on SL8 at 95% APY for one year, what is that interest paid in? Is it in XLM or something else? How does SL8 provide such a high apy to stakers? Thanks

Hey $XLM family! Hope you're doing okay and not stressing too much. I have some crazy information that could help... 👇👇 Sl8 Social now has another staking event open that allows us to earn a predetermined APY for the full term we lock for. We have until the 30th March to enter. Lock for: 90 days - 47.5% APY 180 days - 72.5% APY 360 days - 95% APY 999 days - 140% APY If you have any of these top tokens on Stellar network you can stake them in your Sl8 Social Wallet: AQUA, SHX, SSLX, ETH, XRP, BTC, USDC, VELO, yUSDC, yXLM, or XLM As well as the huge promo APY, the largest stakers will receive bonus gifts.

This @growthepie report is 18 pages worth reading. A quick summary: @Celo one year as an Ethereum L2: 14M verified users via @MiniPay. 300K+ daily active addresses tied to real phone numbers, not sybil farms. 75% of transactions are stablecoin transfers. $6.2B in monthly stablecoin volume, with $2B+ flowing through MiniPay alone Throughput is up 300%+ since 2022, and roughly half of all gas fees are now paid in stablecoins, not CELO. Security costs dropped 99.8% post-migration ($6.5M/yr to $20K). Three hardforks shipped (four if you count the L2 hardfork itself), including the first ZK fault proofs on any Ethereum L2. And now ~4,000 AI agents are registering onchain via ERC-8004, building on the same stablecoin rails Less narrative, more adoption

We asked @AlliumLabs to look at what's actually running on the Stellar network. To analyze the data onchain, verify it, and report their findings. Here’s what they found. allium.so/reports/stella…

Europe’s largest asset manager, Amundi (€2.3T AUM), has launched a $100M tokenized fund on Stellar $XLM. SAFO is a tokenized UCITS fund for corporate treasury & collateral management, restricted to Global Systemically Important Banks such as Goldman Sachs, JPMorgan, Citi, Barclays, Morgan Stanley, UBS and HSBC.

@XX_1133_1221_11 You could expand this taxi analogy to trucking. Self driving trucks have been around for several years. They just need the android/robot crews to load and unload them, and you won't need truckers anymore.

From what I’m gathering: The “robotaxi” agenda is the push to move from private vehicle ownership to none at all. With millions of autonomous robotaxis they will replace personal vehicles with corporate owned fleets (maybe they allow private ownership early on to get people on board thinking they can make money if they own a few) Slowly people will be incentivized to move towards complete reliance on robotaxis OR they will be taxed so hard on private ownership costs they will eventually have no choice. “Own” nothing OWN >< NWO

@thebu11runner @cassator Is there a limit to how much xlm you can stake? Do you need to do kyc as part of the staking process?

Not sure if you've found out yet but you can deposit your Stellar DEX tokens to Sl8 Social and enjoy the pleasure of staking them! XLM, VELO, SHX, USDC, XRP + many more assets included. I'm loving it. Which asset are you thinking of staking first? Drop your thoughts bekow👇 #Stellar $XLM

Afternoon $XLM community, Just wanted to drop in and say thanks for all the steady support you’ve been showing. We have the kind of backbone that keeps this network moving forward. The X-Ray upgrade that hit mainnet back in January is HUGE for the network. It rolled out native zero-knowledge proof tools, letting devs build some special stuff. In the long run, it’s gonna pay off big as privacy becomes non-negotiable for everyday use, and we’ll look back and see how this set us apart. Keep showing up and supporting 🚀

Blockchain transparency was designed so bad actors can't hide. It was never designed so one bank can see what another is doing on a Tuesday afternoon. That distinction matters. My latest on the real privacy conversation holding back institutional adoption. stellar.org/blog/ecosystem…

Visa added Stellar $XLM to its global stablecoin settlement platform. Stripe acquired Bridge, the infrastructure powering Visa's stablecoin cards in 100+ countries.

👀 Leverage looping on @Morpho on @Celo is printing right now Deposit stCELO → Borrow $CELO at -50.13% → Stake for stCELO → Loop At 5x leverage: ◾ Staking yield: 1.85% × 5 = 9.25% ◾ Borrow rewards: 50.13% × 4 = 200.52% in USDT ◾ Total APY: ~210% You're getting PAID to borrow. Each loop compounds the staking yield and the negative borrow rate with 86% LLTV. Incentives > utilization. This won't last forever.

@coinbureau About 0.04% of AUD stablecoins are on the XRPL, yet you ignored Stellar, which holds roughly 50% of the supply. You take money from Ripple’s marketing team and spread biased narrative to your followers. defillama.com/stablecoin/audd

@lobstr @StellarOrg If only there was a sign 🐸

Just back from Davos. Here's what stood out: Digital assets won. Financial services are blockchain's killer use case—and everyone knows it now. Tech is ready. Privacy is the gap. Institutions need assurance their data stays protected. Trust is everything. We need to prove blockchain is trustworthy—through action, not words. Keep networks open. No gatekeepers, no toll booths. Permissionless infrastructure is non-negotiable. We're already working on each of these. Excited to tackle them together as an ecosystem.
