Stellar (XLM)

MoneyGram x Fireblocks x Stellar — Real-World Stablecoin Adoption Is Scaling Globally For three years, @MoneyGram and @StellarOrg have been operating one of the largest live stablecoin payment systems on the planet. Not a pilot. Not a sandbox. Not a future promise. LIVE. GLOBAL. USED BY MILLIONS. Stellar powers the real USDC settlement rails behind it. MoneyGram’s global footprint: → 50M+ customers annually → 200+ countries & territories → 20,000 payment corridors → 500,000+ retail locations → Billions of digital endpoints This is not crypto adoption. This is global financial infrastructure in production. Now comes the next evolution: MoneyGram has partnered with Fireblocks, the #1 institutional digital asset infrastructure provider. This unlocks: • programmable stablecoin flows • real-time multi-chain settlement • global treasury automation • secure institutional rails • scalable liquidity pipelines Not an upgrade. A supercharge. Fireblocks gives MoneyGram the ability to: → move value across chains in real time → automate global settlement → reduce capital requirements → manage liquidity programmatically → connect to institutional partners at scale → settle stablecoin payments instantly This is payment plumbing meets programmable money. What does this mean for Stellar (XLM)? A LOT more than people realize. Stellar continues to serve as: • a core $USDC settlement rail • one of the fastest & cheapest versions of USDC • an established on/off-ramp network • critical infrastructure for emerging markets • a proven payment backbone with real flows Fireblocks doesn’t replace Stellar — Fireblocks amplifies Stellar. Now add the missing piece: Fireblocks ↔ Soroban (Stellar’s smart contract layer) Yes — this integration is REAL. There is a public Fireblocks GitHub repo: stellar-soroban-fireblocks-app Updated 3 months ago. This allows institutions to: → interact with Soroban smart contracts → sign transactions via Fireblocks custody → bridge institutional wallets to on-chain programmability → run secure programmable settlement flows This is next-level institutional readiness. Put the pieces together: MoneyGram = global consumer network Stellar = real-time settlement layer Soroban = programmable financial logic Fireblocks = institutional-grade security + multi-chain rails This combination doesn’t exist anywhere else in crypto. No other ecosystem has: • live global users • institutional connectivity • regulated custody • real-time stablecoin flows • smart-contract programmability —all working today. This is NOT about hyping blockchain. This is about modernizing global finance. Stellar has been quietly powering real-world utility for years. Now Fireblocks adds: • institutional scale • programmability • liquidity automation • multi-chain flexibility Together they turn stablecoins into a true global payments rail. Bottom Line MoneyGram didn’t choose Stellar because of hype. They chose Stellar because it works. Now with Fireblocks — and with Soroban integration already active — this ecosystem is positioned to scale from millions to tens of millions more. This is real-world crypto adoption. Not a roadmap. Not a promise. Happening right now.

Real-World Stablecoin Infrastructure is converging. Australia’s AUDD is scaling globally — powered by partners like @StellarOrg, @FireblocksHQ, and @hedera, all aligned on interoperability, security, and institutional‑grade trust. This is how the next generation of digital finance becomes reality: multi‑chain rails, one global standard for real utility. Stellar → Retail & Financial Inclusion MoneyGram, UNDP, global remittances, emerging markets, compliant on/off‑ramps, USDC treasury flows. Hedera → Institutional Infrastructure AUDD (regulator‑backed), Project Acacia, enterprise networks, government pilots, real‑time settlement finality. Fireblocks → Institutional Treasury + Multi‑Chain Settlement Programmable payments, global liquidity routing, secure custody, and bridging enterprise‑grade stablecoin flows across chains.
