Network
A foundation of network reliability
Fast finality, trusted validators, and native asset controls.
Finality in seconds
Ledgers close in ~5 seconds, and their transactions are final when they do.
A protocol built on trust
The Stellar Consensus Protocol reaches agreement through trusted validators, not mining or staking.
Native asset controls
Authorization, freeze, and clawback controls are set by the issuer and follow the asset. No contracts required.

Primitives
Built-in primitives, extendable contracts
Get started faster with primitives that are built into the protocol. Extend them with smart contracts.
Tokens
Stellar Classic assets with native issuer controls. Audited implementations for stablecoins, RWAs, vaults and custom tokens.
Accounts and auth
Native multisig, plus smart contracts for passkeys, smart wallets, session keys, delegated authorization and spending limits.
Transactions
Path payments convert assets along the way. Fee sponsorship and sponsored reserves are native capabilities, with smart contract calls for additional logic.
Privacy
Protocol-level cryptographic primitives, plus developer previews for Confidential Tokens and Stellar Private Payments.

Ramps
Reach more local markets with every build
Open-access ramps connect your app to cash, bank transfers, and local payment methods.

Etherfuse
Tokenized sovereign bonds and USD to MXN

MoneyGram
Cash to USDC and back at retail locations

Ramp Network
Card and bank ramps in 150+ countries

Bitso
Local payments and LatAm stablecoins

Manteca
Ramp and payment APIs across Latin America

Koywe
Ramps across five Latin American markets
Build less, deploy around the world
Integrate with local ramp providers to reach users in new markets without building from scratch.
Settle in local currency
Path payments can convert assets in transit, so senders and recipients can use different currencies.
Tooling
Tools for developers and agents
Build, test, and deploy with the Stellar CLI, JavaScript and Rust SDKs. Put your agent to work with MCP and skills. Reach network data with Stellar RPC.
Stellar CLI
Deploy contracts, issue assets and manage accounts from the terminal.
SDKs
JavaScript, Go and Rust maintained by SDF; Python, Java, Kotlin, .NET, PHP, iOS and Flutter from the community.
MCP and skills
Stellar Raven gives agents Stellar docs, live ecosystem data and playbooks; prebuilt skills cover contracts, wallets, assets and payments.
x402
Agent payments over HTTP, so your agent can pay for what it uses.

Ecosystem
A complete financial ecosystem
Assets with real world utility
Choose from stablecoins and local- and U.S. dollar-denominated permissionless RWAs.
Liquidity options
Access liquidity on Stellar and across other networks through DEXs, AMMs, and aggregators.

- Liquidity
Assets, markets and liquidity form a loop around your app: assets are deposited as collateral in markets, markets are priced and exited through liquidity venues, and liquidity makes assets convertible and usable.
