Stellar adoption expands, $3B+ RWA, XLM volatility
Overview
Since the summer rally that lifted XLM to about $0.30 and its subsequent slide to roughly $0.18, Stellar’s on‑chain real‑world‑asset (RWA) volume has stayed above $3 billion, keeping the network the second‑largest RWA platform after Ethereum. Stablecoin supply grew 38 % to $967 million and monthly transaction volume reached $6.45 billion.
June 2026 added several catalysts. Zebec launched a global payroll solution on Stellar, allowing salary payments in stablecoins via Mastercard‑linked cards; the news sparked a 22 % one‑day XLM surge to $0.22 and helped the token break the $0.24 resistance zone. Institutional tokenisation activity accelerated: DTCC named XLM the settlement token for its upcoming platform, MoneyGram expanded stable‑coin payments, and Franklin Templeton’s $1.9 billion BENJI money‑market fund began operating on Stellar alongside $660 million of tokenised U.S. Treasury assets. On‑chain RWA value rose to $2.2 billion and later to $3.35 billion, while developer activity and TVL jumped sharply.
July saw the Protocol 27 (“Zipper”) upgrade, driving a 303 % surge in 24‑hour trading volume to $873 million, and Tradable announced plans to move up to $1 billion of private‑credit assets onto Stellar. Daily transaction throughput hit 11.1 million on 6 August, underscoring the blockchain’s scaling capacity.
Technical charts place XLM near $0.18‑$0.19, with descending‑triangle and inverse‑head‑and‑shoulders patterns hinting at a possible breakout toward $0.25‑$0.30, even as broader crypto markets stay bearish.
