Stellar hits $2B milestone as Wall Street embraces blockchain settlement

The Stellar network is now processing over $2 billion in tokenized real-world assets. Major financial firms have committed substantial funds to the platform. This surge in institutional activity has placed Stellar at the centre of blockchain-based asset settlement. Several high-profile institutions have recently expanded their presence on Stellar. Franklin Templeton leads with a deployment of $657.9 million, followed by Spiko at $776.8 million. Bitbond and Circle have also invested $463.1 million and $270.1 million respectively, while Ondo has added $124.0 million to the network.

Stellar’s role as a live settlement layer for real-world assets has attracted these large-scale commitments. The network’s infrastructure now supports institutional-grade transactions, reinforcing its position in the digital asset space. Meanwhile, Stellar’s native token, XLM, is currently trading at $0.1600. The price is testing a key support level at $0.1590, with analysts noting that holding above this threshold could open a path toward $0.1700 or even $0.1750.

The growing adoption of Stellar by major financial players highlights its expanding role in tokenized asset settlement. With over $2 billion already deployed, the network’s influence in institutional finance continues to strengthen. XLM’s price movements will likely remain closely watched as trading activity evolves.
