Cardano Founder Highlights Stellar’s Potential Amid Strong Rally and Blockchain Payments Shift

Key Points

1. Stellar (XLM) surged above $0.45, reversing months of underperformance against XRP, indicating a potential shift in market momentum.

2. Hedera (HBAR) broke out from a prolonged trading range, rising from below $0.16 to over $0.25, reflecting sector-wide rotation toward blockchain payment solutions with tangible use cases.

3. Cardano founder Charles Hoskinson commended Stellar and Hedera for their focus on verifiable computing and tokenized real-world assets (RWA), which could elevate HBAR's market position.

4. The rallies in XLM and HBAR are partly fueled by speculation around XRP ETF announcements, but their utility and progress are key drivers of investor confidence.

5. Stellar and Hedera's momentum suggests they may challenge incumbents like XRP, with ongoing developments in RWA infrastructure and partnerships strengthening their market position.
