🧵 Stellar is taking off big time! SwissCustody just dropped the news about the first-ever $XLM Treasury with 1 billion XLM – a massive move for more liquidity, innovation, and growth in the Stellar ecosystem. Why’s this such a big deal? Let me break it down! 👇 What’s this XLM Treasury about? It’s a pool of 1 billion $XLM set up for three huge goals: • Boosting liquidity for institutions • Funding long-term development • Supporting real-world use cases on Stellar This isn’t just hype – it’s a rock-solid foundation for the future!
