Stellar (XLM) Shines with 17% Surge

• Stellar (XLM) remains one of the best-performing altcoins in the market today.
• Triggers for its growth are diverse but its role as a payment network stands out.

It is safe to say that Stellar (XLM) has outdone several other altcoins after a significant price surge a few days ago. Investors and enthusiasts became more confident in the token after it gained 17% in terms of its price value. This growth indicates a silver lining in the crypto market especially at this time when the ecosystem is grappling with volatility, uncertainties, and liquidity issues.

Generally, the Stellar blockchain is perceived as an outstanding technology that addresses several lapses from other blockchains. In terms of disbursement, Stellar’s technology like the Stellar Consensus Protocol and the Stellar Disbursement Platform, is able to deliver instant batch disbursement, transparency, accessibility, portability, stability, scalability, fast speed, and lost cost. So far, the Stellar blockchain has made an impact in marginalized areas.

Ultimately, the blockchain is looking to promote financial inclusion, especially to unbanked people around the world. Ukraine which was invaded last year by Russia, resorted to receiving donations for humanitarian aid, relief, militia support, and other needs.

Most of these donations were received as cryptocurrencies and Ukraine leveraged Stellar Aid Assist, an initiative by the Stellar Development Foundation (SDF) – a non-profit arm of the Stellar network to avoid misappropriation of aid.

Humanitarian organizations were using this Stellar initiative to send bulk USDC stablecoins payments to Ukrainian people who were in dire need. Some of the core benefits of the platform are that it helps such war-laden nations to navigate disaster problems and inflationary pressures.

All of this potential for Stellar has endeared it to the hearts of many individuals and organizations that are looking to enjoy efficient and inclusive financial solutions.

Contributing Factors to Stellar (XLM) Price Surge

Previously, Crypto-News Flash reported that the spontaneous growth could be attributed to the explosive usage of Stellar Ramps, a groundbreaking feature that has revolutionized the way individuals and businesses interact with the Stellar network.

Stellar Ramps can easily be described as the seamless on-ramp and off-ramp infrastructure built on top of the Stellar blockchain. They are built in such a way that they allow the conversion of traditional fiat currency into XLM.

In addition, it is worth noting that the broad crypto market has been on a positive momentum for a while now following the latest trend of spot Bitcoin (BTC) Exchange Traded Fund (ETF) filings. Even the global leading digital asset by market capitalization Bitcoin pushed above $30,000 during this rally. Another factor that has likely contributed to the XLM price surge would be the robust upgrades and advancements being made by Stellar developers.

These developers have continued to improve the scalability and efficiency of the blockchain. Consequently, this has solidified its position as a choice payment protocol. A recent introduction of an overlay protocol brought about substantial scalability improvements for Stellar and this has been a significant milestone for the blockchain.
