Do You Know Why Stellar Was Chosen By DTCC? Many reasons… but “Soroban” smart contracts made stellar 100x more powerful and most people still don’t get it. Imagine Stellar was already the fastest, cheapest way to send money anywhere. Now picture this: Soroban is Stellar’s new “smart contract” superpower. • Soroban smart contracts is like giving Stellar a super-smart brain written in Rust (a pro language) that turns into WebAssembly (super efficient code). It runs programs on the blockchain that can: • Automatically handle money (like lending, trading, or creating tokens) • Finish in 3-5 seconds • Cost basically nothing (~$0.00001 per transaction) • Handle tons of stuff at the same time without clogging up No gas fees drama. No waiting hours. Just smooth, real-world usable magic. Soroban turns Stellar from “great for payments” into a full DeFi beast that can scale to billions of people. This is just the beginning. Utility season is incoming🔥

"As you realized, there was no money lost. And this is by design." Kostas Chalkias (Kostas Kryptos) is co-founder and Chief Cryptographer of Mysten Labs, the team behind Sui. When the network halted, he was in the war room. This is his breakdown of what actually happened. "The ideal option is to halt, compared to just losing money if something else happens." We cover: — Why halting the network was a deliberate design choice, not a failure — What was really going on behind the scenes while crypto Twitter panicked — The global war room: 50+ people across Europe and the US working through the night — Why a decentralized network recovers differently than one company flipping a switch — "Move fast and break things", why the Facebook motto is exactly wrong for money — Why Kostas believes most other blockchains wouldn't have recovered in days — Where the line sits between an honest edge case and a broken system — What the outage proved about how Sui is actually built Thanks to Kostas for coming on New Era Finance Podcast. Highlights: 00:00 — Intro 00:43 — What Happened During The Outage 03:45 — Why Halting Was The Right Call 05:30 — Inside The War Room 08:00 — Why Decentralized Recovery Takes Longer 11:00 — The Lessons That Made Sui Stronger 14:30 — Why AI Agents Are The Real Users Of Crypto 19:00 — Free Stablecoin Payments vs Bank Fees 23:00 — Own And Monetize Your Own Data 27:00 — Why A Fast Layer-1 Changes Everything
