🚨Stellar $XLM changed everything🚨 Franklin Templeton ran 50,000 transactions that cost $75,000 on legacy rails. On Stellar? $1.13. Read that again. Seventy-five thousand dollars down to one dollar That's not an upgrade That's a revolution in cost

lets get some things clear for everyone here XLM (Stellar): It utilizes a 'Pathfinding' algorithm when executing cross-border transfers. For instance, if you want to send money from Japan to Mexico and the system cannot find a direct JPY-MXN pool, it searches for a chained conversion route like JPY -> USD -> XLM -> EUR -> MXN. While this architecture is excellent for retail and small-scale remittances or micro-payments, if you attempt to route billions of dollars in institutional cross-border settlements through these hop-by-hop pools, it creates massive slippage. The infrastructure simply lacks the capacity to absorb and contain that level of slippage. XRP (Ripple): It is purpose built directly as a "Bridge Asset" It aims to settle direct corridors between central banks and massive investment banks (e.g., USD/XRP/EUR) in a single step, backed by monumental liquidity depth. The "structural, vertical price appreciation necessity" that David Schwartz consistently emphasizes is precisely what allows XRP to absorb these massive institutional blocks in one piece without any slippage.

Good breakdown. I actually think both can win because they're solving different problems.

The real tell here is the fact that the fees on Stellar were "$1.13". The numbers 13 and 33 are their code. Pay attention to those numbers as they light the path of the future! XRP, XLM holders you were chosen to hold these assets.

The $1.13 is impressive enough on its own.

infrastructure at work

And it's only getting started.

That’s a huge difference

And that's only one use case.

At this point, how is $XLM not over $2!?

Very soon!

and on $xpr its 0

Lower costs and better rails benefit everyone.

Crypto transactions are the only way forward for banking The old systems must fall.

The biggest shift is when banks start using the tech instead of fighting it.

Good for companies, not good for token value for holders. 1 lumen needed for 100,000 transactions. Les than 1 $xlm to create a trustline. Companies wont need to hold much xlm

I believe so too wanna get more xlm at this price xlm will surprise many 👀💎🚀🚀🚀🚀🚀🚀💪💪💪💪 @thebu11runner

@thebu11runner Love seeing more people looking at utility instead of just price. That's where the real story is.

now do XRP?

Yep. But xlm fees are anemic. Not supporting token price

Fair point. I think the bigger question is whether adoption eventually matters more than fees alone.

Wen wundert es, das die Banken cryptogesetze bekämpfen😬

That is crazy.

It really is. That's why I think most people still haven't wrapped their heads around the scale of this.

This is a huge cost saving.

@InsideHedera Exactly. Saving money at that scale changes how institutions think about moving value.

@CarlsDenni1191 💥 BOOM 💥

@CarlsDenni1191 The utility story is starting to get louder.

@CarlsDenni1191 🤝

On XRP 0.01

@thelookoutman_ Love seeing innovation push costs toward zero. Users win when networks keep raising the bar.

Wowwww.. just $1.13?? That’s awesome!! 👏

And we're still early. Most people have no idea how much this could change finance.

It’s complete revamp/ovethaul of the entire legacy financial system which does take time. This revolution would be worth the wait!! Millionaires/Billionaires would be made who are willing to wait. This would go down in the history books in the times to come!!

And Stellar @StellarOrg #XLM is my 2nd largest holding after #XRP... and I hold a little of both. IYKYK....

@StellarOrg Holding both tells me you're paying attention to utility, not just narratives.

@StellarOrg A lot of both I meant... lol

Phenomenal!....those 3rd party agents "Game Over!"

🔥

@mitchellvii doesn’t believe in this 😂

@mitchellvii Time has a funny way of changing minds.

Hard to unsee it once you see the numbers.

And the price of XLM never moved once they are not using the token in the slightest context

Plenty to unpack there

the math isn't exactly correct lol, but still bullish for stellar:native

@realHeyoWhatUp The bigger point is what Stellar can do at scale.

🙏🙏

Appreciate that🤝

How much liquidity is gonna come from implementation of this technology just through savings alone.

I think the savings are just the entry point. The real liquidity comes when institutions move assets that never made sense on legacy rails.

Bring on the wave 🌊

On XRP it would have cost .00069!

Exactly. That's why I don't see XRP and XLM as enemies. The bigger story is what blockchain does to legacy finance.

Around the 2:15 Sandy talks about her AHAAh moment... This is a type of example should should use to showcase its potential ... @Community_FIare

How do these companies make money if the transaction fees are practically nothing?

Waiting

The waiting room is getting crowded.

Twist and turns

Plenty of twists so far. I'm still here for the finale 👀

That cost savings for Stellar is wild. We're seeing nearly flat price action over the last hour, but volume is picking up a bit with taker buys around 49%. Interesting to see if that efficiency translates to more market interest.

Exactly. Going from $75k to basically $1 isn't just cheaper, it's a completely different game.

So they don't need the price to be high

@grok how many transactions does Franklin Templeton do a year like this?
