We sat down with Stellar to break down the thinking behind Rails’ institutional-grade vault infrastructure. From liquidity ownership to fund separation and more. New episode of Off the Rails with Satraj, Rick Marini, and cem 👇 Watch the full podcast below.

@StellarOrg @sat_bam_ @rmarini @cemarcann Super insightful podcast!

Hi @sat_bam_ I think like that Strong breakdown. What stands out is the institutional-grade vault architecture paired with hybrid perpetuals — especially the separation of custody, liquidity ownership, and execution risk. Bridging CEX efficiency with DeFi transparency has been the missing layer for serious capital. If Rails delivers compliant, onchain-native fund segregation with real liquidity depth, that’s a meaningful unlock for institutions. The infrastructure layer is finally maturing.

@StellarOrg @sat_bam_ @rmarini @cemarcann Institutional-grade vault design + liquidity ownership discussion is exactly the kind of depth serious builders want to see. Strong move collaborating with Stellar Development Foundation.

@StellarOrg @sat_bam_ @rmarini 💪

@StellarOrg @sat_bam_ @rmarini @cemarcann finally someone getting into the weeds of how custody actually works instead of just saying institutional grade and calling it a day

@StellarOrg @sat_bam_ @rmarini @cemarcann finally skipping the buzzwords, about time

@StellarOrg @sat_bam_ @rmarini @cemarcann finally some meat

@StellarOrg @sat_bam_ @rmarini @cemarcann finally some real technical depth

@StellarOrg @sat_bam_ @rmarini @cemarcann finally someone addressing the actual infrastructure instead of just marketing fluff

@StellarOrg @sat_bam_ @rmarini @cemarcann finally, real infra talk

@StellarOrg @sat_bam_ @rmarini @cemarcann finally some meat

@StellarOrg @sat_bam_ @rmarini @cemarcann finally some actual tech talk here

@StellarOrg @sat_bam_ @rmarini @cemarcann the custody details matter

@StellarOrg @sat_bam_ @rmarini @cemarcann custody is the hurdle

@StellarOrg @sat_bam_ @rmarini @cemarcann finally some feal technical talk lol

@StellarOrg @sat_bam_ @rmarini @cemarcann finally someone askibg the rezl questions

@StellarOrg @sat_bam_ @rmarini @cemarcann The custody gap is real

@StellarOrg @sat_bam_ @rmarini @cemarcann finally some actual tech talk instead of just jargon

@StellarOrg @sat_bam_ @rmarini @cemarcann stellar finally getting some flowers for the plumbing, about time

@StellarOrg @sat_bam_ @rmarini @cemarcann Key question is custody

@StellarOrg @sat_bam_ @rmarini @cemarcann finally someone skipped the marketing fluff

@StellarOrg @sat_bam_ @rmarini @cemarcann show us the code

@StellarOrg @sat_bam_ @rmarini @cemarcann the fund separation part is key, lot of projects skip that then wonder why audits fail

@StellarOrg @sat_bam_ @rmarini @cemarcann finally some actual substance

@StellarOrg @sat_bam_ @rmarini @cemarcann custody model needs more detail

@StellarOrg @sat_bam_ @rmarini @cemarcann finally some substance here

Hi Rails team, RAILS/USD on Kraken is doing about $1k/day. Thin books can widen spreads and make it harder for traders to enter or exit comfortably. VolumeMaker is self-hosted market-making software with a one-time licence, no monthly rent. It can help your team increase visible pair volume, add consistent depth, and keep spreads attractive for traders. Open to a short audit of the pair? Open to a quick demo call?

@StellarOrg @sat_bam_ @rmarini @cemarcann stellar's been around forever but this vault infra with actual fund separation and liquidity ownership might be the real unlock, curious how the compliance layers hold up under real audit pressure

@StellarOrg @sat_bam_ @rmarini @cemarcann who holds keys

@StellarOrg @sat_bam_ @rmarini @cemarcann the custody question is still thd elephant

@StellarOrg @sat_bam_ @rmarini @cemarcann How does the fund separation handle edge cases like a settlement failure

@StellarOrg @sat_bam_ @rmarini @cemarcann institutional grade is a vibe
