We’re excited to share @PayPal is bringing its stablecoin, PYUSD, to Stellar.
When you need infrastructure that works beyond the hype—real payments, real merchants, real global reach—you build where millions already transact daily.

"Web3 user experience doesn't have to suck!"
That's what @StellarOrg challenged our gigabrains to prove at our EasyA @consensus2025 Hackathon 💫
And wow, did they do just that. All thanks to the incredible Stellar mentors and their tech 🧑💻
Check out what these gigabrains decided to @BuildOnStellar 👀👇
I highly recommend this program, it's a great opportunity to learn from industry experts, founders and investors. I've been involved as a mentor, helping awesome founders build on Stellar.

The guys from @PaltaLabs were savages on the track! Great race!
Looking forward to a great day at Consensus. Our Hackathon lounge is really nice. #Stellar
Great Day 1 at the Builder Summit - I had the pleasure of giving the first presentation on the stage.
Day 1 of the Toronto Builder Summit is just wrapping up, always great to see the Stellar ecosystem in person! 🔥
Gearing up for a full week of hacking & workshops with the Stellar ecosystem alongside @consensus2025

@StellarOrg @BuildOnStellar
In the "good old days" you could thrive by having the best tech. Today it's more about how great a community do you have. When I look at tech companies today, I look at their community first, and their tech stack second.
I’m super proud of the teams I’m mentoring in this current @draper_u x @StellarOrg Embark program - solving real-world problems using the Stellar blockchain. They all nailed it at the event in SF last week! @TrustlessWork @spnf_official #HazelTrade

All ledger entries on Testnet will be cleared by resets, so take the necessary precautions before and after a reset.
Talking about building smart contracts on Stellar at HackMeridian in London. Can’t wait to see what everyone is building.
