Stellar (XLM) is a decentralized network created in 2014 by The Stellar Development Foundation to connect financial systems and facilitate transactions. It uses its native digital currency, XLM or Lumens, as an intermediate currency and payment protocol. The platform aims to provide low-cost, quick access to financial systems and serves as a decentralized exchange and marketplace.
