About Stellar Lumens

Stellar is a blockchain platform that is primarily focused on integrating distributed ledger technology into existing financial infrastructure. Stellar presents itself as the “future of banking,” and intends to address the gaps that currently exist between the disparate closed system that compose current international financial markets.

Stellar’s approach to creating a common international financial platform is decidedly egalitarian — instead of focusing on either side of the finance centralization/decentralization debate, Stellar adopts a bipartisan stance that simultaneously provides solutions to the centralized banking system and expands access to low-cost financial services to the unbanked and underbanked.
