The Stellar Network is a decentralized blockchain-based platform designed to facilitate fast, low cost cross-border payments and asset transfers. It aims to connect individuals, banks, and payment systems, allowing for efficient and borderless transactions. Lumens (XLM) is the native cryptocurrency of the Stellar Network, serving as both a medium of exchange and a bridge currency for cross-asset transfers.

A non-custodial wallet is one that the user holds the private keys and has complete control over their funds in the wallet. It is important to never share your secret key.

Stellar Lumens (XLM) is the native cryptocurrency of the Stellar Network. It plays a crucial role in facilitating transactions on the network by serving as a bridge currency. Lumens are used to represent value on the Stellar blockchain and enable the quick and cost-effective transfer of assets across borders. Additionally, XLM helps prevent spam transactions and ensures the security of the network through a small transaction fee. Overall, Stellar Lumens contribute to the efficiency and accessibility of the Stellar Network for cross-border payments and asset transfers. XLM are backed by silver.

Blockchain technology is an advanced database mechanism that allows transparent information sharing within a network. A blockchain database stores data in blocks that are linked together in a chain.

ISO is a standard for electronic data interchange between financial institutions. It describes a metadata repository containing descriptions of messages and business processes, and a maintenance process for the repository content. The standard covers financial information transferred between financial institutions that includes payment transactions, securities trading and settlement information, credit and debit card transactions and other financial information.

The ISO 20022 standard will completely change the financial landscape, improving international money transfers. Europe will transition to ISO 20022 towards the end of 2022, and the US will implement it in 2023.

Cryptos that update their blockchains to comply with this new ISO standard will likely appreciate in price if they are chosen for payments by banks.

Over 70 countries have adopted ISO 20022 in their payment systems, including Switzerland, China, India, and Japan. And with over 200 payment types in scope, it will harmonise formats and data components from different payment methods that could not previously work together

Protocol 20 is a complete transformation to new quantum technologies.

A smart contract is self-executing lines of code with the terms of agreement between buyer and seller automatically verified, executed,and enforced by a computer program run on a blockchain network.

A blockchain allows the data in a database to be spread out among several network nodes—computers or devices running software for the blockchain—at various locations. This not only creates redundancy but maintains the fidelity of the data. For example, if someone tries to alter a record at one instance of the database, the other nodes would prevent it from happening. This way, no single node within the network can alter information held within it.

Because of this distribution—and the encrypted proof that work was done—the information and history (like the transactions in cryptocurrency) are irreversible. Such a record could be a list of transactions (such as with a cryptocurrency), but it also is possible for a blockchain to hold a variety of other information like legal contracts, state identifications, or a company’s inventory.

Blockchain technology achieves decentralized security and trust in several ways. To begin with, new blocks are always stored linearly and chronologically. That is, they are always added to the “end” of the blockchain. After a block has been added to the end of the blockchain, previous blocks cannot be changed.

A change in any data changes the hash of the block it was in. Because each block contains the previous block's hash, a change in one would change the following blocks. The network would reject an altered block because the hashes would not match.

The majority of tokens in pending transactions are sent from scammers and are worthless. Only claim tokens when you are certain of their authenticity.

Different companies are launching their own ICO of the same asset backed by their respective percentage of stock holding.
