About Stellar

SCP reaches agreement through quorum slices

Stellar Consensus Protocol uses a federated Byzantine agreement model. Nodes choose the quorum slices they trust, and overlapping slices form network agreement, making validator configuration and trust relationships part of the protocol security boundary.

XLM supports accounts, fees, and network minimum balances

XLM is the native asset of the Stellar network. It pays base fees, helps satisfy account minimum balances, and can act as a bridge asset in transfers. Stellar does not issue XLM through proof-of-work mining or traditional proof-of-stake, so those issuance intuitions do not apply.

Soroban brings smart contracts to Stellar

Protocol 20 went live after a validator vote in February 2024 and introduced the Soroban smart-contract runtime to Stellar. The runtime expands application possibilities while adding contract, resource-metering, and upgrade-compatibility boundaries.

Stellar trust configuration is part of the security boundary

SCP does not require every node to know the same validator set, but nodes need sufficiently overlapping trust slices. That flexibility makes node selection, quorum intersection, and upgrade coordination operational risks that operators must manage.

Stellar FAQ

What is Stellar?

Stellar is a blockchain network focused on payments and asset issuance. It uses the Stellar Consensus Protocol, and XLM is its native asset.

Does Stellar use mining or staking?

Stellar does not use proof-of-work mining or traditional proof-of-stake to produce blocks. Nodes reach agreement through SCP federated trust relationships.

What is the smallest XLM unit?

The smallest XLM unit is a stroop. One XLM equals 10,000,000 stroops.

Does Stellar still have inflation?

The network inflation mechanism ended after a validator vote on October 28, 2019. That does not make historical supply, circulating supply, and account balances the same measure.

What is Soroban?

Soroban is Stellar smart-contract platform. It went live on mainnet with Protocol 20 and uses its own resource and contract-execution model.

What is XLM used for?

XLM pays small Stellar network fees, helps meet account reserve requirements, and can be used as a bridge asset in transfers.

Why does a Stellar account need a minimum balance?

Stellar requires an XLM reserve for an account and certain entries. The rule discourages ledger spam and can change through network governance.

What is a Stellar trustline?

A trustline is an account setting that lets it hold an issuer-created asset. It does not mean the asset is risk-free; the issuer and asset terms still matter.
