Stellar (STR at the time, now XLM) was my one of my first crypto investments back in 2014. I had to buy BTC @ $500 to be able to trade for Stellar. Back then you could get 5K STR just for creating an address! Great to see it coming back to life. The tech is excellent.

Whatever your decentralized, borderless, neutral, censorship-resistant open blockchain question is, the answer is YES… to Crypto!

I forgot about that! It seems like an eternity since then.

The tech is so much better than most other platforms. Near instant transactions, almost non-existent fees. I was heavily into Stellar and HBAR for years and moving to ETH was rough. Every transaction felt like buying a horse to ride to a telegraph station and then killing the horse and buying another one for the next transaction. Like a century behind XLM and HBAR tech.

Most of my Coinbase credit card rewards were in XLM for years since they would give 4% instead of 0.5% like they gave for Bitcoin or ETH
