Originally launched in 2014, Stellar (XLM) was designed to facilitate low-cost, fast, and accessible cross-border payments — offering a decentralized solution to global remittance inefficiencies.
Backed by the Stellar Development Foundation, XLM became one of the earliest digital assets to prioritize real-world financial inclusion, scalability, and institutional collaboration.
Over the years, Stellar evolved into a trusted payments protocol with native support for stablecoins, tokenized assets, and financial gateways.
However, despite strong fundamentals, the original Stellar network faced ongoing limitations — including relatively slow adoption of staking systems, limited programmable contract support, and constraints on liquidity expansion across DeFi ecosystems.
Now, with the launch of ATC-20 XLM on AtlantisChain, original XLM holders can unlock the full power of a revolutionary blockchain — delivering 0.093-second finality, ultra-low fixed gas fees, and seamless compatibility with staking, AI contracts, and ultra-super-fast Web3 protocols.
ATC-20 XLM transforms one of the earliest mission-driven cryptocurrencies into a high-utility, performance-optimized digital asset — with built-in staking rewards and full compatibility across the rapidly expanding Atlantis ecosystem.
