Stellar (XLM) trades at $0.15939, down 13.7% over the past 30 days. Its market cap — supply times price — is $5.5B, the 20-largest in crypto. Over a year it is -65% (down), and it sits -82% from its all-time high. Total value locked on this chain is $229.7M, or 0.04x its market cap. On tradability, the book is thin, so incoming money moves the price easily. Taken together, the overall heat score is 16 (COLD). A higher number means more of the conditions for a rally are in place — it is not a price forecast.

Overview What is Stellar
Stellar is an open-source, decentralized network co-founded in 2014 by Jed McCaleb and Joyce Kim to facilitate the fast and low-cost transfer of value across different currencies and assets globally. Managed by the non-profit Stellar Development Foundation, the project serves as a global infrastructure that connects banks, payment systems, and individuals to expand financial access to underserved populations. Its main value proposition lies in providing a bridge between traditional money and digital networks through the use of Anchors, which are trusted entities that hold deposits and issue credits on the ledger.
The network operates using the Stellar Consensus Protocol and a Federated Byzantine Agreement, where nodes choose trusted sets of other nodes to agree on the state of the ledger. This system ensures high throughput and fast finality, where transactions are considered permanent and irreversible within seconds. Key features include a built-in distributed exchange for trading assets without intermediaries and the Soroban platform for developing smart contracts. Users can also utilize the network for tokenizing real-world assets or accessing decentralized finance services like peer-to-peer lending.
Stellar's native token, XLM, is essential for maintaining network integrity by acting as an intermediary to find efficient exchange paths and preventing spam through small transaction fees and minimum account balance requirements. Unlike many other digital assets, the network has no inflation because the community voted to disable the automatic creation of new tokens. While the project received early funding from the payments company Stripe, it is now sustained by a global community of validators and developers rather than traditional venture capital.

Turnover is slow
24-hour volume equals 1.5% of market cap. Trading is quiet, so price moves are likely to stay contained.
🏔️
Far below its all-time high
Trading -82% from its all-time high. Recovering that ground would take a substantial return of demand — and a discount this large usually has a reason worth checking.
🛠️
Development is active
86 GitHub commits in the past four weeks (via CoinGecko). Steady development work supports the project's continuity.

The chain is heavily used
Recent chain fees run about $148,146 per day. Fees stand in for real usage, and this level points to an actively used chain.

If the entire supply were circulating
Fully diluted valuation is only about 1.4x the current market cap, so there is little additional supply left to come.

Heat score Heat factor breakdown
16
Heat scoreCOLDOverall heat score
How the overall score is built: market gate 42 (applied to everything) × geometric mean of the four factors 38 (momentum, liquidity, fundamentals and supply, multiplied together) → 16. It is not a simple average: a weak market holds the whole score down, and a single weak factor drags the rest with it.
Factor breakdown (0–100; higher means more conditions are in place)
Regime (market gate)gate
42
→ The market gate is neutral. Asset-specific factors decide this one.
Momentum
36
→ The recent price trend is down. Going against it needs a reason.
Liquidity (traded volume depth)
100
→ Volume is deep enough that a move is one you could actually participate in.
Fundamentals (TVL / market cap)
8
→ Little capital is locked relative to market cap, or the asset is outside TVL coverage.
Supply lightness
69
→ Most of the supply already circulates, so unlock pressure is light.
Development activity → 86 code updates in the last four weeks; development is ongoing.
