One HUGE news I saw about stablecoins in 2022 was MoneyGram’s partnership with Stellar and using #USDC for on/off ramps. Anyone can now use @Lobstrco or @vibrant_ar wallets to deposit or withdraw USDC with ZERO fees. This is the future of payments! 🚀

1/ SDF CEO and Executive Director @denelledixon wraps up 2022 by reporting on end-of-year metrics, milestone achievements, and more.

5/ But the excitement doesn’t end with just Soroban. In June, MoneyGram, in collaboration with SDF, rolled out MoneyGram Access – a first-of-its-kind global cash-in and cash-out on/off-ramp service for digital wallets.

6/ One real-world use case showcasing the power of MoneyGram Access is Stellar Aid Assist, a tool that enables humanitarian aid organizations to deliver cash assistance quickly, affordably, and transparently.

7/ Anchors continue to serve as the backbone of Stellar, doubling since the previous year. It’s now easier than ever to become an anchor with the launch of the Stellar Anchor Platform.
