‼️JUST IN: STELLAR JUST TESTED 7 MILLION PAYMENTS PER SECOND‼️
Stellar has announced Project Thruput.📈
Project Thruput is a new system built to help the Stellar network scale.⏭️
It is also built for the AI agents that will use the network in the future.🤖
In its most recent test, it processed over 7 million payments per second.🤯
Project Thruput is live on FutureNet, Stellar's test network.
FutureNet is where the Stellar Development Foundation tests new technology before it reaches the public network.🧩
Project Thruput is intended to be used on Stellar’s main network in the future.⏳
This is part of Stellar's plan to build a network that can serve 10 billion people and the billions of AI agents that will transact on their behalf.🌐
Documented.📝👇

I'm super proud to unveil and open-source Project Thruput. Our mission is to eliminate all practical blockchain scaling limits to make smart contract execution free. thruput.network/ #Blockchain #smartcontracts #Stellar

1/ We discovered something totally unexpected about the neural structure of consciousness that overturns decades of thinking on its biological basis and brings us significantly closer to the recipe for generating conscious awareness.

We have established a Lunar Programs division.
By leveraging our commercial space station and satellite development capabilities, we are creating a scalable path toward lunar infrastructure to advance NASA’s vision for a permanent Moon Base. vast.news/4d1qWL9

Next year, we're going to launch a spacecraft that will be given zero commands from Earth after it separates from the launch vehicle.
The spacecraft will attempt to complete all of its mission objectives with no human operator in the loop.
Today we’re introducing Autonomy-1, powered by our spacecraft intelligence model, Solo. 🧵

Today, Pioneer Labs is announcing our first step towards terraforming Mars. 🚀🌼
With equipment that fits in just a single rocket launch, we can convert Martian dirt, water, and air into enough building materials to construct a small city on Mars.
To do it, we made the first microbe for Mars. We found the best microbe on Earth and used evolution to teach it how to source all of its nutrients directly from Martian materials.
The first astronauts will be greeted with safe shelter already filled with water, oxygen, and rocket fuel for the return journey.
This is the first step toward using biology to make Mars a friendly place for life. It lets us live off the land and helps us build the next great frontier.
It's the first of five organisms we need to green Mars ⬇️

There's a race to get the first commercial space station up in orbit. Boosted by an original $1 billion investment from @JedMcCaleb, @vast has been sprinting to get to space first.
We went to Long Beach to check out Vast's Haven-1 space station that could fly next year and to see what a more modern space station looks like.
Enjoy!!

We recently launched an essay competition for which scientists described structural problems they run into. With nearly 200 submissions, we decided to give out 8 awards, instead of 3. A quick summary here 👇 1 / 5

The ISS is old AF. But, thankfully, we have replacements on the way in the form of commercial space stations.
We recently went to @vast to see the progress they are making on the Haven-1, which should fly next year. It will have room for four people and science labs and is a much more modern twist on space life.
We saw their manufacturing operations, food R&D program, and I learned how to pass gas in orbit.

The greatest chapter in space exploration since the original Apollo lunar missions is underway — and California is writing it.
With Golden State aerospace companies like @Vast bringing about cutting-edge commercial space technology, the future looks bright.

Big news, and I'm on 🧵 for the second time in as many weeks,
Last week, @StellarOrg and @The_DTCC announced a partnership to bring tokenized securities settlement to Wall Street.
Today, @MoneyGram launched MGUSD - their own dollar-backed stablecoin - built on Stellar. MGUSD is issued by @stripe 's Bridge, with smart contracts from @m0 and wallet infrastructure from @FireblocksHQ. It is live in the US today, rolling out globally to 60 million customers across 200 countries and 500,000 retail locations.

Trust and reliable infrastructure are the foundation of our five-year partnership with @MoneyGram.
Today, MoneyGram is launching MGUSD, a native U.S. dollar stablecoin built on the strength of that foundation 💪🏻

Stellar continues to be one of best blockchains for real world use.
DTCC and the Stellar Development Foundation announced today plans to enable the tokenization of DTC‑custodied assets on the @StellarOrg network. This collaboration advances DTCC’s multi chain strategy and expands how traditional assets move across digital ecosystems.
DTC‑tokenized assets are expected to be made available on the Stellar network in the first half of 2027, supporting the evolution of a more open, interoperable, and efficient financial ecosystem.

Today, @The_DTCC and SDF are announcing plans to enable the tokenization of DTC-custodied assets on Stellar.
The connection supports the rapid conversion of traditional assets into tokenized form, and the full asset lifecycle, including corporate actions and reporting.
