VANK is a multicurrency B2B payments platform for US-LatAm cross-border trade, processing over $115M in TPV across 40 enterprise clients. The company is building VANK Anchor: a Stellar-native USDC-COP on/off ramp for Colombia enabling COP deposits via PSE and USDC delivery to partner Stellar accounts (on-ramp), and USDC-to-COP disbursements via ACH/bank transfer with OFAC/PEP compliance screening (off-ramp), implemented via SEP-24, SEP-6, SEP-38, SEP-10, and SEP-1.

Decentralized commodity trade finance platform that generates on-chain yield from asset-backed commodity financing trades. Pipeline targets the ~$2.5 trillion trade finance gap — widened by Basel III regulatory changes that made short-duration commodity-backed lending to mid-market traders uneconomic for banks — by providing institutional-grade rails for digital asset investors to access high, asset-backed yield with short duration (30–180 days). Built on Soroban/Stellar with institutional custody (BitGo), KYC/AML screening, and a 3-of-5 Risk Council multisig governance structure.

Lend is building compliant infrastructure for tokenized real estate on-chain, connecting global digital capital with high-yielding real estate operations through legally structured, asset-backed tokens. Users can invest stablecoins into professionally originated deals targeting 8–15% APR, with programmable yield distribution and secondary market liquidity. By integrating with Stellar, Lend leverages its fast, low-cost settlement layer to issue and manage tokenized real estate assets efficiently, enabling DeFi composability, cross-border access, and scalable compliance.

Stellar Quickstart is an official SDF Docker image that runs a complete local Stellar development environment, bundling Stellar Core, Horizon, and RPC in local, testnet, and futurenet modes. It includes a Friendbot faucet at :8000/friendbot to fund new testnet or local accounts with test XLM, letting builders develop against a private network or testnet without external services. It is integrated with the Stellar CLI for starting and stopping containers.

The Stellar CLI is the official command-line tool for Stellar/Soroban developers. `stellar keys generate <name> --fund` generates a keypair and funds it with test XLM via Friendbot (the testnet faucet, ~10,000 XLM) — the fastest way to fund a testnet account. It also deploys and invokes contracts, starts local testnets, and manages keys, accounts, and XDR.

Friendbot is Stellar's official testnet faucet: an SDF-hosted bot that funds new accounts and Soroban contracts with 10,000 fake test XLM (lumens) so developers can get started. It works via a simple HTTP GET to friendbot.stellar.org on Testnet (friendbot-futurenet.stellar.org on Futurenet) and is the canonical way to fund a testnet account.

Hubble is SDF's open-source, read-only BigQuery data warehouse providing a complete historical record of the Stellar network for large-scale analytics.
