STELLAR HISTORY
Stellar is an open-source, peer-to-peer digital currency network that emerged in 2015. The network was founded by current chief architect Jed McCaleb, former lawyer Joyce Kim, who has since left Stellar and current chief scientist David Mazières. The idea behind the network is to make it easier and faster for people to send different types of currencies around the world. It can also provide banking services and liquidity for people who can’t access traditional banking services.
