Stellar Adds Rand-Pegged ZARC Coin, Boosting African Payment Access

I see the listing of ZARC Coin — a rand-pegged digital asset — on the Stellar network as a practical step toward expanding fiat corridors into Africa. It strengthens Stellar's role as a low-cost rails provider for cross-border payments, especially for South African remittances.

I expect this to modestly increase on-chain activity and utility for XLM, though the impact on price will depend on adoption, liquidity of ZARC, and regulatory clarity in the region.
