Stellar Gains Utility as Rand‑Pegged ZARC Joins Network

I view the ZARC coin launch on the Stellar network as a constructive development for XLM’s real-world payments narrative. A rand‑pegged asset can increase on‑chain volume and usage in African payment corridors, which supports Stellar’s value proposition.

That said, immediate price appreciation is uncertain — success depends on ZARC’s liquidity, custodial and regulatory setup, and merchant/institutional adoption. I’ll be monitoring transaction flow and exchange listings for signs of meaningful uptake.
