I'm a big fan of Stellar. It looks like the only cryptocurrency with an actual use case that works today and minimises costs for companies[1][2] building on top of it. Everything else looks like mostly hype driven. I would say that this is one of the reasons it trades so different from everything else, except Ripple.
As many developers hang out here I want to point out that the Stellar Foundation has a rolling competition for developers: https://www.stellar.org/lumens/build/ https://www.stellar.org/lumens/build/. You can see here all the projects submitted to the last round: https://galactictalk.org/t/sbc2017april https://galactictalk.org/t/sbc2017april

- StavrosK 9y agoIs that the thing Stripe (or someone) launched years ago? The one where they were giving 50 coins free per subscriber?
- bkolobara 9y agoYes, Stripe invested into Stellar. https://stripe.com/blog/stellar https://stripe.com/blog/stellar
- andreasklinger 9y agoSemi-related question: I got some of those ICO coins back then - i registered with username/password back then Still have username/password but i am unsure where to actually login? Anyone familiar w/ Stellar knows how to get to the account?
- sensecall 9y agoI just went through the same process – had some coins from the ICO a couple of years ago. If you head to https://launch.stellar.org/#/login https://launch.stellar.org/#/login you can log in. I got a message prompting me to contact Support, which I've done and now awaiting a reply.
- StavrosK 9y agoSame here, it asked me for a confirmation code over email, but I received nothing, so I'm waiting for Support.
- jvannistelrooy 9y agoCould you help me to put your opinion in the right context by answering a few questions? - Do you own Stellar Lumens? - Are you involved in any Stellar related projects?
- bkolobara 9y agoI won Lumens in the previous build challenges, run a community forum and are building a company that uses the Stellar network. I'm not trying to give investment advice in my post. You should definitely not be buying Lumens if you don't need them. Most of them are going to be given away: https://www.stellar.org/about/mandate/ https://www.stellar.org/about/mandate/
- jvannistelrooy 9y agoThanks, I appreciate your openness.
