This sounds like a stable currency that is well worth my time and interest

  Well, the one thing Stellar has going for it is that Stripe is on board. Though afaict Stripe is not yet integrated as a Stellar gateway. The only thing keeping Ripple alive is the fact that Bitstamp is a Ripple gateway.

  Except it's premined and centralized. It's "stable" until its creator decides to dump, like they did with Ripple.

    Dumping Stellar coins should be prevented for at least five years provided the creators adhere to the agreement described in their Mandate page: "In order to provide additional stability to the system, the nonprofit founders and Stripe have voluntarily agreed not sell any of the stellars initially received (either via employee grants in the case of the founders or via repayment of the loan) for at least five years; however, Stripe may auction any of their stellars, provided the recipients also agree not to sell their stellars for five years, and net profits are returned to the Foundation."[1] [1] https://www.stellar.org/about/mandate/#Stellar_distribution https://www.stellar.org/about/mandate/#Stellar_distribution
