That is an impressive rally for these utility-focused assets! The While much of the market is searching for a bottom, Hedera (HBAR) and Stellar (XLM) are showing remarkable strength. HBAR surged 6.7%, while XLM jumped 4.2%, providing a much-needed boost to the CoinDesk 20 index.
🧱 Why These Two?
Analysts at NS3.AI point toward a shift in sentiment back toward real-world utility:
HBAR’s Momentum: Hedera continues to benefit from its powerhouse Governing Council and recent updates in Enterprise Tokenization.
XLM’s Steady Climb: Stellar is gaining traction through live SWIFT trials and its role as a "liquidity bridge" for global payment networks.
💹 Index Impact
These gains helped stabilize the CoinDesk 20 index, which had been under pressure earlier in the week. As institutional interest moves from speculation to integration, protocols that offer deterministic finality and regulatory compliance are clearly taking the lead.
