Oh, Stellar (XLM), always keeping XRP on its toes, has decided to make a power move into the on-off ramping business. How, you ask? With a shiny new API called MoneyGram Ramps, developed in cahoots with global payment giant MoneyGram. Because why settle for “just” blockchain payments when you can also throw a cash-to-crypto party? 🥳
In an official tweet (because of course, that’s how all important announcements are made now), Stellar made it clear that this nifty API lets developers mesh cash and crypto like it’s no big deal. The best part? You don’t even need a bank account. No, seriously. It’s like they’re saying, “Banks? Who needs them?”
Cash-to-crypto just got easier.
Launched today, @MoneyGram Ramps is a developer-centric API that enables ramp integration with just a few lines of code, powered by the Stellar network. No banking integration required.

That’s right, folks. Stellar is letting users convert cash into shiny digital assets like USDC or even pull crypto out as good ol’ fashioned cash. And guess what? No bank accounts, no problem. Take that, traditional finance! 🌍
This developer-friendly API requires just a few lines of code. It’s like giving digital wallet providers a magic wand, enabling them to offer on-off ramping services in over 180 countries. Talk about global domination. 💥
But it’s not just about making life easier for developers. Stellar is on a mission to give the 1.4 billion unbanked adults across the globe a fighting chance in the digital economy. Imagine that. No more gatekeepers with their ridiculous banking systems. Stellar’s got you covered. 🙌
Now, XRP’s big thing has been cross-border settlements, mostly for the big boys (financial institutions, yada yada). But Stellar’s over here saying, “Let’s give everyone a shot at the financial pie.” Plus, their blockchain is low-cost, lightning-fast, and a lot less energy-hungry than platforms like Bitcoin. Who knew saving the planet could be this easy? 🌎⚡
Oh, and this isn’t Stellar’s first tango with MoneyGram. In 2022, they introduced USDC cash transactions. Now, they’ve gone and made it even easier for developers to hop on the cash-to-crypto bandwagon. Could XRP be shaking in its boots? 👀
