Who created Stellar(XLM)?

Stellar is an open-source, peer-to-peer network that came in 2014, and the most significant update came in 2015, which was the game-changing movement for Stellar. The network was founded by the current chief architect Jed McCaleb when he left Ripple and former lawyer Joyce Kim.

How does Stellar work?

Stellar is the same as other decentralized payment technology. However, the network runs on a decentralized server with distributed ledger technology that updates nodes every 3 to 5 seconds. The main difference between Stellar and Bitcoin is the named consensus protocol.

 

The consensus protocol of Stellar does not rely on the whole miner network to approve the transaction. Instead, it uses the FBA(Federated Byzantine Agreement) algorithm, which helps make the transaction faster because it uses the network portion to validate and approve the transaction.

 

The nodes of the Stellar network select another set of network nodes. In the collection, once the nodes approve all the transactions in the group, it is considered to be approved. As a result, the Stellar network is high-speed and completes 1000 network operations in a second.
