Why doesn't anyone talk about @StellarOrg institutional adoption?
Because it's not designed to be loud.
Think about it:
When a protocol announces "partnerships" with every company that runs a testnet node—that's marketing.
When U.S. Bank quietly deploys stablecoin infrastructure for actual regulatory-compliant settlement—that's deployment.
One gets retail attention. The other gets institutional usage.
And here's the thing: banks don't care about your attention. They care about infrastructure that works.
Franklin Templeton didn't issue $400M+ in tokenized securities on Stellar because they thought it would pump the coin. They did it because the infrastructure solved their operational needs.
WisdomTree didn't build 13 digital funds on Stellar for hype. They did it because "Stellar's native asset controls, relatively low cost, and operational performance" met their requirements.
The market rewards narratives. Infrastructure rewards deployments.
And deployments don't trend on Twitter—they show up in quarterly reports from banks and asset managers.
The visibility problem isn't that Stellar lacks institutional adoption. It's that institutional adoption doesn't look like retail hype.
