Bell sets a November 23, 2026 validator vote

The Stellar Development Foundation introduced Bell, also known as Protocol 30, on October 20, 2026, according to CryptoTicker. The upgrade combines three network changes: a new format for smart-contract addresses, checks for quantum-safe signatures, and ledger timestamps measured in milliseconds. Quantum-safe signatures are cryptographic checks designed to withstand attacks from sufficiently powerful quantum computers.

Validators are scheduled to vote on the testnet on November 3, 2026, and on the mainnet on November 23, 2026, at 17:00 UTC, according to CryptoTicker. The report said existing addresses remain valid and that the upgrade does not require a token migration. The mainnet date is subject to validator approval.

94,972 active addresses marked October network use

Stellar's total value locked reached 273 million USD on October 2, 2026, while daily active addresses reached 94,972, according to CoinOtag. Total value locked measures assets deposited in decentralized finance applications. The same report put Stellar's stablecoin supply at 934.54 million USD and decentralized-exchange volume at 3.38 million USD.

A separate October 11, 2026, analysis by Yahoo Finance said Stellar hosted 3.5 billion USD in tokenized real-world assets. It also noted that tokenized funds can invest in Treasury assets rather than XLM, while network fees are fractions of a cent. That distinction separates growth in assets hosted on Stellar from direct demand for the coin.
