Is Stellar XLM 2019 Roadmap a Game Changer?

Stellar(XLM) has revealed its roadmap for the year 2019. The roadmap presents an acumen into the five divisions that Stellar Development Foundation (SDF) is acting on. Stellar Core and Horizon both have committed unit while a new unit is added in the form of Product that concentrates on Stellar apps and other things. The company unit incorporates HR and ops while Ecosystem manages the developer and association connections.

In the Horizon section, the unit is currently acting on eliminating the GitHub PR and result accumulation while the opening quarter will notice the summation of businesses that lose in consensus to Horizon, the client-facing API servicer for the Stellar ecosystem. The stellar network is a decentralized network. It means that the network does not depend on any particular server. The intent is to have as many servers as possible in the network so that the network will still work strongly even if some servers don’t work accurately or fail.

The Market

Stellar(XLM) has been a promising crypto asset, being in the top 10 coins. At the time of writing, XLM is trading at $0.083409 after undergoing a fall of almost 15%. Nevertheless, lately, Stellar has been forming alliances with big, mainstream companies to give businesses with its Blockchain solution that maintains to be efficient and user-friendly sufficient to transform the form business is executed globally.

What’s in the Roadmap?

As mentioned earlier the team is planning to add transactions that break in consensus to Horizon. In other words, Horizon’s primary plan snubs transactions that are tendered to the network (and thus pay a price) but that misses to achieve due to problems like an inadequate balance or a wrong sequence number. This function has two principal outcomes: users can be imposed a fee but not understand how that occurred when testing their transaction records, and the Horizon /fee_stats endpoint will give a bad job of evaluating received fees if a majority of transactions break.

In the first function, it is necessary for users to have a specific accounting of their account profit, and the latter is essential for wallets to guarantee that transactions perform in a suitable way during haste pricing circumstances. The Stellar XLM team is joining a configurable characteristic to Horizon in v0.17.2 to secure it ingest broke transactions as well, resolving both problems.

The roadmap also highlighted that, in Q2/Q3 of 2019, more validators will connect the network if a Stellar node can operate on medium-range hardware. The Stellar XLM team is planning to develop data access to stellar-core’s database (by executing batching and prefetching). It will also combine protection for corrupt archives and support full validator finding and bulk configuration by Q3.

The company is also all ready to rebuild Stellar.org and the new website is presumed to be ready by May 1st. The team would run on issuing more content such as use case and core ideas.

An open-source SDK Wallet

In Q2 of 2019, the company will build a first-class, open-source Stellar Wallet SDK. This will present Stellar natural to develop on and establish the network. For example, fiat tether issuers will be capable to utilize Stellar knowing that wallets can consistently carry in-app collaterals and retreats of their token. By Q3, the team will have at least one great quality, a great influence project utilizing the new structure.

In the year 2018, the XLM team had started working on a lightning-like payment system on Stellar, and Interstellar developed a bidirectional research implementation known as a Starlight. Nevertheless, Stellar is still many days away from completely backing a lightning-like practice. By accomplishing and achieving off-blockchain, the Lightning Network provides unusually low prices, which allows for developing use cases such as instantaneous micropayments.

From past few days, Stellar Lumens has begun to display some signs against its shooting declining rate performance but so far it has been ineffective in cutting back over $0.10. The most probable analysis for this is that Stellar’s foremost opponent, Ripple (XRP), has been seizing important gaits towards mainstream approval and obtaining meaningful connections over the last few months.

Will the new 2019 roadmap be sufficient enough to bring customers back into the XLM syndicates, or will XRP proceed to go forward in the competition to become the principal cross-border payment solution?
