Chainlink Unlocks New RWA Features For Stellar
Stellar Lumens (XLM) garnered attention in the Real World Asset (RWA) division when the OG chain entered the $24 billion RWA market via Archax. Last Summer, The Stellar Development Foundation made a strategic investment in the British crypto custody company, mainly focused on tokenizing real-world assets (RWAs).
With this field inevitably thriving, this fresh Chainlink (LINK) partnership gives builders on Stellar (XLM) an advantage in production-ready infrastructure. “Once the integration is complete, Stellar will be one step closer to a unified on-chain financial system where real-world assets and DeFi coexist seamlessly”, – shared Raja Chakravorti, CBO at Stellar Development Foundation.
Some of the highlight functions include programmable token transfers, supporting cross-chain programmability & customizable token pool contracts. Based on Oracle, Chainlink provides the Decentralized Oracle Network (DON), a security powerhouse looking after over $100 billion in total value locked (TVL) on DeFi.
Will Stellar’s RWA Deal Accelerate XLM’s Price?
Claiming back $0.30, XLM coin has still massively under-performing against the ‘Uptober’ hopes, actually leading the OG altcoin to a 23.20% deficit. With the yearly return still at 230%, many market connoisseurs expect Stellar Lumens (XLM) to produce a one more strong rebound in Q4 of 2025, with $0.37 being the first target before the ultimate cycle goal of $0.50.
XLM topped at this price on July 17, 2025 and traded in a descending triangle ever since then. Now, the 4-hour price charts imply a bullish setup for Stellar (XLM) with the Chaikin Money Flow (CMF) flipping positive, along with a ‘buy’ signal on the Parabolic Stop & Reverse (SAR) meter.
Despite XLM’s bullish technical structure & the Oracle based Chailink (LINK) implementation, Stellar Lumen’s trading volume remained quite stagnant at $183 million in 24 hours. Bouncing off thrice from $0.29, the altcoin has assembled a strong foundation at this range, resulting in bounce backs on October 11, 17 & 31.
Market analysts believe the volume can pick up in November due to the ISO 20022 financial messaging system upgrade coming from SWIFT. Inherently compliant with this standard, chains like Stellar (XLM) & Ripple (XRP) are also participating in testing SWIFT’s rails for immediate cross-border payments in Q4 of 2025.
