Why use Stellar instead of Bitcoin or Ethereum?

Stellar is optimized for speed and low fees, processing transactions in 3–5 seconds with minimal costs. Unlike Ethereum, it uses the Stellar Consensus Protocol (SCP), which doesn’t rely on energy-heavy mining. Stellar also targets real-world payments and stablecoins, making it practical for cross-border transfers and enterprise adoption.
