Twitter bot Whale Alert, which tracks major crypto transactions in multiple cryptocurrencies, shared that several large sums of Stellar Lumens (XLM) have been transferred in the past twenty-four hours with the participation of the largest US-based crypto exchange Coinbase. Altcoin Stellar is a competitor to Ripple Labs and was founded by Ripple's co-creator and former chief technology officer Jed McCaleb in 2014 after he left Ripple due to inconsistencies with other co-founders. The project is basically based on the Ripple Labs protocol and has been separated through a hard fork and rewritten with Stallar specific code. It is frequently preferred for cross-border payments for very fast and low-cost transfers…
