The key pillars of this evolution are the launch of a public RPC server for easy developer communication with the network and the integration of a modern platform Soroban, which allows writing secure smart contracts in Rust. The document details the transition to protocol version 23, which brings a decentralized exchange (DEX) and automated market makers to the ecosystem, leading to the imminent opening of the main network (Open Mainnet). Despite ambitious technical innovations and a robust infrastructure built on the Stellar Consensus Protocol, the text highlights the economic challenges associated with the high supply of tokens and the need to build real utility for millions of verified users. The analysis aims to provide comprehensive insight into the strategic direction of the network, which seeks to connect mass adoption with advanced interoperability within the broader Web3 world.
