Q1

2026

Developer tools

Lab 2.0 - smart contract integration

Lab 2.0 will allow developers to invoke smart contracts, and view contract storage, specs, and source code for verified contracts.

Developer tools

Freighter App Browser

A “discoverˮ tab is being added to Freighter to help wallet users easily find and integrate with the growing ecosystem of Stellar dApps.

Q2

2026

Developer tools

Unified RPC

Unified RPC 2.0 will make it easier for developers to consume data from the Stellar network by combining real-time Stellar asset and Soroban transaction data into a single, industry-standard format.

Developer tools

Stellar CLI

Stellar CLI will include enhanced transaction editing, network data access, and contract management capabilities, giving developers more from the command line.

Developer tools

0-to-1 payouts (no integration required)

Developer tools

CDP 1.0

CDP 1.0 will provide a customizable, fast, and cheap way to ingest and transform historical network data. Builders will be able to select the data they need with GO-based ingest and parsing libraries to speed up ingestion and reduce overhead.

Developer tools

Release the reusable wallet server

The Freighter wallet backend is a reusable service that will help wallets track balances and payments, reducing the time and cost of building Stellar wallets.

Developer tools

Release Freighter mobile app

The Freighter mobile app for iOS and Android will offer the same functionality as the browser extension, simplifying wallet access and on- and off-ramping for users who need to visit physical locations.

Q3

2026

Developer tools

Extensible ETL

The Stellar-ETL product is being enhanced to offer an extensive version of Stellarʼs data model to analytics users and providers, including curated data, new serialization

Developer tools

10,000 TPS

To improve scalability and performance, weʼre increasing transaction throughput by leveraging Soroban's concurrency, aggressive caching, and ahead-of-time contract compilation, with a goal of reaching 10,000 transactions per second (TPS)

Developer tools

Release one-stop shop for enterprises on Stellar

The Stellar Disbursement Platform will become a one-stop shop for enterprises on Stellar, supporting all major payment flows, including crypto and fiat. This will allow enterprises to manage financial activities seamlessly, regardless of whether their counterparts use digital assets.

Developer tools

Advanced Auth

Advanced authentication is being implemented to address loss and theft with non-custodial wallets. This will feature progressive security authentication based on held value and user-friendly key recovery options like passkeys and social sign-ins.

Q4

2026

Developer tools

Reach 4B people with SDP

We're aiming to expand the Stellar Disbursement Platform's (SDP) reach to 4 billion people globally, allowing enterprises to make payments through frictionless, no-install, zero-signup receiver wallets.

Developer tools

2s Blocks

Ledger close times will be reduced from 5 seconds to 2 seconds. This will be accomplished through improvements to our network overlay, consensus, and pipelining, enabling faster transaction processing and more efficient SCP voting.

Developer tools

Laboratory Transaction Debugger

Lab 3.0 will help developers resolve issues faster by providing in-depth insights for transaction-level simulation, debugging, and resource profiling.

Developer tools

Contract Copilot

Contract Copilot will reduce the time and cost to build Stellar smart contracts. New features will include boilerplate code generation covering common use cases, code linting for known vulnerability and security issues, and automated united testing.

Developer tools

Token Standards

Token Standards will strengthen the interoperability of the Stellar ecosystem by introducing standards for non-fungible tokens, multi-tokens, security tokens, real-world assets, and token vaults.

Developer tools

Mass payouts (10M in one click)

Enterprises will be able to process up to 10 million payments with a single click, thanks to improvements in mass payouts. Weʼll leverage Merkle trees to automate and compress payment flows, significantly increasing scalability.
