The Stellar Development Foundation and TopNod announced at Consensus Hong Kong that TopNod is bringing its next-generation Web3 wallet to the Stellar network. This integration brings TopNod’s non-custodial wallet to the Stellar ecosystem, expanding access to Stellar’s high-throughput, fast settlement, and compliance-forward infrastructure in Asia, Africa, and Latin America. By offering a streamlined and protected pathway to digital ownership, TopNod empowers users globally to engage confidently in the evolving digital economy.
“Bringing TopNod to the Stellar strengthens the network’s ecosystem and signals that Asia, Africa, and Latin America are the markets where we expect to see significant growth in demand for tokenized real-world assets and stablecoins,” said Raja Chakravorti, Chief Business Officer at the Stellar Development Foundation. “Expanding access to the global financial system only happens when people everywhere have the tools they need to take control of their financial futures. TopNod provides users with a secure and intuitive gateway to digital ownership, now powered by Stellar.”
For more than a decade, Stellar has been trusted to provide stable and secure access to the global financial system. The network offers institutions the configurability to issue and manage assets that reflect both onchain and real-world financial services, making it the go-to infrastructure for enterprise-grade finance.
“Our mission at TopNod has always been to make digital ownership simple and secure for everyone. Integrating with the Stellar network is a pivotal step towards that goal. Stellar’s unmatched speed and low costs, combined with our user-friendly wallet, create a powerful combination that finally makes participating in the RWA economy not just possible, but practical and accessible for users in Asia and around the globe,” said Jacky Zhu, CEO of TopNod.
TopNod takes a pragmatic, purpose-driven approach to Web3, focusing on functional mainstream tokens and RWAs backed by real-world value.

With this vision, TopNod aims to serve as a trusted link between real-world use cases and the digital future.
