🌉 Stargate's September Surge
Stargate achieved a milestone in September, processing $11.5 billion in cross-chain value transfers and swaps - marking its highest monthly volume to date.
The protocol continues expanding its reach with recent additions:
- EURQ and USDQ stablecoins from Quantoz now live
- MiCA-compliant tokens using LayerZero's OFT standard
