What is Stellar Lumens (XLM)?

The Stellar network is a pragmatic blockchain project which aims to work as a bridge between the exactly opposite worlds of decentralized cryptocurrency and traditional, centralized financial institutions. Stellar is known for its unique consensus method — the Stellar Consensus Protocol, which is totally unique in the blockchain ecosystem in a traditional sense.

Stellar is a blockchain platform which is primarily focused on integrating distributed ledger technology (DLT) into existing financial infrastructure. Stellar presents as the future of banking and intend to address the gaps that exist between the disparate closed system, composed of the current international financial markets.

Market prediction for Stellar-Lumens price

As the market is very volatile, it is not easy to predict any cryptocurrency per se, that too, when it is the 6th largest cryptocurrency in the world. Looking at all the predictions given by the market enthusiasts/ publications/ traders, one thing is certain that there is a lot of hope surrounding Stellar price prediction.

#1 Long Forecast

Long Forecast gave an entirely conservative prediction, where they forecasted that by the end of 2019, XLM might reach $0.30, which make sit look like it won't grow much as compared to the current price. Maybe, the end of 2019 prediction is missing if this can be considered the prediction for the 1st half of 2019.

#2 Wallet Investor

Wallet Investor updates prices and predictions every three minutes using the latest technical analysis. They have very conservatively made a 5-Year forecast of $1.005.

#3 Mega Crypto Price

The price forecast at Mega Crypto Price has been very optimistic for all the cryptocurrencies and its the same for XLM, too, predicting that Stellar could be worth $5.10 by the end of 2019. The team says that this can be achieved as long as there are no major security flaws and the overall sector performs well.

#4 Monetize Info

Monetize believes that Stellar’s major partnerships will be the major reason behind an upcoming price surge, which might result in XLM’s price reaching $2-$3 by 2019. Beyond IBM, Stellar’s partners include Stripe, Deloitte, etc.

For example, Stripe gave Stellar a 3-million-dollar capital injection a few years back which Stellar immediately returned in XLM.

#5 The Economy Forecast Agency

This website features a long-range forecasting model to make market forecasts for corporate clients. The website has its own price prediction for 2020, which says XLM will see a high of $0.64 in 2020, which is by far the most conservative and pessimistic of XLM’s price predictions.

Stellar is also getting ahead of its competitor by announcing a partnership with TransferTo, which will boost international money transfer, efficiently. 2019 will experience the continuity in the success of Stellar, where it might be hovering around $0.505 in February and March, after which it might pick up to reach around $0.611 in the second quarter. Because of its partnerships with the famous tech giants- IBM and Deloitte, it will be a market player in 2019. By the end of 2019, the XLM price may reach $0.664. You can convert XLM to BTC (https://coinswitch.co/coins/stellar-lumens/stellar-lumens-to-bitcoin)from CoinSwitch at the best rate.

Let me know what you all think about this coin...

XLM x 8 times with current price, I think it's impossible this year. Not only the XLM, but I think there will not be a coin in the top 10 to do that.

Do not think that only stellar fell in price. This fate befell other coins. But you should watch longer and you will see the growth that was expected, including stellar.


Well, actually the whole crypto market is falling, and not only Stellar, actually now there is no negative news, I think this can continue until the end of the year , but of course in the future the price will grow higher than it was !

With the bull expected to bounce back, Stellar is one of those who really works for long term investment, this forecast can be achieved when the pumped
around crypto market continue, who knows what will be the next target before this year will end, as long as the potential of bitcoin to grow up again and reached the last time high or greater than that, all the coins which have  a good community will receive growth that they've deserved.

Positive outlook  while holding assets like Stellar.

coins like Stellar are centralized pump and dump coins and their long term is not something that anybody even bothers with predicting. the only thing that people are interested in when it comes to pump and dump coins is their short term action during the pumps and the only thing they try to predict is how long the pump is going to last so that they can get ready to jump off ship with their profits.
of course this is only true about traders not bag holders who lose money.

It's impossible stellar has no usefulness, I remember OP has created a thread that predicted the future price of coin based on TA. This thread should be on the speculation section. Stellar as the future payment system is a big joke

Why not ? have you seen BTT yet? Its price has increased 10 times in just 1 week. So everything can happen in this market, if the bull market starts in mid-2019, I believe that the XLM may rise to 0.6 $

Crypto market it's unpredictable especially in this current bear market situation. Everything will happen if bull run come in mid 2019.

I wish you good luck with your prediction. Even if i personally do not believe in it, it may be possible. I am not a fan of ripple and stellar, so i do not believe in this prediction.

Well, I do not think that now xlm can go up, yet xlm broke the bearish trend and will yet move down , I think it is not suitable for investment

But this does not negate the fact that this coin is good and has already established itself in the market , as for a long investment xlm is perfect for this !

In 2017 Stellar Lumens is one of the coins that offer biggest gainer of profit, the price was rally more than 80 times in that years. In the long term this coin still has possibility to raise more than 10x because they has working product and has partnership with big company like IBM.

Stellar does have a good future, this coin has a strong community and the price is also affordable.
Predicting for the end of the year I think it could happen and that is a form of good team performance if it does happen later.

We are in bearish market condition right now and those price drop of almost every alternative cryptocurrency
are normal behavior of the market but it will surely recover we just don't know when it will happen.So, it is not so surprising for me. Stellar price will rise again in the next year. When the most crypto coins are rising, stellar will be also affected.

It is quite possible, but only for this the growth of the whole market is needed, so it does not necessarily happen at the end of the year, but maybe sooner or later!

I think it's impossible for lumens / xlm to rise 0.66 dollars in the near future. except 2020 because we don't know what will happen in the coming year.
it's difficult for xlm to rise to 9x this year

Good for investors? ???

Stellar is a pump and dump coin? how can you be so sure with that, any reference regarding this?

They already got so many partnership with other well known company and still working to others so I don't think that this kind of coin is a pump and dump, besides it's almost 5 years ago since it was released so the 'pump and dump' aspect is quite bullshit to me.

The price predicted is just a pure speculation there's no guarantee it will happen, but looking at the future market there's a possibility it can achieve it, bullrun still haven't happen, the tokens would go ham if it happens.

If there is a market recovery down the line this 2019, then Stellar Lumens could be one coins that will benefit from it since this is a steady coins for the last couple of years so I wouldn't be surprise if the price hits $0.66 and specially if devs are really active and always regularly updated the project and improved it.

So it really depends on the market conditions this year, if it improved then most notable coins will ride the wave, if not then we are in for a very bad rude awakening as the price might continue to go down.

i don't care about what virtual partnerships they say they have, or what they claim they are doing. all i care about is the charts of the altcoins. and what i see on the charts of this coin is a lot of clear signs of pump and dumps all over them.

well, that is my analysis. you don't have to like it or agree with it. i am not posting it as a financial advice. try to stick to your own analysis.

In this market, I consider XLM as the best altcoin. It is just behind Bitcoin and ETH. Therefore, in the future, the price of XLM will be very high compared to ATH

There's nothing that we can say in certain manner, the value will rise to that level if there's more traders and investors choosing this coin for their investment, it's just between the supply and demand and how people inside this industry will treat certain project, no one can predict what tomorrow
will bring to your assets, only you alone needs to assess and invest for your own benefits.

The problem with stellar when you think everything going fine, they are making an airdrop and causing the sink of the price.

I think this will cause a sharp drop only temporarily, but in my opinion, behind that they have a good plan and indirectly some people who have never had stellar, can feel how stellar works. IMO

I do not doubt the possible surge in the price of stellar. If is i could rise amidst bear market in 2018, it definitely means that any positive impact from a rising market can also affect it positively. Aside that, a good update is what is needed, even if the market has not recovered.
Most of the coins that have been been rising these days, are as a result of positive news on their ecosystem.

Don't you think 0.66 is a big target?
isn't that very unrealistic for now, maybe Stellar has the potential to rise but the target is very impossible to achieve. plus the current market still isn't stable so it's hard to believe that the end of the stellar year will be good.

Maybe if you have a better innovation and strategy for an increase of $ 0.66 can be achieved, it all depends on the performance of the team and the community that maintains it. We will see what the team does for your predictions.

Stellar has a lot of hype but not much in the way of performing. Perhaps their airdrop has helped to improve marketing and distribution for a steady price rise

but still it is impossible, with many people selling it difficult to ride. and I think he's right this 2019 is still too fast for XLM to rise. maybe 2020 or even longer we can only see this coin going up.
