• Stellar (XLM) gains momentum as adoption in cross-border payments continues to expand.
• Western Union partnership strengthens Stellar’s role in global remittances across 200+ countries.
• Price target of $1 emerges if momentum holds, signaling a major market move ahead.

Stellar (XLM) is back in focus as analysts point to its expanding use in payments and promising technical patterns. While the price has seen a small pullback, growing adoption in cross-border transactions and bullish chart signals hint that a breakout may be on the horizon.

At the time of writing, XLM is trading at $0.3772, with a 24-hour trading volume of $459.67 million and a market capitalization of $11.93 billion. XLM has seen a slight dip of -1.98% over the last 24 hours, but some analysts believe a major move could be ahead.

Stellar and Western Union Partnership Fuels Growth

A well-known crypto analyst from X Finance Bull recently emphasized that Stellar could be just “one deal away from taking off.” He pointed to the ongoing collaboration between Western Union and Stellar’s blockchain, which already spans more than 200 countries and facilitates billions of dollars in cross-border payments.

According to the analyst, even a minor upgrade or partnership could significantly boost Stellar’s position in the remittance industry. Such a move might transform it from a promising blockchain project into a leading player in the global cross-border payments market.

Stellar (XLM) Poised for Major Market Breakout

Adding to the bullish outlook, popular analyst Ali Martinez shared a technical opinion in which he explained that XLM is currently forming the right shoulder of a head-and-shoulders pattern on the charts.

Should the bull breakout pan out, XLM could surge up towards the $1 price level, a level not breached in the current market cycle. Such a breakout would not only mark a psychological breakthrough for investors but also solidify Stellar’s growing footprint in the cross-border payments space.

As cross-border remittance usage continues to grow, rising cooperation, such as in Western Union, and positive technical indications, XLM is in a good position for a potential upsurge. Both through increased growth in adoption and positive chart set-ups, Stellar is once again positioned as a project to follow in the coming months, potentially fulfilling as one of the highest-performing assets in the crypto markets.
