Tradable Migrates $1B In Private Credit Assets To Stellar Network

Tradable, the ParaFi-backed private credit tokenization platform, has begun migrating $1 billion in institutional-grade private credit assets to the @StellarOrg blockchain, shifting its portfolio away from ZKsync. The firm is deploying $XLM to handle the full deal lifecycle, including compliance controls and investor onboarding, for alternative assets that were previously held in opaque, siloed legacy systems.

From ZKsync to Stellar

Tradable has been building its private credit infrastructure on ZKsync, where its on-chain technology allowed institutional asset managers to migrate investment strategies on-chain and access a broader investor base. The pivot to Stellar signals a strategic shift toward a network with deeper institutional roots and a more established compliance architecture. Tradable operates as a private credit tokenization and liquidity platform, providing deal ownership management and access to institutional-grade private credit deals.

The move also reflects Stellar's growing pull in the real-world asset space. In the first half of 2026, Stellar crossed $3 billion in tokenized real-world assets, hitting the $1 billion, $2 billion, and $3 billion marks all within six months. That momentum has attracted a roster of well-known institutional names. A growing number of regulated financial institutions, including Franklin Templeton, PayPal, WisdomTree, and MoneyGram, have chosen the Stellar network for settlement, tokenized assets, and global payments.

Why Stellar for Institutional Private Credit

Tradable's choice of Stellar is consistent with the network's positioning as a compliance-first blockchain for regulated asset issuance. Franklin Templeton pioneered tokenized treasuries on Stellar, enabling 24/7 trading of U.S. government securities with under 6-second settlements and near-zero transaction costs. WisdomTree, with over $100 billion in AUM, offers 13 digital funds on Stellar through WisdomTree Prime, seamlessly integrating fiat, digital assets, and tokenized investments.

The compliance infrastructure underpinning these deployments is built directly into the protocol. Nearly a decade of work with Securrency, now DTCC Digital Assets, helped embed compliance tools such as clawbacks, transfer restrictions, and identity controls directly into the Stellar network. That foundation has made Stellar the preferred venue for institutions that need more than speed. For regulated firms, moving assets on-chain requires compliance with securities laws, sanctions requirements, and investor protections, creating demand for blockchain infrastructure that can support identity checks, transfer restrictions, and other compliance controls.

Tradable's migration adds further institutional weight to a network that is increasingly becoming the default rail for tokenized private markets. With $1 billion in private credit moving from ZKsync to Stellar, the deployment is one of the larger chain migrations in the private credit tokenization space to date.
