For the latest edition of Stellar House — Stellar's ongoing series of intimate gatherings for investors, founders, developers, and ecosystem partners — we set out to break from the sterile, expo-hall feel of typical crypto events. The strategy centered CDMX itself: local DJs and chefs brought the city's culture directly into the experience, turning the event into a destination worth traveling for, one that mirrored Stellar's own mission of bringing banking and financial access to the world's informal economies.

We integrated Stellar's wallet throughout — attendees collected an NFT proof of attendance, unlocked conference amenities, and paid local vendors directly using the network's payments capabilities, making the technology tangible. The event was also built as a connective thread in a broader framework, positioning Stellar House as a lead-up to Meridian 2026, Stellar's flagship keynote.
