?? The interoperability between #blockchain and core banking systems, which DCM have deployed as the solution provider of Transparent Network, is already making a substantial impact on Ukraine’s financial market and is poised to influence the global market as well. Here’s why ?? As Paul Wong highlighted in DCM`s interview for CoinDesk, ???? Ukraine stands on the brink of a historic moment—with approximately half a trillion dollars in aid expected to flow into the country for recovery and development. Typically, 20-40% of this development aid is lost due to misconduct, fraud, and malfeasance. ?? With Transparent Network, we can ensure transparency, traceability, and reliable audibility of this process, allowing donors full visibility into the allocation of their funds. This changes the game and builds trust in the financial assistance process. And this is just one powerful example of how Transparent Network is set to transform the financial sector ??

Our workplaces at Stellar Development Foundation in New York and San Francisco represent more than just physical spaces—they are homes for collaboration, connection, and growth. Last month, after months of planning and anticipation, we welcomed our team into our brand-new office in the heart of Manhattan. After settling in, we gathered with team members, industry partners, and Stellar community members to celebrate this milestone. It’s no secret that New York is back in full swing, and we are so excited to be a part of that energy! New York is a world-class center for business, innovation, and creativity. The city's rich talent pool will help us build a diverse team of thinkers, creators, and problem-solvers who will drive our company forward. There’s just something irreplaceable about the experience of working together in a shared environment, which is why we’ve focused our recruiting efforts this past year on hiring individuals near one of our offices. In fact, 70% of our hires this year were hired in either San Francisco or New York. The spontaneous conversations, quick brainstorming sessions, and the simple joys of connecting with each other face-to-face foster creativity and innovation in ways that are difficult to replicate virtually. Being in the same room allows our ideas to flow more freely. We’re excited to see how this new space will spark new levels of collaboration. This was more than just an office opening – it’s the beginning of a new chapter for us, and we’re so excited about what lies ahead.? We can’t wait to see what we’ll achieve as we come together and continue building a future that’s even brighter than before. Hello New York!
