Remi Unveils Remura at Stellar Meridian 2026

Some stages you remember. On 28 October in Lisbon, Remi pitched at Stellar Meridian 2026 and used those few minutes to launch something we've been building all year: Remura, the confidential stablecoin layer for financial institutions.

Why Meridian

Meridian is Stellar's flagship global conference. It's where the teams, institutions and investors building on Stellar come together once a year to see what's next for the network.

Getting a slot on that stage isn't a given. For a team building institutional infrastructure on Stellar, it's the room you want to be in, and it's the room where we chose to put Remura in front of everyone for the first time.

Our co-founder and CTO Mohamed Abdou took the stage with a simple message: institutions want stablecoins, but they can't use them on a ledger where everyone can read their books.

Launching Remura on stage

Remura comes out of the work funded by our Stellar Community Fund grant. At Meridian it stopped being a project and became a product, with its own name and a working build on Stellar testnet.

Remura in 45 seconds: confidential transfers, treasury with fiat redemption and one API

The problem it solves

Public blockchains are open by design. Anyone can see how much a wallet sends, how much it holds and who it deals with.

That's fine for a lot of uses. For a bank or a money transfer operator it's a dealbreaker. No regulated institution can broadcast its treasury, its flows and its counterparties to competitors and the public. So most institutional money stays off-chain, even where stablecoins would settle it faster and cheaper.

The same treasury on a public chain, where every amount is visible, and on Remura, where amounts are private and a scoped auditor key opens one record

What we showed

Remura lets regulated financial institutions move stablecoins confidentially, without giving up oversight.

Confidential transfers with scoped investigation keys

Amounts and balances stay private to the public. Authorized auditors and supervisors get scoped investigation keys, which open only the records a case needs. Nothing is anonymized. Sender, recipient and amount stay fully traceable for compliance.

Treasury management with fiat redemption

Each institution runs its own public and confidential treasuries. From one console it can move funds between the two and redeem into fiat.

One API

Remura connects to the systems an institution already uses through a single API, so there's no new stack to run.

Core banking, compliance and treasury systems connect through one API to Remura, which settles privately on the Stellar network

How Remura fits with Remi

Remi is the infrastructure: a network of banks and money transfer operators that settles money across borders for their SMEs and individual customers.

Remura is the product that opens stablecoin payments to that network. Institutions get stablecoin speed with the privacy they need, and the extra volume it brings settles across the Remi network.

"Banks and money transfer operators have been asking the same question for years: how do we use stablecoins without showing the whole market our books? Remura is our answer. It keeps private what should be private and keeps everything a supervisor needs in reach."

See it, then join the waitlist

Remura is running on Stellar testnet today, and we're walking institutions through it one demo at a time. If you'd like to see what the public sees, and what it doesn't, get in touch.

Mainnet comes next. If you're a bank, money transfer operator or payment provider and want early access, join the Remura waitlist.

Thank you to the Stellar Development Foundation, to CV Labs, our accelerator partner, and to the whole Meridian team for the stage and the support. We came to Lisbon with a product. We left with a launch.

Private to the public. Visible to the auditor. That's the whole idea.
