## Questions

### Does GXLM track Stellar?

Over the year to Oct 20, 2026 it returned −25.2% against Stellar’s −45.5%, which leaves it 37.3% ahead once both returns are compounded.

### Does GXLM stake?

The Stellar Ledger settles by a consensus its validators are not paid for, so there is nothing to stake and no fund holding Stellar can pay a staking yield.

Grayscale Stellar Lumens Trust (XLM), a spot Stellar trust sponsored by Grayscale, first traded Oct 19, 2021. It holds the coin through a custodian rather than futures on it or shares in companies that own it.
