Federation | Stellar Documentation
developers.stellar.org
The Stellar federation protocol maps Stellar addresses to an email-like identifier that provides more information about a given user. It’s a way for Stellar client software to resolve email-like addresses such as name*yourdomain.com into account IDs like: GCCVPYFOHY7ZB7557JKENAX62LUAPLMGIWNZJAFV2MITK6T32V37KEJU. Federated addresses provide an easy way for users to share payment details by using a syntax that interoperates across different domains and providers.

What do people think about incorporating a Stellar address that is unique to your federated account with your chosen insurance.

This would allow for people to send/receive stable coins such as circles USDC. I feel the stellar network would complement Lemmy or Mastodon quite well.

    Or none at all and Lemmy could just allow for exporting your private key to use elsewhere.

    That mean that user AND server administrator will control user wallet. You think that a great idea when anyone, anywhere can create instance? I think this will lead to centralization.

    Cryptocurrency, like any financial transactions, requires serious security. Much more serious than the servers deployed for posting memes can provide. There is no need to combine incompatible things.

      Well, if this were the case I guess it’s not a great idea at all!
