LEO Token (LEO) vs Stellar (XLM)

The LEO Token, or LEO, is the native cryptocurrency of Bitfinex, a centralized cryptocurrency exchange platform. Launched in 2012, Bitfinex is operated by iFinex Inc, a company registered in the British Virgin Islands.

Stellar is a layer 1 blockchain platform designed to support fast, secure, and low-cost value transfers between different currencies. Launched in 2014 by one of the co-founders of Ripple, another cryptocurrency project aimed at facilitating cross-border payments for businesses and institutions, Stellar focuses more on modest daily exchanges. The Stellar network uses a unique consensus protocol, the Stellar Consensus Protocol (SCP), which allows for rapid transaction confirmation without relying on Proof of Work (PoW) or Proof of Stake (PoS).
