What Was Meridian 2022 Rome?
Meridian 2022 was held in Rome, Italy, on 13 September 2022. The Stellar Development Foundation's annual global developer and ecosystem conference held in Rome, bringing together Stellar protocol developers, anchor operators, stablecoin issuers, and global remittance and cross-border payment builders for sessions on Stellar ecosystem development and XLM network expansion. The official site is Meridian 2022. {el("https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Banca_d%27Italia","Banca d'Italia")} and EU pre-MiCA regulatory landscape gave Stellar's European anchor operations Italian regulatory context. Rome's historical significance as the centre of Roman trade finance and Mediterranean commerce gave Stellar's cross-border payment mission culturally-resonant historic context.
