See You in Rio: KindFi at Stellar Meridian 2025 — with Costa Rica’s Trustless Work Ecosystem

We’re heading to Stellar’s flagship conference in Rio de Janeiro, joining fellow Costa Rica projects from the Trustless Work ecosystem: Trustless Work, GrantFox, and Pacto.

We’re excited to share that KindFi is attending Meridian 2025—Stellar’s flagship conference—taking place September 17–18, 2025 at the Copacabana Palace in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. The theme this year is “The Blueprint”, bringing together builders, founders, policymakers, and ecosystem partners focused on real-world finance and open blockchain innovation.

Heading to Rio? Let’s connect

If you’re building around escrow, stablecoins, real-world impact, or transparent crowdfunding, we’d love to meet. We’ll be on site both conference days and during the hackathon window.

Who’s traveling with us

We’re proud to highlight fellow Costa Rica projects from the Trustless Work ecosystem who will also be in the mix:

Trustless Work — Stellar-based escrow infrastructure powering milestone-based, non-custodial payments.
GrantFox — Open-source grants & milestone payouts platform using Trustless Work smart escrows.
Pacto — Local P2P trading and on/off-ramps where every trade is secured with Trustless Work escrows.

These tools help us make transparent, verifiable crowdfunding possible across LATAM—exactly the kind of practical innovation Meridian celebrates.

Why Meridian matters for KindFi

Real partnerships, faster shipping: Two days of workshops, technical talks, and founder-to-founder conversations designed to move products from zero to one.
HackMeridian: Ahead of the main event, the official hackathon (Sept 15–16) is a great space to prototype integrations and form teams.
Focus areas we care about: stablecoins, tokenization, DeFi, compliance, smart contracts, payments, and interoperability—core to how we run escrow-first crowdfunding.
