Stablecon Salon: The First Sovereign Bond Issued On-Chain | Powered by Stellar, Surus & M1X

​Stellar, Surus & M1X invite you to a special edition of Stablecon Salon during New York Fintech Week.

​What happens when a sovereign nation chooses the blockchain over banks?

​In March 2026, the Republic of the Marshall Islands became the first sovereign nation to issue a fully collateralized bond natively on public blockchain infrastructure. USDM1 is a USD-denominated sovereign debt instrument backed 1:1 by U.S. Treasuries and designed for institutional margin, repo, and financing workflows.

​The three companies that built USDM1 are sitting down together for the first time. Stablecon presents an intimate conversation with the principals:

• ​Raja Chakravorti | CBO, Stellar Development Foundation

• ​Mark Lurie | CEO & Co-Founder, M1X Global

• ​Patrick Murck | Founder & CEO, Surus

​Our panel will cover how USDM1 was structured, why a licensed U.S. trust company was essential to the stack, what perfected security interests mean for institutional adoption, and what this model unlocks for sovereign issuers and capital markets participants.

​We promise a spirited discussion about how this transition could reshape access to capital and redefine trust in sovereign debt.

​Space is extremely limited and registration is required.
