When explaining Stellar, Liu started with a simple explanation of ledgers, the basic idea of a sheet that keeps track of digital transactions. Stellar is able to make united ledgers available to many users in different places all at once. They also use a data chain called Blockchain that is more nuanced than a centralized database because it has multiple main databases that allow for a better connection between users. Liu explained the advanced way of using ledgers that allows them to be organized in a way that helps them be accessed by a wide audience of users.
