Almost all future usecases of the blockchain (AI, Gaming, Identity, Real World Assets etc) will require some amount of external data attested onto chain. Decentralisation (without it there is no safety), scalability and low latency are key. Flare is the blockchain for data.…

Flare builders are doing the quiet work - shipping protocols, refining infra, expanding what’s possible. Not every builder is loud, but their impact echoes. It doesn’t always trend. But it always compounds. Thank you for driving the bus and engine with us.
Okay this looks too awesome to ignore I’m going to start investigating getting a Flare Card made.
Everyone is talking Flare credit cards all of a sudden. I wouldn't even need a sign up bonus. Just give me one that's: ☀️ Pink, metal, minimalist ☀️ 3% back on all purchases in FLR ☀️ The heft of the old JW Marriott card ☀️ Option to send rewards directly to protocol of choice
FirelightFi on Flare is here to connect XRP to real economic use cases. Through Economically Secured Services (ESS), staked XRP can power: > Insurance for high-value DeFi protocols > Liquidity for real-world assets (RWAs) All with eyes set on real, native yield 🔥
AVSs extended trust — but not efficiently. Economically Secured Services (ESS) are the next evolution in decentralized security: securing outcomes, not entire networks. Learn how we're redefining staking for economic security. 🔥 medium.com/@Firelight/fro…
This is an interesting topic, so let me take the opportunity to clarify a few things. On Flare inflation: I dislike the word inflation because of how it has been used to debase fiat currencies. However, I believe it's been proven that inflation can be non-malignant and useful if…
Some more boring thoughts on Flare inflation (that you didn't ask for but might actually melt your face off) I think inflation is evil. Like... central banker, blood-sucking, QE-injected, steak-eating-while-you-skip-breakfast kind of evil. And in fiat? Yeah, it is. It funds…

Behind the scenes: → $XRP locked on XRPL → FDC verifies deposit, enables FAssets to mint $FXRP on @FlareNetworks → $FXRP staked, accrues Points → $stXRP (LST) minted—usable across DeFi 🔥 Phase 1 — Points Phase 2 — Points + Fees for securing ESS
A quick guide to participating in Phase 1👇 1⃣ Acquire $FXRP (bridge or swap) and $FLR (for gas). 2⃣ Stake $FXRP in the Launch Vault and earn Firelight Points. 3⃣ Receive $stXRP for use across DeFi. 4⃣ Burn $stXRP to redeem $FXRP. Drop your questions below.

With $stXRP, you can pursue multiple DeFi strategies, stack yields and maximize returns on your $XRP holdings. As a composable ERC-20 token, its peg is maintained by natural arbitrage opportunities—all while you continue to benefit from the underlying yield.

Just made fan art of Bugo from @FlareNetworks. He doesn’t know it yet, but I’m his biggest fan. Flare fam, back me up here — who else loves Bugo? Drop your fav Bugo moment. 🧸🍯 $FLR #FlareCommunity #FlareFoundation
What if you could make transactions on Flare directly from the XRPL?
Flare has one of the most interesting solutions to bring Web2 data onchain. I'm starting a series of short videos to delve deeper into FDC so devs can learn all the details on how to use this tool and build cool things.
🚨 Firelight Protocol is incubated by @SentoraHQ and @FlareNetworks, who are the main contributors to its IP and development. Sentora was formed through the merger of IntoTheBlock and Trident Digital and is backed by a $25M Series A round. 👇Learn more.
IntoTheBlock has merged with Trident Digital to form Sentora, an institutional-grade DeFi platform combining yield strategies, risk management, and financial services. medium.com/sentora/announ…
The waitlist is officially FULL. Everyone on the waitlist is granted a Flame Bearer role on Discord — your key to Alpha Lab, a private channel with early updates. 🔥 Gather around the fire → discord.gg/hubyZYNxQQ
@SentoraHQ and @FlareNetworks Project @Firelightfi hit the second registration cap since its announcement Monday. The XRP community is on fire! Thanks for the support. Now all hands on deck towards the launch in a few weeks.
Flare just turned 3. Since the genesis block, here’s what has built: 1. A robust network that supports 240 million total transactions & 775K+ active addresses. 2. 400K+ data queries to FTSO and FDC - powering FAssets, a bridging system for XRP and more without third-party…
These were the top chains by net bridge flows over the past week:
