Flare is a Layer-1 blockchain network designed to enhance interoperability and smart contract capabilities across different blockchain ecosystems. It focuses on decentralized access to high-integrity data, enabling cross-chain communication and supporting networks that do not natively possess smart contract functionality, such as the XRP Ledger.
Flare operates using a modified Avalanche consensus mechanism combined with a Federated Byzantine Agreement (FBA), securing the network through staking. Its ecosystem includes the Flare Time Series Oracle (FTSO) for decentralised price data and a State Connector system for secure data integration from other blockchains. The network supports Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM)-based smart contracts, allowing for interoperability and integration across various blockchains.
Flare provides multiple use cases including cross-chain exchanges where users receive FLR rewards, governance participation through FLR token delegation, collateral in decentralised financial applications, and enabling smart contracts on non-compatible chains. It also facilitates asset tokenization, turning real-world assets like stocks and real estate into blockchain representations. Partnerships in areas like digital art and data decentralisation further expand its practical applications.
Flare Network was founded by Hugo Philion, Sean Rowan, and Dr. Naïri Usher, with an aim to bridge blockchain ecosystems and enable decentralised connectivity. Officially launched in 2020, it has achieved significant milestones including strategic partnerships and the integration of real-world data sources. It is transitioning to a Proof-of-Stake system and underwent a second stage of network upgrades in September 2023. The network's native token distribution prioritises community allocation, with a circulating supply milestone reached in 2024 showing robust market engagement.
