Building a DeFi hub is not a sprint, but a marathon.

Happy new week everyone, Flare Up UNIBEN was a success. Grateful to @StreetFlareNG_ and the entire team for putting the event together and for the quality of teaching and effort they consistently bring to the community. Speaking at the University of Benin, my alma mater ,was a full-circle moment. It mattered to show students they can access real Web3 opportunities while still in school. If you’re a student or developer in Africa looking to build on @FlareNetworks, join the @FlareAfrica_ community. We’re focused on growing a strong African builder network. More coming.

Reminder for builders☀️ Session 16 of the Flare Builder Workshops with @FlareDevHub is on Wednesday: Auto-redeem FXRP → XRP on XRPL from any EVM chain. If you're building cross-chain UX, this is a must-attend. 🔗 Register: luma.com/d4q01xby

Growth comes from solving real problems, not following trends. XRPFi's rails are already here, it's just a matter of time before everyone else realizes this.

Level Unlocked - 75m $FXRP minted. 🦾

Less than 24 hours left to vote on FIP.14 and STP.11 ☀️ Make it count: portal.flare.network/voting Ends: Dec 5

LATEST: 🔥 Firelight Finance has launched an XRP staking protocol on the Flare network, introducing stXRP as a liquid token designed to earn rewards through a DeFi insurance model.

Step 1 - FAssets Step 2 - Firelight for FXRP yield Step 3 - Fully abstracted DEFI for XRP

We're partnering with @Firelightfi to unlock institutional-grade rewards for XRP holders. At Firelight's launch, the XRP Flare Account will allocate FXRP to Firelight. 🧵

🔥 We’re going live at 8AM EST! Access Firelight at firelight.finance.

Already over 1m minted in less than an hour

For over a decade, XRP has powered fast and efficient settlement at scale. FXRP on Flare extends that strength with composability, opening new growth opportunities: XRP as collateral, liquidity, and yield in DeFi. Mint today: fassets.au.cc/mint fasset.oracle-daemon.com/flare

This is a momentous moment and both the culmination of work we have been doing since the beginning and also the start of the next phase. One of many momentous things that will be coming in the next 12 months. I would really like to thank the whole team at Flare for helping get us to this point. I’d also like to thank our validators, infra providers, dapps & partners - without whom Flare wouldn’t function. Lastly I’d like to thank @JoelKatz whom I first spoke to in late 2018 and without that conversation Flare may not be here today.

@Ian_FSU29 @FlareNetworks @CommunityFlare @Burstnodes @aucc_official @uGaenn Our team is looking into this. There was a problem on OD's side, our agent 1h ago served one redemption with two transactions of 50 XRP each. This was an isolated event. OD is now fully liquidated, no funds were lost. We will restart the OD agent as soon as we identify the issue.

FXRP v1.2 is now live on Songbird. This isn’t just another release - it’s a major security milestone ahead of Flare mainnet. Backed by a multi-layered security process: audits, bug bounties, and live testing. Now focused on strengthening monitoring systems, upgrading agents, and expanding dApp integrations. Our commitment: delivering the security institutions demand.

The FAssets system upgrade is in progress, with a pause of up to 8 hours starting at 8am UTC. During this time, minting and redemption of FAssets remain unavailable. Once complete, FXRP v1.2 will be live on Songbird. No action is needed from collateral providers, token holders, or users - all FXRP v1.1 will automatically upgrade to v1.2. We’ll share another update as soon as the upgrade is finished and FXRP v1.2 is live on Songbird.
