Dubai, UAE, tenth January, 2023, Chainwire
Flare, the blockchain for constructing purposes that use knowledge from different chains and the web, has efficiently accomplished its long-awaited token airdrop at 11:59 pm UTC on January ninth. The airdrop noticed 4.279B Flare (FLR) tokens distributed to hundreds of thousands of recipients, together with customers on Binance, OKX, Kraken, Bithumb, UpBit, Kucoin, BitBank, & extra, in one of many largest scale distributions in crypto historical past.
The airdrop is a big milestone for Flare as builders can now begin to make the most of Flare’s EVM and native knowledge acquisition protocols, the State Connector and Flare Time Collection Oracle. These native protocols, secured by the community, present decentralized entry to high-integrity knowledge from different blockchains and the web, enabling the creation of latest use instances and monetization fashions.
Hugo Philion, CEO & Co-founder of Flare mentioned,
“For the blockchain business to flourish, we want extra helpful decentralized purposes. Flare is tackling this via knowledge, not simply costs however transaction particulars, Web2 occasions and so on, in order that builders can construct purposes that present extra utility to a bigger group of customers.”
Hugo continues, “Flare’s goal is to allow builders to construct purposes that securely entry extra knowledge. This might allow new use instances to be constructed, resembling triggering a Flare sensible contract motion with a fee made on one other chain, or with enter from an web/web2 API. It additionally facilitates a brand new approach of bridging, particularly to carry non-smart contract tokens to Flare to be used in purposes like DeFi protocols.”
Flare’s State Connector protocols allow info for use securely, scalably and trustlessly with sensible contracts on Flare. This gives probably the most highly effective class of information on the community and allows extra cross-chain options to be constructed. The State Connector derives its security from combining a decentralized set of attestors with a binary forking protocol, which permits for a malicious majority of information suppliers to be challenged. In distinction to a proof of stake primarily based system the place knowledge suppliers are obliged to stake worth, the safety of the State Connector shouldn’t be restricted by the quantity staked within the system. Because of this the State Connector is invariant in its security relative to the dimensions of a transaction, this gives a safe system able to dealing with massive quantities of worth.
The Flare Time Collection Oracle (FTSO) makes use of the community construction to ship extremely decentralized costs and knowledge sequence to dapps on Flare with out counting on centralized knowledge suppliers. The FTSO is a extremely decentralized knowledge feed oracle, with nearly 100 impartial knowledge suppliers incentivized to offer dependable knowledge each 3 minutes.
The Flare token distribution represents the primary 15% of the complete public token distribution, with the rest to be distributed on a month-to-month foundation over 36 months. The tactic of allocation of the remaining 85% of token provide relies on the end result of a neighborhood vote on Flare Enchancment Proposal 01 (FIP.01).
