[1/🧡] Is this you? 🀨

β€’ Holder of #XRP since December 2020
β€’ Has never heard of $FLR before (Hello, #Spark?)
β€’ Has no idea what the fuss is all about
β€’ Slept under a rock for two years

Allow me to bring you up to speed w/ this crash course on @FlareNetworks and $FLR. πŸ§΅πŸ‘‡ Source: https://timestabloid.com/flare-ceo-updates-xrp-holde
[2/20] If you've been following this topic, you'll recall that there was once a #XRPL snapshot:

β€’ 12th December 2020, 00:00 UTC
β€’ #XRP Ledger index 60,155,580
. . . Source: https://xrpscan.com/ledger/60155580
[3/20] . . .

You may recall that you had to claim your #Spark coins by providing your #EVM-based $FLR address in the message key field of your #XRPL account.

β†’ claim period expired on #XRPLedger index 64,204,315
β†’ Message could be changed until 11th June 2021, 23:59 UTC

[4/20] . . .

Time has passed and the term "#Spark" has been renamed "#Flare ( $FLR )"

Furthermore, the initial purpose of bringing smart-contract capabilities to the #XRPL through so-called "F-Assets (#FXRP)" has been substantially revamped and broadened.

@FlareNetworks is no longer what it once was, and it is far more innovative than you may recall.

Let's read the most recent $FLR-#Whitepaper 2.0 and go through all the specifics πŸ‘‡

[6/20] πŸ‘‰ Introduction

#FlareNetwork is a Layer 1 [E]thereum [V]irtual [M]achine (#EVM) based #blockchain that allows for "data-interoperability" in the same manner as #XRP allows for "value-interoperability"

[7/20] . . .

This Means that @FlareNetworks enables πŸ‘‡

β€’ Secure Cross-Chain interoperability
β€’ Collateralization of decentralized apps
β€’ Literally "everything" revolving around #data
β€’ Smart-Contract capabilities for every #blockchain
β€’ True decentralized #Token-Bridging Source: https://blog.coinex.com.tr/flare-network-11-3-milyon
[8/20] πŸ‘‰ The Network & Token

The Native Token $FLR is used for πŸ‘‡

β€’ Payments
β€’ Spam Control (gas fees)
β€’ Governance Voting
β€’ Liquid Staking (Hello, #Cardano πŸ‘‹)
β€’ Collateralization of assets (e. g. for minting)
. . . Source: https://flare.network/flare-tokenomics/
[9/20] . . .

Importantly, the network enables programmable additions through "wrapped $FLR / #WFLR"

These #ERC20-#EVM-based #tokens enhance token usage by earning #FTSO incentives, providing collateral, and gov. voting. Source: https://docs.flare.network/tech/ftso/#delegation
[10/20] πŸ‘‰ #StateConnector

Uses 2 novel methods:
1⃣ Request-Commit-Reveal protocol
2⃣ Branching protocol

The #RCR protocol's objective is to collect user queries & proofs about #blockchains, whereas the branching protocol's purpose is for the network to evaluate these.

β˜‘οΈ Secured on-chain (#consensus) decentralized acquisition of #blockchain or "off-chain"-based external data may now be used to develop any type of #dApp or #App imaginable.

[12/20] πŸ‘‰ #FlareTimeSeriesOracle [#FTSO]

"The #FTSO is a dec. protocol that seeks to create accurate estimations of off-chain time series data on the #FlareNetwork"

❗️ To put it simply, we now have our own decentralized @CoinMarketCap, which can be accessed using #API-Calls. Source: https://flare.network/wp-content/uploads/FTSO-copy.p

[14/20] πŸ‘‰ #FlareGovernance

#Flare's token, $FLR, serves as the #Flare's governance mechanism.

Proposals for network governance can come from either the #FlareFoundation or the community through #Songbird [ $SGB ].

[15/20] πŸ‘‰ Post-Quantum Security

@FlareNetworks released a paper in regards to a hybrid post-#quantum digital signature scheme for the EVM.

It's about adding the so called "#deterministic CRYSTALS-Dilithium Level 2" sig. to the usual elliptic curve sig.

[16/20] πŸ‘‰ #LayerCake β€” #Bridging

To keep things brief for everyone:

β˜‘οΈ Bridges #SmartContract Tokens or #SmartContract-enabled #Tokens rapidly, #decentralized, and multilaterally.
β˜‘οΈ Insured and collateralized
β˜‘οΈ Unified liquidity (same token representation) Source: https://flare.network/layercake/
[17/20] πŸ‘‰ #FAssets β€” #Bridging

Add #SmartContracts to every Chain/#DLT:

β˜‘οΈ Use #DeFi with FDOGE on FBTC through Layer Cake (wait what? πŸ˜†)
β˜‘οΈ Trustlesslyβ€”without the use of any middlemen
β˜‘οΈ Spread risk across members in the system Source: https://flare.network/fassets/
[18/20] πŸ”„ To recap, nothing appears to be impossible in terms of #data utilization for the @FlareNetworks

Any type and form of #data may be conveyed, verified trustlessly and #decentralized, and used for #dApps while linking any #SmartContract Platform with on-/off-chain #data Source: https://www.teepublic.com/t-shirt/2436027-tl-dr
[19/20] β˜€οΈ Truely magnificent to say the least β˜€οΈ

With #ILP x #XRP x #FLR / #SGB linking every payment network/Ledger w/ every source of liquidity for faster payments and genuine public data- and #SmartContract interoperability, the sky is truly the limit. πŸ’›

[1/3] ▢️ What did I learn about $FLR?

β€’ The #airdrop will take place on January 9th
β€’ DO NOT FEAR: The first two epochs will be burnt
β€’ Before January 14th, one must wrap and delegate $FLR (Saturday)
. . .
[2/3] . . .

β€’ You must claim and reevaluate your delegations on @FlareNetworks twice a week
β€’ Monday and Thursday are the days to do just that: delegate before the next "lock" and claim your rewards from previous epochs.
. . .
[3/3] . . . ▢️ When used with $SGB (#Songbird)

β€’ Be active on Mondays, Thursdays, and Saturdays (move delegations, claim, and wrap claimed coins)

β€” OR β€”

β€’ Be active exclusively on Mondays and Thursdays, with Monday being the day for delegating and claiming on BOTH networks

[1/🧡] #XRPLedger's Green ♻️ Agenda 2030 β€” Part 2/2

#XRPL, the leading and first prominent #DLT to achieve πŸ’š carbon neutrality πŸ’š

Part 2 of this series will teach you all you need to know about the #eco-friendliness of #XRP, the digital asset. πŸ§΅πŸ‘‡ Original Source: https://www.xrparcade.com/what-is-xrp/
[2/26] ⚠️ IMPORTANT NOTICE!

This is typically a heated topic. That is why I will do my best to be neutral, clear, and factual. Expect no guesstimates or personal opinions on this subject.

Everything is stated exactly as it is! Source: https://www.asap.nl/wp-content/uploads/2020/03/Discl
[3/26] If you haven't already, I highly recommend reading part 1 of this lengthy series to get a feeling of the magnitude of the undertaking that @Ripple is leading in this domain with the help of the #XRPL. πŸ‘‡

@Michael30339531 @sentosumosaba @ConsenSys @stedas @Ripple 1/ As things currently stand, no obvious winner has been elected.

However, the following should be noted:
β€’ The majority of BIS research initiatives allude to a future DLT architecture.
. . .
@Michael30339531 @sentosumosaba @ConsenSys @stedas @Ripple 2/ . . .

β€’ Prefunding (nostro/vostro) may only be handled by utilizing a decentralized trustless blockchain such as #XRP (used by Ripple), #XDC (used by XinFin/R3), #ETH (used by ConsenSys), or #XLM (used by Stellar)
. . .
@Michael30339531 @sentosumosaba @ConsenSys @stedas @Ripple 3/ . . .

β€’ In my perspective, numerous #RTGS (such as #RippleNet) will compete and eventually be compatible with one another.

[1/🧡] I've been reading a lot about #XRPL #scalability recently.

Let me quickly go through how #XRPL performs and #scales on these metrics:

▢️ Scale up "vertically"
▢️ Scale out "horizontally"
▢️ High volume & High value TX
▢️ High value & Low speed Source: https://ripple.com/insights/building-a-more-sustaina
[2/17] πŸ‘‰ Asynchronous TX speedβ€”Scale up "vertically"

In contrast to #DAG-based systems, which operate in "chaotic order" and execute transactions in parallel, the #XRPL validates transactions in canonical transaction orderβ€”one Ledger at a time.

. . .
[3/17] . . .

❓ The approach for #DLT/#Blockchain-based systems such as #XRPL:
β˜‘οΈ "Payment Channels"

🧐 It's a sophisticated feature for transmitting "asynchronous" #XRP #payments that may be broken into extremely small amounts and paid in total order afterwards.

@sentosumosaba 1/🧡 I'm not sure if the news is worrisome in any form.
In fact, you are accurate (as always πŸ˜‰) that the #XRPL will not possess ALL THE MONEY, but it will be #interoperable with and #interconnected to ALL THE MONEY.

Here's some background: πŸ‘‡
@sentosumosaba 2/ #Partior is built on the private #permissioned #Ethereum-based @ConsenSys #Quorum #blockchain, which contributes to fragmentation rather than consolidation.
. . .
@sentosumosaba @ConsenSys 3/ . . .

For this reason alone, it is far inferior to payment settlement alternatives such as #ILP+#XRPL, which are open and #interoperability friendly. Source: https://consensys.n...

1/ Simple $SGB / $FLR use-case that does not yet exist and might make use of api-portal.flare.network/apis (No node is required):

1⃣ Build code that keeps track of your pending claim (GET via #API).

2⃣ Allow it to check the #FtsoRewardManager balances as well (GET via #API).
. . .
2/ . . .

3⃣ Send an e-mail or push notification / messenger app / #dApp notification when the balance is too low to claim, and again when it is refilled
3⃣‒1⃣ Provide a time estimate for when the smart-contract balance could be empty again
. . .
3/ . . .

4⃣ Send reminders about the expiration date and the time remaining to claim it (GET via #API)

πŸ‘‰ In conclusion:
β€’ Make it more intuitive (#UX) for individuals to comprehend when to be active and when it's a waste of time
