What is FIRE?

FIRE (Flare Income Reinvestment Entity) is the governed pool that collects protocol fees from FAssets, Flare Smart Accounts, Flare Data Connector, Flare Confidential Compute, and captured value from DeFi activity with protocol-owned block building.

What does it do?

Primary mandate: reduce FLR supply to the maximum extent possible — burn and buyback.

Secondary: reward asset issuers, support dApp liquidity, fund Foundation operations.

Who is involved? Initially, FIRE is administered by the Flare Foundation, with a committee assembled over time. FIRE can allocate funds only within its defined mandate. If the community deems FIRE unaligned with its interests, it may vote yearly to adopt joint governance.
FIRE has a primary mandate to reduce FLR supply as far as possible, but it also has secondary mandates around ecosystem growth.

How should the community think about that balance from day one?

Join us tomorrow. We're doing real-time AMA as well.

The $FLR governance proposal is live.

A lot of you have questions. Here are answers to 8 of the most prevalent ones🧵 Image
What is this proposal looking to improve?

Flare already has real activity: $160M+ TVL, 150M FXRP minted, 85% deployed in DeFi.

But FLR's economics weren't designed to capture all that activity. FLR was tied mainly to FAssets collateral and minting — real demand, but it didn't fully scale with the DeFi happening on top.

This proposal is designed to strengthen the connection between FLR and real network activity — through lower inflation, increased burn, and broader capture of protocol revenue.
What changes in the near term if the proposal passes?

• Inflation: 5% → 3%. Hard cap: 5B → 3B FLR/yr.
• Base gas fee: 60 → 1,200 gwei on average (20x - Transactions still cost a fraction of a cent.)
• Estimated annual burn: ~7.5M → ~300M FLR at current tx levels.
• Net inflation falls to ~2.66% — with growth yet to follow.

XRP doesn’t have native staking.

So where does XRP yield come from, and how does Flare unlock it on-chain?

Here’s the breakdown 👇 Image
Flare turns XRP into a composable, DeFi-ready asset via FAssets (FXRP).

Once on Flare, XRP can power lending, LP, structured strategies, and more—without losing its speed & reliability.
XRP yield comes directly from network activity by being used as productive capital.

Three broad buckets:

1⃣Options strategies
2⃣Delta-neutral strategies using borrowed collateral
3⃣Insurance underwriting (via protocols like Firelight)

Let’s go through the steps to make sure you’re ready to bridge🧵 Image
✅ Step 1: Get your XRP ready.

Have an idea of how many lots of FXRP you will be minting before transferring XRP.

Users will need a minimum of 13 XRP to mint 1 lot.
✅ Step 2: Set up your FLR wallet

For now, these two will allow you to connect to both the XRPL and Flare networks. (e.g. @bifrostwallet & @ledger)Image

Tired of blindly bridging or locking your XRP? 👀

With FAssets, minting is overcollateralized, verifiable & permissionless.

Here's how you can track the collateral ratio in real time. 🧵 Image
Before we dive in, here’s the golden rule of FAssets collateral -

Every FXRP is secured by:

1️⃣ Vault Collateral — stablecoins locked by agents to back minted assets.

2️⃣ Pool Collateral — FLR (on Flare)/ SGB (on Songbird) staked by agents + token holders as an extra safety buffer if vaults fall short.
How to read the dashboard 👇

1. FAssets overview

Circulating Supply = Total FXRP minted

On day 1 v1.2 Songbird launch, over $2.2M worth of XRP was bridged.

You can also check here if more FXRP is available for minting. Image

Day1: 750K FXRP on Songbird.

Early demand is clear, but our focus remains on stability and security first.

Now, everyone is watching to see what real demand looks like on Flare... Image
Want to test too? You'll need to wait for others to redeem their FXRP or for the cap to be raised.
