🚨The second batch of Songbird Test incentives is now claimable on the Flare Portal's "Emission" tab 🚨 As we enter the 5th week of Songbird testing, several adjustments are being implemented, such as dynamic agent minting fees and revised redemption bonuses. The changes to the rewards will only take effect for the next batch onwards. We encourage the community to follow the social media channels of participating agents for the latest updates. Additionally, we would like to reiterate and provide updates on three key points: 1️⃣ The FAssets beta retroactive airdrop will be distributed after the official release of the FAssets system on Flare, as stated in our initial announcement on October 10, 2024. This airdrop aims to reward participants who actively engage in Coston, Songbird, and Flare. 2️⃣ The open beta site (https://fasset-beta.flarelabs.org) will be sunset, and its code will be frozen. Further participation on this site will not be factored into the calculation of rewards. 3️⃣ The Songbird test continues, with ongoing optimization efforts as mentioned above. FDOGE support is scheduled to launch this week. Stay tuned for further updates and thank you for your continued participation and support in the FAssets system.

Over 1.4 million rFLR has been distributed to more than a thousand addresses, worth over $37,000 🔥 If you’ve redeemed FXRP or used SGB as collateral, you may qualify for rewards! How to claim ↴ 1. Connect with Bifrost Wallet on portal.flare.network and select the Flare network. 2. Click the “Emissions” tab and choose “Songbird FAssets.” Find out how rewards are calculated: https://flare.network/incentives-for-fassets-on-songbird 🔖 How rFLR works: rFLR can be earned simultaneously with monthly FlareDrops. rFLR vests linearly over 12 months, with 1/12 claimable and withdrawable as WFLR monthly from the Portal. Early withdrawal of unvested rewards incurs a 50% penalty. For maximum returns, wait for full vesting. https://flare.network/a-guide-to-rflr-rewards ☀️ New to FAssets?

Flare Emissions Committee Quarterly Report 🔖 During the last epoch, the Flare Emissions Committee allocated rewards to dApps to begin bootstrapping liquidity on Flare. The following dApps distributed rFLR during this period: SparkDEX BlazeSwap Kinetic Ēnosys These dApps emitted approximately 20.2 million rFLR out of the 60 million rFLR allocated for the quarter. The committee remains mindful of avoiding excessive emissions relative to the yields generated and aims to gradually increase rFLR emissions as total value locked (TVL) grows. The unused rFLR from this quarter will be reserved for future allocations. During this period, TVL increased from approximately $10 million to $15 million. Several additional dApps are scheduled to launch on Flare in the upcoming quarter and are expected to join the $rFLR program. ☀️ Learn more: https://flare.network/new-flare-defi-emissions-program-provides-industry-leading-yields/

FAssets Open Beta Update 🆕 As previously announced, the Ripple XRP Testnet was reset on Monday, necessitating a pause in the FAssets Open Beta. All testXRP tokens, including those within the FAssets Open Beta, are now invalid. To enable Open Beta participant to start interacting with FAsset Open Beta on relaunch we have airdropped a total of 31M new testXRP tokens to 31K beta participants today. The FAssets Open Beta will resume once the QA review is complete, which will be very soon. Get ready to test it out ☀️ Rest assured, all transactions and addresses interacting with the Open Beta are captured and will continue tracking once relaunched for the retroactive airdrop. More details to follow.

🎙 The FLR inflation rate adjustment is now live. The $FLR inflation rate is now 5% per year, capped at 5 billion FLR tokens per annum, calculated on available supply. This change promotes long-term sustainability for the FLR ecosystem. Key takeaways: • The FlareDrops rate is unaffected by the change. • Staking & Delegation Rewards are reduced. Community tools by Oracle daemon and Flare.space can help you estimate potential returns. Learn more:

I've delved deep into @FlareNetworks , and the inclusion of @GoogleCloudTech as a validator feels like an unstoppable force. Flare is set to ignite a blockchain revolution. Stay tuned for an in-depth technical thread! ☀️

First partnership announcement of the year - excited to contribute to the innovation happening @FlareNetworks !

EXCLUSIVE: @googlecloud has joined the @FlareNetworks as a validator and infrastructure provider. By @JamieCrawleyCD .

We’re honored to see our validator’s available space fill up so quickly. We’ll be spinning up another validator for Flare Network and hope to have it available in 1-2 days 🙏 Stay tuned!

To create #FAssets, we need agents. Agents are entities that provide collateral to back the amount of FAssets to be minted. They also repay the underlying assets when users redeem them. But how does the process work trustlessly? 🧵

We're happy to announce that Flare (FLR) staking is now available in Bifrost Wallet (v0.6.3). Read more at
