Flare Finance, a pioneering decentralized financial protocol (DeFi) that harnesses Flare blockchain, is finally released in a closed beta version. Flare enthusiasts have begun testing its instruments.

25 explorers started Flare Finance stress testing

On Jan. 3, Flare Finance, the first-ever DeFi based on "XRP fork" Flare, released a statement regarding the beta testing of the product. Flare Finance invited 25 enthusiasts to take part in experiments within the newly released beta environment. Registration was opened in Flare Finance's Discord room.

The future DeFi ecosystem will consist of a FlareLoan lending/borrowing ecosystem, FlareX decentralized exchange, FlareFarm "yield farming" environment, Flare Wrap token issuance instrument and Flare Mutual, a system for peer-to-peer insurance coverage.

The system will utilize Spark (FLR), an asset that will be airdropped by Flare Network to all XRP holders. On Dec. 12, 2020, a snapshot of XRP balances was taken to schedule the distribution of 1 FLR to 1 XRP. FLR tokens will eventually be distributed in 2021-2022.

Flare is a Turing-complete blockchain based on Avalanche consensus. It will be EVM-compatible since its launch, so it will be able to empower the XRP audience with a programmatic smart contracts hosting platform.
