Flare Networks has launched FXRP on Songbird, its canary network, enabling XRP holders to mint FXRP tokens and participate in decentralized finance (DeFi) activities. This milestone allows XRP holders to utilize their assets in DeFi without selling their XRP.
Hoos.crypto, a prominent crypto enthusiast, highlighted this development on X, stating, “Behold the FAsset portal where you can mint FXRP using your XRP and participate in DeFi.”
Behold the FAsset portal where you can mint FXRP using your XRP and participate in DeFi like some sort of mofo and avoid selling your XRP!
Congratulations to @FlareNetworks and the entire community!

How FXRP Works
The FAsset portal provides a gateway for users to engage in DeFi applications such as trading, lending, and staking. FXRP minting operates on a secure, overcollateralized model, ensuring stability and trust. After a strong performance during beta testing, FXRP has maintained its popularity.
As shown in the image shared by Hoos.crypto, the system currently boasts collateral health of over 935%, with $878,000 in total collateral backing $93,000 in circulating FXRP.
Songbird, the Flare testing environment, plays a vital role in refining the FAssets system. According to Flare Networks, this environment allows real-world testing using assets like Songbird’s native token (SGB) and USDX as collateral. This testing phase ensures stability before broader deployment.
Rewards and Security Measures for Participants
According to a Flare blog post, minting caps are set to $2 million per asset during this period. Flare Labs also offers insurance to protect users, covering losses up to $300,000. Active participants in Songbird’s FXRP ecosystem are also incentivized with rewards, including retroactive airdrops in rFLR tokens.

The minting process involves agents and collateral providers as demonstrated by Songbird’s active collateral pools. For example, Oracle Daemon, one of the top agents, currently manages $157,000 in collateral and generates rewards. These mechanisms ensure that FXRP remains overcollateralized, securing the system for all participants.
Hoos.crypto further emphasized the importance of Songbird as a testbed, stating, “Songbird is the canary network for Flare used for game-theoretic testing with real value.” With features such as decentralized exchange (DEX) on platforms like BlazeSwap and Enosys, the FXRP ecosystem is gradually expanding, providing liquidity and incentivizing participants.
Flare Networks’ ultimate goal is to become a liquidity hub for bridging assets across ecosystems. FAssets like FXRP allow non-smart contract assets, including XRP, Bitcoin, and Dogecoin, to interact with smart contracts. This innovation opens multi-trillion-dollar markets while maintaining security through over-collateralization.
