This milestone allows XRP holders to utilize their assets in DeFi without selling their XRP.

XRP holders can now mint FXRP tokens and participate in decentralized finance (DeFi) activities on Songbird, the canary network for Flare. This development enables XRP holders to utilize their assets in DeFi without having to sell their XRP.

Prominent crypto enthusiast Hoos.crypto highlighted this achievement on X, stating, “Behold the FAsset portal where you can mint FXRP using your XRP and participate in DeFi.”

The FAsset portal serves as a gateway for users to engage in various 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 depicted in the image shared by Hoos.crypto, the system currently maintains a high level of over-collateralization, with collateral health exceeding 935%. This translates to $878,000 in total collateral backing the $93,000 in circulating FXRP.

Songbird, which serves as the testing environment for Flare, plays a crucial role in fine-tuning 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.

As mentioned in a Flare blog post, minting caps are set at $2 million per asset during this period. Additionally, to safeguard users, Flare Labs offers insurance coverage for losses up to $300,000. Active participation in Songbird’s FXRP ecosystem is also rewarded with incentives, including retroactive airdrops in rFLR tokens.

The minting process involves agents and collateral providers, which is evident in Songbird’s active collateral pools. For instance, Oracle Daemon, one of the top agents, currently manages $157,000 in collateral and generates rewards. These mechanisms ensure that FXRP remains overcollateralized, maintaining the security of the system for all participants.

Hoos.crypto further highlighted the significance of Songbird as a testbed, stating, “Songbird is the canary network for Flare used for game-theoretic testing with real value.” With features like decentralized exchange (DEX) on platforms such as BlazeSwap and Enosys, the FXRP ecosystem is expanding, providing liquidity and rewarding participation.

Ultimately, Flare Networks aims to become a liquidity hub for bridging assets across different ecosystems. FAssets like FXRP allow non-smart contract assets, including XRP, Bitcoin, and Dogecoin, to interact with smart contracts. This innovation unlocks multi-trillion-dollar markets while maintaining security through over-collateralization.
