The Problem

XRP is the largest non-yield-bearing major crypto asset by market cap, leaving billions of dollars of capital structurally idle. Existing DeFi insurance protocols rely on niche tokens for their backing capital, limiting cover capacity and trust.

The Solution

Firelight bridges XRP into Flare as FXRP, mints liquid stXRP against it, and (in Phase 2) directs that staked capital toward backing on-chain DeFi cover. Stakers earn cover-fee revenue while keeping liquid exposure to XRP.

Why it Matters

First XRP liquid-staking and DeFi-cover hybrid on Flare. Incubated by Sentora (the institutional DeFi platform formed from IntoTheBlock + Trident Digital) and backed by Flare. The cover layer leverages Sentora's quantitative risk infrastructure for granular pricing at protocol, asset and transaction levels.
