⚡️ A reminder of how Flare's infrastructure makes this possible.
It starts with XRP on the XRP Ledger.
Flare's Data Connector verifies XRPL transactions, while FAssets uses those proofs, FTSO price feeds, and collateral to mint FXRP on Flare.
That FXRP can then be staked in @Firelightfi, providing capital that helps cover eligible potential losses in @LidoFinance's vaults on Ethereum.
If a covered incident occurs, an independent risk consortium validates the loss before a payout is authorized.
Lido Earn: Depositors Protection Extended 🛡️
EarnETH and EarnUSD now have two layers of loss protection: @Firelightfi first, followed by the Lido DAO’s loss protection.
No action needed from depositors: protection applies at the vault level.
Here’s how it works:

🚨WSX NEWS: @FlareNetworks has been added to the XRP Ledger’s default validator lists, becoming one of 35 validators recognized by both Ripple and the XRP Ledger Foundation.
The lists also feature established participants such as Ripple, Arrington XRP Capital, and the Australian National University, placing Flare among a group of recognized validators supporting the XRPL ecosystem.

Firelight kicked off its second epoch this week. Adding Lido to the coverage model doubles organic yield. The headline staking rate is still ~3%, but the organic-to-incentive ratio is 2/3 to 1/3. Pretty big move in one month.

Most blockchains can only work with what’s inside their own network.
Flare lets applications put assets from other blockchains to work, use verified data from the outside world, and even perform computations on private information without revealing it.

XRP on Flare now works across:
1. Hex Trust custody, where clients mint FXRP
2. Ledger, moving XRP into Flare vaults with one XRPL signature
3. Hyperliquid, for XRP spot trading via FXRP
4. Derive, for XRP options and perps with FXRP as collateral

One less thing to worry about when building DeFi on Flare: price oracles.
FTSOv2 provides decentralized price feeds that update with every block (~1.8 seconds), with no additional oracle fee for onchain reads.
Available directly from your smart contracts.

And if you’re using AI agents to build on Flare, make sure they know what they’re working with.
Flare AI Skills gives agents like Claude Code, Cursor and Codex the context they need to work with FTSO, FDC, FAssets, Smart Accounts and more.
Use the skills and let your agent help you build.

Firelight brings a first layer of protection on @LidoFinance’s EarnETH and EarnUSD, ahead of Lido DAO’s own protection.
It absorbs eligible losses of up to 5.7% of EarnETH’s TVL and 8% of EarnUSD’s this period.
Join our livestream with Lido at 14:30 UTC today to learn more.
LIDO ADDS FIRELIGHT LOSS PROTECTION AHEAD OF DAO BUFFER
@LidoFinance’s EarnETH and EarnUSD vaults have initial 30-day limits of about $12.1M and $4M. Payouts depend on available collateral and can be zero.

Several six-figure trades on the stXRP pool over the past few days
Volume is picking up
Record volumes on the stXRP November market on Spectra.
A month ago, @Firelightfi launched its cover protocol, and premiums paid by its customers now flow into stXRP as an onchain rate.
That rate shows up across Spectra's stXRP markets as the purple line below. Its step pattern follows the rhythm of premium tranches arriving in the stXRP vault.
Yield Tokens (YT) capture the yield stXRP generates. Principal Tokens (PT) give holders a predictable outcome through a fixed rate on stXRP. With a live onchain rate to price against, trading on both sides of the market is picking up, with 30-day volume up 83%.
Trading activity shows up in the green line: the market's implied APY. Each PT purchase pushes it down, and each YT purchase pushes it up.
Spectra assets such as PT-stXRP are increasingly becoming building blocks for XRP-denominated products, used by curators and operators across DeFi.
XRP yield trading is taking shape on Spectra, and it's moving fast. Next up, the industry's first order book for XRP yield is coming to Spectra on @FlareNetworks this month.

Lido launches token swaps on Ethereum, Arbitrum and Base, powered by CoW Swap, with added Chainlink price protection for larger trades.

XRPFi is a product.
It is one of many products that are being built on Flare’s data.
The separation is:
Flare is the network for data.
Data powers the products.
As I’ve said before - everything is data.
Flare is the Connect Everything network.

Loss protection is increasingly built into DeFi vaults that manage digital assets. Today, Lido Earn extends its own: Firelight can absorb eligible losses first, then remaining loss can be absorbed by the Lido DAO’s loss protection mechanism.

Sentora curated the vaults.
Kraken is the distributor.
Firelight brings in the cover.
Backed by XRP and FAssets.
Secured by Flare data.

Flare's data infrastructure enables applications and economic activity far beyond its own network.
The Flare Data Connector verifies XRP transactions on the XRPL, enabling FAssets to mint FXRP on @FlareNetworks.
That FXRP can then be staked in Firelight to provide capital backing DeFi cover.
Now that capital is helping protect @LidoFinance Earn users on Ethereum.

Firelight is bringing onchain cover to @LidoFinance Earn, protecting Lido's EarnETH and EarnUSD vaults against onchain risks.
Terms and capacity are onchain and are reassessed every 30 days against each vault’s risk.

As tokenized assets, onchain lending and autonomous agents evolve, more financial decisions depend on information that lives outside the blockchain.
Smart contracts need reliable ways to access that information and verify its integrity before acting on it.
Flare provides several primitives for this:
• FTSOv2 delivers decentralized market prices with block-latency updates.
• FDC verifies transactions and events on external blockchains.
• Flare Confidential Compute, currently deployed on Songbird, enables verifiable results from computations involving private data.
These capabilities allow developers to incorporate external information directly into application logic, from collateral management and cross-chain payments to automated financial operations.
As applications become more autonomous and interconnected, how they obtain and verify information becomes an increasingly important part of their security.
