FXRP Gains DeFi Access One Year After Launch
A year after FXRP launched, XRP holders can use a representation of their tokens in vaults, lending markets, and applications on Ethereum. Flare says about 130 million FXRP is now deployed in decentralized finance.

Flare Network marked the first anniversary of its FXRP token, highlighting how the programmable representation of XRP has moved into decentralized finance (DeFi) on both Flare and Ethereum.
FXRP Minting and Deployment
When FXRP launched on September 24, 2025, the initial cap of 5 million tokens was filled within four hours. One year later, Flare reports that 145.2 million FXRP have been minted, with roughly 130 million deployed in DeFi protocols.
Vaults and Staking Options
Vault products allow holders to allocate FXRP without managing individual positions. The MXRPY vault, launched in May, distributes deposits across options, arbitrage and on‑chain strategies, offering a mixed risk profile. Firelight introduced a staking solution where users deposit FXRP and receive stXRP, a token that represents the staked position. By March, Firelight’s staking product had surpassed 50 million XRP staked and raised its deposit cap to 65 million FXRP.
Access to Ethereum Lending Markets
FXRP can now be supplied as collateral on Ethereum lending platforms, enabling users to borrow the RLUSD stablecoin while retaining exposure to XRP. The process requires minting FXRP, transferring it to Ethereum, and managing the loan on that chain.
Improved Wallet Integration
Flare’s Smart Accounts combine FXRP minting and vault deposits into a single XRP Ledger signature, simplifying the user flow. The network plans to extend this integration to borrowing, allowing holders to obtain RLUSD loans without handling multiple cross‑chain steps.
