Flare and D'CENT bring one-flow institutional yield to XRP holders worldwide

Flare Updates

Flare and D'CENT Wallet are introducing a new yield access point for XRP holders worldwide — one that begins directly within a hardware wallet trusted by 330,000+ hardware users and 720,000+ app users across the USA, Korea, UK, Canada, and Japan, with billions of XRP held across its user base. 

Through Flare Smart Accounts (FSA), D'CENT users can now deposit XRP into curated vaults on Flare directly from their hardware-secured device. Two signatures on XRPL. No new wallet, no new chain, no FLR gas to manage — FSA handles it.

The integration ships alongside the XRP Alliance — convened by D'CENT, with Flare, Doppler, Banxa and Squid joining at launch. Flare's role in the Alliance: the programmable layer for XRP. FAssets gives XRP a trust-minimized onchain representation. Flare Smart Accounts (FSA) now turn XRPL signatures from a wallet like D'CENT into FXRP minted on Flare and deposited into an institutional-grade vault, in one flow.

How FSA works

FSA is what makes this possible. It lets an XRPL-native user reach EVM-based DeFi without ever touching Flare directly.

The deposit-to-vault flow has four steps. Only two need a signature, and both happen on XRPL from the D'CENT device:

  1. Sign the first XRPL transaction. This reserves collateral on Flare, identifies the vault, and pays the collateral reservation fee and operator fee.
  2. Sign the second. This sends XRP to the Core Vault on XRPL and pays the minting fee.
  3. FXRP mints on Flare, backed by the XRP from step 2.
  4. FXRP gets deposited into the user's chosen vault — automatically, in the same flow.

The wallet shows the progress — collateral reserved, mint confirmed, deposit complete — but nothing else needs signing after step 2. Withdrawals run the same way: sign on XRPL, the proxy account on Flare handles the rest.

Three things matter for the user:

  1. No new wallet, no new keys, no new chain. Funds stay under XRPL signature control. No separate seed phrase, no EVM address to manage.
  2. No gas token required. Flare gas is handled inside the flow.
  3. Fully non-custodial. No intermediary takes custody. Every authorization is anchored to an XRPL signature from the D'CENT device.

The architecture works because FSA treats XRPL as the control layer. The memo field on each XRPL transaction encodes what should happen on Flare. Flare Data Connector (FDC) relays a proof of that transaction to Flare Smart Account system, which executes the encoded instruction from a smart contract proxy assigned to that XRPL address. One EVM account per XRPL address, controlled only by signatures the user already knows how to make.
What FSA closes is the gap between holding XRP on XRPL and earning yield on Flare — a journey that used to mean multiple wallets, chains and steps, now done from the wallet a user already owns.

Why D’CENT and why now

Billions of dormant XRP sit across exchanges and wallets. Flare is building distribution to match, and D'CENT is the lead partner, especially across Asia.

D'CENT is one of the hardware wallets Korean XRP holders trust most, and its user base now extends into the US, UK, Canada and Japan. For these users, FSA is the first time they can earn yield on XRP without leaving the device that already holds it.

The Monarq vault, run by a FalconX-majority-owned asset manager, is now reachable directly from D'CENT at https://fsa.flare.network.

The programmable yield layer for XRPFi

This launch also advances a broader objective: positioning Flare as the default programmable yield layer for XRPFi.

FAssets handle trust-minimized asset representation. Flare Smart Accounts handle chain-abstracted execution. Wallet partners like D'CENT and Xaman handle wallet-native distribution. Together they form an end-to-end XRPFi access stack that supports both retail participation and institutional strategy deployment.

Monarq picking Flare as the venue for its first publicly distributed multi-strategy XRP vault says institutional managers see XRPFi as production infrastructure. And with D'CENT live, a large share of the most committed XRP communities globally now has a native, hardware-secured path in.

XRPFi is evolving into production-grade capital rails. FXRP is no longer just a bridge asset or a yield product. It's becoming infrastructure XRP can plug into across protocols, platforms and institutional venues.

Campaign Rewards

Flare and D'CENT are running a joint promotional campaign from May 19, 2026 at 1:00 PM UTC through June 8, 2026 at 1:00 PM UTC, with a $55,000 reward pool across three quests. The campaign is designed to help XRP holders move past first-time friction and start using Flare Smart Accounts.

Each quest is independent. Users may participate in any quest individually — there is no requirement to complete earlier quests to qualify for later ones. Eligibility for each quest is based solely on the requirements stated below.

Quest 1 — Onboarding. Purchase a D'CENT biometric hardware wallet via the campaign landing page. Eligible users receive $50 in XRP. Pool cap: $10,000.

Quest 2 — Holding. Hold or swap a minimum of 250 XRP in your D'CENT wallet. Eligible users receive $25 in FLR. Pool cap: $5,000.

Quest 3 — Deposit in Monarq XRP Yield Vault. Mint FXRP via Flare Smart Accounts, deposit into the vault, and maintain the deposit for 30 days. Minimum qualifying deposit: $1,000 USD in XRP value. Rewards are calculated per $1,000 USD of XRP value deposited:

  • $10 in XRP per $1,000 USD of XRP value deposited (cap: $50 per user)
  • $10 in FLR per $1,000 USD of XRP value deposited (cap: $100 per user)

Pool cap: $10,000 in XRP + $30,000 in FLR = $40,000

Inside the D'CENT Wallet, Flare Smart Accounts will appear as a featured application labeled "Idle XRP; Meet Institutional Yield," with a direct link to the Monarq XRP Yield Vault frontend.

Reward distribution. Rewards will be distributed to eligible users after the campaign concludes. Eligibility for Quest 3 will be verified by Flare using on-chain deposit and holding data. For Quests 1 and 2, D'CENT will share the list of participating user wallet addresses with Flare, which will then verify and distribute rewards directly to eligible users. A reward distribution update will be published once verification is complete.

Eligibility and terms. All rewards are subject to per-user caps and the aggregate quest pools stated above. Eligibility requires unique user verification, confirmation of the required on-chain activity, and (for Quest 3) verification of the minimum 30-day holding period. Flare retains final discretion, acting reasonably, in determining reward eligibility.
