Gate News message, April 25 — Fluent, an Ethereum Layer 2 network, launched its mainnet and native BLEND token on Friday with $50 million in committed day-one liquidity. The network features blended execution, an architecture that allows applications built for different virtual machines to operate within the same chain state. USDnr, Fluent’s native stablecoin built through partner Nerona, generates T-bill yield that accrues to the protocol.
Fluent integrates Prints, a reputation layer launched in January that aggregates behavioral signals including Ethos scores and Kaito smart follower data into programmable profiles. Developers can use these profiles through Fluent Connect to identify and serve reputation-verified users. Seven applications launched on day one: Vena (a reputation-based lending protocol), Yumi (a buy-now-pay-later service), Pulse Predictor (an onchain polling protocol), Pump Pals (fantasy sports), Blend (yield-integration tool), and Sprout (DeFi strategy manager).
BLEND is a utility token for network operations, transaction fees, staking, and community signaling. The project conducted a public token sale from April 7 to April 13 on a major platform, offering 10 million tokens (1% of initial supply) at $0.10 per token, implying a fully diluted valuation of $100 million. The initial supply is set at 1 billion tokens. A community airdrop accounting for 0.71% of initial supply will be distributed at the token generation event with a 30-day claim window.
Fluent Labs has raised $11.2 million to date: an $8 million seed round led by Polychain Capital in February 2025, a $2.2 million testnet round in July 2025, and a $1 million public token sale in April 2026. The network uses rWasm, a low-level intermediate representation, to simulate EVM, SVM, and Wasm behaviors for execution, and employs FluentBFT as its decentralized consensus mechanism.
