What Is stXRP?
When you stake XRP via Firelight, it’s wrapped into FXRP and deposited into a secure vault. In return, you receive stXRP, a liquid staking token (LST) that:
- Earns native yield from Economically Secured Services (ESS)
- Can be used across Flare’s DeFi ecosystem
- Is redeemable back to FXRP at any time after a short unbonding period
What Are Economically Secured Services (ESS)?
ESS are blockchain applications that pay fees to use Firelight’s XRP-backed security infrastructure. By staking XRP, you help secure these services and earn a share of the fees they generate.
Examples include:
- Insurance protocols
- RWA liquidity hubs
- DeFi primitives requiring capital guarantees
