About

Flow is a fast, decentralized, and developer-friendly blockchain enabling the next generation of games, apps, and digital assets that power them. It is based on a unique, multi-role architecture, and designed to scale without sharding, allowing for massive improvements in speed and throughput while preserving a developer-friendly, ACID-compliant environment. Flow has been architected with a clear vision for the future of consumer Web3 development and meticulously designed to address the shortcomings of earlier blockchains, ensuring scalability, usability, and efficiency are not simply an afterthought. By incorporating critical protocol-level primitives, such as account abstraction and on-chain randomness, as well a powerful transaction model and scalability without sharding, Flow sets itself apart as a blockchain made for those interested in building apps for widespread adoption and developer-friendly innovation. With over 45-million consumer accounts connecting to experiences from the NBA, NFL, and Disney, the next killer app is being built on Flow.

Killer apps have the power to create and lead entire industries by addressing a pain point at the perfect moment. As an L1 blockchain designed for mass adoption and consumer-grade products, we believe the next breakthrough will emerge in the form of a Consumer App.Consumer Apps are consumer products that solve real-world problems by placing the end-user at the heart of the experience. Unlike traditional DeFi or “x-to-earn” products that can feel distant to the average consumer, Flow seeks applications that are accessible, intuitive, and valuable to millions (or billions!). Think ChatGPT for artificial intelligence (AI), and how it made AI approachable and useful for hundreds of millions, enabling even non-experts to create custom AI tools.Possible use cases: Lossless lottery or fundraising where participants stake and a single participant gets the staking rewards. Regenerative finance or positive-sum DeFi. Games that guarantee fairness. Autonomous worlds and evolving games with playability and fun being more important than things like play to earn, button mashing or airdrop speculation. Impactful Real World Asset tokenization. Challenges with human or resource coordination. Inefficient marketplaces. A Telegram MiniApp

Flow supports EVM-equivalency. This means that all of Flow's protocol benefits, such as fast transactions, low costs, and mainstream scalability, are available natively, without any additional code changes to solidity contracts. Flow bridges the gap between the wider Web3 ecosystem to achieve interoperability with Web3 and seamless integration with other EVM-compatible chains. Unlike Ethereum Layer 2 solutions, Flow offers a single, composable environment where dApps can interact without fragmentation. Adding bridges to the ecosystem will let assets move easily between Flow and other blockchains, expanding the functionality and reach of EVM apps. For example, a DeFi app on Ethereum integrating with Flow can benefit from lower transaction costs and higher scalability while maintaining connections with the Ethereum ecosystem. Or an NFT marketplace can easily interact with a DeFi protocol, enabling complex interactions like collateralizing NFTs for loans, all within a unified environment. Building a DeFi App on Flow could potentially create amazing reactions with consumer apps, and there is an opportunity to create new concepts like ConsumerFi. We welcome all innovative products based on the DeFi track. Possible use cases: PerpDEX, OptionsDEX, Lending Protocol, Crosschain/Cross VM Lending, Alternative asset lending, Yield Farming.
