Introducing the Road to Mainnet for Fluent, the zkWasm L2 bringing your favorite programming languages to Ethereum.
Here's where we've come and where we're heading 👨🍳
We are proud to announce the Private Testnet release of Fluent's zkWasm L2 🎉
Here's to making it easy for millions of developers to build on Ethereum 🥂
Today we introduce Fluent: The zkWASM Execution Layer for Ethereum.
Rollups unlock abundant blockspace, but less than 1% of developers can access it.
Fluent offers devs the freedom to build in any language - Rust, Go, Solidity, etc. - on Ethereum 🧵
Modular expansion from 20k to 20mm devs ↔️
We’re excited to announce Fluent’s upcoming integration with
@CelestiaOrg
.
With Celestia underneath ✨, nearly any developer can deploy a zkWasm execution environment as their own high-throughput blockchain.

Part 3/3: Fluent using
@eigenlayer
for native yield bridging
Fluent will have two ETH bridging options into the L2:
Option 1: Highest security
Option 2: Highest yield
The latter will support the economic security of

Fluent 🤝
@Ankr
We're thrilled to announce our partnership with
@Ankr
as our main RPC provider to ensure fast, easy & reliable communication with the Fluent Network.
Today we launched two key developments expanding the functionality of Fluent’s private testnet 🎉:
➡️ 100% EVM compatibility
➡️ An Improved Rust SDK
This brings us one step closer to unified smart contracts written in different programming languages 🧵
🚨Set a reminder!
@0xDinoEggs

@kayprasla
will be joined by special guest
@0xKartin
of
@HyperOracle
in our next fluent talk.
We'll discuss:
✅ HyperOracle's zkOracle
✅ Fluent l2
✅ Offchain data integrity via zkVM
Drop those questions in the…
This strategic partnership will converge Fluent’s scalability with HyperOracle’s zkOracle, enabling devs to build sophisticated and secure dapps with ease.
To learn more, join us as we discuss the ins and outs of this partnership!
High-throughput DA is the first step towards millions of chains
This includes zkWasm chains that start to blur the lines between web2 and web3
Build whatever, wherever ✨
Blobstream is now onchain, starting with

Mainnet.
Base L3s allow any developer to spin up their own high-throughput blockspace as easily as a smart contract

It’s Wasm Week at Fluent 💫
Our goal is to make zk-optimized WebAssembly execution on Ethereum a reality. But why Wasm? Let's explore its potential and key unlocks for crypto based applications.
We're super excited to partner with
@NEARProtocol
to enable secure, high throughput and cost-effective Ethereum rollups.
The future is extremely cheap and modular.
The modular era has arrived and NEAR is set to take centre stage.
Introducing the NEAR Data Availability Layer.
Hot off the press at NEARCON23, NEAR DA is set to launch to offer secure, cost-effective data availability for ETH rollups. 🌐
NEAR DA marks NEAR's entry into the…
"There's no need to modify their WebAssembly binary to recompile it. They just upload their WebAssembly binary as is, and they don't worry about stuff like rWasm..."
We’re thrilled to announce our partnership with
@ComposableFin
to simplify the cross-chain developer experience.
Composable leverages various
@IBCprotocol
connections to provide seamless, secure, and cost-efficient intent execution across all connected chains.

Bridging the gap to mass adoption in blockchain means breaking barriers for devs.
When tools are approachable, we empower a diverse range of creators, paving the way for widespread innovation.
Let's make the path to 1 billion users developer friendly
There's ~20k web3 devs today
The best way to onboard 1 billion users is to empower 1 million devs
And the best way to empower 1 million devs is to let them use tools they already know and love

So far, we've given a broad view of WebAssembly and how it's relevant to both web2 and web3.
In this thread we'll dive in:
◆ The problem Wasm solves
◆ Familiar use cases in web2
◆ Wasm ecosystem and tooling
"What Wasm unlocks is the ability to not have to program in the smart contract paradigm for certain application use cases."

Expanding beyond the EVM is a natural evolution for Ethereum. As a system gets more popular, developers find new use cases that push boundaries and require greater degrees of flexibility.
The beauty of modular design is that it makes this evolution positive sum. EVM, Wasm, Move,…
