Flare

The next global social network, powered by decentralised storage

Why we need Flare
Social networks cost our privacy and freedom.
Platforms harvest our personal data to sell to others and want more control over our lives.
Companies like Facebook record what you do, sell your private data, and threaten user privacy and democracy.


What is Flare?
Flare is a social network powered by decentralised storage. Today, social networks harvest your private data and use it to sell you ads. On Flare, instead of paying with your data, users contribute a small amount of storage to the network. Your data is encrypted and kept private on the blockchain. It's a social network powered and owned by you.


Our Team
We have an all-star team based out of the University of Oxford including the founder of a company accepted into the Y-Combinator program and ex-NASA and Microsoft researchers. Our team is experienced and qualified to take on this opportunity.



Read more about us in our whitepaper: https://flare-global.com/#whitepaper




Flare Token
Our token, FLR, is an ERC20 token, that will be used to purchase storage on the Flare network. When you own 1% of FLR, it would be exchangeable for 1% of the storage network. Over time, as the Flare social network becomes larger, the storage network will increase in size, meaning that each FLR will be exchangeable for more storage.

How the token sale works
We are selling 30 million FLR out of a total fixed supply of 100 million FLR. This will be sold in two portions, a presale (November 6th) and our main crowdsale (December 11th). Our presale will have a 30% discount, but requires a $25k USD minimum investment.  If any FLR remains unsold then it will be kept by Flare and distributed to early users over three years.

Hi Dimyumy17! Thanks for your comment. The next step after our crowdsale is to recruit an even bigger specialised technical team, so that we can make fast progress on our technical goals. You can see our full roadmap here https://imgur.com/a/ltRhr

Hi jingwao00! For the pre-sale the minimum is $25k. But for our crowdsale there is no minimum, giving a chance for everyone to participate.

I'm maybe missing something obvious, but how much flare do you get for your $?

Say I decide to put in 25k, what would be the amount I got back (I know there is a 30% discount, but what is the original price)?

Hi GMule!

So 1 ETH buys 390 FLR with the discount, so $25k USD gets you around 33,150 FLR at today's price for USD>ETH

The crowdsale price is roughly $1 = 1 FLR, the presale price is around $1 = 1.3 FLR

Hi everyone, I'm Reaal, one of the developers for Flare.

Flare is a social network powered by decentralised storage. We have a strong team based out of the University of Oxford.

Social networks today harvest your private personal data and use it to sell you ads. Companies like Facebook record your every scroll, sell your private data to third parties, and threaten both individual sovereignty and healthy democracy.

Flare intends to disrupt this method of monetisation, by building a social network powered by decentralised storage. On Flare, instead of paying with your private data, you contribute a small amount of storage to the network. Your data is encrypted and kept private on the blockchain.

Flare is a social network powered and owned by you.
