Flare token distribution hours away

According to Flare's official Twitter handle, the FLR token distribution event is just hours away, scheduled to start today at 11:59 p.m. UTC. The Flare public distribution, as per the official documentation, will take place in two parts. The first 15% will be distributed during the token distribution event to wallets that held XRP on Dec. 12, 2020.

This will be before the FIP.01 governance vote, and at this token distribution event, exchanges and self-custody wallets will receive 0.1511 FLR for every 1.0000 XRP held.

Once 66% of the initial public token distribution is available to token holders, a governance vote on Flare Improvement Proposal 01 (FIP.01) will be triggered.

This includes changes to the payout structure and recipients of the Cross Chain Incentive Pool, as well as adjustments to the distribution and inflation of FLR, the Flare blockchain's native token.

As stated in a blog post, the total amount of tokens allocated for public distribution is the same regardless of whether FIP.01 is passed or not: 28,524,921,372 FLR. This equates to a ratio of 1.0073 FLR for every 1.0000 XRP held. According to Flare Network, the full FLR public distribution will be completed over 36 months.
