Capacity
Make money move faster.
Get involved in the very fabric of the new financial system. Research pools, discern risk, and earn rewards.
Fully collateralized.
No compromises.
Flexa Capacity holds the onchain collateral that backstops and secures 100% of the digital asset volume processed by Flexa. Via collateralization, payments become faster and more powerful than ever before.
Without collateral, legacy payments take days or weeks to settle. Worse, they saddle recipients with unacceptable business risks, including fraud loss, exchange rate volatility, and more.
On Flexa Capacity, transfers of all kinds take less than 500 milliseconds. Related and embedded transactions can execute in parallel, completely eliminating slippage and volatility risk in any scenario.
Everything is different now.
It’s a new day… For payments, payouts, and everything in-between. Flexa Capacity combines powerful onchain technologies with real-world utility, to ensure that money always moves freely, securely, and privately.
Fully fraud-stopping
Quite literally, Flexa Capacity provides the “capacity” for Flexa to process payments and other transfers. If an app or network becomes compromised, the associated pool immediately signals increased risk, enabling collateral providers to stamp out fraud as quickly as it starts.
Entirely onchain.
Flexa Capacity builds on modern and audited onchain protocols, including Anvil’s time-based collateral pools and Alchemy Subgraphs. Because the next generation of finance deserves to be decentralized.
Intrinsically pro-privacy.
Traditional payments require significant amounts of personal data to underwrite each transfer. Through collateralization, Flexa Capacity enables onchain finality without any personal data in play. It’s the foundation for more private payments.
Instant and on-demand.
On Flexa Capacity, each of the networks and apps directly enabled by Flexa is secured by its own onchain collateral pool. These collateral pools ensure immediate, real-time liquidity for inbound and outbound payment flows at all times.
The only collateral that counts.
Flexa Capacity collateral is stored and denominated in Amp (AMP). Originally developed in 2020 by Flexa and Consensys, Amp today remains the only neutral, independent, and fixed-supply asset reserved exclusively for collateral use cases.
Incentives, thoughtfully aligned.
Whenever Flexa uses collateral to secure a transfer, the providers of that collateral earn pro-rata, time-weighted Amp rewards. And now, providers earn even more with Boosts—a bonus multiplier on select pools, every single month.
Risk-aligned rewards.
Flexa relies on collateral providers to actively discern risk across the apps and networks it supports. Pools can be selected to fit various strategies.
Be aware that pooling collateral carries inherent risks. You should only ever provide collateral you can afford to lose.
Time on your side.
In Capacity v3, collateral rewards are distributed on a monthly basis, and are now weighted by the length of time the collateral has been pooled.
The longer an address provides collateral to a pool, the higher the share of a pool’s total rewards it receives.
Now with Boosts.
Boosts help collateral rewards go even further. Each month, a new set of pools is selected in collaboration with Flexa partners for a bonus rewards multiplier.
Now, you can earn up to 2× rewards when you provide collateral to specific pools by the 5th of each month.
A community with a purpose.
We’re working to ensure a vibrant, onchain future for real-world payments.
