Fluence

Cloud computing shouldn't require blind trust 👁‍🗨

We're excited to introduce the FLT Guardians initiative! A community-powered system where compute is tokenized, transparent, and independently verified.

Centralized compute hides problems

⚠️ Unexpected outages
⚠️ No visibility into performance
⚠️ No way to act when SLAs fail

Web3 infrastructure needs people who operate it to help hold it accountable.

That’s the role of Guardians.
Guardians are independent monitors in the Fluence network.
They receive $FLT by confirming performance, uptime, and latency of compute providers without depending on internal tools or user complaints.
Think of them as validators focused on tracking service quality.

What do Guardians actually do?

✅ Track provider availability in real time
✅ Publish public telemetry
✅ Catch SLA failures and trigger built-in penalties

It all runs on personal devices, with no middleman.
The economics behind it run on FLT 💸

🟡 Guardians earn FLT for detecting SLA breaches.
🟡 Users spend FLT to access discounted compute.
🟡 Performance is verified via uptime and latency checks.
🟡 All data is transparent and enforced on-chain.

Interested in becoming a Guardian?

The setup is easy.
🟢 Run a lightweight node (even from a phone)
🟢 Maintain a steady internet connection
🟢 No datacenter needed

Introducing the Pointless Program by Fluence 🌀

DePIN isn’t just about code. It’s about culture. It’s about community. It’s about showing up and doing the work. Fluence’s Pointless Program is built for that. For the ones who get it.

The Pointless Program is designed for both non-technical and advanced participants to join and support the Cloudless ecosystem by completing tasks, holding and staking $FLT, providing liquidity, inviting friends, farming boosts, and taking on other meaningful (and pointless) challenges. Learn more in the guide article.

Go to the website, connect your wallet and start earning now!

💰 Hold $FLT or $pFLT. Keep the tokens, earn passive points. The longer and larger the balance, the better.
🎯 Knock Out Tasks. One-off or daily: follow Fluence socials, post on communities, join Fluence events — each task bumps your total.
🤝 Invite Friends. Share your link. You get 10% of every point they rack up, forever.
🏆 Grab Boosts. Hit milestones, drop special referral codes, or join limited-time campaigns to multiply the points you’re already earning.

Dubai brought the heat, and so did Fluence during Token2049 week 🔥

From sky-high dinners to packed DePIN panels, we connected with the builders shaping DePIN and AI.

Highlights 👇

🟣 Shared our Cloudless vision at Staking Summit: no centralized clouds, just efficient Web3-native deployment.

🍽 Hosted “Dinner in the Sky” with founders, AI devs, and node operators. No slides, just real talk and incredible views.

💥 Hosted DePIN Day Dubai, the largest DePIN event in 2025.

💡 At Hack Season Conference, our co-founders Tom Trow and Evgeny discussed how AI scales with revenue rather than hype, and how DePIN delivers where traditional infrastructure often falls short.

🧠 One message rang clear throughout: Web3 infrastructure is already being built by people solving real problems.

Big thanks to everyone who came through, shared insights, and kept it real!

AI doesn’t scale on hype. It scales on revenue 💡

At Mpost Media Group's Hack Season Conference during #Token2049 , our co-founder Tom Trowbridge explains how DePIN serves as the connection between raw compute and real outcomes in AI. The focus remains on revenue-first thinking, not vanity metrics or vague ambitions.

DePIN plays a major role by enabling decentralized compute in areas where demand is accelerating, such as non-regulated, high-growth regions across the US, Europe, and Asia 🌍

We’re still early. Projects reaching $3–5M in ARR today could double or more as they meet growing cloud demand and compete directly with traditional providers.

The takeaway? Real-world traction emerges when decentralized infrastructure meets paying demand. AI + DePIN = growth that earns 💰

Real utility. Real revenue. Real adoption.
