Flare Gains Institutional Ground as Everything Blockchain Inc. (EBZT) Adopts XRPFi Standard

Flare, the Layer 1 blockchain focused on data and interoperability, has secured another milestone in institutional adoption. Everything Blockchain Inc. (OTC: EBZT), a U.S.-listed public company, has signed a memorandum of understanding (MOU) to integrate Flare’s XRPFi framework into its corporate treasury.

This move makes EBZT one of the first U.S. public companies to deploy XRP in a compliant, yield-bearing structure—joining Nasdaq-listed VivoPower International PLC (NASDAQ: VVPR), which earlier this year committed $100 million in XRP to Flare’s ecosystem. Together, these early adopters mark the rise of XRPFi as a new institutional standard for corporate treasury yield.

From Passive Asset to Productive Treasury Tool

XRPFi redefines how institutions can put XRP to work. Long viewed as a non-yielding digital asset, XRP is now being transformed into a productive financial instrument via Flare’s FAssets—a trustless bridging system that brings smart contract functionality to assets like XRP and BTC.
 
Through this structure, EBZT will convert XRP into FXRP and deploy it across decentralized lending, staking, and liquidity protocols, supported by Firelight, Flare’s decentralized restaking layer.

“XRP, now a roughly $150 billion asset, has been a cornerstone of digital finance for more than a decade, yet institutions have had few ways to make it productive. Flare changes that by enabling a compliant, on-chain, non-custodial yield framework designed for corporate treasuries. With VivoPower and now Everything Blockchain, public companies are validating that XRPFi is not just a concept but an emerging institutional standard.”

EBZT’s Strategic Shift

For EBZT, the decision represents more than portfolio diversification—it’s about reframing the role of digital assets in a public-company treasury.

“This is about unlocking the true financial utility of digital assets like XRP, not just as speculative holdings, but as yield-bearing instruments that can compound over time. Flare gives us the rails to do this in a way that meets the governance, security, and auditability standards required of public companies.”

Arthur Rozenberg, CEO of Everything Blockchain Inc. 

 By integrating XRPFi, EBZT aims to set a precedent for other listed firms looking to compliantly tap into blockchain yields.

Building the Institutional Layer for XRP

With multiple public companies already adopting XRPFi and millions in assets live on Flare, the network is emerging as the programmable utility layer for XRP in institutional finance. The forthcoming rollout of FAssets will further extend these opportunities to other non-smart contract assets, broadening the reach of Flare’s treasury-focused DeFi model.
