What is Flow?

Flow is a fast and affordable blockchain that is developer-friendly for developers who want to build decentralized applications (dApps), blockchain games, and digital assets. Flow uses an innovative architecture that allows for high performance without compromising decentralization. This addresses issues faced by traditional blockchains like Ethereum, which suffer from scalability problems and high transaction costs when the network is under heavy load. Additionally, Flow is designed to be more efficient than traditional blockchains and consumes significantly less energy than Bitcoin and Ethereum, for example.

How does Flow work?

Flow operates with a unique blockchain architecture that uses a multi-role structure to process transactions more efficiently than traditional blockchains like Ethereum and Bitcoin.
In this multi-role architecture, tasks that are normally handled by all nodes are distributed across four different types of nodes:

  • Collection Nodes: Organize and optimize network traffic to process transactions more efficiently, which improves speed.
  • Consensus Nodes: Determine the order of transactions and contribute to the decentralization of the network.
  • Execution Nodes: Execute transactions on Flow by performing the necessary calculations.
  • Verification Nodes: Verify that Execution Nodes are processing transactions correctly.

This system ensures higher speed and scalability without sacrificing security or decentralization. These nodes are also called validators. Users can act as validators by staking FLOW tokens, which is possible via a wallet like Flow Port.

On Flow, developers can build smart contracts using the Cadence programming language. This language is simpler and safer than other smart contract languages like Ethereum's Solidity.

As for the use cases of Flow: the network is mainly used for trading NFTs and gaming. Popular projects on Flow include:

  • NBA Top Shot (an NFT marketplace)
  • CryptoKitties (a blockchain game)
  • NFL All Day (an NFT marketplace for sports fans)

Who are the founders of Flow?

Flow was launched in 2019 by Dapper Labs. The team behind Dapper Labs includes Roham Gharegozlou, Dieter Shirley, Mikey Warkentin, and Alex Shih. They had previously developed well-known blockchain projects, including CryptoKitties, NBA Top Shot, and NFL All Day.

After the growing popularity of CryptoKitties on Ethereum in 2017 and the scalability issues that arose, the team decided to develop a new blockchain. This became Flow, a blockchain specifically designed for NFTs and blockchain games.

What is the FLOW token?

The native token of the Flow blockchain is the FLOW token. This token plays a key role in the Flow ecosystem:

  • FLOW is used to pay transaction fees on the network and to execute smart contracts.
  • FLOW token holders can stake their tokens to secure the network and receive rewards in FLOW tokens in return.
  • FLOW token holders can participate in the governance of the network and help decide on important upgrades.
  • FLOW tokens can be used to trade NFTs on connected marketplaces, like NBA Top Shot.
