Essential Social Infrastructure

Flux as a social fabric for any type of community.

By default, Flux enables communities to create their own independent social networks. It supports p2p group messaging, discussion feeds, wikis, and crypto-native functionality like token-gated access, in-app crypto transactions and payments, and the ability to connect wallets that work with any Layer 1 Ecosystem.

We made communities our focus for the following reasons:

  1. The main product feedback we received throughout testing was the desire for dedicated community spaces and tools

  2. The messaging and communication component of the decentralized coordination stack is still largely unfilled. Many privacy-oriented and web3 communities still rely on Discord, Telegram, and others, presenting a clear opportunity for a decentralized alternative to emerge.

  3. Stronger network effects, cultural cohesion, and execution of meaningful shared purposes

We believe the communication infrastructure we are building is an essential and missing piece to the coordination stack and our first step is to build a p2p messaging layer that can actually scale, while maintaining a high level of interoperability for future integrations.

Down the line, we envision all of the independent components of the coordination stack (social, governance, asset management, reputation, etc) will eventually become one app. Flux is in a unique position to achieve this through the composability enabled by our technical architecture.

It's important to emphasize that Flux will always provide an intuitive and familiar user experience. To avoid overwhelming the user, the default experience of Flux ships with the most familiar features and allows an optional level of complexity and customizability to be built out from there.
