FluentThe History of Wasm in Blockchain
Inception of WasmThe web has come a long way since 1989. What began with simple, static pages has blossomed into a world of full-blown applications supporting billions of users. Because web “apps” required dynamic interaction with elements in the HTML document, JavaScript was introduced. It gained widespread popularity and was for a while the only programming language used in the browser. JavaScript as a standard was useful yet limiting. What if some developers didn’t know JavaScript? What if...
FluentUnifying VMs with Blended Execution
Existing general purpose blockchains support apps targeting one virtual machine (VM). They offer single execution of smart contracts written in the VM’s supported programming language(s). In order for users to interact with apps across different VMs, they must bridge between networks and manage various wallets and token standards. This introduces user friction and various trust and security assumptions based on how the bridges are designed. We propose a new paradigm to unify VMs: blended exec...
FluentIntroducing Fluent Public Devnet: Building Wasm and EVM-based Blended Apps
If you’ve been following the Fluent journey, you know that Private Devnet V1 was shipped about six months ago and Private Devnet V2 was shipped about four months ago. Wasm-based contracts were delivered first, EVM-compatibility was then enabled, and now for public devnet Wasm and EVM-based contracts can call each other directly. For the first time, blended applications composed of Solidity, Rust and Vyper contracts can be built on Fluent.The First Blended DevnetFluent Public Devnet is an L2 e...

We are thrilled to announce Fluent’s private devnet, a major step in our journey to help web3 onboard millions of developers and power the next generation of scalable apps on Ethereum.
We envision a future where developers can enter the Ethereum ecosystem with the programming languages, frameworks and tools they love most and where the learning curve to build onchain is minimal. Realizing this vision starts with shipping a product and getting developer feedback - hence why we’re so excited about today.
This also marks the very start of zkWasm execution on Ethereum!
This week we’ll roll out a private release to our first cohort of launch partners.
This is a preliminary developer version of the Fluent L2 explicitly designed for deploying and interacting with Wasm-based smart contracts, utilizing a compatible go-Ethereum execution environment.
During this period, we will closely monitor the devnet, run extensive stress tests, and address issues that arise. Our aim is to iron out wrinkles and iterate towards a seamless developer experience.
🥁 Introducing our initial launch partners!
Giza: Platform for verifiable ML models and AI apps
Composable Finance: Cross-chain interoperability and intent execution protocol
Paima Studios: Framework for gaming, gamification and autonomous worlds
Tashi: Blazing fast decentralised gaming
Turbo: Next-gen 2D game engine and marketplace
Archetypal Labs: Onchain gaming studio and autonomous world infrastructure
Gameplan: Sports metaverse with mini-games and exclusive fan interactions
Hyper Oracle: Programmable zkOracle protocol
Vistara Labs: Hardware availability layer for modular blockchains
Modular Cloud: Block explorer and serverless data retrieval APIs for modular blockchains
We’ll be working closely with each of these projects and adapting the Fluent stack based on their input.
Don’t worry, you have not missed the boat.
We started with an intimate group to make sure everything goes smoothly, but we’ll onboard more launch partners and builders on a rolling basis. This approach also allows us to constantly introduce fresh perspectives and diversity into the Fluent ecosystem.
If you’re excited about Fluent and the future of zkWasm on Ethereum, reach out!
If you’re not quite ready to build on Fluent but still want to participate, there are several ways to get involved:
Check out and offer feedback on our docs
Ask questions and discuss ideas on Discord
Follow and engage with @fluentxyz on X
One step closer to launching the Fluent L2 and our mission of helping millions of developers build onchain!
