The Flare project is bringing smart contract capabilities like that of Ethereum to other networks, starting with Ripple. It also plans to bring this feature to Litecoin. Flare essentially aims to bring DeFi capabilities to networks. Additionally, Flare Token will provide functionality related to protocol management, collateralization and data provisioning via an on-chain oracle. One of the reasons why the project was delayed was the legal battle between Ripple and the SEC. The litigation process has been ongoing since 2020.
