On 28 November 2023, blockchain research and development company Flare Labs launched a test version of the FAssets system on Flare’s Coston testnet. 

2023 年 11 月 28 日，区块链研发公司 Flare Labs 在 Flare 的 Coston 测试网上推出了 FAssets 系统的测试版本。

The FAssets system enables non-smart contract tokens such as Bitcoin (BTC), (XRP), Dogecoin (DOGE) and others to be used trustlessly with smart contracts on Flare, as per the latest information shared with Finbold.

根据与 Finbold 分享的最新信息，FAssets 系统使比特币 (BTC)、XRP、狗狗币 (DOGE) 等非智能合约代币能够在 Flare 上的智能合约中以无需信任的方式使用。

By minting these tokens into FAssets, it will be possible to stake them in exchange for yield or rewards in decentralized applications on the Flare network, and once the FAssets are on Flare, tokens can also be bridged to other networks.

通过将这些代币铸造成 FAsset，可以将它们抵押以换取 Fl​​are 网络上去中心化应用程序的收益或奖励，并且一旦 FAsset 进入 Flare，代币也可以桥接到其他网络。

“More than 70% of the total value of all blockchain assets do not have smart contracts and therefore can’t be efficiently deployed in DeFi. FAssets enable these legacy assets to be represented on a smart contract chain without requiring a centralized third party,” said Hugo Philion, CEO of Flare Labs. 

“所有区块链资产总价值的 70% 以上没有智能合约，因此无法有效部署在 DeFi 中。 FAssets 使这些遗留资产能够在智能合约链上代表，而不需要集中的第三方。”Flare Labs 首席执行官 Hugo Philion 说道。

He added:

他加了：

“For developers, it will be a new and trustless means to access new potential users and a large amount of currently untapped value.”

“对于开发者来说，这将是一种新的、无需信任的方式来获取新的潜在用户和大量当前未开发的价值。”

Mainnet on the way

主网正在路上

While an initial private Beta of the FAssets system will be conducted on Flare’s Coston testnet, a subsequent implementation will follow on the Songbird canary network before FAssets are launched on the Flare mainnet. 

虽然 FAssets 系统的初始私人测试版将在 Flare 的 Coston 测试网上进行，但在 FAssets 在 Flare 主网上启动之前，后续实施将在 Songbird canary 网络上进行。

Flare Labs and initial partners are adopting all required roles within the current system, providing the necessary infrastructure during the Beta. 

Flare Labs 和初始合作伙伴正在当前系统中采用所有必需的角色，在测试期间提供必要的基础设施。

However, the test assets employed during the test period will allow the simulation of market volatility to evaluate the system’s robustness under stress.

然而，测试期间使用的测试资产将允许模拟市场波动，以评估系统在压力下的稳健性。

As the Beta test progresses, external participants will be able to join.

随着 Beta 测试的进行，外部参与者将能够加入。

Once FAssets are live on Flare mainnet, in addition to earning DeFi yields, users and dapps will be able to earn FLR tokens from the cross-chain incentive pool as a reward for bringing sustainable value to Flare.

一旦 FAssets 在 Flare 主网上线，除了赚取 DeFi 收益外，用户和 dapp 还可以从跨链激励池中赚取 FLR 代币，作为为 Flare 带来可持续价值的奖励。
