Andre Cronje’s Flying Tulip Gears Up for Public Sale

The DeFi application is set to launch its public sale on Feb 16, with the token live on Feb 23.

The DeFi super application space is facing headwinds following the Infinex token generation event (TGE) in January, but despite the adverse market conditions, Yearn Finance founder Andre Cronje is launching Flying Tulip’s (FT) public sale next week.

Flying Tulip confirmed the sale date on Saturday, and prediction markets are giving the platform a 50-50 chance of trading above a $400 million fully diluted valuation (FDV), albeit on low volumes.

Flying Tulip FDV Odds – Polymarket

For comparison, Infinex’s INX token is trading at a $121 million FDV, leaving ICO participants at a 60% loss from its $300 million ICO valuation.

Flying Tulip looks to fill a similar niche as Infinex, offering users a single platform that allows them to leverage some of DeFi’s most popular applications, including perpetual derivatives trading, spot trading, and lending.

However, Cronje has highlighted that the “Flying Tulip FDV is not standard FDV.” In a traditional model, FDV equates to the total supply multiplied by the token price, whereas the FT token includes an underlying put option, making it “closer to a NAV valuation than FDV.”

The protocol raised $200 million from the likes of Brevan Howard and DWF Labs in September, followed by a $25 million raise at a $1 billion valuation in January, $55 million via Impossible Finance, and $10 million via CoinList last week.

Flying Tulip is the YearnFi founder’s latest DeFi endeavor after Fantom, the Layer-1 blockchain that rebranded as Sonic. While Sonic started out hot, the token has struggled over the last year and is down 96% from its launch price, trading at a $160 million FDV.

Aptos Technology Concepts Compared to XRP Tundra’s Approach

Aptos Technology Concepts Compared to XRP Tundra’s Approach

The post Aptos Technology Concepts Compared to XRP Tundra’s Approach appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. The conversation around blockchain innovation often centers on scalability, speed, and utility. Aptos is a Layer-1 blockchain built on Move language principles. It has positioned itself as a network prioritizing parallel execution and developer flexibility. While its technical ambitions have generated attention, the project still competes in a crowded field of platforms racing to establish themselves as the backbone of decentralized finance. XRP Tundra, in contrast, has anchored its design around an immediate problem facing millions of XRP holders: idle assets that generate no yield. Tundra is not competing directly in the smart contract arms race. It introduces a practical application through its dual-token model and staking vaults. The approach brings staking, yield farming, and governance functions directly into the XRP ecosystem. That also without requiring holders to leave the XRPL environment. How Does XRP Tundra Differ from Aptos’ Model? Aptos has emphasized modular scalability and throughput, seeking to attract developers who need high-performance infrastructure. Its model, while technically impressive, depends on widespread adoption of its unique Move programming language and the creation of a vibrant dApp ecosystem. The success of this vision is closely tied to developer participation and long-term ecosystem growth. XRP Tundra addresses an entirely different user base and challenge. For years, XRP has remained locked in wallets with no direct staking or yield options. Tundra introduces Cryo Vaults, where XRP can be “frozen” for 7 to 90 days. Thus, it rewards holders with yields that can reach up to 30% APY.  Enhancements through Frost Keys, special NFTs that boost returns, add further incentives for long-term engagement. Importantly, XRP never leaves the XRPL, ensuring holders maintain the security of the native ledger while activating passive income streams. Where Aptos focuses on abstract performance metrics, XRP Tundra focuses on a tangible need of its core community. It turns…
