Hello friends!

📣 WFLOW (wrapped FLOW) is live now on Uniswap and Sushiswap allowing DeFi users on Ethereum to easily gain exposure to FLOW without leaving the chain. BloctoSwap is providing the cross-chain bridge solution, Teleport, allowing anyone to transfer FLOW between Flow and Ethereum easily.

Blocto Teleport 👇
https://swap.blocto.app/#/teleport

With the introduction of WFLOW, the community can bridge their FLOW from Flow to Ethereum with just a few clicks via BloctoSwap, allowing them to expand the utility of their FLOW tokens to the DeFi ecosystem on Ethereum.

At launch, FLOW/wFLOW holders will have the ability to join the liquidity pool on Uniswap as LPs (liquidity providers) and earn a portion of the fees generated.

Link to Uniswap pair 👇

Sushiswap 👇

As more DeFi platforms integrate WFLOW within their offerings, many more use-cases will be unlocked. This is following fast in the footsteps of the the Chainlink Price Feed announcement.

👏 If you're excited about today's news and want to know how to wrap FLOW to wFLOW for Ethereum, then make sure you join Friday's Flow Discord Office Hours at February 11, 2022 11:00 AM ET!

The Blocto team will be very kindly joining us to give a demo of Teleport on Bloctoswap.

❗ This just in ❗

Deloitte Canada reveal minting an NFT on Flow takes less energy than a Google search or Instagram post 😱

Flow was built with sustainability front of mind, and we’re proud to share that Deloitte Canada validated Flow’s energy usage
📉 Flow, being Proof of Stake, uses significantly less energy than other protocols
⚙ Flow’s unique multi-role node architecture securely divides the processing between specialized node types, resulting in a significantly more efficient network than other blockchain architectures
⚡ The overall energy use of the network won’t increase significantly even if the activity increases by 100x or more

🌎 As we look to the future, we hope to see the industry continue to play a part in improving Web3’s impact on the environment.
