“Strong decentralized interoperability creates a much better financial system, much more liquid with substantially better characteristics for people taking part in it.” – Hugo Phillion
Who is our guest?Hugo Phillion is the co-founder and CEO of Flare Network, a layer one EVM smart contract blockchain with native interoperability protocols. Flare’s innovative architecture enables decentralised data oracles and cross-chain state consensus, providing developers with access to a wide range of on-chain and off-chain data to build more sophisticated decentralised applications.
What was discussed in this episode?
In this episode, Hugo explains how Flare’s two core protocols — the Flare Time Series Oracle (FTSO) and the State Connector — enable secure, decentralised access to reliable price data and cross-chain information. He discusses the importance of interoperability across multiple blockchains and data sources, and how Flare harmonises liquidity and interest rates across ecosystems like Ethereum, Cosmos, Polkadot, and more. Hugo also covers Flare’s governance structure, tokenomics of the FLR token, and the role of the Songbird Canary Network as a real-value test environment. The episode highlights Flare’s unique approach to bridging assets like Bitcoin into the smart contract space and empowering developers through grants and robust tooling.
