Home to the world's most vibrant communities
Flow was designed from the ground up as a foundation for internet-scale protocols and applications that also require exceptional user experience.
Conceived by the team behind CryptoKitties, Flow was developed and stress-tested with top global partners and is now open for anyone to contribute to and benefit from.
How Flow works
Unique among crypto networks, Flow achieves dramatic improvements in speed and throughput by separating the jobs of a cryptocurrency miner or validator into four different roles, each with their own characteristics.
This means anyone with a reliable internet connection should be able to participate as a validator for Flow, at a variety of computational and financial tiers.
