Vault grows more than sixfold from launch cap
The @ClearstarLabs earnXRP vault on @FlareNetworks has raised its deposit cap for at least the second time, with holdings now standing at 33.73 million FXRP, worth around $46.5 million. That figure is more than six times the 5 million token ceiling the vault carried at its December 2025 launch. Flare confirmed the latest cap increase without specifying the new limit.
earnXRP is the first fully on-chain yield product denominated in $XRP, allowing users to deposit FXRP, XRP represented one-to-one on Flare, into a single vault that deploys capital across a diversified set of yield strategies. The Clearstar vault takes a fully on-chain approach, deploying FXRP across lending and liquidity protocols on Flare, including Avant and Euler. The vault targets a 3% annual yield and charges a 0.75% management fee plus a 10% performance fee.
Flare Smart Accounts lower the barrier for XRP holders
Deposits route through Flare Smart Accounts, which remove much of the technical friction traditionally associated with cross-chain DeFi. They combine what would normally require multiple steps, such as minting FXRP, navigating decentralised applications, and managing activity across different interfaces, into a single unified flow, while self-custody is retained throughout. In practice, that means XRP Ledger wallet holders can participate without separately minting FXRP or managing a standalone EVM wallet.
Flare launched Smart Accounts v1.3 to simplify how XRP holders access DeFi by reducing a process that previously required multiple steps to a single wallet signature. More than 40 million XRP is currently earning yield through Flare Smart Accounts, while nearly 24,000 Smart Accounts have already been created. The repeated lifting of the Clearstar vault cap suggests sustained demand, underscoring the broader push to bring $XRP holders into on-chain yield strategies that were largely inaccessible before the FAssets system launched.
Only 0.1% of XRP supply is utilised in DeFi despite the token being among the largest cryptocurrencies by market capitalisation. Products like earnXRP are designed to chip away at that gap by offering a straightforward, non-custodial entry point into XRPFi.
