How is Flux different from Filecoin or Arweave?

Flux provides full cloud compute (running applications, containers, servers) while Filecoin and Arweave focus on decentralized storage. Flux is more comparable to a decentralized AWS EC2.

Can I swap FLUX without KYC?

Yes. SyntheticSwap supports FLUX swaps with no registration or identity verification.

A FluxNode is a server running FluxOS that participates in the Flux cloud network. Node operators lock FLUX as collateral and earn block rewards for providing compute resources.

What is Proof of Useful Work?

Flux's Proof of Useful Work allows FluxNodes to earn additional rewards by performing real computational tasks (AI, rendering, scientific computing) rather than just proving hardware exists.

What can I deploy on Flux?

Any Docker-compatible application can be deployed on Flux — websites, APIs, blockchain nodes, AI models, databases, and more. The FluxOS marketplace lists popular deployable apps.

About Flux

Flux (FLUX) is a decentralized cloud computing network that enables developers to deploy applications on a distributed network of nodes — similar to AWS or Azure but fully decentralized. Originally ZelCash, Flux rebranded to focus on its FluxOS cloud platform. FLUX serves as the native currency for paying for cloud resources, staking to run FluxNodes, and governance. Flux nodes run FluxOS, a Docker-based containerization system that automatically deploys and replicates apps across multiple nodes for high availability. The network has thousands of nodes worldwide, making it one of the largest decentralized cloud networks.

History

2018

ZelCash launches as a Zcash fork with GPU-mineable PoW and vision for decentralized infrastructure.

2021

ZelCash rebrands to Flux; FluxOS launches enabling Docker-based decentralized app deployments.

2021

Flux expands FluxNode tiers; cumulus, nimbus, and stratus nodes provide different resource levels.

2022

Flux launches Parallel Assets — mirrored FLUX tokens on Ethereum, BSC, Kadena, Solana, and other chains.

2023

Flux introduces Proof of Useful Work; node operators can run AI and computational tasks to earn rewards.

2024

Flux network hosts thousands of nodes; continues expanding cloud marketplace and AI compute capabilities.

How to Swap FLUX

Swapping Flux (FLUX) on SyntheticSwap is simple and requires no registration or KYC. Connect your personal crypto wallet, select FLUX as your source or destination asset, enter your receiving wallet address, and confirm the live exchange rate. Once you send FLUX to the deposit address provided, SyntheticSwap processes the exchange automatically and delivers the destination asset directly to your wallet. No personal information is collected — fully non-custodial from start to finish.

How to Store FLUX

FLUX is stored in the ZelCore wallet (the official multi-asset wallet supporting FluxNode operations) or Zelcore mobile app. FLUX also exists as wrapped tokens on Ethereum (FLUX ERC-20), BSC, and other chains. Ledger hardware wallets support FLUX. Multi-coin wallets like Atomic Wallet also support FLUX.
