Flux Ecosystem

The Flux ecosystem is a comprehensive suite of Web3 infrastructure products and services built on decentralized blockchain technology. This documentation focuses primarily on cloud-centric products that enable developers and businesses to deploy applications on decentralized infrastructure. For additional Flux products—including wallets, AI tools, and decentralized exchange—see the More Products section below.

What is Flux?​

Flux is a decentralized computing network consisting of over 10,000 community-operated nodes across 66 countries, providing censorship-resistant cloud infrastructure that rivals traditional providers like AWS and GCP at up to 90% lower cost. The network is powered by the FLUX cryptocurrency and operates through a Proof-of-Work blockchain that coordinates resources, verifies transactions, and distributes rewards.

Core Cloud Services​

A unified portfolio of decentralized compute and storage products designed for Docker containers, AI workloads, blockchain validators, and any cloud-native application.

  • Decentralized Infrastructure: Applications run on 10,000+ independent FluxNodes worldwide
  • On-chain Coordination: Job scheduling and resource allocation verified on blockchain
  • Automatic Failover: Built-in health checks and redundancy maximize uptime
  • Cost Effective: Up to 90% cheaper than AWS/GCP with no egress fees
  • Enterprise Ready: Optional managed services with SLAs and 24/7 support

FluxNodes​

FluxNodes are the permissionless, community-operated servers that power the FluxCloud network.

  • Open Participation: Anyone can join by meeting hardware requirements and staking FLUX collateral
  • Tiered System: Three node tiers (Cumulus, Nimbus, Stratus) with increasing specs and rewards
  • Block Rewards: Nodes receive about 96% of every block reward (the rest funds the Flux Foundation) plus parallel asset mining. The reward launched at 14 FLUX per block and is reduced by 10% each year: 12.6 FLUX per block from block 3,071,200 (late October 2026)
  • Progressive Rewards: ArcaneOS nodes earn additional revenue share from FluxCloud applications
  • Quality Control: Nodes not meeting uptime or performance standards are automatically removed
  • Global Network: 10,000+ nodes across 66 countries operated by 560+ independent providers
