Fluent goes live with Ethereum L2 mainnet, BLEND token, and $50M in day-one liquidity!

Fluent has launched its Ethereum Layer 2 mainnet, debuting alongside its native BLEND token and a native stablecoin backed by $50 million in day-one liquidity. The simultaneous rollout of chain, token, and stablecoin is a deliberate cold-start strategy — seeding liquidity at launch rather than waiting for organic growth to build it.

For the Ethereum scaling ecosystem, the $50 million figure is a meaningful opening number. Bootstrapping liquidity is consistently the hardest problem for new L2s, and arriving at mainnet with that depth already in place signals serious backing and reduces the friction that typically stalls early user adoption.

BLEND's role as the native token alongside a purpose-built stablecoin suggests Fluent is positioning for a self-contained DeFi environment rather than relying purely on bridged assets from Ethereum mainnet.
