Exchange Guides#

This section contains information and bits of advice for Exchanges willing to support the Flare blockchain.

The first thing you should know is that:

Flare is used just like Ethereum!

Even though the node code is different, Flare offers the same API as Ethereum so you can integrate with it in the same way.

Deploy a Flare Observer node to access the network.
Use the appropriate Chain ID.
Use standard Ethereum libraries like web3.js if you want.
