About FLASH
What is FLASH?
FLASH is a reinvention of Litecoin, built to scale for worldwide commerce and fast enough to handle everyday transactions. The flexible and easy to integrate core code allows exchanges and wallets to add FLASH to their platform within hours. With a settlement time of around 5 seconds and consensus within 2 minutes, anyone, anywhere can use the FLASH mobile wallet as easily as cash or credit card.
What is it for?
FLASH is designed to make it easy, inexpensive, and fast to transfer value worldwide. Imagine buying groceries, purchasing products online, and sending FLASH to friends and family in the blink of an eye, anywhere in the world, all for way less than a penny.
Who can use it?
Anyone can use FLASH, as it is designed for the common person and doesn't require a middleman, like a bank. FLASH remittance payments are nearly instant and with fees that are near zero, anyone can send FLASH worldwide or buy products or services locally with unparalleled convenience.
The FLASH Advantage
No Unfair Advantage
There is no developer slush fund, except the tiny amount of FLASH that was given to people who originally tested the platform.
Zero Inflation
All coins were issued to the community. No new coins will ever be issued. If you want some FLASH you will need to trade with community members or purchase it on an exchange.
Public blockchain
Public blockchain operated for the public good. FLASH has cut out the middleman to enable fast and inexpensive transactions.
Community supported
Anyone can develop on the FLASH blockchain. Build a project and decide how much you want to charge, while enabling direct payments to your FLASH wallet.
Eco-Friendly
FLASH doesn’t require energy intensive mining to create new coins because the entire supply is already in circulation.
High volume
FLASH focuses on high transaction volume because the ultimate goal is to support worldwide adoption.

Exchanges
FLASH supports any legal cryptocurrency exchange, including decentralized exchanges. Our community occasionally contributes funds to get FLASH listed. FLASH is ideal for exchanges, as the transfer speeds and transaction costs are very low and because it is based on LTC, integration. If you operate an exchange and are interested in listing FLASH, please contact [email protected] to receive a file with details on our source code repo for exchanges and a legal opinion regarding FLASH’s status as a security token (it’s a community coin, not a security).

Why Was FLASH Created, What Problems does it Solve?
FLASH is designed to be a decentralized, real world remittance platform, solving problems which BitCoin and Litecoin failed to address with respects to transaction volume, transaction speed, and transaction fees. It also solves the problems other coins have in regards to high electricity consumption and the mining 'arms race'.
