Fluent Launches BLEND on Solana Through Sunrise
BLEND, the native token of Fluent's blended execution network, is live on Solana today through Sunrise. Fluent is the first Layer 2 to run EVM, WebAssembly, and Solana Virtual Machine contracts on a single chain, built on the premise that execution environments should compose, not compete. BLEND's arrival on Solana is a TGE milestone for Fluent's community and the latest instance of a pattern taking shape across crypto: when projects from any blockchain need a public market, they come to Solana.
The First L2 Built for EVM, Wasm, and SVM Together
Fluent is an Ethereum L2 designed around a specific insight: EVM, WebAssembly (Wasm), and Solana Virtual Machine (SVM) contracts should be able to call each other directly, without a bridge in between. Fluent's blended model treats all three standards as first-class citizens on a unified chain. An EVM contract can interact natively with an SVM-compatible program with no intermediary layer required.
This is technically distinct from multi-VM approaches that run separate execution contexts in parallel. On Fluent, the three environments share state and compose atomically. A developer building on Fluent picks the language, not the network.
Fluent Labs, founded by Dmitry Savonin, raised an $8 million seed round led by Polychain Capital, with participation from dao5, Symbolic Capital, Builder Capital, and Nomad Capital. More than 60 projects are building across its ecosystem.
BLEND is Fluent's native token, used for staking, governance, and network incentives. Its public token sale closed April 13, with 10 million tokens sold at $0.10. Total supply is one billion BLEND. The BLEND TGE is among the more closely watched token launches of 2026, marking the first live market test for a blended execution network at scale.
Crypto's Most Active Public Market, From Day One
Though Fluent natively supports SVM and developers can write Solana Virtual Machine-compatible contracts without leaving their own chain, BLEND's listing on Solana through Sunrise reflects something distinct from that technical capability: a native Solana market gives BLEND immediate presence in the largest, most liquid onchain trading ecosystem in crypto.
Solana has become the venue where new tokens find price discovery, depth, and access to the broadest onchain user base in crypto. It is where aggregators index liquidity, where retail and institutional participants interact with new assets, and where the market forms a view on value. The teams building on Ethereum, on their own L2s, and now on multi-VM networks have reached the same conclusion: a Solana market is not optional for a token that intends to be taken seriously.
Through Sunrise, BLEND arrives with canonical market status and live liquidity from the opening minute of trading. Solana users can trade BLEND against any Solana-native asset without interacting with Fluent's L2 directly. Users can also bridge BLEND between Fluent and Solana in either direction through Sunrise.
“Fluent is Coinbase's second ICO. We are delivering BLEND to Solana at day one, minute zero through Sunrise. When a project runs its token sale on Coinbase, it is telling you something about where it wants to be taken seriously. Sunrise on Solana is where those listings land on day one.” — Saeed Badreg, CEO, Wormhole Labs
“Fluent is built for developers and teams who don't want restrictions on the programming languages and tools they can use. Developers have all different skillsets and preferences, and Fluent enables everything and everyone to work together in one place. BLEND launching on Solana through Sunrise means our community has access to one of the deepest onchain spot markets in crypto from the first minute of our TGE, and marks another step towards blending EVM and SVM worlds.” — Dino, CEO of Fluent Labs
