The Provider Incentives Program is complete.
For two years, it bootstrapped the provider network while customer demand ramped up. @Fluence Providers contributed capacity, earned $FLT, and helped build the foundation.
Now providers can claim FLT on Ethereum L1 without vesting. That matters because infrastructure providers have real costs - electricity, hardware, operations. The previous structure created ongoing sell pressure that this program helped normalize.
With provider incentives done and investor vesting finished, FLT enters 2026 with less structural selling pressure than in previous phases.
This is not a narrative. It is a balance sheet change.
