The startup has developed a blockchain platform that utilizes a WebAssembly virtual machine to enable the creation of composable applications in various programming languages, including Rust and TypeScript, on the Ethereum network. This platform allows developers to efficiently execute and interact with smart contracts while using their preferred programming languages, addressing the limitations of existing blockchain development tools.

Problem
Existing blockchain platforms often restrict developers to specific virtual machines (VMs) and programming languages, limiting flexibility and hindering the creation of composable applications. This creates barriers to entry for developers familiar with other languages and prevents leveraging the unique strengths of different VMs for specific tasks.
Solution
Fluent is an Ethereum Layer-2 (L2) solution that enables developers to build real-time composable applications using both Solidity and Rust, creating a unified environment where smart contracts can interoperate regardless of the VM they were initially built for. This "blended execution" approach allows developers to choose the best language and VM for each component of their application, leveraging common crypto tools and open-source libraries. Fluent aims to provide a versatile and scalable environment accessible through a single wallet, eliminating the need for bridging and reducing friction for users.
Target Audience
The primary target audience includes developers building decentralized applications (dApps) on Ethereum who require flexibility in programming languages and virtual machine environments, as well as those seeking to create composable applications that leverage the strengths of different blockchain ecosystems.
