FIP Files, chapter 10: the proposal that made "doing the bare minimum" on @FlareNetworks actually cost something. Before this, a data provider could show up reliably for FTSO but quietly skip a less profitable protocol, and face basically no consequence. FIP.10 fixed that with a simple mechanic: passes. Every provider starts at zero. Meet the minimum requirements across every active protocol in an epoch, and you earn a pass, up to a max of 3. Miss the bar on any single protocol, and you lose one. Run out of passes and still fall short, and you lose all rewards for that epoch, full stop. The staking bar is deliberately layered too. 80% uptime with 1M FLR self-bonded just keeps you eligible for rewards. Actually earning or losing passes requires 3M self-bonded and 15M actively staked, so smaller cherry-picking setups can't game the system as easily as fully committed ones. A twin proposal, SIP.04, rolled the same logic onto Songbird first, Flare's canary network, before it went live on mainnet in February 2025. Nobody sees this in a chart. But it's the reason FTSO data doesn't quietly degrade as new protocols get added, providers can't just pick the profitable one and coast on the rest.
