Added FireFaucet
We now fuel ETH_TEST (Holesky) and Fireblocks ERC-20 test assets with “Firetokens” for new test workspaces. This mitigates the need to obtain test assets from an external source.
Added Self-Serve Console IP Allowlisting
From now on you can restrict console access to specific trusted networks by allowlisting IP addresses, adding an extra security layer to their workspaces. Any changes to the console IP Allowlist require approval via Admin Quorum or an assigned group in Approval Groups to ensure a more secure and controlled process for managing IP restrictions.
Added Co-signer updates
Some updates in our Co-signer sphere:
- Co-Signer download links now available in all production environments.
- SGX Cosigner ver. 3.7.1 is now released.
- In-house Nitro Cosigner is now released.
- GCP Co-signer is now released.
- Remote commands through the Fireblocks Console are now supported.
Cold Wallet - Improved Transaction Information on the QR Tab
We slightly improved the UI of Cold Wallet to include more information about the transactions in the QR tab.
Added Tokenization by Default on Testnet
From now on, all testnet tenants will have access to Tokenization by default and do not need to fill out an activation form anymore.
Added Partial SOL Unstake (using Split)
You can now split a stake account into two smaller stake accounts to help manage your staked SOL and enable partial unstaking and withdrawals. Learn more here.
Added support for Bob
BOB is a hybrid L2 that combines the security of Bitcoin with the versatility of Ethereum. Learn more here.
Added support for Flow
Flow is a blockchain built for mainstream consumer applications, designed by the team that pioneered consumer blockchain experiences like NBA Top Shot, NFL ALLDAY, Disney Pinnacle, CryptoKitties, and more. Engineered for scale, security, and efficiency, Flow’s multi-role node architecture separates consensus from computation, enabling high throughput without compromising decentralization. Its resource-oriented programming language, Cadence, provides a secure and composable foundation for digital assets and smart contracts, reducing vulnerabilities while enhancing interoperability. Flow’s protocol-level account abstraction and atomic transaction execution streamline user interactions, making it the most developer-friendly blockchain for sophisticated applications in finance, gaming, and enterprise adoption.

Added support for Apechain
ApeChain is a dedicated infrastructure layer to power the ApeCoin ecosystem. At its core it is an Arbitrum Orbit chain. ApeChain provides developers and users with the best possible experience on the blockchain by focusing on ecosystem discovery, unique web3 rails, and top of funnel exposure. ApeChain utilizes $APE as its native gas token. This integration significantly enhances $APE's utility, fostering a robust and dynamic economy driven by $APE, and positions ApeChain as a premier platform. Learn more here.
Added support for Berachain
Berachain is a novel blockchain created to solve consensus mechanism incentive misalignment. For traditional Proof of Stake (PoS) blockchains, users have to lock their assets in order to participate in the security model and earn staking rewards. This results in incentive misalignment as the projects building on these blockchains want activity and volumes – which competes with the native security mechanism of staking which requires assets to be locked up. Berachain aims to solve this with their consensus mechanism, Proof of Liquidity (PoL). PoL is an extension of PoS with restructured incentives mechanisms to incentivize DeFi activity over asset lockup, while simultaneously adding security and decentralization to the network.

Uniswap Labs fee implemented for certain token swaps
The Uniswap Labs fee for token swaps is now 0.25% of the swap. Remember that this fee applies to certain token pairs and can be reviewed when executing your swap.

January 2025
Added New Blockchain NFT Support
We expanded our support for new NFT networks and blockchain environments
- SONEIUM Test
- SONEIUM Mainnet
- Base Chain (Sepolia)
- IOTEX Mainnet
Added Solana improvements
In 2024 the Solana network experienced significant growth in traction. Compared to January 2024, Fireblocks' Solana traffic has increased by 700%. Consequently, we now offer you various improvements in transactions latency, infra stability, throughput, fee experience, and more.
Added New Blockchain API
We have launched a new blockchain entity in Fireblocks. Until now, blockchains were only implicitly defined through base asset IDs. This change allows us to provide richer data and improved API capabilities moving forward. API Endpoints:
- GET /blockchains: List all supported blockchains
- GET /blockchains/{id}: Retrieve details for a specific blockchain
Added support for Codex
Codex is a crypto asset designed to take stable-coin finance from serving edge cases to serving the mainstream market. Learn more here.
Added support for Soneium
Soneium is a next-generation Ethereum Layer-2 blockchain developed to bridge the gap between blockchain technology (Web3) and traditional internet services (Web2). Designed by Sony Block Solutions Labs — a joint venture between Sony Group Corporation and Startale Labs — Soneium provides accessible, user-centric solutions that empower individuals, creators, and enterprises to build, connect, and thrive in a borderless digital ecosystem. Learn more here.
Added support for Filecoin
Filecoin is a decentralized storage network that aims to create a more efficient and secure way to store data. It uses blockchain technology to incentivize a global network of computers to store and share files. Learn more here.
Added support for Sonic
Sonic is a public blockchain designed to bring Web3 to a wider audience by integrating with popular social media platforms like TikTok and Instagram. It aims to improve upon the performance and accessibility of existing blockchains, with features like high transaction speeds and compatibility with Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM). Learn more here.
Added New Tokenization Empty State
We redesigned the Tokenization Empty State. This revamped landing page (empty screen) greets you when you first explore Tokenization. As we move towards a more self-service Tokenization experience, the new page is thoughtfully designed to guide you through your tokenization journey. It includes helpful prompts and educational videos aimed at simplifying complex processes.vCurrently, we’re kicking off with one educational video, and over the coming weeks, we’ll expand the video library to provide even more resources.
Added API Bypass for Screening + Usage Report Integration
We are launching two important upgrades that further enhance our compliance capabilities:
- Bypassing Screening Policy via API: You now have the ability to bypass screening checks programmatically through our API. This new capability provides greater flexibility for handling specific transactions while maintaining control over compliance workflows. You can find all the details in our API documentation: Retry Rejected Transaction with Bypass Screening Checks.
- Integration with Usage Report Service: We’ve successfully integrated our screening service with the usage report service. This ensures that all compliance activities, including screenings, are now accurately reflected in the usage reports. This is a big step towards providing you with better visibility into your compliance-related operations and associated costs.
Added Enhanced ABI Support
We are launching powerful new ABI features, designed to benefit both Tokenization and non-Tokenization customers. What is new?
- Four new ops-client commands which empower support teams to manage ABIs seamlessly, both within and outside the Tokenization framework.
- Self-serve ABI management. As Tokenization customers you can now use the Save ABI endpoint to fully handle your ABI needs directly.
Added new Swap entry points
It is now possible to discover the native tokens swap functionality more easily and to access the swap page directly from the assets and accounts pages in the Console. Selecting the new swap buttons will direct you to the native swap and will pre-fill the chosen asset and vault in the swap dialog.
