Just woke up to noticed the 1000xcoin in my portfolio making a 3564% increase in price which to me a sign of a pump period, what are the indices that triggered such pump?
Apparently, Aurora went out to gate.io yesterday and on the Near blockchain network. Since the IDO, it's already 10x. The project is fundamental and solves the huge problems of the Ethereum network. So maybe this is exactly the token, waking up with which you can become a pump. |

NEAR Launches Nightshade Sharding, Paving the Way for Mass Adoption
Simple Nightshade
Today, the code for phase 0 was successfully deployed to the mainnet – it can take several hours or days for the code to be integrated by all network participants.
This phase, nicknamed Simple Nightshade, will kickstart a year of changes and additions to the NEAR blockchain that when complete, will make it super-fast, incredibly secure, and capable of onboarding millions of users into the world of Web3 without skipping a beat.
In this initial phase, we will shard the state, but not processing – meaning the blockchain will still be validated by all the network’s validators. The state will be split into four shards, significantly increasing the throughput of the network. Before sharding, blockchains would become congested as the project became more popular.
In this step, we have built a mechanism to split a shard into multiple parts through live upgrades, which will serve as the foundation for dynamic resharding in the future – more on that later. Meanwhile, because every shard is still validated by all validators, the safety guarantees remain the same. What does this mean for users? It means they get the same simple, easy-to-use experience, but with increased speed and performance. One of blockchain’s biggest challenges has been scalability: how does a network grow to handle increased activity without compromising on security? Our solution to that question is Nightshade Sharding.
While there are many new blockchains claiming to have thousands of transactions per second (TPS) and many layer 2 scaling solutions, due to their non-sharded designs, they would all hit an upper limit of what the network could handle eventually.
NEAR’s Nightshade Sharding, on the other hand, allows NEAR Protocol to scale linearly with the number of shards, thereby having the ability to satisfy the demand for transactions as more and more users start to use NEAR. Ultimately it prepares NEAR for mass consumer adoption of billions of users.What does this mean for developers? Similar to users, developers will not have to change existing processes in order to take advantage of the increase in speed and scalability.
Thanks to Nightshade’s homogeneous design, developers are not exposed to the details of sharding from the very beginning and they will remain unaffected by this upgrade. More specifically, internally we treat cross-contract calls the same regardless of whether two contracts are on the same shard. Therefore, developers should expect no changes to their experience of developing on NEAR.What does Nightshade Sharding change about the network’s performance?
While transactions per second are often used as a measure of a network’s speed, there are many other factors that go into how quickly a blockchain can verify a transaction.
At NEAR, network congestion, transaction finality and cost are all parts of the puzzle when it comes to assessing how ‘quick’ a network is. For reference, for token transfers, on one shard we can do 800-1000 TPS and with the upcoming sharding with four shards, we will be able to do a minimum of 2500-3000 TPS.
Ultimately, NEAR’s Nightshade is theoretically limitless (by increasing the number of shards) and can handle millions of transactions per second. An ecosystem primed for growth
In addition to the work on the protocol by NEAR Inc, NEAR Foundation is creating an ecosystem for developers, entrepreneurs, and enterprises to thrive with ambitious funding programs including $800 million worth of global ecosystem funding (now valued at $1.2 billion).
We’re also seeing a thriving gaming, metaverse, and NFT ecosystem emerging, not to mention a DeFi ecosystem that has gone from strength to strength since mainnet launch one year ago.
For consumers, we’re making strides forward to make the crypto experience even easier to use. From simple, language-based wallet names, to two-factor authentication, and staking baked right into the wallet.
This is just the beginning of a period of explosive growth at every level. We can’t wait to show you what’s coming next. |

NEAR Announces $800 Million in Funding Initiatives To Support Ecosystem Growth  The NEAR ecosystem is announcing a monumental $800 million in funding initiatives targeted at accelerating growth. The announcement, which includes the $350 million in funding announced by Proximity Labs last week – reported in Bloomberg – is designed to build on the momentum in the NEAR ecosystem over the last 12 months. While NEAR is giving all communities access to this record amount of funding, it will be focusing on Decentralized Finance (DeFi) teams who are actively revolutionizing and reimagining the way we interact with money. DeFi projects on NEAR have already hit a significant milestone of more than $150M Total Value Locked (TVL). NEAR has an ambitious goal to grow that number quickly and securely. NEAR is also actively looking for projects focused on NFTs, DAOs, and gaming.
NEAR’s next chapter is all about fostering growth by helping developers access best-in-class support and providing users with a frictionless experience using and navigating the web3 world. New funding helps accelerate this process. NEAR levels up Of the $800 million in funding, $100 million will be allocated to Startup Grant Pools. More than 20 startups will be identified and given $5M each in funding to redistribute to key stakeholders – the ecosystem ultimately decides who gets funding.
Some $250 million will be allocated to ecosystem grants helping existing projects further develop and scale. The remaining $100M will be allocated to Regional Funds: money allocated to foster the development of NEAR’s largest community regions in Asia, Europe, and the US.
Prior to this announcement, NEAR had already spent $45M across more than 120 projects, including Core Protocol Infrastructure Grants to the likes of: - Textile
- Liquality
- CronCat
- Kurtosis
- The Grain Programming Language
The sleeping giant awakes NEAR has been building on its roadmap steadily and securely. Later this year, it will launch the next phase sharding, nicknamed Simple Nightshade. NEAR will go from one to four shards, increasing scalability while not compromising on simplicity. Developers won’t have to add any additional code to smart contracts or adjust their platforms and users will continue to experience the same great UX, but at faster speeds.
Once complete, NEAR will be decentralizing further by lowering the barrier to entry to its validator network, increasing the number of validators first to 100, and then to a few hundred in Q1 2022. As part of this process, there will be further funding to projects helping the rollout and development of NEAR’s sharding technology. |

I would hold a fundamental projects that is not yet very hyped (and most likely will do it on the next Bull run). By fundamental, I mean L1 projects with excellent blockchain performance. There are many cool projects that are not worse than Solana in fundamental terms, but they are ten times cheaper, and I believe in such projects. It is especially worth considering the presence of the largest venture capital funds, and how quickly the ecosystem is developing. Good examples of fundamental projects with excellent venture capital funds and a rapidly growing ecosystem can be - ROSE, NEAR, EGLD, these projects are still very cheap compared to projects that have similar characteristics and fundamentals. I think the next bull run will be for them.
Hmm, a very reasonable point. Definitely, it is worth thinking about projects that expand the influence of cryptocurrency, making it more suitable for the general mass of people who know absolutely nothing about cryptocurrency and want to study it. I think Near is great for such people, starting from the cost of the main token of the system, ending with third-party ecosystem projects. So yes, any of these three projects must be kept in mind. |

Even after the launch of Eth2.0 and sharding, the transaction speed will remain at a low level, besides, the transition to PoW to PoS, taking into account such a large number of participants, will take too long (which I consider absolutely impossible in this situation).
Therefore, projects such as Near Protocol or Polkadot will remain on the network and will continue to solve Ethereum problems by developing the DeFi sector with a huge capitalization, which will unload the Eth network and after an indefinite period we will still be able to see the Ethereum Network at a speed of 100k tps, but will it be necessary by this time?
When Near has already launched sharding that allows you to save transactions at a price of $ 0.01 regardless of the cost of the token, while only increasing the tps within the network

Ethereum will remain in any case, too large capitalization and many network participants. But, there are cross-chains that will help solve Ethereum's problems and connect their ecosystems. For example Near Protocol. It already has a Rainbow Bridge between Eth - Near network allows transferring erc-20 tokens inside Near. already many Ethereum DeFi projects are engaged in the implementation of communication between these networks, so very soon we will see something big.

Proximity Labs, a research and development firm, announced the creation of a $350 million grants vehicle to help build decentralized-finance applications on the NEAR blockchain 
DeFi projects such as Curve, Sushi, Dodo and Kyber have launched or are in the process of doing so on NEAR’s blockchain, which is designed to be fast, secure and infinitely scalable. It’s backed by venture-capital firms such as Andreessen Horowitz’s A16Z, Pantera Capital, Electric Capital, Dragonfly Capital, Coinbase Ventures, Blockchain.com and Baidu Ventures.
There are now more than 1.3 million active accounts on the network, according to the statement. In addition, total value locked has exceeded $150 million, and includes NEAR native assets -- alongside Ethereum network assets such as Ether, USDC and Tether via its Rainbow Bridge connection. |

I'm probably the only one in the world who hasn't tried himself in cryptocurrency and moreover in such games. But now I want to try too, but I need some advice.
I do not quite understand the meaning of your question. Now blockchain gaming is gaining momentum and hundreds of millions of dollars are attracted to implement the ideas of many game developers, but this topic is quite complex and has not yet found a definite niche (there are only a few exceptions to the rule). If you are a beginner and do not understand what blockchain gaming is, you can try to find games within the Near Protocol ecosystem. Thanks to their blockchain, you do not have to pay a lot of money for any actions within the game (as happens with games on Ethereum). You can also watch games on BSC or Solana. |

Good day my fellow crypto lovers and welcome all the newbies here, crypto has been growing rapidly and taking over fiat, even some banks now accept crypto.
In general they are some crypto currencies with huge potentials that we might have good chances of making a lot from them or its ecosystem I know of a few but I'll like to get some more from you guys. Please before I start mentioning note; this Is not a financial advice and will be best for you to DYOR before taking any financial approach. These are;
PYR
NEAR
Solana
Ltx.... Etc
These coins can make greater returns from what I've been seeing already sol proved me right now PYR and NEAR broke their ATH.Under these I mentioned you can get cool NFTs (PYR,NEAR-paras.id) and some cool farming pools on ref.finance ... Sol did a metabuild proposal on twitter you should follow them for more opportunities. Note this is not a financial advice I urge you to Do your own research
Please add some cool coins to the list and mention it's cool future I'm here to learn.
You are absolutely right. The development of cryptocurrencies now directly depends on cross-chain projects. Now it is the real engine of the entire development of cryptography. After all, thanks to their technologies, many problems are being solved and the integration of cryptocurrencies into the real world will happen very soon. Opera browser integrates the Near blockchain for greater popularization of the cryptocurrency and convenience for its users to solve the problems of the overloaded Ethereum network. I think this is a perfect example of the development of Web 3.0 in 2021 |

Some time ago Was kinda wondering how does people earn from farming! How lucrative, safe and benefiting farming could be Buh at same time I saw many DeFi platform being exploited and many even rug pulled and always many newbies complaining of not knowing how to find thier way through farming, due to it's complexity ! This was a red flag which made me stayed away not until I found $Near and it's farming & staking platforms. Near protocol which is a seamless blockchain makes things very much easier for people, so it's DeFi app or platform takes advantages of it's blockchain advantages. My best among all is Ref finance! It keeps giving out so much juicy reward and has also built a strong trust with users. I don't really know if there are better opportunities outside of this, $Ref once gave 4x rewards and is currently giving out doubly farming rewards.
Shill me yours if you got something better for me
4x LP rewards this was a real breakthrough for the entire Near Protocol ecosystem. At that time, the trading volume and registered new wallets showed a new ATH. I think Ref Finance will soon delight users with such generous APR indicators in the future, which will lead to an excellent indicator of the growth of the entire ecosystem. also, do not forget about the integration of Aurora, which is already entering the market, which will lead to hundreds of new economic and technological projects in the Near ecosystem |

Please guys help me suggest coins to buy. I’m a student and I don’t really know much about crypto but I need the money for financial freedom and help my dad cover some of my school costs. Please guys.
A very difficult task. If you have heard about the Solana DeFi platform, then you probably know about the huge X of tokens inside this system. But now, to put it mildly, people are losing interest in solana and it is almost impossible to get such a big profit with a small investment package. Try exploring Near Protocol Ecosystem. With the advantages of the Near blockchain, you can feel comfortable in the entire Near ecosystem and look at a project in which you feel strong growth potential. |

Думаю да - лидер среди инновационных блокчейнов может смениться. Так бывало и раньше. Но тут речь именно про Ethereum, а не про Bitcoin.
Вообще если смотреть на гонку технологий, например, в смартфоностроении, то мы видим, что сейчас лидируют Apple, Samsung и Xiaomi.
Но разве раньше были такие лидеры?
Нет, изначально рулили европейцы (Nokia, Siemens, Ericsson), а им на смену пришли японцы (Sony, Panasonic, Sharp).
Именно они делали магнитофоны, видеокамеры, бытовую электронику - то есть все те технологии которые являются базовыми для смартфонов.
Их сменили южные корейцы - Samsung, LG.
А затем и китайцы Xiaomi, Oppo и т.д.
То есть технологический лидер может меняться.
Но с другой стороны, Ethereum сейчас очень силен. Силен прежде всего своими разработчиками - у других блокчейнов такой команды нет.
А собрать блестящую команду в децентрализованной разработке очень непросто.
Разумный и аргументированный ответ. Эфир силен, но без мата не сказать, как он многим надоел  |

AuroraDAO Approves $AURORA Token
AuroraDAO approved the creation of the official project token. $AURORA token has a total supply of 1 billion. The network of deployment is Ethereum, bridged to NEAR and Aurora using the Rainbow Bridge.Official token launch date will be the IDO date. IDO parameters should be approved by the DAO in an additional voting. Token Use Case $AURORA is a governance token, a portion of the token is allocated to the Community Treasury. The treasury is used to fund existing projects and project proposals through a Kickstarter–type platform: projects are submitting the applications, while users are voting for them. The details of the platform are to be decided by the DAO. Some of the following initiatives may or may not be implemented, as per AuroraDAO decisions:$AURORA token staking;
Incentives for token holders to take part in voting with the allocation of $AURORA from the Community Treasury;
Rainbow Bridge transfers fees;
Rainbow bridge fast transfers fees;
Aurora contract additional execution fees;
Aurora validator private transaction pool service;
Farming of locked funds in the Rainbow Bridge connectors;
Tokenomics
A portion of the tokens will be locked and to be subject to an unlocking scheme which will be determined by the DAO. The rest of the tokens will be used in various initiatives to develop NEAR and Ethereum ecosystems with the help of Aurora solutions.Aurora raises $12 million in its first funding round Aurora has recently closed its first private round of funding by raising a total of $12M. Aurora, an Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM) for scaling decentralized applications on NEAR, recently closed its first private round of funding by raising a total of $12M. In doing so, Pantera Capital, Electric Capital, Dragonfly Capital and other funds voiced their support for Aurora’s vision of becoming an Ethereum-scaling solution.
Over 100 investors took part in Aurora’s funding round, which was split between the ecosystem and venture capital buckets. The success of the raise reinforces Aurora’s appeal among the community and its objective to bring scaling solutions across the crypto ecosystem.
The Ethereum ecosystem bucket of investors features among others such projects as Zero Knowledge Validation, Global Coin Ventures, imToken, Chronicle. This representation, coupled with the use of ETH as the base token, illustrates Aurora’s vision of supporting and helping scale Ethereum projects. |

Over the last few days, I have faced many problems while transacting a few tokens. Even after I repeatedly deposited in a few wallets, at one point the transaction was going to stop. That is what is in Uniswap. I have deposited 20$ due to additional fee. But the fee needs to be above 50$. So has been interrupted to swap a few times. Currently I think the Ethereum platform is the most expensive. What do you think?
Try exploring the Near protocol ecosystem. This cross-chain completely solves the gas and swap problem of erc-20 tokens. Dex is available right now, which will completely solve your need for an exchange for uniswap with zero commission per transaction |

Привет ребята! Я понимаю что все любят ловить иксы и кататься на скам токенах как это было на юнисвап и прочих дефай площадках Но если серьезно, то за последнее время набирают дикую популярность проекты в которые вкладываются исключительно опираясь на технологический потенциал и децентрализованные решения многих проблем несовершенных, но популярных экосистем как эфириум. За последнее время популярность таких кросс-чейн проектов как Solana, Near Protocol, Dot, Matic, Hive очевидно возросла и многие наверное слышали про шумиху вокруг экосистем внутри проектов. Для тех кто в танке, подобные проекты преимуществами своих блокчейнов и масштабируемости предлагают пользователям и разработчикам лучшие, простые, более дешевые и быстрые решения для внедрения различных децентрализованных приложений внутри их экосистем. Мне кажется последующие несколько лет будущее развитие и внедрения web3.0 именно за такими проектами. Чистый хайп и золотой стандарт как для стоимости биткоина уже не сможет долго существовать вместе, рано или поздно криптомир сможет отказаться от монополии eth и btc. Некоторые из этого списка проекты были выдвинуты на номинацию лучший блокчейн года: Solana, Near Protocol, Dot, Matic, HiveЧто вы думаете по этому поводу? Составит ли реальную конкуренцию по объему эфириуму, в долгосрочной перспективе, какой либо из этих проектов. |

NEAR Foundation Awards Panther Protocol Grant To Improve Privacy Panther, the end-to-end privacy protocol helping to make DeFi regulation compliant has been awarded a grant by the NEAR Foundation. Panther will receive $40,000 to help develop and deploy the protocol’s privacy solutions on NEAR’s Ethereum Virtual Machine.
“We are thrilled to support Panther Protocol’s mission to provide zero-knowledge assets to the NEAR ecosystem and beyond,” says Josh Daniels, part of the ecosystem grants team. “The NEAR Foundation embraces the reality of a multi-chain future and recognizes the importance of privacy to ensure retail and institutional trading strategies stay confidential yet compliant.”
Panther Protocol was created to enhance DeFi by making privacy available in dApps and protocols by default.
“We are pleased to partner with the NEAR foundation to establish shielded pools and other components of Panther’s privacy-preserving infrastructure on the NEAR blockchain, taking one more step towards an interoperable, private, and compliance compatible blockchain future,” says Oliver Gale, co-founder, and CEO of Panther, about the partnership.
NEAR and Panther agree that privacy is an essential human right. Panther has received a grant from NEAR to explore the development of open-source privacy infrastructure (Rust libraries, APIs, and tooling) needed for a native Panther deployment on NEAR. This includes the deployment of Panther’s privacy solutions on NEAR’s EVM, Aurora.
Due to the current architecture and high volume of Ethereum transactions that pushed gas fees to all-time highs, Near’s Aurora is becoming an intelligent choice for developers that are looking for 1,000x lower gas fees, 50x higher transactions per second, and 2 seconds finality.
Aurora solves the current issues plaguing Ethereum while preserving the development ecosystem value Ethereum has. These factors were critical for Panther to prioritize the development of its scalable privacy infrastructure on NEAR’s blockchain. Follow Near and Panther Protocol on social media to be the first to hear about these announcements. |

Now, one way or another, due to the fast-growing segment of DeFi and NFT, the issue of implementing web3.0 and a faster blockchain is more acute than ever.
We all understand that the leading platforms were created with the support of Ethereum, but after this year, a lot of solutions to the problem of the Ethereum network for third-party applications appeared on the market. For example, Solana and its huge development in this area. Thanks to their blockchain, the project was able to break into a leading position. But everyone remembers the case of disabling their blockchain, which casts doubt on the work of their system and decentralization. But still, such a cross-chain project caused a real furor and was like a fresh breath of air for many crypto enthusiasts.
Let's put together in one sheet the most famous projects that are able to build the Internet of the future with their blockchain.
Ethereum - one way or another, today's project network is loaded so much that many users do not have the strength to endure the eternal change in the Gas price and other interruptions in working with transactions. Will Ethereum 2.0 change anything? I think not. After all, we have been promised to do this for a very long time, and ethereum has managed to breed real competitors during this time
ADA, Solana, Polkadot, Matic, Near Protocol. These projects already have technological solutions and a blockchain capable of processing tens of thousands of transactions per second, low fees and easy integration among developers.
As for the actual development of web3.0,
I recently heard the news that Opera Browser will implement the Near Protocol blockchain, which directly affects the implementation of smart contracts on the Internet. In addition, the Rainbow Bridge function will be available, which will allow you to transfer erc-20 tokens to the Near ecosystem.
This is just the tip of the iceberg of this huge toolkit for introducing smart contracts and blockchain technologies to the Internet, what do you think about this? Will Ethereum 2.0 remain a monopolist in this area, or will the network no longer be able to catch up with the fast-growing cross-chain market, because Matic currently has more active addresses than Ethereum.
There is a reason to think seriously.

|

Yes, your investments are definitely justified, because it is the technological potential and the solution of problems by introducing your multifunctional blockchain that are exactly the point that will bring the project to a high level. especially if you are an early investor, I think you did the right thing and all that remains is to build up your a portfolio with near.

Opera to add NEAR Protocol to its Built-in Browser Crypto Wallet The web browser’s hundreds of millions of users will be able to easily access and transact on the NEAR blockchain and with NEAR tokens within Opera. Sept 30, 2021 — Opera, the world’s first browser with Web 3 capabilities and a built-in crypto wallet, today announced plans to support NEAR Protocol, one of the world’s emerging blockchains, through a new integration via Opera’s native crypto wallet. The collaboration not only opens Opera up to a new audience of blockchain and crypto enthusiasts that are part of NEAR’s rapidly growing community, but it also gives application developers relying on NEAR increased reach through Opera’s massive user base. Opera users will be able to enjoy speed and scale with low gas fees 1000+ times cheaper than Ethereum. They will be able to transact NEAR assets directly within the Opera browser and experience NEAR’s permissionless Rainbow Bridge that supports transferring ERC20 and ERC712 tokens with Ethereum.
NEAR will become another Key Layer 1 blockchain to be incorporated into the Opera browser, making Opera’s non-custodial wallet truly multi-chain. Opera is the browser of choice for hundreds of millions of users worldwide. In 2018, Opera became the first major browser to include a native crypto wallet and Web 3 support. Opera’s novel features allow people to make transactions and interact with the blockchain-based internet of the future, also known as Web 3.
The company’s decision to introduce NEAR support to its wallet integration marks another step in the development of future-oriented applications, which talk to as many blockchains as possible, providing the most seamless experience to the users and is climate neutral. Integrating NEAR directly in the Opera browser’s crypto wallet means users will be able to easily send and receive NEAR tokens via a seamless user interface without any third-party browser extensions or separate wallet applications. Opera and NEAR are both aligned to making crypto accessible, easy to use and easier to build on. Through this browser integration, users’ crypto experiences will be significantly more enjoyable.
“Like Opera, NEAR’s easy user flow and reliable technology makes mainstream adoption of crypto frictionless,’’ says Susie Batt, Lead of Crypto Ecosystem at Opera. “BTC is blockchain version 1, ETH is version 2, and NEAR is version 3.”
“I’m excited about the mass market reach of Opera meeting NEAR’s rapidly expanding ecosystem of easy-to-use applications. NEAR is the first blockchain that’s ready for mainstream adoption. It’s important to continuously lower the barrier to adoption of the Open Web, and this is a significant step in that direction.” says Co-founder of NEAR Protocol, Illia Polosukhin.
NEAR is scheduled to be available in Opera’s browser for Android in the near future. |
