NEAR Partners With Wharton School’s Cypher Accelerator for Blockchain GrowthNEAR Foundation is pleased to announce an exciting new partnership with Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania’s Cypher Accelerator. Through this newly launched blockchain accelerator, decentralized app founders and developers will have access to world-class mentors, leading investors, premiere education and workshops, networking opportunities, as well as Penn’s vast talent pool, and more. Cypher Accelerator’s mission aligns with NEAR’s own. It’s committed to blockchain growth by supporting decentralized app companies from launch to branding and beyond. About WhartonThe Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania is the business school of the University of Pennsylvania, a private Ivy League research university in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. Cypher Accelerator DetailsThe first cohort of Wharton’s Cypher Accelerator runs from February to May 2022. The accelerator will be virtual and open to international applications. Some of the world’s leading investors are supporting Cypher, including Mark Cuban, Tim Draper, a16z, Pantera Capital, and others. https://medium.com/nearprotocol/near-partners-with-wharton-schools-cypher-accelerator-for-blockchain-growth-9f49ccb80023 NEAR Foundation and WOO Network Complete $5 Million Token Swap To Create a Strategic Partnership Between EcosystemsNEAR Foundation and WOO Network are announcing the completion of a $5 million swap of native NEAR and WOO tokens. This comes as part of an agreement for WOO Network to become a key builder in the NEAR Protocol ecosystem, leveraging its strengths as a leading liquidity network. The tokens have a five year vesting period in which the two platforms will collaborate and create shared value for their respective token economies. NEAR is a development platform built on a sharded, proof-of-stake, layer-one blockchain that offers drastically lower transaction fees while maintaining high throughputs. NEAR made headlines earlier this year when it announced a $800 million fund to accelerate building on their ecosystem. WOO Network has a proven track record of delivering value in DeFi, both as a liquidity source for dYdX’s top designated market maker Kronos Research, and as a recipient of Binance Smart Chain’s (BSC) Most Valuable Builder program. Last month, WOO Network deployed WOOFi Swap on BSC, a decentralized exchange that simulates WOO Network’s CeFi liquidity on chain. WOO Network also provides liquidity used in ParaSwap’s private pools, supporting market-maker Kronos Research. https://medium.com/nearprotocol/near-foundation-and-woo-network-complete-5-million-token-swap-to-create-a-strategic-partnership-439c041bc987

Flux, World’s First Fully Decentralized Oracle and Oracle Aggregator Launches on NEAR About FluxFlux is a cross-chain oracle and oracle aggregator that provides smart contracts with access to economically secure data feeds on anything. Flux brings this data on-chain using a sophisticated validation and dispute mechanism that relies on economic principles to keep validators honest. FLX is the native Utility Token used for staking within Flux Protocol by Validators. It is also used for governance of the protocol via the Flux DAO. Flux is live on NEAR Protocol and is deploying on major EVM chains in the following weeks. NEAR is thrilled to announce that Flux, the first cross-chain oracle for economically secured data feeds, is now live on the NEAR mainnet! With its cross-chain oracle platform, which features support for other networks like Aurora, Flux brings secured data feeds to any and all high-throughput data apps — like trading platforms that need access to lots of reliable data — on the NEAR blockchain. To facilitate their mainnet launch, the Flux team is also releasing the $FLX token, which will be vital in helping to power its oracles. “We were one of the first teams from Ethereum to make the jump to a new layer-one, NEAR, back in January 2019,” said Peter Mitchell, co-founder of Flux. “Jasper De Gooijer, co-founder of Flux, and I started building on NEAR before testnet was live and have worked closely with the team to design a best in class oracle to make NEAR the go-to layer one for economically secured DeFi.” Earlier this year, Flux raised $10.3m in seed round funding from leading investors like Distributed Global, Coinbase Ventures, Coinfund, Figment Ventures, and Reciprocal Ventures. https://medium.com/nearprotocol/flux-worlds-first-fully-decentralized-oracle-and-oracle-aggregator-launches-on-near-68a9003ac241

NEAR Launches 1,000 Teacher Education ProgramAs part of NEAR Foundation, the NEAR Education team is building a vast and vibrant ecosystem with the mission of making the open web accessible to everyone, regardless of experience, age, background, or native tongue. From lightweight, minute-long tutorials to the fully-fledged certification programs offered by NEAR University, a diverse range of expanding, community-led educational content illuminates the wonders of decentralization in a way that has never been more accessible. To help make mass adoption of Web3 a reality, the NEAR Education team is launching a unique and exciting initiative to onboard 1,000 teachers from all backgrounds and disciplines. Through both self-paced and instructor-led online courses, workshops, and fellowships, this army of educators will learn the ins and outs of blockchain technology and will, in turn, pass that knowledge on to others. If we can train 1,000 teachers—not just teachers, but those who simply enjoy learning and sharing—on all things NEAR, we can reach our moonshot goal of onboarding 1 million developers and, ultimately, 1 billion users. It’s that simple: 1,000 teachers → 1 million developers → 1 billion users. Ambitious? Yes. Doable? Let’s roll up our sleeves and find out. Interested in learning and teaching with us? Be sure to head over to NEAR University for more information. Why Create an Ecosystem of Teachers? It’s great that Web3 developers and other crypto-natives can grasp blockchain’s technology and potential—that’s what brought crypto to the edge of this major paradigm-shifting moment. https://near.org/blog/near-education-1000-teachers-program/

EMPYREAN has decided to award the airdrop to early Aurora users, especially TriSolaris users. 2.5 thousand $ EMPYR tokens (approximately 2%) of the initial offer will go to those who traded on TriSolaris before December 5 (the question is still being decided about changing the number to 10). The project aims to create an algorithmic decentralized reserve currency responsible for issuing and managing a fully collateralized, algorithmic, income generating, free floating stable asset - EMPYR. The project will be powered by Aurora EVM. https://twitter.com/empyreanfi/status/1469754212401647617?s=20https://t.me/near_ru/757

NEAR Launches Nightshade Sharding, Paving the Way for Mass Adoption Today is a momentous day for the NEAR blockchain and the NEAR ecosystem: The launch of Simple Nightshade, the first step toward a fully sharded and secure blockchain. Since NEAR released the design for the protocol back in 2019, it was always meant to be a sharded blockchain. However, when preparing for the launch in early 2020, we realized that there was no need to launch a completely sharded network.
Sharding is a very complex piece of technology — which we’ll be explaining in detail over the coming weeks on our Medium blog — and the network was brand new. It didn’t need to be capable of handling hundreds of millions of transactions at launch.
Since then, the average number of daily transactions has risen to more than 300k. With the emergence of more and more projects building on NEAR, the number of transactions is only going to increase in the coming months.
While the network is still currently using only 13% of the total capacity, we wanted to start the transition to sharding now to avoid any unpleasant surprises and ensure we can support all the applications on NEAR. Today is the start of that transition.more info there - https://medium.com/nearprotocol/near-launches-nightshade-sharding-paving-the-way-for-mass-adoption-b17066fbc330

NatWest digital business bank CEO leaves for blockchain group NEARLONDON, Dec 16 (Reuters) - Marieke Flament, chief executive of NatWest's digital bank for businesses, is leaving after two and a half years to join Swiss-based blockchain foundation NEAR as CEO, she told Reuters. The non-profit NEAR oversees the governance and development of its blockchain of the same name, which it says makes it easier for entrepreneurs and developers to build financial products, non fungible tokens (NFTs) and other products. There is exploding global interest in digital assets, with NFT artworks selling for millions of dollars, but also rising scepticism about the sustainability of the boom and practical use cases for the underlying blockchain technology. https://www.reuters.com/markets/europe/natwest-digital-business-bank-ceo-leaves-blockchain-group-near-2021-12-16/

How is DePocket’s collaboration with NEAR historical?Introduction:The NEAR ecosystem has partnered up with DePocket — the project has received a grant from them. Our app aims to combine as many as dApps on the NEAR system as possible. DePocket is an indispensable bridge to all of the NEAR ecosystem. It is our belief that NEAR and DePocket can grow together, and we’re excited about what this partnership means for both companies in the future. The goal of this project is simple: To provide easy access capabilities for people who want to use more than one dApp on the network without having to switch between accounts or apps constantly — which would be inconvenient for users, not practical for developers, and make it difficult for the whole community. How is DePocket’s collaboration with NEAR historical? NEAR has already established itself as a premier blockchain platform, and their funding validates their commitment to building a world-class ecosystem. What does this mean for DePocket?What does growth look like for us?How exactly will NEAR support DePocket?https://depocket.medium.com/how-is-depockets-collaboration-with-near-historical-af4d0052ad14

Merry Christmas from Trisolaris! ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=https%3A%2F%2Fmiro.medium.com%2Fmax%2F2000%2F1%2AQ-u0bixnsvz_MyNJ416h_w.png&t=665&c=GL3Hk_OCRAa25w) Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays from all of us at Trisolaris! It has been a whirlwind of a week, where we reached over $300M in TVL and started doing over $60M in volume per day with a huge influx of users and interest in the Near and Aurora ecosystems. We are extremely grateful for all of you who use Trisolaris as the primary DEX on the Aurora EVM engine and we will continue to TRI our best to make it the most enjoyable place to trade in Defi. This holiday season we want to specifically thank all of our early supporters — especially those of you who bridged to a new ecosystem, made the effort to TRI a nascent DEX in the early days when liquidity was low, slippage was high, and the UI was buggy.
Many of you have been in our telegram, discord, and twitter echoing the question: ‘Wen Airdrop’. Here is your answer: For any user who: Was an early Trisolaris user — provided liquidity or swapped on the DEX Was an early single-sided TRI staker
We will distribute 1,000,000 TRI to your addresses in mid January 2022. This distribution is retroactive only. The exact snapshot details and breakdown of which addresses are eligible, how much TRI per address, and info on how to claim will be provided in the coming weeks.https://medium.com/trisolaris-labs/merry-christmas-from-trisolaris-29671fda22af

I heard that Near protocol will be integrating to the Rubic Exchange platform. This is really good news as Rubic is fast becoming the leader in the cross-chain (multichain) space that will provide advantages to Near. Will Near be providing liquidity events once integrated?
