An excellent breakdown of "why #NEAR in an age of Ethereum & L2s"? ⚡️ Proximity's @kendaIIc answers, "The beauty of this question is that, post the launch of #BOS, it’s the wrong question. The better question is “which part of our application should use NEAR?” [...] L2 project teams are now using NEAR to decentralize their frontend, run onchain and hybrid orderbooks, and even add social functionality to their dApps. It is no longer an either/or proposition. dApp developers should ask themselves, “is frontend decentralization necessary for my dApp?”, “do I need high throughput?” and “is my target audience net new to crypto apps?”. If the answer to one or several of those questions is “yes”, come take a look at NEAR!" Check out the full AMA by @DefiIgnas below

1/ Welcome to Day 2 of BTC January! Today, we’re exploring @NEARProtocol 's Chain Signatures and their impact on the Bitcoin ecosystem. Let’s dive into the technology and its implications in this thread about Chain Signatures: Chain Signatures allows any NEAR account or smart contract to sign transactions for various blockchains. This extends beyond simple transactions, enabling complex interactions across blockchain networks. The process involves: • Derivation Paths: To deterministically control foreign addresses from a NEAR account. • Multi-Party Computation (MPC): A network of nodes collaboratively signs transactions using a threshold signature scheme, ensuring no single entity has full control over the key. This architecture provides an innovative, decentralized method to interact with multiple blockchains from one NEAR account.

Takeaways from #ETHDenver2024 🦄 TL;DR Bullish vibes; loyal hardcore devs; modular chains, AI, DePin (decentralized physical infrastructure) as main trends; chain abstraction picks up steam; NEAR reputation up due to NEAR DA, zkWASM, AI, and chain abstraction ・。・。・。・。・。・。・。・。・。・。・。・。・・。・。・。 Insights from the Proximity team on the ground: 1. Definitely bullish vibes (everyone's talking about launching a new token). 2. Very positive energy from high-quality devs; though many are still struggling with funding (due to the bear) and looking for a community to belong to. > Special shout out to @buidl_dao who hosted a successful builder house full of excited, talented devs. 3. Hottest topics 🔥 : the modular narrative, #DePIN, AI, gaming, #Bitcoin L2s, and chain abstraction. 4. On the legal side: the future of DAO governance structures, on-chain AI, BORGs / @MetaLeX_Labs; taxation of DAOs; infosec and exploit law / @_SEAL_Org; network states versus nation-states; takeaways from the latest SEC/CFTC enforcement actions. 5. Chain Abstraction Day by #NEAR, Agoric, & Frontier Research saw a massive turnout with 1200+ attendees featuring speakers from @eigencloud , @anoma , @SweatEconomy; the "CAKE (chain abstraction key elements)" framework was announced. > many reportedly came out "chain abstraction-pilled" 💊 6. Food for thought: if the future is everything cross-chain and accounts are aggregated into one, soon TVL per chain may no longer be a relevant metric. Perhaps, TVS (total value secured)? 7. NEAR's reputation in the ETH community has heightened, especially thanks to NEAR DA, zkWASM, and decentralized AI. > devs are particularly excited about the potential of Chain Signatures for cross-chain interoperability cf. piped.video/watch?v=gCkOTjbJ…

Chain abstraction = ZK + DA + cross-chain finality + decentralized frontends + 🫱 Account Aggregation 🫲 From the article: "Users can have an address on all possible chains and move assets between them freely. [...] I call this “account aggregation” and will share more details about it in another post soon. NEAR will launch the next version of FastAuth in March 2024, which has mapping for NEAR addresses to EVM, Bitcoin, and other addresses." More to come soon™️
One small step for NEAR. One giant leap. For Web3. With Chain Abstraction, your current user size is not size. Learn why Chain Abstraction is the next frontier for Web3: near.org/blog/why-chain-abst…
