The NEAR Protocol has launched the world's first fully trustless Ethereum bridge


The Ethereum <> NEAR Bridge will pave the road for cross-chain interoperability in the future. The Ethereum <> NEAR Bridge, a trustless, universal protocol that opens communication and interoperability between smart contract chains, has been launched by NEAR Protocol, a scalable blockchain-based, developer-friendly platform for decentralised apps. This is also the first bridge that does not rely on external authority for security, instead relying on consensus.

The Ethereum network has seen increased demand as a result of innovation in the decentralised finance (DeFi) and non-fungible token (NFT) arenas, pushing transaction costs to new highs.

"By introducing the Ethereum <> NEAR Bridge, we are connecting the application and developer ecosystems between NEAR and Ethereum and enabling developers to leverage Ethereum assets and smart contracts within NEAR's fast, scalable and cost-effective environment," said Illia Polosukhin, co-founder of the NEAR protocol. “We can fuel and accelerate community growth by giving Ethereum users direct access to apps built on NEAR. We see the Bridge as a significant step in realizing our vision of a multi-chain, interoperable future, and our goal is to extend the same open access to other chains and expand the potential for further growth. "

To deploy, maintain, or use the Bridge, no additional authority is required. Without the consent of anybody else, anyone can build a new bridge, use an existing bridge, or participate in the upkeep of an existing bridge. The Bridge is also broad in that it allows any cryptographically proven information on NEAR to be used in Ethereum contracts, and vice versa. The Bridge's design is also fully decentralised and adaptable to future protocol updates on both sides.

The Bridge, which will be released in stages, will connect to numerous chains within the decentralised finance ecosystem by the end of the year.

 


 About NEAR Protocol

NEAR Protocol is a decentralized application platform based on blockchain technology that is ultra-scalable and developer-friendly. NEAR's platform delivers decentralized storage and compute that is both secure and performant enough to manage high-value assets like money and identity, placing the power of the Open Web in the hands of common people.

The NEAR Protocol employs a technique known as "sharding," which divides the network into several sections and allows for parallel computation. Parallelism dramatically increases throughput and allows the network to scale as the number of nodes grows. With NEAR, there is no theoretical limit to the capacity of the network.

Major NEAR contributors have won numerous world championships under the competitive program and have worked for major tech companies such as Google, Facebook and Niantic.

NEAR Protocol Financial Grant Greatly Broadens DePocket's Already Vast Integration Network

  DePocket Platform Acquires Major NEAR Protocol Financial Grant The DePocket platform announces the acquisition of a substantial NEAR protocol financial grant. This immediately offered the platform the capacity to construct and maintain NEAR ecosystems, allowing users to track their NEAR protocol portfolios within the DePocket dashboard, among other things. The DePocket development team was excited about the new connection and has already started working on making NEAR's functionality as easy as possible within the DePocket App. DePocket's objective, which is now in private sale, is to give customers with a highly complete crypto portfolio and NFT management and platform. DePocket aspires to be the market leader in terms of ease of use and user experience. Users may monitor, manage, invest, trade, and keep any cryptocurrency and/or NFT assets on a single user-friendly, clean, and succinct interface. With just 21 million tokens in circulation, the DEPO token will be the pla...

NEAR vs. Ethereum 2.0: What is the Future?

  NEAR is a next-generation proof-of-stake blockchain technology that is focused on practicality, scalability, and minimal operational expenses. The NEAR founders developed the "Nightshade" sharding method for the segmentation of transaction computation burden and the preservation of decentralisation. NEAR aspires to revolutionise the current Internet by giving end-users control over their data and resources. The founders of NEAR are committed to the overarching idea of blockchain, namely, user control and privacy, so that no huge organisation may manipulate user data and people can not lose their enterprises or private data due to governmental blockades. What you should know about NEAR is that it is a group of people that work together to solve problems. ·          It's a layer 1 protocol that allows the Open Web to be powered independently (not a side chain or supplemental system) ·          I...

What Technology does NEAR Protocol use?

  The crypto community has faced a significant scalability difficulty as dApps have risen in popularity. The ability of a blockchain to handle a high number of transactions at an acceptable speed and cost is referred to as scalability in this context. Due to the huge demand for Ethereum, scalability issues have arisen. While some argue for scaling solutions to be implemented on top of Ethereum (Layer-2 solutions), other projects, such as NEAR, have chosen to develop totally new blockchains with distinct design. The deployment of sharding is the NEAR Protocol's proposed answer to this scaling challenge. Before going into detail about what this entails, it's important to understand the three primary tasks of blockchain nodes: they process transactions, relay validated transactions and finished blocks to other nodes, and store the network's state and history. As network congestion grows, these jobs become increasingly difficult for nodes to do. By breaking or partitioning ...
