Ethereum is one of the best platforms for developing smart contract. It’s also the one of now the most popular languages among developers for developing smart contract. But there are certain limitations of Etheruem like high gas fee, UX challenge, too many fragmented resources for developers.Many new platforms came recently to overcome the above limitations like Near, Celo, AVAX etc. Here in this article, we will discuss few things about Near blockchain from the developer perspective.
Late last year I got to know about Near Protocol. I have seen their development speed in almost one year.
The best part about Near ecosystem is about development speed. Recently they have made the Eth-Near rainbow bridge. They know most of the smart contract developer-first language is solidity. But, at the same time, they look for a better solution. It can be in terms of scalability, UX and many other things. And if some platform is providing all these functionalities, they have to on-board Eth developer on their platform. Any smart contract deployed on Ethereum can be ported to Near Platform via the bridge.
The Near-Eth Bridge does not require the users to trust anything but the blockchains themselves.
This trustless model result has below the latency for interactions across the bridge:
- For ETH->NEAR…
