Near Protocol (NEAR) is a scalable, developer-friendly blockchain platform designed to provide a seamless experience for building decentralized applications (dApps) and smart contracts.

Using a unique sharding mechanism known as Nightshade, NEAR ensures high throughput, low transaction costs, and fast finality, enabling developers to create applications that can scale with demand.

The NEAR token is used for transaction fees, staking, and governance, allowing users to participate in network decisions.

With its focus on usability and scalability, Near aims to lower the barriers to entry for developers and users, fostering widespread adoption of decentralized applications in the Web3 ecosystem.
