Chain Abstraction is NEAR 🔜
: The Monolithic *and* Modular Thesis

#NEARcon2023 saw a string of announcements pointing to NEAR's new direction with @0xPolygonLabs zkWASM, NEAR DA, account aggregation, and Fast Finality with @eigenlayer

You may ask, "where is NEAR headed?" 🟰 The Monolithic

On the one hand, NEAR continues as a full stack Layer 1 where execution, data availabilty, and settlement all happen within itself & scales via sharding and storage.

NEAR native dApps such as @SweatEconomy and @finance_ref utilize the total stack

@finance_ref @skywardfinance @pulsemarkets are live, with @fluxprotocol @FinanceOin MetaPool (liquid staking) and a slate of projects on @auroraisnear launching soon

A thread: Ref, the first AMM, reached 134 unique trading pairs with the $SKYWARD <> $NEAR pair becoming the first to reach $1 million in liquidity. This is without any liquidity incentives
