Thus, NEAR is developing a public blockchain based on Proof-Of-Stake with the implementation of sharding, due to which, in theory, there are no restrictions on network bandwidth. The developers intend to solve the problems of scaling and user experience, however, to begin with, they will attract other developers to create decentralized applications.
The NEAR team has already included developers from Facebook, Google and Niantic, and was headed by a former Microsoft employee Alexander Skidanov. Note that the early version of the NEAR sharding protocol is already ready, while their closest competitor Casper Labs has not yet introduced any working product.
The Textile startup attracted $ 1.5 million to create an IPFS- based solution that will allow users to interact with decentralized file storages in a completely new way. The developers intend to create an analogue of iCloud for Web 3.0.
