Matrixport lists Near Protocol

Near Protocol (NEAR) is a decentralized application (dApp) platform that supports developers in creating innovative and performant applications with low transaction fees. Its focus is to enable the open web and to facilitate end users to scale capacity, create sustainable business models and enhance security for decentralized applications.

Near Protocol continues to expand its presence in the Web3 community as it made a recent announcement in October 2022 with its new partnership with Google Cloud. The objective of this partnership is for Google Cloud to provide technical support to NEAR Grant recipients to build their Web3 projects and dApps. Google Cloud will provide the infrastructure to NEAR’s Remote Procedure Call (RPC) node provider to Pagoda (NEAR’s Web3 startup platform), which will help developers deploy code quickly and securely. This will help facilitate the development of Near Protocol.

NEAR is the native token that powers the NEAR Protocol, mainly used for staking and reward distribution to validators serving the network. It enables smart contract functionality and uses the Proof-of-Stake (PoS) consensus mechanism. Near Protocol’s all-time-high price peaked at $20.44 in January 2022 and is currently trading at about $2.93 (as of October 24th, 2022).

Near Protocol (NEAR) is available on the Matrixport app; alongside other blue-chip cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin (BTC), Ether (ETH), Solana (SOL), Stablecoins (USDT & USDC), and many more. You can swap, deposit and withdraw with NEAR.
