The modular era has arrived and NEAR is set to take centre stage. Introducing the NEAR Data Availability Layer. Hot off the press at NEARCON23, NEAR DA is set to launch to offer secure, cost-effective data availability for ETH rollups. 🌐 NEAR DA marks NEAR's entry into the modular blockchain landscape with the lowest-cost DA offering in the Web3 market today. It's a game-changer for projects building Ethereum rollups. Posting rollup data on NEAR is 8,000 times cheaper than on Ethereum. With powerhouses like Starknet (Privacy arc) 🥷, Caldera, Fluent, Vistara Labs, Dymension, and MovementLabs joining the initial launch, NEAR DA builds upon NEAR Protocol’s 3+ years of secure, reliable blockchain tech with 100% uptime. 🛡️ "We are super excited about this opportunity. Starknet continues to evolve and mature, and we are happy to see the variety of options Starknet developers have," - from Starknet (Privacy arc) 🥷. 🌟 "High throughput and low cost are important for the social, gaming, and consumer use cases we're focused on. These are things NEAR DA does really well and can't be achieved using Ethereum DA," shares Eggs, Dino from Fluent. 🎮 "Developers, and by extension their users, win when they have the freedom to use high-throughput and cost-effective DA layers like NEAR," - Matt Katz, CEO of Caldera. NEAR DA is not just about cost savings. It's about scalability, reliability, and accessibility. It's about reliability and integration with the Ethereum ecosystem. Supporting Ethereum L2s and high-quality projects launching app-chains. It's about building a more inclusive and efficient open web for all. 🌍 Developers and founders building on Ethereum rollups interested in using NEAR DA can visit to get started. Let's build the future of the open web. Together! 🛠️
