Chain Signatures allow the signing of any transaction on any blockchain directly from your NEAR Account. Today, Chain Signatures launch for Bitcoin, Ethereum (and any EVM chain), Dogecoin, XRP, Cosmos, Polkadot, and more. Any ECDSA based chain is compatible. Solana and more launching soon™

With Chain Signatures, you can: Use your NEAR Account to interact with (almost) any chain Unlock bridgeless Omnichain DeFi Launch Omnichain tokens - one token with issuance on multiple chains And so much more. As of now, there are dozens of teams building with NEAR’s Chain Signatures tech, let’s take a look at some of them:

🚨ASTER CHAIN MAINNET LAUNCH IS NEAR Last month, Aster 🥷 Network confirmed its Aster Chain mainnet is set to go live this month. The protocol has dropped a teaser video indicating that the mainnet launch is near. The launch transitions Aster from a parachain-dependent model to a fully sovereign Layer 1 chain. Users expect the Aster Chain mainnet launch to spark a price rally. $ASTER is currently trading at $0.7155 as of this writing.

Build once. Interact everywhere. With Chain Signatures, NEAR lets you control accounts on any chain, from Bitcoin to Solana, with a single NEAR account. No wrappers. No bridges. No limits. FORK THAT to fragmentation. This is chain abstraction, for real.

We’re thrilled to announce that Avail has acquired Arcana Network, the leading chain abstraction protocol! 🤝 Arcana’s proven infrastructure and core team are now part of Avail, bringing chain abstraction, wallets, auth, and MPC to supercharge Avail Nexus. This acquisition is about solving fragmentation at scale: unlocking seamless cross-chain experiences, faster development, and apps that work everywhere without bridges. This means stronger liquidity flows, broader RWA & stablecoin adoption, and more resilient multichain infra. With Nexus already live across Ethereum, Optimism, Polygon, Arbitrum, Avalanche, Base, Scroll, Sophon, Kaia, and Hyperliquid — and Arcana scaling it to its fullest potential, we look forward to Mainnet launching soon! 🚀 Read more here:

CHAIN ABSTRACTION ISN'T REAL 💥 Featuring Vaibhav⚡️ 💥 Deeply Intents - Episode: 13 (🎙️,🎧) In this episode of Deeply Intents, we chat with Vaibhav⚡️ , co-founder of SOCKET.eth , about chain abstraction. VC recounts his journey from building Polygon POS to working on Plasma and ZK rollups at the Ethereum.org foundation to building Socket and Bungee. The conversation illuminates misconceptions around chain abstraction and replaces them with emergent mental models. In particular, we discuss chain abstracted applications, bootstrapping marketplaces, and the role of transmitters, solvers, fillers, and market makers in counterparty discovery and settlement. We finish by discussing the future of chain abstraction and playing a win-win strategy. 0:00 - Origins 5:21 - Building Polygon 6:56 - Shoutout to Cosmos 8:29 - Experience at EF & Polygon 12:47 - Builder recognition 14:58 - Scaling 20:06 - Chain abstraction in practice 24:16 - Chain abstraction rants 33:18 - Pivot from cross-chain to chain abstraction 36:18 - Take users to a global state 39:57 - Permissionless watchers 42:39 - Transmitters, solvers, fillers, market makers 47:47 - Chain abstracted swap applications 49:53 - Bungee Exchange 52:37 - Counterparty discovery 56:48 - Bootstrapping a marketplace 59:29 - Magic Spend++ 1:02:54 - aura 1:05:44 - Modular order flow auctions 1:10:34 - Positive sum games 1:14:21 - Advice for new developers
