Add NEAR and Near tokens (like USDC & USDT)
Vini Barbosa
Please, consider adding $NEAR and its fungible token (ft) standard to your services.
Some reasons why:
- NEAR is among the top 30 cryptocurrencies, with over $2Bn in market cap;
- It's the second-largest chain (after Solana) in monthly active addresses in June (~48M);
- Ongoing marketing campaigns have increased Near's social activity;
- Ongoing improvements/proposals and dev activity are attracting devs/users/market interest recently;
- Near supports USDC and USDT natively and ranks 13th in stablecoin market cap among all chains;
- The network has one of the fastest finalities (600ms block time and ~1.2s finality);
- The network has one of the lowest average gas fees per transaction (super accessible);
- I use NEAR as my go-to chain to use stablecoins, and would be great to use them directly with Spritz
- Near has one of the best documentations I've seen, making it super easy to integrate;
- Near is also connecting different chains with Chain Abstraction features and Near Intents, making it an interesting choice to indirectly cover other chains in the near future.
