Introduction
Blockchain technology has revolutionized various industries, offering decentralized solutions and new ways to manage digital assets. However, as the number of blockchains grows, users and developers face the complex challenge of managing multiple wallets, private keys, and ensuring seamless asset transfers across different platforms. NEAR Protocol addresses these challenges with an innovative approach called chain signatures.
The Solution: Chain Signatures on NEAR Protocol
NEAR Protocol, a blockchain designed to simplify user interactions with multiple blockchains, introduces chain signatures as a solution to the complexity of managing assets across various platforms. By abstracting the underlying technology, NEAR enables users to interact with blockchain applications without needing to understand the technical details.
Enhancing User Experience
User-Friendly Onboarding
One of the first barriers new users face when entering the world of Web3 is creating a crypto wallet, managing recovery phrases, and obtaining initial funds. NEAR's FastAuth addresses this by allowing users to create accounts using just their email addresses. This removes the need for seed phrases and makes account recovery straightforward, enhancing the user experience.
Gas Fee Management with Relayers
Another significant hurdle is the need for users to have crypto funds to cover transaction fees. NEAR's relayers solve this by allowing developers to subsidize gas fees, enabling users to start using dApps without acquiring funds. This is facilitated through meta-transactions, where relayers attach NEAR to cover the fees and pass the transactions to the network.
