An Open Invitation to the Harmony Community: In light of recent events in the Harmony One ecosystem, NEAR Foundation is launching a development fund dedicated to enabling ex-Harmony projects to build on NEAR and Aurora.
The NEAR Foundation puts out great effort to establish a reliable ecology. a location where programmers, entrepreneurs, and community members may work together to create the Open Web.
Many projects that were launched or are now being built on the Harmony network are now experiencing uncertainty at this turbulent time for Web3 and the larger global economy. For this reason, the NEAR Foundation is extending a warm welcome to everyone who is now developing on Harmony to join the NEAR community and establish themselves as permanent residents of this thriving ecosystem.
NEAR Foundation and Proximity Labs have gathered sizable relief funding for projects from the Harmony ecosystem as part of this invitation. Here is what you need to know if you want to move your project to NEAR.
NEAR Opens the Door to More Wallets
Fostering an ecosystem that can create and sustain the essential elements of a robust and dynamic Web3 ecosystem has been a key component of the NEAR’s mission.
The provision of wallets is one of those crucial roles. The Foundation has so far created and maintained a wallet on wallet.near.org to aid in the rapid and simple onboarding of users into the NEAR ecosystem.
As NEAR moves toward decentralization, wallet.near.org will eventually serve as the main page for all compatible wallets running inside the ecosystem.
NEAR is now available on 9/10 biggest CEX. Our next stop is probably Coinbase, one of the big backers of NEARProtocol

Ethereum is completely out of the race, NEAR has a truly remarkable position. Followed by big chains like BSC, AVAX, FTM, POLYGON and ARBITRUM.
USN Statistic
After the collapse of LUNA and Terra, the topic of stablecoins is very interesting. Therefore, updates on the native stablecoin of the Near ecosystem are absolutely necessary, above are some notable highlights of USN.
We can see that the growth % of USN is not too large but there are still positive changes. There are always incentive campaigns of projects to increase USN’s demand.
