A friend asked me about this in private, so I’ll try to explain it in plain English.
NEAR started out as an AI startup researching “program synthesis” before pivoting to blockchain.
The idea behind sharding is for different shards to each process a portion of the transactions, allowing the network’s overall throughput to increase as the number of shards grows.
$NEAR is NEAR Protocol’s native token, used to pay transaction fees and for network staking. It’s currently 4.32.
Have you run into similar pitfalls? Share your experiences so others can avoid the same detours.
