#Community

Given the robust social metrics, a strong Twitter account, and a profound ecosystem with an extensive social community, I award Near Protocol a score of 5. Show More

#Tokenomics

The project is considered fundamental, and based on tokenomics and historical data, there is a potential for significant growth, even matching a 10x increase during the peak of the next bull run. Show More

#Team

One of the strongest teams on the market, they initially received funding not for a specific product, but for the team itself. Show More

I'm torn between 4 and 5 stars. Near has borrowed a lot of the best elements from some of the leading blockchain projects and incorporated it into their own to create a very solid product. Show More
