The NEAR Protocol was developed by the Near Collective, a community spread around the world consisting of some 50 scientists, programmers and philosophers in technology. They wrote the protocol's basic code and remain active in its further development.
The core team consists of the NEAR Foundation, a Swiss foundation. Besides Illia Polosukhin and Alex Skidanov, Eric Trautman may still be mentioned as one of its most prominent contributors. Eventually it should be dissolved, when the DAO makes all the decisions and complete decentralization is a reality.
NEAR Inc, their commercial arm, is based in San Francisco. It may be determined that NEAR Protocol's team has great potential.
They now have a whole arsenal of partners and dApps in their portfolio, but the really big names are still a bit lacking.
Perhaps the great competition in their field is playing tricks on them, because the technology of this network is fine.
NEAR wants to be user-friendly. They are a smart contract development platform, on which dApps and DeFi applications can be developed quickly and easily. If you know nothing about blockchain, you should still be able to develop an app on this. For this, they have developed a Software Development Kit (SDK), where developers only need to pick components from the library. As the app grows fairly organically, developers see a working app emerge.
NEAR wants to be accessible. If they find an app promising they use the NEAR Grants Program to help get the project started.
They want to have low transaction costs. They even use the Yocto unit consisting of 10-24 NEAR, so negligible are these costs.
They want to be fast. They can reach speeds of around 100,000 transactions per second.
Climate Friendly. Their mission is to be carbon neutral and they offset all their consumption of energy by investing in sustainable projects.
Open source. They want anyone to be able to contribute and use the code to develop NEAR.
NEAR is the native token of this blockchain. You can pay with it when developing apps and you can secure the network by tokenizing it.
When the NEAR token was created, 1 billion coins were tokenized. Most of it has since been marketed, though, so there won't be much dilution.
Of the transaction costs, 70% are burned to fight inflation and 30% are used to discount contracts.
Those who hold the NEAR token may also vote on the future of the project. Thus, it is also a governance token for the DAO of NEAR Protocol.
