After the creation of Ethereum, the cryptocurrency space has seen more layer-one blockchains compete with the incumbent protocol.

Unlike Ethereum, Bitcoin was not designed with the intention of decentralized applications being built on top of the protocol. 

Ethereum’s over 5000 developers and counting make it difficult for new players to build layer-one protocols that will drive traction to the same level. 

Protocols like Avalanche, Solana, Cardano, Sui, and NEAR, the focus of this article, take on this challenge which ultimately progresses the web3 ecosystem. 

Developer Experience Drives Web3 Growth 

Web3 will not progress and gain mass adoption without providing familiar user experiences.

To drive the end-user experience, developers have to be incentivized to build on protocols. 

NEAR is focused on creating the easiest user experience for developers to create innovative decentralized apps (dApps) that opens the door for mass adoption.
