Modular March Episode 7: Chain Abstraction for The Modular Future with Near

In a world of 1000s of rollups and chains, the problem to tackle is unification of these otherwise isolated execution environments.

In today’s Modular March presentation, we sit down with NEAR founder Illia to take a look at their data availability layer, account aggregation, and chain abstraction toolkit.

We ask Illia about the potential of NEAR DA, how sharding really works for the L1, and his plans to grow adoption for the DA solution compared to others on the market. However, what was particularly interesting to us was this idea of account aggregation whereby enabling a single wallet to participate across multiple crypto experience, NEAR is building a better end user experience.

Illia went on to illustrate his larger vision for chain abstraction of the modular future and how he sees this playing out in the near future.

NEAR will continue to play an important role in connecting the modular expansion at the user facing level, in today’s presentation you’ll learn how they plan to do this.
