Host Tom Shaughnessy of Delphi Digital is joined by NEAR Protocol's co-founders Alex and Illia to discuss the project. We previously had Alex and Illia on in November of 2018 when the podcast was first starting out so on this episode we discuss what has changed since then, the progress the project has made and much more. Specifically we dive into how NEAR plans to attract developers across three key areas, smart contract wars between layer-1's, governance for NEAR, and what to expect from the protocol's coming Mainnet launch. 

NEAR is a sharded, developer-friendly, proof-of-stake public blockchain, built by a world-class team that has built some of the world's only sharded databases at scale. The blockchain is built from the ground up to make it easier to build, onboard and scale
