What are Web3 Apps?
Web3 Applications - also known as decentralized apps (dApps) - leverage smart contracts and blockchain data to offer transparency, security and giving back control to users over their assets and data.
NEAR simplifies building Web3 apps for the general public, making it easy to interact with different blockchains, while helping to onboard users that are not familiarized with crypto.
Why Integrating NEAR to your App?​
Any application can benefit from integrating NEAR, including games, financial services, social platforms, and more.
