Team of GetBlock nodes APIs provider is beyond thrilled to share an update on its long-term strategic partnership with NEAR Foundation. In Q1, 2022, GetBlock received a development grant from this Swiss-based non-profit behind NEAR Protocol.

The grant will be used to supercharge the research and development of an explorer for NEAR Protocol. New service will act as a newbie-friendly decentralized browser for NEAR Protocol; it will be able to demonstrate all information about blocks, transactions, accounts, and so on.

The upcoming release of GetBlock’s explorer for NEAR Protocol will push the barriers of its ecosystem’s transparency and user-friendliness. GetBlock, in its turn, is going to strengthen its position as a leading BaaS vendor of the Web3 scene.

NEAR Foundation Grants Program was launched in November, 2021. Net amount of funds allocated for this unmatched initiative totals $800 million.
