NEAR Protocol employs Nightshade sharding where each block contains chunks from multiple shards, and Doomslug consensus gives 1‑second near‑finality. The JavaScript SDK and Contract Aurora EVM make onboarding Web2 developers easier. In 2024 NEAR launched a chain‑signature wallet standard that leverages passkeys for seedless login.
Tezos is a self‑amending Proof‑of‑Stake Layer‑1 that supports on‑chain governance, letting token holders adopt protocol upgrades without hard forks. Its latest ‘Mumbai’ upgrade activated Smart Rollups, allowing scalable L2s written in Rust and Wasm to inherit Tezos security. Tezos processes ~1 million contract calls daily and is popular for compliant tokenisation of securities in Europe.
