Libra association member Bison Trails aims to offer users the opportunity to participate in the NEAR network.
Blockchain infrastructure-as-a-service company Bison Trails has announced support for NEAR, which is designed to power Open Finance and the Open Web.
According to the announcement, NEAR’s smart contract platform is focused on strengthening accessibility and usability to support large-scale consumer applications.
NEAR plans to make a transition to a restricted mainnet
Speaking to Cointelegraph, Bison Trails CEO Joe Lallouz stated that the company has been working closely with NEAR since 2019.
He also noted that it was a good time to make the official announcement, as NEAR plans to transition from proof-of-authority to the restricted mainnet sometime in the summer of 2020.
The restricted mainnet is one step in the network's rollout schedule. NEAR says that opening up the network in stages allows them to test it and address certain issues early in the process. The restricted stage will purportedly be followed by a community-governed mainnet, the release date of which is yet to be determined.
