NEAR this cycle is what Solana was last cycle. The hype, the integrations, the attention.
Solana bet on speed. Impressive, until you see NEAR add shards on its own as load rises, holding 0.6 second blocks at 10x, 100x, 1000x the traffic. A fast single chain congests when everyone arrives. NEAR just gets wider. So what other chain even comes close to this today?
