近協議推出鏈簽名以實現無縫跨鏈連接

Near 基金會宣布，Near 協議現在支援鏈簽名，允許用戶使用其 Near 帳戶存取多個鏈。此功能由社群驗證器保護的去中心化 MPC 網路提供支持，並為應用程式和使用者提供跨鏈互通性。最初的發布包括對以太坊、Cosmos、狗狗幣、比特幣和 XRP Ledger 的支持，並計劃推出更多網路。 「多鏈 Gas Relayer」消除了對其他鏈上原生 Gas 代幣的需求，用戶可以使用 NEAR 或 NEP-141 代幣支付 Gas 費用。 Chain Signatures 目前可在 Near 的測試網路上使用，預計主網將於 5 月初推出。

Near Protocol Unveils Chain Signatures: Expanding Cross-Chain Interoperability

近協議推出鏈簽章：擴展跨鏈互通性

San Francisco, California - March 8, 2023 - The Near Basis, a non-profit organization supporting the layer-1 Near Protocol, has announced a breakthrough development that significantly enhances the protocol's capabilities. Chain Signatures, a groundbreaking feature, now empowers Near users with the ability to seamlessly access and interact with multiple blockchains through their Near accounts.

加州舊金山 - 2023 年 3 月 8 日 - 支持第 1 層近協議的非營利組織 The Near Basis 宣布了一項突破性進展，可顯著增強該協議的功能。鏈簽名是一項突破性功能，現在使近用戶能夠透過其近帳戶無縫存取多個區塊鏈並與之互動。

Chain Signatures leverages decentralized multi-party computation (MPC) and is secured by a network of community validators. This innovative mechanism enables users to generate cryptographic signatures on one blockchain while leveraging a private key associated with their account on another blockchain. This functionality unlocks unprecedented cross-chain interoperability, allowing users to engage with various blockchains utilizing a single wallet or account.

Chain Signatures 利用去中心化多方運算 (MPC)，並由社群驗證者網路提供保護。這種創新機制使用戶能夠在一個區塊鏈上產生加密簽名，同時利用與其在另一個區塊鏈上的帳戶關聯的私鑰。此功能解鎖了前所未有的跨鏈互通性，允許用戶使用單一錢包或帳戶與各種區塊鏈進行互動。

According to a press release from the Near Foundation, Eigenlayer, a pioneering restaking project built on Ethereum, has joined forces with Near as a launch partner, contributing to the stability of the Chain Signatures ecosystem.

根據 Near 基金會的新聞稿，基於以太坊的開創性重質押計畫 Eigenlayer 已與 Near 作為啟動合作夥伴聯手，為 Chain Signatures 生態系統的穩定性做出貢獻。

The introduction of Chain Signatures holds immense promise for decentralized finance (DeFi) applications. By eliminating the need for bridging assets, users can now access DeFi products and services that leverage assets from different chains, including Bitcoin and Ethereum. This capability marks a significant milestone in the DeFi landscape, expanding its reach and accessibility across multiple blockchains.

鏈簽名的引入為去中心化金融（DeFi）應用帶來了巨大的希望。透過消除橋接資產的需要，用戶現在可以存取利用不同鏈（包括比特幣和以太坊）資產的 DeFi 產品和服務。這項功能標誌著 DeFi 領域的一個重要里程碑，擴大了其在多個區塊鏈上的覆蓋範圍和可訪問性。

Chain Signatures currently supports a wide range of networks, including Ethereum, Cosmos, Dogecoin, Bitcoin, and XRP Ledger, with future plans to integrate Solana, TON Community, Polkadot, and more.

Chain Signatures 目前支援多種網絡，包括以太坊、Cosmos、Dogecoin、比特幣和 XRP Ledger，未來計劃整合 Solana、TON Community、Polkadot 等。

To further enhance user convenience, Chain Signatures incorporates a "Multichain Gas Relayer," which eliminates the requirement for native gas tokens for transactions on other chains. Users can conveniently utilize Near or NEP-141 tokens to cover gas fees across all supported chains.

為了進一步提高用戶便利性，Chain Signatures 整合了“多鏈 Gas Relayer”，它消除了在其他鏈上進行交易時對原生 Gas 代幣的需求。用戶可以方便地利用 Near 或 NEP-141 代幣來支付所有支援的鏈上的 Gas 費用。

This development aligns with Near's ongoing efforts towards "chain abstraction," a vision that aims to simplify the user experience in the complex multichain ecosystem. Chain Signatures is currently available on Near's testnet, with expectations for its mainnet rollout in early May, as confirmed by a Near spokesperson.

這項發展與 Near 不斷致力於「鏈抽象」的努力相一致，「鏈抽象」的願景旨在簡化複雜的多鏈生態系統中的使用者體驗。 Chain Signatures 目前可在 Near 的測試線上使用，Near 發言人證實，預計其主網將於 5 月初推出。

The Near Protocol has experienced a surge in popularity, with a 1,902% increase in the number of unique active wallets (UAW) interacting with its Web3 applications, according to a report from blockchain analytics platform DappRadar on January 11, 2023. However, despite its financial success, the foundation recently announced a significant workforce reduction of 40%.

根據區塊鏈分析平台 DappRadar 2023 年 1 月 11 日的報告，Near 協議的受歡迎程度激增，與其 Web3 應用程式互動的獨特活躍錢包 (UAW) 數量增加了 1,902%。隨著財務上的成功，該基金會最近宣布大幅裁員40%。

In September 2023, the Near Foundation disclosed the departure of its CEO, Marieke Flament, without providing specific reasons. During her tenure from 2021 to 2023, Flament oversaw a substantial increase in the organization's treasury balance to 330 million Near, valued at approximately $350 million at the time of her resignation.

2023 年 9 月，Near 基金會披露了執行長 Marieke Flament 的離職消息，但沒有提供具體原因。在弗拉門特 2021 年至 2023 年任職期間，該組織的財務餘額大幅增加至 3.3 億奈拉，在她辭職時價值約為 3.5 億美元。
