We are excited to announce that Aurora is now #RedStonePowered! ♦️⚡
Aurora + RedStone partnership means protocols on this ETH-compatible, scalable chain with low transaction costs can now use our reliable, cost-effective Data Feeds for 1100+ assets! If you are building a data-powered dApp, look no further.
What is Aurora?
Aurora is an Ethereum Virtual Machine created by the team at the NEAR Protocol, delivering a turn-key solution for developers to operate their apps on an Ethereum-compatible, high-throughput, scalable and future-safe platform, with low transaction costs for their users.
The Aurora environment consists of the Aurora Engine, a high performance EVM—Ethereum Virtual Machine—and the Aurora Bridge, facilitating trustless transfer of ETH and ERC-20 tokens between Ethereum and Aurora, offering a great user experience. Aurora operates as an independent and self funded initiative, but continues to share and leverage the same DNA with NEAR Protocol. The governance of Aurora will take a hybrid form of a Decentralized Autonomous Organization “the AuroraDAO” complemented by a traditional entity which will hold one of several seats in the AuroraDAO.
