Enabling Open Web for Consumer Apps
summary
NEAR argues that the primitive stack is ready — programmable ownership, identity, encryption, scalable chains, Filecoin storage, The Graph/Covalent indexing, Chainlink oracles and zero‑knowledge proofs — but missing are common consumer protocols: social graph, messaging, reputation, gig and resolution layers. A NEAR-built crowdsourcing app already runs with 1,500 daily actives and over a million data samples, showing economic incentives and composability can match incumbents. NEAR offers developer tooling and an accelerator, Open Web Collective, to fund protocol- and app-level builds.
