Decentralized finance and blockchain development have always experienced a “black box” problem. Although on-chain data has technically always been considered “public”, it’s very difficult to retrieve useful, meaningful insights from all the hexadecimals, code redundancy, and wallet addresses spread across the network.

In a move aimed at addressing this challenge and enhancing the synergy between decentralized finance and blockchain technology development, NEAR Protocol revealed that it has established a strategic partnership. The partnership is with Nansen, one of the largest providers of blockchain and related analytics services. This collaboration aims to provide unprecedented insights for developers, investors, and all participants seeking to better understand how the NEAR Network operates.

This integration’s main offering is based on Nansen’s well-known method of determining “signal over noise.” Nansen makes it possible to track the overall condition of your dApps in real-time through indexing NEAR Protocol’s unique sharding design in Nansen’s tools suite.

In contrast to traditional block explorers, this integration provides additional functionality by enabling the user to track ‘Smart Money’ flows and follow high-performing wallet and institutional activity. It is an extremely useful tool for developers building on the NEAR platform, as it allows them to measure user retention and distinguish organic growth from bot activity. It helps teams to improve their tokenomics by providing data-driven intelligence on the actual behavior of their token holders.

Nansen’s integration provides investors with a valuable due diligence tool that enhances their decision-making process. The NEAR ecosystem has confirmed many transaction events on its various shards recently, but past transactions have been challenging to verify due to problems tracking down post-transaction behavior. Nansen’s analytic features allow users to better understand their tokens and how other wallets have interacted with their assets.

Web3 must be transparent for future success. It is necessary to reduce the amount of speculation and volatility that comes from points of view that are not easily recognizable, such as small-cap assets within the ecosystem. This step goes together with NEAR’s overall purpose of creating an “Open Web” that will allow users to access and act upon all data.

NEAR’s partnership with Nansen is consistent with a major trend among high performance blockchain networks pursuing high quality data partnerships, and as such as the ecosystem evolves, there will be an increased need for the development of sophisticated tracking tools. The NEAR platform leveraging Nansen’s over 100 million tagged wallets will help keep it competitive with other leading Layer-1 blockchain networks (such as Ethereum and Solana) that have previously had access to Nansen’s data.

NEAR Protocol is giving these tools proactively to be seen as a transparent place to put large amounts of money for Institutions. The Supply and Demand for these forensic tools is at an all-time high and regulatory clarity global development is becoming clearer according to CoinDesk’s recently published report.

Integrating NEAR Protocol analytics into Nansen has accomplished a technical goal for our ecosystem. NEAR is lowering developer’s and institution’s barriers to entry by allowing them access to more accurate, readable insights generated from raw data. As the open web evolves, our ability to differentiate between valuable information versus simply noise will be one of the most critical contributors to future success stories in blockchain technology development. With NEAR becoming more visible, we can see everything with greater clarity moving forward.
