At Mintbase, we’ve been rolling up our sleeves and diving into a common issue to make NEAR onboarding a breeze whenever we welcome new partners and collaborators into our ecosystem. While Blockchain continues to be a buzzword in the media public rollouts lag behind highlighting the need for an easy and safe way to handle digital assets. Frustratingly, prevailing crypto onboarding remains ensnared in regulation, security apprehensions, and ecosystem fragmentation.

In this article, we delve into these pressing challenges, sharing our journey to champion a superior onboarding solution for NEAR. The spotlight shines on FastAuth Wallet, a transformative advancement poised to redefine the NEAR onboarding landscape.

The path to establishing a NEAR account and navigating cryptographic keys can prove overwhelming for newcomers preventing them from fully immersing themselves in the world of NEAR and its possibilities. With Mintbase Wallet we want to simplify user onboarding with general benefits like secure key management, simple transactions, and optional recovery.

No crypto, no problem!

Diving into the NEAR crypto world is like being dropped into a new continent, and the crypto jargon can be a bit like a foreign language. At Mintbase, we have committed ourselves to breaking down these barriers and paving the way for widespread adoption. Our exploration delves into enabling users to kickstart transactions on the NEAR network, even without the need for upfront cryptocurrency ownership (NFTs before $NEAR).

We envision a future where web2 businesses seamlessly transition to blockchain solutions. No need for extensive user education around onboarding — just an effortless and seamless process. We believe this approach will entice numerous businesses to jump into NEAR, amplifying its reach and potential. As the crypto space continues to evolve, Mintbase remains at the forefront for innovation, driving towards a NEAR future that is accessible, user-friendly, and ripe with possibilities.
