Multichain and NEAR Cross-chain Testnet Campaign Starts Now
Explore Near ecosystem with Sender wallet and Ref Finance
We are delighted to announce our integration with NEAR blockchain. By enabling cross-chain interoperability, the NEAR ecosystem can now be linked to the EVM ecosystem, and a multi-chain ecosystem built by us.
To give you a taste of a silky-smooth cross-chain experience, as well as an early taste of the NEAR ecosystem, we contacted Sender wallet and Ref Finance to jointly host this cross-chain testnet campaign (https://test.multichain.org/#/router) before mainnet goes live. The engaged users who complete below tasks will receive authentic AIRDROP (roughly $3000 in total)! And of course, Multichain is not stingy either, as we are giving all testnet users a free month of mainnet cross-chain access to NEAR blockchain.
Currently, the testnet supports $NEAR & $USDT & $USDC to be transferred between Fantom and NEAR blockchain. More chains and tokens will be supported when mainnet launches. Stay tuned!
Let’s have a go!
- Register NEAR testnet wallet to get 200 NEAR test token and import into Sender wallet, pls refer to the guide
- Get test FTMs from Fantom faucet: https://faucet.fantom.network/
- Visit Multichain Testnet portal: https://test.multichain.org/#/router and ensure your Sender wallet is also connected
4. Connect to Fantom testnet and then cross-chain test token (USDT/USDC) from Fantom testnet to NEAR testnet in one direction
**How to get USDT and USDC test tokens? Submit your EVM wallet address here https://forms.gle/A8x3VXGDuV78g6jc9
- USDC test token address: 0x9d8f97a3c2f9f397b6d46cbe2d39cc1d8cf19010
- USDT test token address: 0x6fefd97f328342a8a840546a55fdcfee7542f9a8
5. Login Ref.finance by Sender wallet and add/remove $NEAR-$USDT or $NEAR-$USDC liquidity on the corresponding pool
- USDT address on NEAR: usdt.itachicara.testnet
- USDC address on NEAR: usdc.itachicara.testnet
First come, first serve! Earlier registrants will have a higher amount of USDT/USDC test tokens and a higher chance of airdrops. Airdrop depends on your test token amounts.
Top 1–20: 10,000 USDT test tokens and 10,000 USDC test tokens
Top 21–50: 5,000 USDT test tokens and 5,000 USDC test tokens
Top 51–200: 1,000 USDT test tokens and 1,000 test USDC test tokens
The rest: 100 USDT test tokens and 100 USDC test tokens
Rewards:
- $2,000 worth of Ref supported by Ref Finance
- 200 NEAR supported by Sender wallet (about $1,000)
- Free cross-chain access to NEAR ecosystem when mainnet launches to all testnet attendees

About Ref Finance:
Ref Finance is a community-led, multi-purpose Decentralized Finance (DeFi) platform built on NEAR Protocol.
Ref takes full advantage of NEAR’s low fees ($0.005 per swap), one-to-two second finality, and WebAssembly-based runtime (hello, Rust smart contracts!).
Using the Rainbow Bridge (NEAR <> ETH), traders can utilize the billions of dollars in ERC-20-compliant assets from Ethereum, and eventually, from any chain (BSC, Polygon/Matic, Cosmos/IBC, and others) on NEAR. Ref offers access to other networks with AllBridge (Celo, Solana, Terra) and thank to Aurora is tradable on Aurora as well.
Ref Finance’s first product is an automated market maker (AMM). It is similar to Uniswap, with a few changes (not limited to):
- Multiple pools in a single contract
- Ability to trade across pools atomically in a single transaction
- Customizable swap fee per pool, giving to LPs the possibility to charge higher fees for volatile tokens
