Bootstrapping dApp Traction w/ NEAR DevHub, presented by Boris Polania of NEAR DevHub, at NEARCON 2023.
Builders need help with initial customer traction – especially in the early days. Today in the Web2 world, they have to solve this problem by themselves. DevHub pioneers the model of content sharing where the same user content can be shared between multiple dApps that have a similar customer base, bootstrapping the entire NEAR ecosystem in an exponential way.
