What is the Aurora network?

Aurora is an Ethereum Virtual Machine created by the team at NEAR Protocol. It delivers a turn-key solution for developers to operate their apps on an Ethereum-compatible, high-throughput, scalable and future-safe platform, with low transaction costs for their users.

The Aurora blockchain has several benefits compared to other blockchains, one of which is nearly $0.00 gas fees and 2 second transaction time. Transaction fees on Aurora are paid in the base currency, ETH, providing a great UX for users and opening the door to interesting ecosystem sustainability possibilities.

Currently, the Aurora blockchain has $200 Million in Total Value Locked with more than 120 projects live on their network.

Back at the end of May, Aurora announced the start of the Aurora+ program which brings several benefits to their users.
