I would like to share a story from #EthPrague2023 [conf + hackathon] that we attended last week (DevHub, Proximity, and NEAR WEEK team members were representing NEAR there). You may ask why NEAR at EthPrague, but NEAR BOS was very much on-topic there, and I managed to talk to 30+ teams during the hackathon and most of them were blown away by BOS (especially near.org gateway where FastAuth and meta-transactions is the thing, and UI is so slick!). We also had a superb NEAR booth right on the only pathway to the conf presentation stages, so we used its 100% capacity! See [photos on NEAR WEEK](https://twitter.com/NEARWEEK/status/1668545817219670017). 9 teams submitted valid hacks deploying their front-ends on BOS (still building their contracts on Solidity), others plan to use it on the next hackathon and at their production apps. Great job @near! Protocol features made it all possible, near.social paved the road to BOS, near.org team made it really smooth to demo! My pitch was very simple "Where do you deploy your front-end?", and almost everyone said "Next.js on Vercel" (exceptions were "we don't know how to build front-end") - asking them to navigate to near.org on their device and navigate from there was the most rewarding experience! P.S. It is not all kittens and rainbows yet, so see my wish requests on [DevHub](/#/devgovgigs.near/widget/gigs-board.pages.Feed) shortly.
