Human to NEAR Migration Strategy

This presentation outlines our strategic approach to migrating the Human ecosystem from Aurora to native NEAR protocol. We'll examine technical considerations, implementation timeline, and expected outcomes.

Current State Assessment

1

Aurora Testnet Operation

Human currently operates on Aurora testnet with bridged tokens from our original network.

2

Human Bridged HMT over

Aurora provides EVM compatibility on NEAR, allowing Ethereum-based operations.

3

Bridge Dependency

Current setup requires cross-chain bridging for all token movements.

4

Limited Upgrade Flexibility

Current token architecture restricts our ability to implement upgrades efficiently.

Migration Vision

Create Native NEAR Token

Develop an upgradeable token directly on NEAR Protocol.

Implement Bridge to Aurora

Establish reliable bridging mechanisms from NEAR to Aurora.

Migrate Development Focus

Shift all Human development resources to native NEAR protocol.

Potentially Phase Out EVM Structure

Gradually sunset the Aurora-based system over a one-year period.

Add Aurora Virtual Network

Potentially implement an Aurora virtual network to facilitate transition.

Technical Advantages of starting with a Near based HAI coin

Enhanced Transaction Speed

According to Sweatcoin, Native NEAR offers significantly faster finality and throughput than Aurora.

Direct Protocol Access

Eliminating the EVM layer removes unnecessary complexity and overhead.

Improved Security Model

Native implementation reduces cross-chain vulnerability risks.

Upgradeable Contracts

Native NEAR supports contract upgradeability without complex proxy patterns.

Implementation Roadmap

Phase 1: Token Creation / Human App Launch / Hai / Near offramps

Deploy native upgradeable NEAR token with thorough security audits.

Phase 2: Beta Migration / Large Exchange Launch / Salk Work on Near

Beta project on native NEAR environment.

Phase 3: 100 million wallets in a day

Use Salk and our large scale workforce to do the largest work job in history onboarding more people onto near than all blockchains combined

Phase 4: EVM Legacy

Deprecate legacy Escrow and KV Store contracts
