Aurora Cloud

Aurora Cloud is a platform for deploying and managing Virtual Chains — dedicated EVM-compatible blockchain instances built on the Aurora Engine smart contract. Through the Aurora Cloud Console, operators configure chain parameters including gas abstraction, permission controls, custom base tokens, on/off-ramp integrations, oracle connections, and CEX bridges. Virtual Chains deploy on NEAR Protocol infrastructure in approximately 30 seconds, inheriting cross-chain interoperability with Ethereum and NEAR.

Aurora

Aurora is an EVM-compatible Layer 2 blockchain on NEAR Protocol, built as a smart contract that inherits NEAR's validator network and performance. Users can deploy Solidity smart contracts, bridge assets between Ethereum and NEAR via the Rainbow Bridge, and launch dedicated customizable blockchains called Virtual Chains. The protocol is governed by a decentralized autonomous organization with a dedicated development team.
