The Aurora environment consists of the Aurora Engine, a high performance EVM—Ethereum Virtual Machine—and the Aurora Bridge, facilitating trustless transfer of ETH and ERC20 tokens between Ethereum and Aurora, within a great user experience.
Develop on our Ethereum-compatible network with increased scaling and lower transactions costs.
Virtual Chains are fully customizable, EVM-compatible chains that run as smart contracts on NEAR. Virtual Chains offer developers the scalability and speed they need, without the high costs and complexity of setting up a traditional L2 infrastructure..

This, paired with our ECS data model, enables a highly modular…
Launch a private Ethereum Testnet with all clients and MEV infra2023 · github.com · ▲18We've been working with the Ethereum Foundation & Flashbots to build tooling and infrastructure for developers to test various workflows for Ethereum. As part of that work, anyone can now spin up a local Ethereum dev net with the entire Flashbots mev-boost infra (relayer, builder, boost) using the ethereum-package. This package supports all EL and CL client types, works on Kubernetes for scale testing, and comes with a few bells and whistles like metrics, mock-builders, and beacon chain explorers. This is the de-facto tool for teams modifying and testing the consensus layer. Here's a full…
