Welcome to the latest edition of NEAR Dev NEWS!

It's edition #22 and we've got your developer updates. Updates include a new chain signatures interface, a new wallet selector release, and more. To get NEAR Dev News first each week SUBSCRIBE to our mailing list. Let's dive in!

News

  1. New Chain Signatures Interface There is a new interface for producing chain signatures. Note that the key derivation function has also switched from sha2 to sha3, check out this working example. This is part of the 1.0.0-rc.1 release. Currently, to get signatures you should use v1.signer-dev.testnet. Once stable this will be deployed to v2.multichain-mpc.testnet in the coming days. v5.multichain-mpc-dev.testnet will host the most recent commits (not stable).
