The NEAR Foundation has announced a partnership with Meta Pool to support the effective rollout of the Enterprise Node Operators Program (ENO Program). This initiative aims to onboard institutions and companies into the NEAR ecosystem. Meta Pool will provide guidance and oversight throughout the program's implementation.

As a liquid staking solution on NEAR, Meta Pool views this collaboration as a significant milestone, building on its launch in November 2023. The project is committed to serving as an operational backbone during the ENO Project's expansion, contributing to the security, growth, and decentralization of the NEAR community.

NEAR Foundation is focused on strengthening global partnerships and engaging with industry leaders. Over 15 projects have already joined the ecosystem, including Colossus, Triton One, Frens Validator, DSRV Labs, and Stakin.

The ENO Program is backed by a pool of 5,000,000 NEAR tokens to support ENOs' staking activities. The Foundation aims to foster collective success and innovation across the decentralized landscape as the program evolves.

The announcement of the ENO Program has generated optimism within the community, reflected in an 8.05% increase in the native token's value in the last 24 hours. The program's expansion is anticipated to drive further growth and partnerships, potentially leading to a positive outlook for NEAR's token value.

The recent launch of the second phase of NEAR Sharding represents a significant milestone for the network's development, supporting the vision of chain abstraction to facilitate the adoption of highly scalable dApps.

The live ENO Program focuses on institutional growth, marketing, and financial support, with Meta Pool and other partners driving its initiatives. This collective effort aims to accelerate the adoption and expansion of the NEAR ecosystem.

Looking ahead, the NEAR Foundation aims to increase NEAR's valuation, with projections estimating potential growth to $5.48 by 2025 and $18.01 by 2030. NEAR's market cap and 24-hour trading volume have already seen notable increases, indicating growing interest and activity within the ecosystem.
