With NEAR’s large fundraising rounds breaking crypto headlines over the last few months, WOO Network is keen to not just integrate its fast blooming ecosystem, but also strengthen our existing relationship with the network. Partnering with Ref Finance, the first major DeFi application on NEAR, enables WOO DAO to deposit WOO and NEAR tokens into a WOO/wNEAR pool on Ref Finance - improving WOO token’s liquidity on the NEAR network, and taking WOO further into its ecosystem.
