The real power of NEAR is as one integrated stack, with primitives and layers that are built to compound:
✦ NEAR Account Model + Post-Quantum Signing + Intents: One NEAR identity, quantum-secure, holding assets across 30+ chains for sovereignty and security across the
Every layer of NEAR is built to enhance the others and ensure users own their assets, data, and power of choice.
Here’s how NEAR was architected from day one to be the foundation for a user-owned AI economy:
Private, verifiable inference built into tools devs already use.
NEAR AI Cloud is now integrated across 17 open-source AI projects, including Goose, Eliza, and the Vercel AI SDK catalog + more on the way.
TEE-backed inference. Cryptographic proof. User-owned AI infrastructure.
NEAR Protocol has run for over 5 years on mainnet with 100% uptime.
The settlement layer for the agent economy is running. Three upgrades will extend it for what's next: security against future threats, throughput that scales with demand, and faster finality.
All underway 🧵
Each upgrade has a distinct goal. Post-quantum signing secures accounts for the long term. Dynamic resharding scales capacity automatically. SPICE reduces settlement time.
This is how NEAR Protocol delivers the security, throughput, and speed autonomous systems require.
