- AI is the final interface. If our industry doesn’t work together to build a user-owned AI stack, a handful of companies will own the models and infrastructure that own the data and decisions of billions, and therefore the world. The time to double-down on user-owned AI is now.
The test NEAR has applied to every protocol and product decision from day one: does this make the user more sovereign, or less?How to embrace the user-owned alternative: -Move your assets confidentially on near.com -Anonymize your model usage with cloud.near.ai -Secure your agent with ironclaw.com -Hire and list agents at market.near.ai -Use NEAR's private - NEAR Protocol reposted
AI agents need more than intelligence. They need secure execution, private inference, accessible markets, persistent identity, and verifiable settlement. NEAR offers the entire stack.Fighting for user-owned AI will be the defining battleground of our generation. NEAR’s answer:
- [email protected] is live for Confidential Intents users on near.com. When Confidential Intents TVL reaches $70M, eligible users receive [email protected]. It converts 1:1 into NEAR only after NEAR holds a $3.33 VWAP for 3 consecutive days. The community sets the pace.

NEAR was focused on AI before the hype. Does @ilblackdragon feel vindicated? What's next? Live today at 12pm ET @NEARProtocol's original AI vision, $NEAR outperformance, privacy, censorship resistance. Join us! - An under-explored architectural bet NEAR made years ago was how accounts function on NEAR. While others shipped hash-based addresses, NEAR built human-readable accounts decoupled from cryptography, controlled by rotatable access keys, and not bound to a single key pair. This oneCase in point: quantum. Because NEAR accounts aren't tied to breakable cryptography, they can be easily rotated to a quantum-safe signing scheme. NEAR is adding the first post-quantum-safe signing scheme (FIPS-204) in the next protocol upgrade:The account model is just one example of NEAR's key early architectural bets. On the @therollupco, @ilblackdragon walked through how NEAR solved the hard primitives like Chain Signatures, Intents, and privacy to lay the foundation for the agent economy.

NEAR Intents are inevitable. But why did Movement integrate Near? As we work with consumer facing fintech apps and nation states, it’s clear that many consumers already have stablecoins or digital assets like BTC, SOL, ETH, DOGE, USDT, USDC, etc But these assets areWe're integrating NEAR Intents. Money needs to move without friction. Partners offering yield products on Movement will be able to accept and settle eligible user deposits from any connected chain. This will be the first production intent integration on Movement. More to come.
00:00 - "We're going to have billions of agents that will do transactions at a frequency and velocity that is inconsistent with how humans interact with software and financial systems today.” NEAR Intents is more than cross-chain infrastructure. It’s the money rail for agentic finance.

Uphold 🤝 @NEARProtocol Tune in as we discuss NEAR Protocol's recent product developments, what's next on the roadmap, and what it means for the broader ecosystem. Set a reminder 👇 - The expanded NEAR Revenue Dashboard is now live. Track protocol revenue, fee generation, and ecosystem activity through a single, transparent view of network performance. Built to make key economic metrics easier to access, analyze, and share. A look at key metrics 🧵
Replying to @NEARProtocolHere's the number that matters most on NEAR's revenue dashboard: protocol revenue as a % of emissions. When captured revenue outpaces new issuance, NEAR becomes a net sink — more tokens bought back than issued. That's the line we're walking toward. Watch it move.
