Here’s everything you need to know about NEAR: ✦ What NEAR is today, from NEAR Protocol to
$NEAR
token, Intents to IronClaw ✦ Why NEAR matters ✦ Why now 🧵 
Value was already fragmented, crypto added more. Chains. Bridges. Liquidity silos. In the agent economy, fragmentation is a failure point. NEAR unifies assets and agents into a single stack: confidential AI, cross-chain execution, sharded infrastructure.

Most private AI infra runs on trust, you can’t verify what happens inside is secure. Venice AI runs on NEAR AI infra: prompt is encrypted before it leaves device & decrypted in hardware enclave. Confidential inference. Signed attestation in <30s. Each request verifiable.- NEAR Protocol reposted

The IronClaw Hackathon kicks off our June events 🌍 Over the next few weeks, we'll be meeting builders across Asia, Europe, and North America to explore the future of secure AI agents, verifiable execution, and agent infrastructure. Deploy Secure Agents. Join us at an event 

Your favorite assets. Your favorite perps. Your favorite chains. All in one place on near.com. What should we add next?

“Intents is the next level of abstraction from blockchain.” —
@ilblackdragon
Every technological revolution removes another layer of complexity. Intents removes the need to think about execution itself.
The deepest perps liquidity in crypto is now just one tap away inside your near.com account. Before: bridge to a chain, find the venue, fund a new wallet, then trade. Now: open near.com, turn on perps, trade. It’s that easy.- NEAR Protocol reposted

Great episode of Chopping Block this week with
