you don't need permission to start building. just start, we'll find you.
some quiet builders are about to get a lot less quiet👀
good week to be building. that's all.
NEAR hits $600M in weekly volume.
Products create volume. Builders create products.
Behind every milestone are the people who kept shipping.
Discover the builders shaping NEAR on NearBuilders.
$near 7 day trailing volume is ~600m and boys at the illia club are just getting started shipping with features on intents. Bet on REAL products! @ilblackdragon is our AI God father!
What a week for NEAR builders 👀
→ → @jemartel98 added a privacy mode to Outlayer Wallet, letting users shield tokens and make transfers with more privacy
→ @marior_dev bringing @ProtocolPawns back (on-chain chess ♟️), new indexer, mobile-first, wager matches.
→ and there's now an early version of NEAR accounts working with MetaMask / WalletConnect wallets. still early, but exciting to watch develop
builders shipping. ecosystem moving. this is what we're here for.
This week's Zcash bug points to an unsolved problem with all open source blockchains.
Remember Zcash maintainers had to take the Orchard pool offline before patch.
The reason this needed to be done is that now AI can scan git commit logs to understand and exploit vulnerabilities instantly.
For serious enough vulnerabilities, it is no longer possible to push silent updates: the method that Bitcoin and others have used for years.
Every blockchain now has the potential for showstopper bugs that require taking the network offline.
Has anyone seen a plan to fix this?
Must-read from @ilblackdragon: Rethinking the Self-Custody/Safety Binary in DeFi.
After $600M stolen in April, it's time to move beyond the all-or-nothing mindset.
NEAR is building the spectrum:
✦ Confidential Intents (private by default)
✦ SHIELD on Intents (catch suspicious flows fast)
✦ MFA wallets with Chain Signatures
The future of secure agentic commerce is $NEAR. Read ↓
ICYMI Grayscale Research on $NEAR - worth reading again.
✦ Intents: 25M swaps, ~$20B volume.
✦ IronClaw: Private AI agent infrastructure.
✦ Tokenomics: Inflation cut in half buybacks from real revenue to make NEAR deflationary.
$NEAR has been shipping quietly while building the actual rails for private agentic commerce.
Momentum is real. Fundamentals are stronger than ever. Let’s keep building together. 🔥
