This US gov export control forcing Anthropic to globally disable Fable 5 & Mythos 5 perfectly shows why centralized AI is fragile. Finance got solved by (Crypto) DeFi permissionless, borderless protocols on blockchains. The exact same shift is now inevitable for intelligence. Open & permissionless AI wins long-term. That's why teams like @NEARProtocol matter: private inference with TEEs, user-owned agents, secure harnesses, and intents for real agent economies. Decentralized AI infrastructure is the future

near just dropped an airdrop announcement 👀

Summer just got a whole lot better 😎 NEAR Summer Collection live on the merch store right now! Time to upgrade your wardrobe and rep NEAR all season long. Go grab yours ↓

pov: your degen group chat just found out $NEAR is launching confidential perps soon

Buying $NEAR now is like buying Bitcoin in early 2013

Agent Market is being rebuilt from the ground up. Hiring agents is about to get radically simpler. Coming this July: - Independent agent directory - Brief in plain English - Confidential USDC payouts A major upgrade is on the way.

Hyperliquid perps are NOW live on NEAR(.)com Multi-chain deposits via Intents. Seamless. Instant. Confidential perps loading next… 👀 The private onchain trading future is shipping on $NEAR.

While others announce beta, NEAR ships. NEAR’s confidential rails been live on Mainnet for a while with $16M confidential TVL. Try real Confidential Swaps, Payments & Withdrawals on near(.)com and Confidential Treasuries via Trezu. NEAR is leading cross-chain swaps, already at over $20B volume, generating real revenue that’s already flowing into $NEAR buybacks 🔥

When nothing else works for your chain, copy chains that actually ship. Copy @NEARProtocol

Tomorrow

IronClaw is now shelf-deployable. 🦾 The 3D printed @IronClawAI figurine is here, sourced from Legion community member Jakub (@jp_dawg) and brought to life for the NEAR community. Physical. Collectible. Legion-made.

The market loves transparency… until it doesn’t. High-profile trades get analyzed, denied, and memed in real time. NEAR Intents offers the opposite for those who want it: Confidential swaps. On near(.)com you can now execute cross-chain swaps privately.

We are locked in for the long run. Illia is building the NEAR flywheel: revenue, buybacks & deflationary while delivering real value. Higher $NEAR

sold all my other positions in this correction and rolled it all into $NEAR, highest conviction along with $VVV so now I'm back to only the $VVV $NEAR port NEAR = crypto's substrate/infra layer, taking over the role of BTC of unifying everything onchain -- omnichain accounts, cross-chain swaps, TEE backed privacy (no zec like exploits possible), quantum resistance coming, agent-runtime layer private inference, legendary team etc VVV = human agents AI substrate, aggregating models w/ 0 training cost, private uncensored AI, growing massively in users revenue, DIEM for perpetual inference, VVV grows w/ sub discretionary burns, emissions reduction, goated fast shipping team etc willing to hold these to whatever price

Steady lads, NEAR is shipping!

Markets move fast and opinions shift overnight, but the real work happens in the quiet. Strong tech, real adoption, and a clear path forward don’t disappear with one trade. It is simple: the trade is AI, Privacy, quantum and chain abstraction. Eyes on the long game -- keep building!!

Steady lads, shipping features on near(.)com

Respect the macro call. but he sold a position, not the product. and the selloff he's worried about is feeding it - NEAR Intents is doing ~$150k a day in fees right now, multiples of a quiet day, because a volatile tape means more money moving across chains. every one of those fees buys back $NEAR. confidential AI still live. still the best cross-chain settlement in crypto. none of it changed because one trader rotated to cash ahead of a top he's calling for september. he's managing his risk. the product's still printing.
