With the recent Rhea exploit, public goods projects shutting down, and overall crypto FUD, we want to be clear: we have no plans to shut down in 2026, and actually the opposite. 🧵
We are proud to announce that @potlock_ now supports Dogecoin (DOGE) donations via @near_intents! 🚀

To the moon? No, to the builders. 🚀🏺
Welcome, @dogecoin community. Let's do some good! 🐕✨
Intear provides the APIs and indexers that keep NEAR moving. We shouldn't be "checking the meter" every month for basic infra. Let’s overfund this so @slimedrgn can stop worrying about server bills and keep building the tools we all use.
Don’t stop now: app.potlock.org/campaign/142
Made a potlock campaign for free APIs (prices.intear.tech, various realtime and historical indexers, dex aggregator, RPCs that are not free but I make no money from that). If it reaches the goal by May 1, I will keep maintaining it for the next month, if not I will shut most of that down and all donations will be refunded

Not only are we committing to maintaining POTLOCK, we are building a net-new product and doubling down on chain-abstracted, private payments by enabling any asset to be used for private, local payments with @replydotcash.
The future is open money, funding, and payments.

We are proud to announce that we have integrated Zcash (ZEC) donations on campaigns via @near_intents.
This means you can donate or raise funds for your own ideas with Zcash with optional privacy.
Full announcement: linkedin.com/pulse/potlock-s…
Thread 🧵👇
Donating ZEC is simple:
- Pick a project on app.potlock.org
- Select ZEC as your currency
- Send from your Zcash wallet (Zashi, Ywallet, etc.)
-Donations arrive at the recipient
Privacy-preserving. No bridges. No complexity.
In a couple of experiments, we have observed that if donating requires:
Creating 3 accounts, Bridging assets, Swapping tokens, Navigating complex UIs. ...most people won't do it.
This makes POTLOCK obsessed with making donations simple because friction kills impact.
What "Open Funding" Really Means
It's about anyone:
- Anyone being able to contribute
- Anyone being able to launch a campaign
- No permission needed
- No gatekeepers deciding who's "worthy"
If your project helps people, you deserve a shot at funding.
That's open funding.
At POTLOCK, we disrupt chain maximalism in funding.
We enable users to choose the chain that fits their needs while still interacting seamlessly with projects on other chains.
POTLOCK works across ecosystems.
Fund what matters, from wherever you are.
As someone who’s been active in running DAOs across many chains for 5 years, love the @NEARProtocol@near_intents ecosystem for advancing the future of cross chain capital management, payments and fundraising. To know I need one multisig and I can literallty receive money in every chain, payout to desired chains & keep an intents balance is huge, especially in a world where every app & member has their own chain preference. With more & more DAO infrastructure shutting down heartwarming to see some of the smartest people in the game still shipping the group layer of the open web 💯❤️❤️

Not only do we manage shared funds through our Foundation & are early users to @TrezuApp but on POTLOCK, DAOs can create campaigns or get anyone to raise multichain donations directed to them. Whether it’s raising/managing funds, @NEARProtocol is the home of crosschain capital 🤝
