Great work by the @rhea_finance team

Most AI agents are built on trust assumptions. IronClaw is built for adversarial reality. Check out the full IronClaw v0.28 release update 👇

The @NEARProtocol is becoming post-quantum-safe. See below for the roadmap to quantum safety, starting with adding a quantum-secure signing scheme in Q2. We originally built the protocol with expectation cryptography will need to change due to progress in quantum computing. We knew there would be a need to expand the cryptography set, so NEAR allows multiple signing schemes by design and users will be able to use whichever one they prefer. We also design NEAR account model to not depend on any particular cryptography and allow to manage keys as "devices". We’re proactively releasing the first quantum-safe signing scheme this spring, the first of many. Allowing wallets and partners to add support to it and users to secure their accounts early. We want to give users as much time as possible to rotate their keys in a proactive way and have piece of mind. In parallel Near One is going to upgrade cryptography across secure the rest of the protocol. More to come on this, but I'm excited for these steps and I feel NEAR is well-positioned to lead in the quantum transition for our space.

Building @IronClawAI skills has never been easier. Go experiment with @iliad_near, it's free to use for the entire @NEARProtocol community.

🐉I was running raids for Near Legion, and the 44th one turned out to be really interesting The community post by @iliad_near has been circulating, and if you read it carefully, you can understand the foundation others are building for IronClaw Iliad is a developer tool that allows you to create, publish, and use ready-made skill sets for these IronClaw-based agents As seen in the announcements, they’ve launched a completely free beta where you can write these skills yourself; eventually, you’ll be able to upload them to the marketplace (currently on the testnet) and download them for your individual agents ❗️Over 100 skills have already been written; the attached photo shows which ones I’m very happy that IronClaw is developing so rapidly; a large number of skills will make working with it significantly easier. As a reminder, you can install an agent in less than 5 minutes, and with the variety of skills, putting it to practical use will become even faster

Shipping on @NEARProtocol is easier than ever with @iliad_near
