Yesterday's vulnerabilities are a good reminder to review your digital security! Here are few sensible precautions:

• Enable app-based (not SMS) two factor authentication
• Turn on banking transaction alerts
• Learn to identify phishing messages
• Keep devices updated
• If you use AI agents, review your GitHub access tokens and rotate any that may have been exposed

Exciting to see https://t.co/0lcirk7uVq launch a business-focused products for confidential payments, multisig governance, and cross-chain treasury management!

A huge step toward automating corporate governance and finance to set the foundation for agentic commerce.

I really want programmatic compliance that executes inside TEEs so the host never sees the data, and auditors can verify the rules actually ran. Privacy should be proven, not promised!

Happy birthday NEAR mainnet! 🎂
Now it makes sense why NEAR was pushing toward $6 yesterday.

[NEAR Protocol @NEARProtocol]

✦ 6 years on mainnet
✦ 10 shards
✦ 600ms blocks
✦ $34B+ Intents volume
✦ 3B+ Confidential Intents volume
✦ 150M+ Confidential TVL
✦ 10k+ NEAR Legion members
✦ 100% uptime

Grateful to the worldwide ecosystem of validators, devs, dApp teams, researchers, users, community members, legionnaires, and more who have helped shape NEAR into the groundbreaking protocol it is today. Side by side, we continue pioneering the onchain AI economy, connecting ecosystems, and are giving users back their sovereignty.

[Cameron.near @Cameron_Dennis_]

6 years ago today, Alex and Illia (AI) gave birth to @NEARProtocol, after realizing AI would eventually exploit every human-written vulnerability on the internet and needed to be user-owned.

We're always a bit too early, but I'm grateful to be part of this cracked team! 💚

[ArQ @TheArQHive]

6 years. 0 downtime. No-hit run. 🎮

6 years of building. 6 years of growing. 6 years with no downtime. Happy Birthday, @NEARProtocol 🎂

NEAR flipped the L1 game. Every L1 before it played zero-sum: my chain wins only if your users leave your chain for mine. So everyone paid for the move. Liquidity bribes, paid listings, memecoin seasons, TVL that vanished the day the rewards did.

NEAR refused to play. No bribes, no sponsored pumps, no paying exchanges to care. It built NEAR Intents instead, a product that needs nobody to leave anywhere. It serves users on 35 chains where they already sit, charges a fee for the service, and every chain it touches ends up with more liquidity, not less.

That one refusal explains everything else about NEAR Intents today:

> Revenue from day one. A product that is its own distribution has to pay its own bills, so fees and buybacks were the plan, never an afterthought.
> Dynamic sharding proven in mainnet. Volume up 9x in a year and the chain just runs: no congestion, no fee spikes, no downtime.
> A door for other ecosystems. Zcash found its biggest decentralized market on Intents. Quantus launched there before any exchange.

Other chains paid users to come. NEAR built the thing users were already looking for, and the users brought their chains with them.

near:native to $100 does not look impossible. Look at solana:So11111111111111111111111111111111111111112 it did $8->$280

[Vadim (AI, ⋈) @zacodil]

NEAR Intents lists tokens for free. @AlexAuroraDev confirmed it on @therollupco this week: Quantus paid nothing, Intents even covered the integration work. The only requirement is passing due diligence.

What a listed token gets: $1B of swap volume every week, $34B all time, buyers coming from 35 chains with whatever they already hold.

If you hold a coin that needs liquidity, send its devs to NEAR Intents today and tell them to ask for a listing. Free will not last forever.

[The Rollup @therollupco]

NEAR co-founder @ilblackdragon says any @NEARProtocol user can make their account quantum resistant today, without moving a single asset.

"We've designed NEAR with quantum in mind in 2018."

"Anyone individually right now can effectively update their account without moving any assets."

"Without needing to withdraw from wallets, pay taxes, do any of this."

"You can literally just update the keys to be post quantum right now."

NEAR is running the Zcash playbook. A year ago ZEC went from $40 to $750 on four ingredients, and NEAR now has all four.

Zcash, 2025:
1. One-line pitch: private money
2. Tech legitimacy: nobody reads the ZK papers, but the people who do say it is real
3. A product you can feel: Zashi wallet, shield in one tap
4. Serious people start saying it out loud: Naval, Hayes, Balaji
Plus a regulated wrapper, Grayscale's ZEC trust, and a supply story, the halving a year before.

NEAR, 2026:
1. One-line pitch: one account, every chain, private by default
2. Tech legitimacy: nobody reads the sharding papers, but $34B has crossed chains through it, and anyone can run one swap and see it work
3. A product you can feel: near(.)com, deposit and you are in a black box with 35 chains
4. Serious people saying it out loud: funds writing research, the big podcasts, and the same Twitter voices that called Zcash a year ago. Plus a regulated wrapper, the first US spot ETF, and a supply story, issuance cut to 1.6% on the table.

Same four ingredients, same two extras. The first three take years to build and near:native has them. The fourth is the match, and it was struck this month. On zcash:native, the match did 15x in two months.

Dear @AlexAuroraDev, we have identified you, sir, as SHERIFFCHENKO. This is not an accusation, this is a request: do you accept the title? Reply "willing to cooperate" and a personal allocation of $SHERIFCHENKO is yours, for bringing the users' money home. The window closes in 48 hours.

[Cameron.near @Cameron_Dennis_]

I'm certain we will achieve all of our crazy goals because the team simply won't quit. Nine years in, @AlexSkidanov and @ilblackdragon still show up in person and sit side by side every day. I've never seen a more dedicated team and I'm grateful to play my part!

NEAR inflation cut from 2.5% to 1.6% is now a formal proposal in NEAR governance. NEAR holders vote on it directly, weighted by the NEAR they lock in House of Stake, and it needs over 2/3 yes. I read the whole thing, most surprising facts:

> Stake leaves when price goes up. In two weeks NEAR did +86%. In the same two weeks 54.5M NEAR got unstaked, the staking share dropped from 46.9% to 42.7%, and 18 validators left. Staking yield actually rose during that time. People do not stake for the yield, they unstake for the price.

> Small validators do not own the stake they run. A typical operator at the bottom of the set runs 40,000 NEAR of other people's stake with 19 NEAR of its own. Liquid balance: 1.4 NEAR. Inflation never fed these guys, delegation did. The paper tests every rate down to 1% and up to 2.5% at every price up to 2x: no rate gives 300 self-sufficient validators. 24 of 405 lose self-sufficiency at 1.6%, and the proposal says so openly.

> Your cost if you stake: 1,000 NEAR becomes about 20 NEAR less after 2 years than it would under 2.5%. For that to be a wash, NEAR has to be worth ~1.8% more, about 8 cents. The 57% of supply that does not stake simply wins.

> 66.1M NEAR never get printed over 6 years, supply ends 4.4% smaller. Every month the vote slips costs about $4.7M in fresh tokens minted.

> About 17% of staking rewards get sold to pay income tax. $8M to $17M a year leaves the network for tax authorities. That part does not move between holders, it is just gone.

> Solana passed the same kind of cut on Aug 28, with 67.001% against a 66.67% bar. NEAR's cut is softer on stakers (yield down 36%, not 62%), ends higher (3.1% vs 2.25%), and shrinks supply more (4.4% vs 2.6%).

> Every emissions vote in Cosmos and Solana history that changed one number passed. Every one that added a mechanism, a zero target or a fee redesign failed. This proposal changes one number on purpose.

> The real split is 90% to stakers, 10% to treasury, measured on chain. The 96/4 everyone repeats is wrong.

> No trigger exists to raise issuance back. The argument: a schedule that can go up is a schedule the market cannot price, and an attacker would try to cause the trigger.

> SVRN, author of the proposal, holds 55M NEAR and loses about 855K NEAR a year in rewards if it passes. They vote yes.

The mechanics, for the record: one parameter, linear ramp over 24 months, 90 days grace before the first cut. After the vote, validators adopt the upgrade, same two steps as the 2025 halving.

NEAR Intents got called centralized for a week because it refuses to trade hacked funds. Here is what the biggest L2 on Ethereum did in April:

> KelpDAO got drained on April 18: 116,500 rsETH, $292M. Investigators pointed at North Korea. Part of the money sat on Arbitrum.

> On April 21 Arbitrum's Security Council, 9 of 12 signers, upgraded the chain's inbox contract on Ethereum to add one function: send a transaction as any address. They used it to send a transaction as the exploiter, moving about $71M in ETH to an address with no owner. Then they reverted the contract.

> No issuer blacklist, no sequencer trick. The chain impersonated a user and emptied his wallet at the protocol layer. The council had never used its powers this way before.

> ArbitrumDAO voted to move the ETH to a recovery multisig. A week later a US court froze it in a lawsuit against North Korea, and the money is still tied up in that.

> Offchain Labs' CEO: We're no more or less decentralized today than we were yesterday.

I think they did the right thing. Same as I think about Intents. But look at the two mechanisms. On Arbitrum nine people signed a chain upgrade that acted in the thief's name, once, after the fact. On Intents an automated system scores every trade for stolen funds before it executes, and a human council only reviews what got caught mid-flight. Nobody is rewriting anybody's balance. NEAR Intents is just getting better at detecting threats, and the detection is a program in a hardware enclave, not a committee.
