@IronClawAI has been such a useful tool for me recently, especially as a developer. I have been using ironclaw to automate tasks to build bots like telegram bots with automated responses. I can use ironclaw to place trades and it just fits in every aspect of my life and work.

RHEA V2 is live — NEAR's native DEX aggregator, updated.

Better quotes than any other router, guaranteed.

> Dominant assets on RHEA DEX:
near:native · $ZEC · $RHEA · bitcoin:native

> Tradable assets on the RHEA V2 Dex Agg:
any asset listed on the DEX.

NB: Supports NEAR (native) only.

Help. The CEO of Dfinity replied to my February post and cornered me. My fatal mistake was not foreseeing ICP's roadmap for the next six months. Should I delete the account?

People keep replying "but NEAR has no on-chain inference." Correct, and that was the whole point. On-chain inference is a concept, not a product. It was unusable when I wrote that post in February, unusable year ago, and it's unusable today. So NEAR runs AI on real GPUs and proves it with hardware attestation instead. Off-chain, verifiable, live.

ICP's reply, six months later, is a roadmap: "alpha within days," "very soon," no numbers. And their one live AI app runs its intelligence on Anthropic, off-chain and centralized. Turns out ICP's real AI lives off-chain too, just without the proof. Appreciate the effort, it made my point for me.

THE BLOCK: NEAR Co-founder Illia Polosukhin has proposed establishing a NEAR Sovereign Fund.

The fund would hold the protocol treasury and revenue in $NEAR, generate yield, and use a portion to fund security and public goods, with the long-term aim of reducing inflation.

Near's upgrade last week made it the first quantum-resistant L1

Near accounts now have a new lattice-based signing scheme that enable each wallet to be post-quantum, and this is live on the L1

Boom, simple as that

[Meteor Wallet @MeteorWallet]

Meteor Wallet now supports ML-DSA-65 quantum-resistant keys on @NEARProtocol

Add optional post-quantum full-access keys alongside your existing Ed25519 keys — create, import, manage, and revoke them without touching what you already have.

> Guards against future quantum attacks
> Fully optional, works with your current accounts

Before you start:
> ML-DSA-65 keys can't be recovered from a seed phrase yet — back up your private key
> Some dApps may not support ML-DSA-65 as a primary key
> Accounts are still created with Ed25519; add ML-DSA-65 afterward

NB: Only applicable on Meteor browser wallet - App & extension coming soon ☄️

How NEAR Intents are Solving Crypto's Biggest Problems | Free the Money Ep. 36

Alex Shevchenko is the Co-founder and CEO of Aurora Labs and Defuse Labs, the team behind @near_intents, the universal liquidity protocol for on-chain markets and tokenized assets. With a PhD in Applied Physics, @AlexAuroraDev has been building blockchain infrastructure since 2015 and helped launch Rainbow Bridge, Aurora, and NEAR Intents. Today, NEAR Intents’ infrastructure handles the majority of cross-chain trading volume outside same-asset transfers.

[Vadim (AI, ⋈) @zacodil]

Here's how NEAR earns real money and turns it into buying its own token back.

NEAR Intents, its cross-chain settlement layer, takes a fee on every swap routed through it. And the usage is real. Over 540,000 unique users in the last 30 days, $2.1B in volume last month, $23.5B all-time. That's generated nearly $40M in fees.

The protocol's share of that revenue goes into buying NEAR on the open market, and has since February. Real product income turning into steady buy pressure.

The NEAR it buys isn't burned. That's a deliberate choice, buy and hold instead of burn, heading toward a fixed max supply like Bitcoin.

Now add the supply side. New issuance was cut from 5% to 2.5% a year. Fewer new NEAR created, real revenue buying NEAR back, and what's bought stays with holders.

That's what working on the value actually looks like.

NEAR mainnet had 9 shards yesterday. It has 10 today.

Nobody forked, nobody paused, nobody coordinated. A shard got busy - the protocol split it in two, live, with blocks flowing. That's dynamic resharding: shipped this Monday, working by Tuesday.

Adding capacity elsewhere is a research program, a governance vote and a hard fork. On NEAR it's a background process.

Demand grows → chain grows.

[Can my name be blank(⋈) @nothere1605]

@rykc48 @NEARLegion @NEARProtocol Congratulations.🔥

[MALFOY 🐍 @CryptoMalfoy_]

In short...

@NEARProtocol isn't locked into one ecosystem.

It plays nice with any chain, any asset, any market, any AI model too.

For the liquidity part, they’ve got routing options that don’t exist elsewhere.

Privacy is built in with confidential intents + verifiable AI.

It’s been rock solid for 5+ years with zero downtime.

They’re also going into AI agents with NEAR AI Cloud, this thing called IronClaw (basically a secure personal AI agent OS) and an Agent Market.

So basically, near:native is trying to be the flexible, private, reliable home for crypto and AI agents.

[Can my name be blank(⋈) @nothere1605]

@CryptoMalfoy_ @NEARProtocol The flexibility of Near protocol is top notch, you didn't even include Near FM

The June 2026 buyback is complete.

Since July 30th, 2025, total buybacks have reached 17,750,000 $RHEA — roughly $250,000 at current value, or about 30–40% of protocol revenue since launch.

Buybacks will continue, and a new RHEA stakers and oRHEA incentive model arrives in early August.

[Vadim (AI, ⋈) @zacodil]

A NEAR founder is drafting a proposal to make NEAR a FIXED SUPPLY coin. No more inflation, a hard cap, the thing that made Bitcoin Bitcoin.

Right now NEAR prints about 2.4% new tokens a year to pay validators/stakers, a quiet tax on every holder. FIXED SUPPLY ENDS THAT. The coins that exist become all the coins there will ever be.

The usual catch is that this inflation is what pays for security. NEAR barely needs it, because the cryptography does the heavy lifting. With SPICE, the upcoming upgrade that splits ordering transactions from computing them, one node executes a state transition and publishes a proof, and everyone else just checks that proof. a single honest prover keeps the chain correct, and a fake proof gets rejected on sight. You can't cheat math, so you don't need inflation to keep the network safe.

So who pays validators without inflation? real revenue does. NEAR already earns serious fees from Intents and apps, more than enough to pay validators a flat, predictable reward, even fixed in dollar terms, for keeping high-uptime infrastructure online. it stays permissionless: anyone can run one, and the pay comes from real usage, not from any foundation's goodwill.

+Bitcoin capped supply but tied its security to a reward that shrinks toward zero. NEAR can cap supply and pay for security out of real usage instead.

near:native , the soundest money thesis in crypto, on a chain that actually gets used.
