Fun fact: did you know the “NEAR” in NEAR Protocol was inspired by Ray Kurzweil’s book The Singularity Is Near? NEAR started as an AI project in 2017, before becoming a blockchain. The AI connection was there from day one.

$NEAR is getting faster. The next upgrade, SPICE, is a big step toward Nightshade 3.0 and works like a busy restaurant. Today the waiter waits for the kitchen to cook before taking the next order. With SPICE, the waiter just keeps taking orders while the kitchen cooks. Blocks go from 0.6s to 0.2s, about 3x faster, and payments feel final in around 0.4s. 🍽️👨🍳⏱️🚀⚡️ source: https://t.co/pQZ3ph7pCj
@numeris24 I checked the trades. they didn't dump at all. mainly two swing traders who bought low did.. one sold 7.5k worth in one clip and another for roughly 4k. it's all on chain. you can verify yourself. unfortunately these traders have no respect for the chart/holders at all.

iykyk. the OGs will know. we've upped our game and have sent about 10% of the supply to the early core contributors so far, some of which came from our own funds. 4th straight day of paid dexscreener in a row. the lore has never been this strong.
$SINGULARTY is the most on-brand meme on NEAR, and i'm holding it. NEAR's name comes from Ray Kurzweil's book "The Singularity Is Near".
in 2017 Illia Polosukhin and Alex Skidanov started NEAR(.)ai with one north star: build the singularity. that same year Illia co-wrote "Attention Is All You Need", the Transformer paper behind today's LLMs. the AI plan stalled, they pivoted to blockchain in 2018, and now NEAR is back in AI.
this week near.near, an account from 2020, launched $SINGULARTY ("Singularity is NEAR"). what the chain shows:
> the creator bought ~93 NEAR in the first 3 minutes and hasn't sold a single token
> 1% tax on every buy and sell, 100% paid out to holders
> 4% gifted to six older NEAR accounts, none of it sold
full disclosure: haenko.near is one of those six. near.near sent me 5M and i'm holding them. not financial advice.
the main risk is concentration: the top 20 wallets hold half of the supply outside the pool.
singularity is NEAR.
The funds from the $3.8M NEAR Intents hack were sent back in full.

$NEAR finality is like a stamp at the post office. A new block lands every 0.6 seconds, and in about 1.2 seconds your transaction is final. Stamped. Done. No going back. No waiting for 6 confirmations, no "pending" stress. Pay, swap or send, and it is settled before you blink twice. 📮⏱️✅🔒⚡️source: https://t.co/JqTJXtEtJ8

@SingulartyNEAR@ilblackdragon@ekuzyakov@Cameron_Dennis_@pikespeak_ai proud to be in this company.
yesterday I spent the last of the NEAR I was keeping for gas on various memecoins, and this morning I see fresh NEAR has already landed from the trading tax on $Singularity, which I can spend on new memecoins.
And I love it. 😅
