Near Protocol (NEAR)

$NEAR spot starting to move. EP so far is 2.093, wouldn't mind a cheeky lil memeline breakout on it https://t.co/ViCXosR8wi

Every major computing wave so far has ended in consolidation. The platform captures the model, the data, and the relationship, and the user becomes the input. AI is running that playbook faster than anything before it, because an agent that holds your credentials and acts for you is the most valuable relationship in software. Whoever controls that agent's keys and its execution controls the economics underneath. So ownership is really about control, and it gets settled at the protocol layer not the app layer. You can't bolt user ownership onto a stack that custodies the keys and runs inference in a black box. It has to be the foundation. @NEARProtocol made that call in 2018. @ilblackdragon and the team decoupled accounts from their signing keys, built chain abstraction so an agent can act across chains without surrendering custody, and pushed verifiable execution so you can prove what a model actually did. The premise was that technology would eventually act on your behalf and you'd still need to own th

NEAR@3.33 is live for Confidential Intents users on https://t.co/YBUSFVdjxE. When Confidential Intents TVL reaches $70M, eligible users receive NEAR@3.33. It converts 1:1 into NEAR only after NEAR holds a $3.33 VWAP for 3 consecutive days. The community sets the pace. https://t.co/Evg55lzV7b

👨‍🏭 building cross-platform NEAR apps just got much easier! + the whole ecosystem (and token) benefit from that + touches 30% of all iOS apps and over 1M devs # EXPLANATION a community builder dropped a full set of packages that let devs work with NEAR directly from Flutter/Dart no need to fight with JS bridges or rewrite core logic when building on top of Google's stack for mobile, desktop, and web here's what it gives devs + near_dart: local signing with ed25519, high-level Account API for transfers and contract calls, type-safe primitives + near_jsonrpc_client: clean, typed RPC calls (synced from nearcore) + near_wallet_connect: easy integration with MyNearWallet and local signing flows it works on iOS, Android, Web, and Desktop from the same codebase this matters because Flutter already powers ~30% of new free iOS apps and has over 1 million active developers a lot of those people are building beautiful, high-performance UIs fast with those ## FOR NEAR now they can add real NEAR functionality
