We're RAIDing the gap between AI agents and blockchain. Just deployed something wild on NEAR - an AI-powered token that turns every transaction into a battle arena. Let me tell you how $RAID actually works... New generation of autonomous agents only possible on NEAR 🧵

How to Make AI Models More Useful? Discover the potential of AI and blockchain, and how features like RAG and TEEs can help NEAR unlock its full potential to build the world's best truly open AI. TL;DR - RAG (Retrieval-Augmented Generation) enhances AI agents by personalizing responses with relevant context. - Blockchain ensures transactions are processed transparently, efficiently, and securely. - NEAR Protocol is designed for AI, featuring a sharding architecture that supports high transaction volumes at low fees without compromising performance. It also offers privacy, user-owned data, and monetization opportunities. Study the NEAR stack, explore how to make AI models useful:

NEAR had every ingredient for the 2024 and 2025 AI run and it still made a new low. I followed the project since 2023, through the whole pivot from layer 1 into AI, and that one fact keeps it off my buy list.

NEAR is about to let its blockchain add capacity on its own NEAR Protocol's v2.13 upgrade lands this month, introducing dynamic resharding that auto-splits shards as demand grows, with no validator votes or manual coordination. It also adds post-quantum-safe signing. The pitch: become the settlement layer for autonomous AI agents. NEAR Intents has processed ~$20B in volume, with fees auto-buying $NEAR on the open market. Bitwise's NEAR Staking ETP is seeing steady inflows.
