NEAR is the go-to Layer for Zcash Transfers Transferring Zcash meant using centralized exchanges, creating an account, and waiting 30 minutes. This is no longer the case. Today, NEAR Intents transfers native $ZEC through 30+ chains, including Ethereum and Solana, in just a few seconds for less than a cent. There is no need to manually bridge and interact with destination-chain contracts. According to NEAR Protocol, users transferred over $2.4 billion in ZEC using NEAR intents, representing huge adoption. NEAR has become the layer of choice for Zcash.

Arthur on why the Zcash and NEAR integration is the quietly building mechanism that flips NEAR from inflationary to deflationary "Shielded Zcash lets you swap and send any coin, USDT on Tron, Bitcoin, anything, and that transaction will not point back to you. Completely anonymous" "The integration between shielded Zcash and NEAR intents means every time one of these transactions happens the NEAR protocol earns a fee" "If volumes grow that fee accumulates over time and flips NEAR from an inflationary to a deflationary protocol. That is what will cause the price to rocket higher"

NEW EP: Inside NEAR Protocol 10+ Years Building Toward the Agent Economy with Illia Polosukhin (Illia (root.near) (🇺🇦, ⋈)) From pioneering the transformer architecture now used in every AI stack to building the rails for the agent economy, NEAR Co-Founder Illia Polosukhin connects the full arc in this inaugural episode of “Inside NEAR,” a new quarterly series on The Rollup. Illia breaks down NEAR’s early architectural bets that are now paying off, why privacy had to be a base-layer choice, and how it all culminates in NEAR becoming AI money: the unit of account for inference, compute, and every agent-to-agent transaction settling onchain. With $20 billion+ in Intents volume and a path to deflation, the thesis is simple: NEAR’s TAM isn't crypto, it's all of commerce. Timestamps: 00:00 Intro 01:38 State Of NEAR Quarterly 04:32 The Transformer's Origin Story 06:51 NEAR Started As AI 11:40 Post-Quantum Crypto Coming Soon 13:48 Root Of Trust Solved 19:36 Target Market All Commerce 20:41 AI Frontend Blockchain Backend 22:44 Confidential Intents TVL Rising 28:51 Fee Switch Turned On 34:04 NEAR Is AI Money 36:30 One Line Changes Reality Full episode links below.

Ep. 20 | Free The Money | How NEAR Intents Fix DeFi UX In this episode, I sit down with Harshit Tiwari (chronear), Head of Ecosystem Strategy at the NEAR Foundation, to break down NEAR Intents, one of the fastest-growing cross-chain protocols. At its core, NEAR Intents allows users to seamlessly move assets across chains without needing to think about bridges, liquidity, or execution. Instead of manually swapping tokens, users simply express what they want (an “intent”), and a network of competing solvers executes the trade, optimizing for the best price and fastest settlement. A major innovation discussed is confidential intents, which bring privacy to on chain trading, something historically missing in crypto. This is especially critical for institutional adoption, where large players require discretion similar to traditional finance (e.g. dark pools). Looking ahead, Harshit predicts a major shift toward AI-driven economies, where autonomous agents transact on behalf of users. Within 12–18 months, AI agents could dominate on-chain activity, executing trades, payments, and real-world tasks through intent-based systems. NEAR is building toward: • Tokenized equities • An open-source AI stack — NEAR AI is already live today • A world where users own their data, not centralized platforms • And a model where ecosystem activity ultimately feeds back into value accrual for NEAR holders Sign up for ITrustCapitol with this link for $100 funding bonus. See why people are opening a tax-advantaged Crypto, Gold & Silver IRA for their future: If you’re being moved onto a platform you didn’t choose, with higher fees, there are better options. iTrustCapital gives you more control, better pricing, and now a limited time 2% match to make the move even more compelling. 00:00 Intro: NEAR = Universal Transaction Layer for AI Economy 01:00 What Are NEAR Intents? (Fixing Cross-Chain Fragmentation) 02:26 Confidential Intents: Bringing Privacy to On-Chain Trading 04:50 Institutional Adoption Is Already Here (What Changes Next) 05:38 Chain Abstraction + User-First UX (Why This Wins) 06:32 Competing with Coinbase & Binance UX (DeFi’s Big Unlock) 06:58 iTrustCapital Ad (Gold, Crypto, IRA Strategy) 08:00 Why CEX UX Still Dominates (and How NEAR Fixes It) 09:35 One Interface for Everything: The NEAR “Super App” Vision 10:13 Intents = Decentralized Fiverr (Solvers Compete for Best Price) 11:24 AI Agents Will Transact More Than Humans (12–18 Months?) 13:10 Decentralized AI vs Big Tech (Who Controls Your Data?) 14:24 NEAR AI: User-Owned, Open-Source, Verifiable AI 15:54 NEAR Tokenomics: Value Accrual + Buybacks Explained 17:37 Deflationary Token Model (Why Supply Could Shrink) 18:19 Stocks & Commodities Coming to NEAR Intents 20:29 “Trillions of AI Agents” Thesis Explained 22:43 Regulation, AI, and Working With Governments
