Key claims
NEAR Intents enables cross-chain DeFi for users, services and AI agents via NEAR accounts
𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗠𝘂𝗹𝘁𝗶𝗰𝗵𝗮𝗶𝗻 𝗘𝗻𝗱𝗴𝗮𝗺𝗲 𝗶𝘀 𝗡𝗘𝗔𝗥 NEAR intents are a novel DeFi primitive baked into the @NEARProtocol tech stack that enables AI agents, users and services to freely engage in economic activity across any chain. Powered by NEAR's native chain abstraction tech (chain signatures), this novel transaction type will unify liquidity across the borders of isolated ecosystems and enable entirely new use cases and user experiences. Leveraging NEAR accounts, any user (whether it's a human or an AI) can access DeFi within one cohesive ecosystem, finally ending the fragmentation of users, liquidity and apps across chains. The NEAR team is shipping so hard, it's difficult to keep up with everything. But if you look closely, it is becoming increasingly clear where all of this is heading as the pieces of the puzzle come together. NEAR will be an epicentre of this bullrun and is leading narratives across the board, from AI to Chain Abstraction. Don't fade $NEAR anon, I've been telling you for long enough now.
