NEAR is a high-performance blockchain with 8 shards live on mainnet, sub-second finality, and AI-optimized infrastructure including DCML for verifiable ML, AITP for agentic commerce, and much more. @NEARProtocol also powers the NEAR Intents framework for scalable cross-chain DeFi, and MPC-powered chain signatures with continuous key rotation enable natively chain abstracted accounts with top tier security. This primes NEAR to serve as an economic base layer for widespread AI adoption acting as cost-efficient payment rails, especially as it is also home to the @near_ai hub. NEAR AI provides free inference and broad smart contract integrations for building user-owned agents, accelerating open-source AI development. In November last year, NEAR also announced plans to build the largest open-source AI model in existence in-house. Don't think you are ready for what happens to the $NEAR price when the above thesis plays out and the NEAR ecosystem turns into an agent-centric economy that acts as a global hub for agentic capital that is autonomously deployed across ecosystems in a full chain-abstracted manner. Bull case is clear (and huge) imo.
