tldr - Bitget hackers tried to move >$50M through NEAR Intents and the NEAR Intents team swiftly coordinated to stop $49.83M from being laundered by the hackers.
NEAR Intents is not for unlawful actors. Accelerate.
Now is probably a once in a decade window of opportunity for each and every team in the NEAR ecosystem to lock the fuck in and get things done.
We must outwork everyone, single-mindedly focused on making NEAR a top 10 crypto asset.
The tailwind will take care of the rest.
Memetic relevance was NEAR's biggest FDV hurdle. It is neither old enough to be in the class of dino coins, nor new enough for the class of the sexy rollups and move coins.
NEAR finally has the revenue, products and narrative to compete for a spot in the > $25 billion FDV club.
A lot of OGs faded @NEARProtocol because it always seemed slightly out of touch with the meta. Now NEAR is dead centre on chain abstraction, AI and revenue (still a meta 😅). The tech has always been great but narrative didn't line up, now it has and it is going to keep ripping.
When you get the chance to work for the author of the most consequential AI research paper, you bet your career on it.
Replying to @chronear
