PANews reported on May 28 that, according to the official blog, Grayscale set up the "AI encryption sector" as the sixth largest cryptocurrency classification standard. The sector contains 20 tokens with a total market capitalization of $21 billion (up 366% from Q1 2023) and is divided into three main subcategories:1. AI platforms: such as Bittensor and Near, which provide decentralized AI development infrastructure; 2.AI tools and resources, including Grass (data collection) and Akash (computing marketplace); 3.AI applications and proxies: such as Virtuals (autonomous AI agents) and Worldcoin (human authentication). The report points out that the current AI crypto sector only accounts for 0.67% of the market capitalization of the entire crypto market, but the potential is huge. Bittensor will usher in an ICO halving this year, and its subnet ecosystem has exceeded 7% of its circulating supply since its upgrade in February. Projects such as Grass have achieved tens of millions of dollars in annualized revenue, showing progress in commercialization. Grayscale has laid out this field through products such as Bittensor trust, and believes that blockchain technology can solve the hidden dangers of AI centralized development. With the advancement of the stablecoin bill, the payment infrastructure of crypto-native AI agents is expected to accelerate the improvement.

In 2020, the decentralized finance (DeFi) sector saw significant growth, leading to a surge of decentralized applications (dApps) on the Ethereum network. This surge underscored some of Ethereum's scalability challenges, pointing to the necessity for a more robust solution. Responding to this need, Near Protocol emerged as a community-oriented cloud computing platform aiming to mitigate these constraints.

What is Near Protocol 

NEAR is a community-driven cloud computing platform that adopts the Proof of Stake (PoS) consensus mechanism. With its user-friendly interface and smart contract capabilities, NEAR seeks to empower developers to effortlessly design and deploy innovative dApps and DeFi solutions. Furthermore, its unique design allows users to engage with dApps and smart contracts without requiring a wallet.

The Near Protocol team

Erik Trautman, an entrepreneur boasting Wall Street experience and founder of Viking Education, pioneered NEAR. Alongside him are co-founders Illia Polusukhin, a former Google employee, and Alexander Skidanov, an ex-Microsoft staffer. Under their leadership, NEAR has amassed a skilled cohort of developers, featuring International Collegiate Programming Contest gold medalists.

How does Near Protocol work

Utilizing sharding technology, NEAR improves transaction speed and volume. By distributing its computational load across multiple shards, each node runs only the relevant code for its assigned shard, optimizing scalability. NEAR's Blockchain Operating System (BOS), grounded in JavaScript, ensures developers can use a familiar programming language. The platform provides ready-made components, facilitating quicker product development. Moreover, users can swiftly access the system without needing to own or use cryptocurrency.

NEAR tokenomics

NEAR's native token, NEAR, was launched on October 13, 2020, with a total supply of 1 billion tokens. The token offers several use cases, from paying transaction gas fees to staking for rewards. Additionally, it plays a role in governance, data storage, and access to services and applications on the Near Protocol.

NEAR distribution

NEAR was distributed in the following way:

  • 17.2 percent: Community grants and programs
  • 15.23 percent: Seed round
  • 14 percent: Core contributors
  • 11.76 percent: Early ecosystem development
  • 11.4 percent: Operation grants
  • 12 percent: Community sales
  • 10 percent: Foundation
  • 8.41 percent: Venture round

Near Protocol: The road ahead

Created for robustness and efficiency, NEAR offers a platform free from intermediaries, permitting users to independently publish and host applications. This commitment to progress is reflected in their Q3 2023 announcement, heralding phase 2 of sharding to enhance the sharding process and improve scalability.
