NEAR Protocol is building the settlement layer for the agentic economy: a blockchain where agents can express outcomes, route cross-chain transactions, and operate with built-in privacy guarantees — without a human in the loop for every step. Illia Polosukhin, Co-Founder of NEAR Protocol and co-author of Google's \"Attention Is All You Need\" — the 2017 paper that introduced the Transformer architecture behind ChatGPT, Gemini, and every major LLM running today — joins Ashton Addison on Blockchain Interviews. Illia breaks down how NEAR Intents lets agents express desired outcomes and have the protocol handle routing, bridging, and gas automatically; how IronClaw enables persistent, privacy-preserving AI agents with controlled access to user assets; and why NEAR just shipped a quantum-proof wallet upgrade at a moment when most of the industry isn't thinking about post-quantum security at all. You'll learn: How NEAR Intents works and why expressing an outcome rather than specifying a route changes what's possible for AI agents in financial workflows What IronClaw adds to the NEAR AI stack — persistent autonomous agents with privacy safeguards and controlled asset access — and who that's built for Why NEAR shipped a quantum-proof wallet and what the post-quantum threat actually means for crypto infrastructure timelines 🔗 https://www.near.org 🐦 https://x.com/NEARProtocol 🔔JOIN OUR FREE NEWSLETTER FOR 100X GAINS🔔: https://cryptocoinshow.substack.com/subscribe","meta_description":"AI agents are already executing financial transactions autonomously — but the infrastructure they're running on was never designed for them.
