It introduces a cross-chain payment tool that can route any token to any supported blockchain. The key point is that it can keep key transaction details private. It is expected that the new feature rollout will simplify user interactions with blockchain. The release mentioned that the new system combines bridging, swapping, and settlement into a single action. However, the details about the sender or transfer amounts remain hidden on public explorers. This comes in when the global crypto market witnessed a minor recovery in altcoins. Bitcoin remained stuck around the $73k levels while NEAR printed a green index. Its price jumped by more than 3% in the last 24 hours. NEAR is traded at $2.43 at the press time.

Dogecoin loses its strengh XRP pushed to the edge Despite experiencing a strong post-rally correction, Near is getting close to a potentially significant technical milestone. Few traders anticipated a potential golden cross formation just weeks ago, but the chart now shows the 50-day moving average quickly rising toward the 200-day moving average.

Arthur Hayes said NEAR and Zcash form the core of his privacy trade, arguing that crypto markets are beginning to reprice assets tied to private value transfer, AI-era sovereignty and real protocol economics. In an interview with The Rollup, the Maelstrom CIO said NEAR could offer “20x potential,” while Zcash may have “5x potential” over the next year, framing both assets as part of a broader reaction to “big tech, big government” and AI-driven surveillance. Hayes’ thesis starts with a macro shift. Earlier this year, he said he had been cautious because Bitcoin appeared to be pricing in an “AI deflationary credit event,” with monetary authorities unlikely to print aggressively until a crisis forced their hand. That changed, he argued, after the Iran conflict crystallized a liquidity-positive setup for markets. “Governments print money to win war. AI is part of war. The AI capex will be underwritten, both in the United States and China, by the governments,” Hayes said. He added that gov
