Recently, @NEARProtocol conducted a light interview in a simple question format with their representative Illia, addressing various curiosities about the project. I think this type of content is good because it feels light and approachable. In fact, when looking at the camera angle, not only Illia but also Erika appeared in the middle, and while I could hear Illia speaking, I honestly found myself watching Erika chase the boiled egg she was putting in her salad. (The camera angle was too wide, lol) However, there was a really important core message in what Illia said: "If centralized AI wins, then Web3 AI is unnecessary. If one company takes everything, we won't need to ask anything elsewhere!" DeFi, which was called a financial innovation or interruption, is still in its early stages, but if it provides the infrastructure that allows us to borrow without banks, provide liquidity directly, and engage in economic/financial activities, decentralized AI will create an environment where we can utilize AI without relying on specific companies. It was a short but powerful message emphasizing the need for such an environment.

Is there a logic to the rise and fall of the market? - There must be. But it is certainly not random, otherwise Wall Street will not survive, and market makers will have no food to eat. What really drives the price is the capital structure + emotional cycle + institutional game. 1⃣ Capital structure: who is present, who leaves, who has leverage, and who is forced to close the position. Rise and fall are often the transfer of chips between different groups, not news-driven, but position-driven. 2⃣ Emotional cycle: greed and fear are always pulling, and the essence of market ups and downs is the amplification of emotional fluctuations - at the top, the good also falls; At the bottom, the bearish also rose. Prices do not reflect facts, prices first amplify expectations, and then shape facts in turn. 3⃣ Institutional game: regulation, monetary policy, exchange rules, determine whether money can come in and how quickly it can go out, and then determine the speed and magnitude of fluctuations. In other words: The logic of the rise and fall of the market is not the logic of price →, but the logic of → capital flow → price, and then the price retraces to the influence logic. If you try to explain the reasons for rising or falling with a single formula, you will be disappointed! Today is a red day, which is very suitable for thinking about the logic of your next operation!

Dive deeper into Near Protocol

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.
