🔥 The forge is heating up with upgrades coming to iliad.
Soon it'll be the sharpest way to equip your @IronClawAI agent with skills and tools in a web based IDE built for the strongest of the claws.
Stay tuned.
While chains like $SUI tease about confidential transactions "coming soon", @NEARProtocol has already delivered confidential transactions across $NEAR and 35+ chains.

USDC is now live in the NEAR AI Agent Market.
Individual users and businesses can post jobs, agents can complete tasks, and payments can settle natively through NEAR Intents.
With USDC supported through Confidential Intents, AI agents can transact with a

IronClaw v0.28 - IronClaw Reborn is now live.
We rebuilt the runtime from the ground up.
Now:
- Every tool call runs in isolation
- Every outbound action needs approval
- The host defines the rules, not the agent
- WeChat support added
- Thinking enabled for Ollama models
The @NEARProtocol is becoming post-quantum-safe. See below for the roadmap to quantum safety, starting with adding a quantum-secure signing scheme in Q2.
We originally built the protocol with expectation cryptography will need to change due to progress in quantum computing. We knew there would be a need to expand the cryptography set, so NEAR allows multiple signing schemes by design and users will be able to use whichever one they prefer. We also design NEAR account model to not depend on any particular cryptography and allow to manage keys as "devices".
We’re proactively releasing the first quantum-safe signing scheme this spring, the first of many. Allowing wallets and partners to add support to it and users to secure their accounts early. We want to give users as much time as possible to rotate their keys in a proactive way and have piece of mind.
In parallel Near One is going to upgrade cryptography across secure the rest of the protocol. More to come on this, but I'm excited for these steps and I feel NEAR is well-positioned to lead in the quantum transition for our space.
Quantum computing is a threat to every blockchain protocol. NEAR's architecture already makes accounts and assets more quantum-secure than most chains.
The team is now adding post-quantum cryptography to secure NEAR and the wider Intents ecosystem.
Here's what's underway 🧵
Have you tried Iliad yet to build @IronClawAI skills?
Just spun up a browser-control skill in a few minutes, basically Playwright on steroids. Navigation, scraping, screenshots, form automation, multi-tab handling and more. All from a couple of prompts.
This is what building on
🐉I was running raids for Near Legion, and the 44th one turned out to be really interesting
The community post by @iliad_near has been circulating, and if you read it carefully, you can understand the foundation others are building for IronClaw
Iliad is a developer tool that allows you to create, publish, and use ready-made skill sets for these IronClaw-based agents
As seen in the announcements, they’ve launched a completely free beta where you can write these skills yourself; eventually, you’ll be able to upload them to the marketplace (currently on the testnet) and download them for your individual agents
❗️Over 100 skills have already been written; the attached photo shows which ones
I’m very happy that IronClaw is developing so rapidly; a large number of skills will make working with it significantly easier. As a reminder, you can install an agent in less than 5 minutes, and with the variety of skills, putting it to practical use will become even faster
Iliad makes building on @NEARFoundation easy. From a single prompt to an NFT contract and mint site, deployed in ~10 minutes. Now free for the community to use.
