$NEAR might end up being one of the biggest AI plays of this entire cycle. Most people still look at NEAR as just another Layer 1, but the project has been positioning itself heavily around AI, chain abstraction and making Web3 easier to use. That combination could become extremely powerful if the AI narrative really explodes again. The crazy part? NEAR already has the infrastructure, ecosystem and brand recognition. It doesn’t need to appear out of nowhere and convince the market it belongs here. If capital starts rotating hard into AI coins again, I seriously doubt NEAR stays ignored. People always chase the narrative after it pumps. I’d rather be watching before everyone starts talking about it.
