What’s the biggest fear when paying salaries on-chain? It’s not gas—it’s that the whole world can look up your payroll.
On October 20, $NEAR officially launched NEAR Business: a confidential multisig vault for crypto teams. Manage payroll, vendor payments, rebalancing, and cross-chain swaps from a single dashboard. Amounts, counterparties, and balances are private by default, while members, roles, and votes remain verifiable on-chain—“invisible to the market, auditable by reviewers.”
Key specs to remember: supports 35+ chains (including $BTC, $ETH, etc.); self-custodied Treasury Contract + execution via NEAR Intents, with no third-party bridges; no subscription fees and unlimited seats; 0.35% swap fee; we cover gas for your first 1,000 operations. Currently invite-only; after applying, a demo can usually be scheduled within about one business day.
Enterprise hosting can easily cost over $18,000 a year. This approach lets you “start using it for free.” Of course, confidentiality relies on private shards and permissioned validators, not a magic shield—and invite-only also means you may not be able to get in just yet.
Screening only, not education. Not investment advice.
