NEAR finally did something genuinely useful: NEAR Business launches on 10/20, bringing company payroll, portfolio rebalancing, and fund allocation on-chain, while keeping exact amounts hidden from the market and visible only to auditors. It spans 35+ chains, connecting everything from $BTC to $XRP . $NEAR briefly rose more than 10%, with a market cap of about $6.8B. Meanwhile, HSP-029 is up for a vote: gradually lower the annual issuance cap from 2.5% to 1.6% over 24 months. A public blockchain that used to sell tokens to fund its team is finally helping businesses manage money—that’s what infrastructure should be for. #NEAR #DeFi
