About NEAR Protocol

NEAR Protocol is a layer-1 blockchain that, according to its own website, now positions itself around powering an "agent economy" by unifying liquidity across more than 35 chains. CoinMarketCap tags it with AI & Big Data, Account Abstraction, Cross-Chain and Data Availability categories among many ecosystem and investor-portfolio tags.

The official Telegram chat (@cryptonear), listed by the project on CoinMarketCap, carries Telegram's verification checkmark, is titled "NEAR Protocol Official" and had about 46,000 members as of 26.09.2026. No preview posts were available, so its current discussion topics cannot be described. A smaller regional community group serves users in the Philippines.

The chat's status is confirmed both by manual review by the catalog's editors and by Telegram's own verification badge, plus its listing on CoinMarketCap. Given the project's size and the number of chains it now touches, it is worth confirming any wallet or bridge instructions against near.org before following links shared elsewhere.
