Infinex Integrates NEAR Technologies for Unified BTC and Altcoin Access
Key Facts
Infinex integrated NEAR Chain Signatures and NEAR Intents technologies to provide unified cross-chain access. According to coinpaper.com, this integration allows users to access and manage assets including Bitcoin, DOGE, and XRP through a single interface, simplifying interactions with non-smart contract networks.
The integration leverages NEAR’s chain-abstraction infrastructure, where Chain Signatures utilize a multi-party computation network secured by NEAR validators to authorize transactions on external chains. NEAR protocol documentation indicates that its Intents system currently connects 31 chains and over 100 assets, with more than $30 billion in all-time volume, positioning the protocol as a universal liquidity layer for decentralized applications.
