As real-time payments spread in the United States, banks are facing rising pressure to authenticate customers and verify recipient accounts before transfers.

NEAR Protocol co-founder Ilya Polosukhin said centralised exchanges are no longer needed for most trades, citing NEAR.com, which brings spot trades across chains, tokenised stocks, deposit-yield products and perpetual futures onto one screen. He said the service is close to replacing exchanges but still needs features such as bank withdrawals, tax reporting records and selective disclosure for confidential trades. He also highlighted privacy, expanding fiat links and an AI agent market.
