NEAR rose about 35% over the past week, according to the article, as attention centered on upcoming network upgrades and broader platform capabilities. The report says NEAR plans to introduce dynamic resharding (adjusting blockchain capacity automatically) by the end of June, a scaling approach intended to help a blockchain distribute workload more efficiently as demand changes. It also says version 2.13 will add post-quantum signatures (cryptography designed for quantum threats), a security feature aimed at strengthening resilience against future computing risks, and support for AI agents (autonomous software tools), which can expand blockchain-based automation and machine-driven interactions.
