Holdings
The busiest fast chain today. Most of the trading, memecoins and consumer apps on fast chains live here.
Runs NEAR Intents, which lets one account swap across chains. If that way of using crypto catches on, NEAR benefits most.
Thesis
Solana and NEAR both bet that people want cheap, fast transactions. Solana has the most trading and app activity of any fast chain today. NEAR has NEAR Intents, which lets one account swap across many chains, and it already routes real volume. Holding both is a bet that fast chains keep winning users from slower ones, without having to pick which design wins.
Risks
Both are high-risk crypto assets and usually move together, so this bag doesn't spread risk much. Both fell more than 90% from their 2021 highs, and the backtest shows a 94% worst drop. Outages, rival chains and new token supply can push prices down.
Exit signal
Sell if NEAR Intents volume shrinks for two quarters in a row, or if either chain loses most of its apps to a rival.
