58 source posts analyzed· 2026-07-22T13:18:02+00:00Most chains cannot upgrade their cryptography without changing every address on the network. The constraint is architectural.
· 2026-07-22T19:54:24+00:00NEAR mainnet now automatically scales with demand. Yesterday, the protocol dynamically resharded from 9 to 10 shards when a shard hit its state size threshold. It split deterministically and was validated with no human intervention. Dynamic resharding live and working.
AI visual analysis: The image compares manual resharding, which takes weeks to months per shard addition and requires multiple human-led steps (identifying scale needs, preparing upgrades, coordinating with validators, voting, and splitting), to NEAR Protocol's dynamic resharding, which automatically splits shards like Shard A into A₀ and A₁ when a state size threshold is reached, completing the process in ~1.5 epochs (~11 hours) with no downtime and no human input—directly illustrating the post's announcement that NEAR mainnet now automatically scales with demand.
· 2026-07-22T18:07:07+00:00Franklin Templeton's Head of Digital Assets: blockchains to become "the foundational delivery layer" for agentic transactions. The agent economy is bound to move onchain. Machine-to-machine transactions need secure, verifiable, and high-throughput infrastructure
· 2026-07-22T22:39:17+00:00AI agents and models are now capable enough to discover and exploit novel attack paths in live systems, autonomously, as a side effect of pursuing a narrow goal. As agents take on more sensitive work, the infrastructure they run on has to factor in these risks and behaviors.
· 2026-07-22T16:29:47+00:00NEAR is open infrastructure that is designed to support any chain, any model, any payment rail, and any on/off-ramp an agent may use. NEAR’s aim is to provide an agnostic and universal coordination layer for the agent economy

· 2026-07-22T05:30:31+00:00$NEAR is the future [Spoken audio]: computing is gonna accelerate from here. And so we think it's important to give users as much time as possible to really rotate their keys. And so that's why we released this really kind of early. We think we're probably one of the first ones, if not the first to do this. We're partnering also with partners like on the wallet side who's gonna offer that. And so the goal is to let you have a post quantum secure wallet.

What stood out to me from The Worldwide Quantum Computer wasn't just the focus on security—it was the bigger vision. While many projects are [Spoken audio]: When thinking about quantum computing, one of the most important parts is also accessibility. You shouldn't have to have a PhD to get a good result out of quantum computers. We really want to demystify that and we really want to try and coin lateral computing as the way to describe what we do. Just like you use deep use to parallelize your compute, chop up your solution into multiple problems and operate on those pieces simultaneously, quantum computers are really just about thinking about your problem differently. How can you rotate the problem? How can you fold the problem? How can you make it something more tractable that the quantum computer can operate on in a way that classical computers cannot?
