NEAR and TRON enable seamless cross-chain stablecoin transfers with NEAR Intents integration

Geneva, Switzerland, September 4, 2025 – TRON DAO, the community-governed DAO dedicated to accelerating the decentralization of the internet through blockchain technology and decentralized applications (dApps), today announced a strategic collaboration with NEAR to integrate NEAR Intents on the TRON blockchain. The integration enables seamless swaps through a frictionless, intent-based experience for users and ecosystem developers. NEAR Intents is a multichain transaction protocol that allows users to make a request and let third parties compete to provide the best solution. The protocol can be applied to a wide range of use cases, creating a universal marketplace across crypto and traditional services.

NEAR Intents redefines user experience and onboarding across the greater crypto space by abstracting away blockchain complexity. The addition of TRON to NEAR’s chain abstraction stack represents a major milestone, unlocking cross-chain transfers that require no wallet setup, no bridging, and no awareness of chain mechanics required for users on one of the world’s most active blockchains. NEAR’s chain abstraction allows AI to interact with assets, applications, and services across multiple chains as if they were a single system, streamlining user behaviors into clear and direct actions. By integrating TRON, which hosts one of the largest global blockchain user communities, NEAR demonstrates how chain abstraction can be leveraged to increase adoption by removing friction for users at scale.

“NEAR Intents going live on TRON is a significant step in making blockchain technology more accessible and powerful for users worldwide,” said Sam Elfarra, Community Spokesperson for the TRON DAO. “Combining TRON’s massive user base with NEAR’s innovative chain abstraction technology positions both ecosystems to drive the next phase of Web3 adoption.”

“Swapping native assets in a single click delivers true interoperability, unlocking new possibilities in DeFi and AI for users and builders on TRON,” said Illia Polosukhin, co-founder of NEAR Protocol. “We’re happy to welcome the TRON community into the NEAR Intents ecosystem and continue advancing the unified liquidity layer.”

As TRON continues to advance to meet the growing needs of institutions, emerging opportunities in stablecoin innovation, agent-driven finance, and AI-powered intents will further reinforce its standing as a leading blockchain. By combining institutional-scale capability with a commitment to financial inclusion, TRON is laying the groundwork for mainstream adoption and a more accessible global economy.

The blockchain industry is moving toward greater interoperability, and NEAR Intents on TRON demonstrates how barriers to entry can be removed while scaling decentralized finance. Developers interested in integrating TRON cross-chain capabilities can access documentation and resources at SwapKit.dev, while users can begin experiencing seamless USDT swaps immediately through supported wallets and applications.
