I hadn't engage in competition since before my nomadic years. 2 years settled in Barcelona and I felt like I wanted to give my best to 💀 OldSkull BJJ Barcelona 💀 today I'm gold in my category -77kg
Private medical second opinion (#11) and Private code review (#7) could be built with @nova_sdk. We already had MVPs with the same underlying pattern during the NEAR Innovation Sandbox at NEARCon 26.
e g. PrivyFinance does this for financial statements github.com/NOVA-privacy-firs… – at Barcelona, Spain
There are ton of new and old devs building on NEAR in the past couple of weeks. Building itself got easier too, so it's really about what to build and how stand out to get distribution.
Few ideas I wanted to share:
- AI Tamagochi - use @near_ai to run verifiable inference from prompt encoded onchain, have each character as NFT with some $NEAR attached that pays for it's inference, add gamification with feeding, dressing. Can add all kinds of things on top with battle arena, competitions, etc.
- Universal checkout widget - let any merchant/app to add "checkout" button that allows to pay via intents from whatever wallet and chain user has. Offer it to merchants, try to get it into Shopify.
- AI encyclopedia with prediction markets - instead of community curation, every fact becomes a perpetual truth seeking market (Augur style). The final pages are generated by AI based on current market understanding.
- Private OTC market using 'private deals' from NEAR Intents. Currently there is no way to find counter party unless you already know you are transacting with. Create a more open way to communicate what are deals open and allow people to fill them via NEAR Intents.
- "Never get liquidated" - manage positions via NEAR Intents to keep lending and perp positions to maximize interest while not getting liquidated
- Event registration where funds get escrowed and let the host to check in guests. If guests have showed up - they split all contributed funds (prev project was called Kickback). Make crypto side events signups reliable again, now across any chain and any asset.
- Code review that is fully private - agent that verifiably privately runs code review on private PRs using @near_ai - Company cap table + all instruments around it to raise funds, accept crypto and support banking
- Delta neutral anything - take spot + perp controlled via NEAR contract that manages it via NEAR Intents.
- Private trading where you sell your viewing keys for people to follow/copy trade. NEAR Intents confidential trading is all private and so one can have a social trading app where people sell "keys" for only select people to see. PnL can be publicly displayed so people can choose to buy-in.
- Private medical second opinion - medical frontend that e2e encrypts and sends your data to NEAR AI to get second opinion from AI in guaranteed private way. Use it in combination with crypto and fiat payments. Allow to have custom prompts in NFTs that people can use as a way to get better expertise out of agents.
- Private Granola - desktop app that uses @near_ai to do private transcriptions but keeps all your records with you (and encrypted with your key backups). Use $NEAR staking as an alterantive to pay subscriptions.
- AI benchmarking with private test sets. Submit harness (or new model in hosted privately in @near_ai) and evaluate on private tests sets and see results that are certified for given model and given hash of test set, without revealing any data.
Distribution:
- Engage @NEARLegion
- Make sure your app supports every wallet via @aurora Intent Connect, so user from any chain can engage with it without bridging/figuring out NEAR
- Engage other communities by cross pollinating
- Don't forget about Product Hunt & similar product distribution
- And ofc X
TraceCommons emerging in @NEARProtocol ecosystem is a great news for @nova_sdk. They tackle the other half of the problem we both care about: keeping agent data under its owner's control.
A thread on why NOVA x TraceCommons are complementary 👇 @zmanian
So yeah, seeing TraceCommons in the @NEARProtocol ecosystem is a good signal for @nova_sdk.
Two NEAR-native projects independently landing on local-first, client-controls-plaintext, TEE-backed, server-untrusted architecture isn't a coincidence.
It's the direction agent-data infrastructure is heading.
Ravi de rejoindre @sename__ et les entrepreneurs et penseurs de l'ecosysteme @woelab à Lomé, Togo pour un hackathon @AIforGood.
Je parlerai de Privacité et de Souveraineté des données à l'ère des agents IA (en français).

Going to be talking with @jcarbonnell and how A.I. is empowering him as a builder and his experience with @NEARLegion Barcelona 🇪🇸
Will probably also make fun of the French 🇫🇷 🥐

Love to see it, @InnovAlain shipped a working demo this round real, functional, and worth a look this was just the experimental run, bigger things coming.
if you're building, we want you in the next one.

The energy in Barcelona was real.
Sovereignty talks, agent security, builder networking, and unforgettable vibes.
Thank you to everyone who joined us!
The Legion keeps growing.

I’ve been thinking about this more, specifically about how the Chicago crypto tax isn’t a tax on self custody, but instead on the companies that make money from custody of your electronic funds.
I’ve been reminded of this in @jcarbonnell’s presentation at today’s @IronClawAI hackathon in Barcelona. As we enter the agentic economy, I want to make sure I own my agent and my keys. That my decisions are private and secure, and that, most conveniently, this tax is not passed down to me.
I’m not saying I like the tax or the bill it's written in, but I do think it has unexpected benefits for the private, the sovereign, and the direction it could push the market. And I think that companies can still win by reducing both their compliance risk and their tax risk, following versions of this model.
Today is the day! Submit your agent via the @IronClawAI hackathon skill and join us at the celebration party @42BarcelonaFTef if you are in Barcelona.
All steps with prompts described in the repo github.com/jcarbonnell/ironc… – at Barcelona, Spain
Replying to @NEARLegion
@NEARLegion joins @42BarcelonaFTef to organize the first @IronClawAI #hackathon in #Barcelona!
Save the date of the 18th of June to demo your best sovereign AI agents, and come celebrate with us at the campus!

missed day one of the barcelona ironclaw hackathon?
this catches you up fast,
(the submission flow alone is worth the read, you literally have your agent send the project for you)
