- Integrating the BNB chain with close intentions allows for instant cross chain swap with no bridging, slip or latency.
- Nearby, Web3 is expanding by combining AI roles, smart contracts, and high-speed track support for distributed AI agents development.
Every day in the crypto world, we don’t bring news that feels truly practical. However, the latest integration of intentions close to the BNB chain appears to fall into the category that brings users to smile.
Currently, users can directly exchange assets such as BNB, ETH, BTC, SOL, ZEC, and more nearby. There is no bridge. This process is fast, efficient and hassle-free. It feels like you’re going through the toll plaza on the highway. Just tap it.
Say gm to @bnbchain – I now live with a close intention.
Instant exchange of native $bnb, $eth, $btc, $sol, $near, $zec, etc. There is no bridging. There is no slip. I’m not waiting.This is an AI blockchain. This is a user-owned future. pic.twitter.com/8cjdeier1x

The close intentions don’t feel like technology, they feel like personal assistants
The close intention itself has been in the spotlight since the beginning of the year. This is not only because of cross-chain efficiency, but because of the different approaches. This relies on the intention-driven concept that users simply state their destinations and agents on the network automatically perform the best transactions.
It’s like having a personal assistant who knows you want to buy coffee in the cheapest places without spending five cafes first.
Thus, when the BNB chain chose to participate in a close intention, the context became much wider. It is part of an ecosystem that is developing in a more integrated direction, not just in high speed swap.
When AI takes the wheel with Web3 decisions
But wait, there are other interesting things that play a role in this development. Meanwhile, CNF previously highlighted the launch of its nearby protocol, “House of Stake,” which introduces an AI-based role in blockchain governance.
From assistants and representatives to pretty bold concepts and AI CEOs. Venear token owners can lock the token and gain greater voting rights. So the more active you become, the more you hear.
Furthermore, nearby is actually developing a new face for Web3. Last January, they partnered with DWF Labs to fund the development of a decentralized AI agent. The funds paid up to $20 million, with teams on the market building smart contract-based AI and other tools.
Not only that, they also included the Horizon AI program, which acts like a fast truck for adventure through funds. From there, we know that AI will be the mainstay of crypto ecosystems in the future.
Then in May, the turn of NTT Data, a global consulting firm that has so far been well known in the enterprise sector, went down the mountain and operated a validator node nearby.
It’s not about showing off a big logo, it’s about technically strengthening networks near the network in terms of security, scalability and decentralization. The existence of NTT Data can also be interpreted as a signal that major players outside the crypto industry are beginning to take it seriously nearby.
Meanwhile, at the time of reporting, I have changed my hands at about the nearest time. $2.40below 12.38% Over the past seven days, the market capitalization has fallen below $3 billion.
