NEAR Protocol Introduces Cross-Chain Transaction Privacy Execution Feature, Confidential Intents, Bringing Privacy Execution Layer to Cross-Chain Transactions
NEAR rolled out its Confidential Intents feature on February 25—a built-in cross-chain transaction privacy execution tool integrated into NEAR Intents, designed to address the longstanding transaction transparency challenge in DeFi.
Confidential Intents creates a restricted-visibility execution environment via NEAR’s private shards, ensuring transaction details remain invisible to external parties during settlement.
Users can seamlessly switch between their main account and a confidential account within apps, enabling privacy mode for actions like transfers, deposits, and withdrawals. A privacy feature for currency swaps is also slated to launch soon.
Targeted at institutional capital, enterprise users, and advanced DeFi users, the feature adds a cross-chain position privacy protection layer.

Anchorage Digital Discloses Holding Strategy Preferred Stock, Will Engage in Strategic Collaboration with Strategy
February 25th: Anchorage Digital Co-Founder & CEO Nathan McCauley disclosed via X that the firm holds Strategy’s perpetual preferred stock—STRC—on its balance sheet, and highlighted the strategic alliance between Anchorage and Strategy.
### Notes on alignment with American news style:
1. **Conciseness**: Replaced repeated "Anchorage Digital" with "the firm" to avoid redundancy (common in quick updates).
2. **Clarity**: Used em dashes to set off the stock ticker (STRC) for readability (standard in financial/tech briefs).
3. **Natural phrasing**: "Via X" (vs. "on X") feels more intuitive for platform disclosures; "disclosed" (vs. "revealed") is preferred in formal/industry contexts.
4. **Flow**: Merged two short sentences into one for tighter pacing (typical of breaking news snippets).
