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.

February 25th — According to Coinbob Popular Address Monitoring, an address starting with 0x535 opened a 20x leveraged long position on the SILVER (Silver Mapping Contract) at 8 a.m. today, **ahead of a sharp intraday silver price rally**. The entry price was around $87. Via subsequent position rolls, the address boosted its position size to $4.08 million, making it the largest SILVER long position on the Hyperliquid platform as of now. Due to gradual rolling, the average entry price rose to $88, with current unrealized returns standing at 36%. Over the past week, the same address sustained consecutive losses on long positions in silver, HYPE, ZEC, and other assets, accumulating a weekly loss of $1.41 million. Today, it successfully capitalized on silver’s intraday rally for the first time, finally locking in a floating profit.

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).
