How to use AI services without paying for them
This is one of the most unusual monetisation models I’ve seen
In short, you stake your Near tokens, but instead of the usual rewards in the form of coins, you receive AI credits to pay for services. Your Near tokens remain yours, and you can withdraw them if you wish
The minimum amount for staking is 50
$NEAR. So if you hold this token, it’s worth considering this option
There are many providers available, including
@OpenAI, Google and Anthropic
This is a clear example of how a token is being used in a completely new way, with a focus on AI infrastructure
And now for my results for the month
Current price: $1.6
My average price: $1.51
Return over the last month: 4.66% APY
Withdrawal time from staking: 3 days
Staking location: Near Wallet
Work on the project continues apace, and every month sees consistent progress – not always major, but always significant.
@NEARProtocol is on its way to becoming not just a Layer 1 with a suite of DeFi applications, but a vast ecosystem offering a wide variety of possibilities, primarily in the field of AI. Pot, boil!
