Join us live to review the conference and talk about what's coming for developers on NEAR

NEAR Foundation COO Chris Donovan is joined by Decentralized AI Society Chairman Michael Casey for a wide-ranging conversation on how AI will shape the coming decade.

The "fat protocol thesis" has given way to the "fat app thesis" with leading applications outpacing their host chains in fee revenue and, as with Uniswap, simply launching their own chains. In this context, chain abstraction becomes increasingly important. Can CA enhance liquidity for DeFi traders and ease onboarding…

So many apps, so many chains, so much token-fueled opportunism. How do you keep users engaged? How do you foster community over farming? From DeFi to decentralized AI, hear these pros discuss what it takes to build the fan bases that give crypto projects staying power.

Decentralized AI needs privacy, but how can it truly protect your data? Unlike centralized platforms, decentralized AI faces unique challenges.
