Cross-chain swaps just got smarter — now with NEAR.
We’re excited to announce the SwapKit NEAR integration via NEAR Intents, enabling developers, wallets, and dApps to seamlessly offer swaps into and out of the NEAR blockchain.
This follows our earlier rollout of NEAR Intents as a liquidity and routing provider, which introduced intent-based execution and gas abstraction to SwapKit integrators. With today’s chain integration, NEAR moves from being just an execution layer to a fully supported blockchain within the SwapKit ecosystem.
What This Means for Integrators
By enabling the SwapKit NEAR integration, developers can now:
✅ Access NEAR-native liquidity — swap directly into NEAR assets with competitive pricing.
✅ Route across ecosystems — bridge liquidity between Bitcoin, Ethereum, Solana, and NEAR in a single integration.
✅ Leverage account abstraction — simplify user flows with gas-abstracted swaps.
✅ Expand product coverage — meet growing demand from NEAR users across DeFi, wallets, and payments.
✅ Activate instantly — existing SwapKit integrators can turn on NEAR with minimal changes.
How It Works
- Integrators using SwapKit already have NEAR Intents routes available.
- With the SwapKit NEAR integration, they can now directly support NEAR as a source or destination chain.
- End-users can swap BTC, ETH, SOL, XRP, TRX, and more directly to NEAR assets.
Why NEAR Matters
NEAR Protocol has rapidly grown into one of the most efficient and developer-friendly L1 blockchains, with:
- Low fees and instant finality via its sharded architecture.
- Account abstraction at the protocol level, simplifying UX for developers and users.
- Expanding ecosystem adoption, from DeFi apps to mainstream onboarding.
By powering the SwapKit NEAR integration, SwapKit ensures integrators and their users can access the broadest liquidity coverage, lowest-cost routing, and frictionless UX across the multichain landscape.
The Cross-Chain Future with SwapKit
The addition of NEAR as a chain continues SwapKit’s mission to make cross-chain swaps as seamless as same-chain transfers.
- More chains.
- More liquidity providers.
- Smarter routing.
- Simpler integration.
The SwapKit NEAR integration is another step in building the plug-and-play cross-chain engine powering the decentralized economy.
About SwapKit
SwapKit develops technologies and operates services enabling non-custodial, permissionless cross-chain trading for wallets, dApps, and crypto platforms. Through its API and SDK, SwapKit enables seamless swaps across multiple chains – including Bitcoin — to let users trade native assets in a single transaction without handling the underlying complexity.
SwapKit integrators benefit from a unified API to get access to multiple providers, abstracting away integration complexities. Integrators can monetize their SwapKit integration using tailor-made tools to easily configure and collect swap fees. SwapKit supports address AML checks, transaction status tracking, and multi-chain wallet interaction. With fully open-source smart contracts and a continuously expanding chain / asset coverage, SwapKit empowers projects to embed composable cross-chain DeFi capabilities efficiently.re — powered by liquidity from providers such as NEAR Intents, THORChain, Chainflip, and Maya Protocol.
