MyNearWallet sets an October 31, 2026 deadline

MyNearWallet is a web-based, noncustodial wallet for the NEAR Protocol network, meaning it provides an interface for accessing assets rather than holding them for users. The service is scheduled to end on October 31, 2026, according to TokenPost. Migration guidance calls for testing a small transfer first, moving assets one at a time and keeping recovery information until balances arrive in the new account. The new access route supports activity across more than 30 chains, according to PANews.

The wallet change is separate from the status of tokens, nonfungible tokens and staking positions recorded on-chain. PANews reported that NEAR users need a different access method after the service ends, while the underlying on-chain records remain in place.

NEAR Intents exceeded 32 billion USD in Q3

In a Q3 update published on October 19, 2026, NEAR Protocol said cumulative NEAR Intents volume surpassed 32 billion USD and cumulative fees exceeded 52 million USD. The update said more than 8 million USD had been captured for buybacks, with the figures measured as of October 6, 2026. NEAR Intents is a cross-chain system that lets users specify an outcome while other participants handle transaction execution.

A separate fee measure shows a mixed operating picture. TokenPost reported that lifetime fee capture reached 16.4 percent by October 6, 2026, up from 11.5 percent in the second-quarter comparison, while the recent 30-day rate was 28.4 percent versus 30.5 percent in the earlier comparison.
