NEAR Intents, a cross-chain trading protocol, blocked $503,000 of stolen funds linked to the Bitget hack, which involved over $50 million in attempted transfers. NEAR co-founder Illia Polosukhin emphasized that permissionless blockchains don't require every app to process all transactions, defending their decision to halt suspicious trades. The blocking was enabled by SHIELD, a risk-intelligence system that detects and stops illicit fund flows. This contrasts with THORChain, which refused to block hacker wallets, sparking debate about security and neutrality in decentralized finance. Bitget's CEO thanked NEAR Intents, and the exchange's User Protection Fund covers the $387.5 million loss from the hack.
