NEAR's token price surged 15.87% to $5.27 following the launch of a new confidential Solana (SOL) vault on near.com, which allows deposits without revealing wallet addresses. The vault, managed by Kamino Finance and curated by Gauntlet, offers a lending yield of around 5.12%, derived from borrowing demand rather than staking rewards. While the product enhances privacy by hiding the originating wallet on NEAR's blockchain shard, transactions remain visible on Solana's blockchain. Regulatory considerations in the EU highlight that the yield is taxable income and that providers must comply with anti-money laundering rules, potentially limiting access through licensed exchanges. The price jump is also influenced by futures market dynamics, with leveraged buyers paying funding rates. Investors should verify provider authorization and understand the risks before participating.
