Notably, the Cypherpunk Guild is now qualified to not only stake, invest, and grant $NEAR and other forms of value that it receives or obtains, but it is also now eligible to receive donations from other organizations and individuals.

With privacy concerns emerging as a hot-button issue for many people around the world, the Cypherpunk Guild is launching at a time when leadership, support, and product development of privacy-minded decentralized applications are highly necessary.

In the near-term future, the Cypherpunk Guild will expand across the multiple facets of the rapidly decentralizing NEAR Ecosystem, building privacy focused solutions for base-layer infrastructure, payment processing, and even Decentralized Finance (DeFi). In the long-term, the Cypherpunk Guild intends to expand into the larger Crypto-verse, as a well supported vehicle for the development and dissemination of Cypherpunk values.

The Cypherpunk Guild is continuing the Cypherpunk tradition today by incubating a next-generation of privacy solutions on the Open Web.

With a host of new services and products already being built on NEAR Protocol (and many more planned), the Cypherpunk Association will be reaching out to a suite of partners and organizations in the coming months to expand both its impact and brand.
