What changed
Stake NEAR, receive rNEAR and retain flexibility across the NEAR DeFi ecosystem. This update is part of HOT Labs' work to make NEAR easier to use from one self-custody wallet.

What you can do with NEAR in HOT Wallet
- Use dApps on NEAR. Connect through HOT Connector to NEAR apps without switching wallets.
- Native staking for NEAR. Stake native NEAR or use RHEA liquid staking and receive rNEAR.
- Bridge major assets. Move NEAR, USDC, USDT, ETH, BTC and ZEC through supported Intents routes.
- Unlimited gas-free transactions. Use supported HOT flows without keeping a separate gas balance.
Integrated apps and infrastructure
The current NEAR experience connects wallet features with RHEA Finance, stNEAR, NEAR AI, NEAR Intents, Native Staking, HOT Craft, HOT Exchange, Gas-Free Transactions. Availability can vary by asset, region, route, and third-party protocol. Always review the final transaction details before confirming.
Why it matters
Users should not need to manually coordinate accounts, gas, apps, and cross-chain routes for every action. HOT Wallet brings those steps into one interface while users retain control of their accounts and approvals.
Get started
Open HOT Wallet, select NEAR, and choose the relevant wallet, staking, swap, bridge, or app flow. Confirm the network, asset, route, fees, and destination before signing.
