Why NEAR Protocol is up 1.3% in the last hour

Analysis

NEAR rose 1.3% over the past hour amid broader crypto market optimism after bullish “buy the dip” commentary from Arthur Hayes and Bitcoin commentator Davinci, which likely supported risk-on sentiment across altcoins (BeInCrypto, confidence: 58%). In parallel, attention on DEX activity—highlighted by Ethereum closing the gap with Solana as volumes converge near $45 billion—may have reinforced interest in smart-contract ecosystems more broadly, benefiting tokens like NEAR (The Block).
