NEAR Protocol
Why NEAR Protocol is down 1.1% in the last hour
Analysis
NEAR slipped 1.1% over the past hour as the broader crypto market traded cautiously with Bitcoin consolidating near $65,000, limiting upside momentum for altcoins. CoinDesk noted that ETF-flow-driven positioning kept attention on BTC rather than sparking a broad risk-on move, which likely weighed on smaller tokens like NEAR in the short term.
