Why NEAR Protocol is down 1.6% in the last hour

Analysis

NEAR fell 1.6% over the past hour as broader crypto risk appetite softened following macro-focused market news. CoinDesk reported that Strategy cut net leverage to near zero as its cash position nearly matches its convertible debt, a development that can shift near-term sentiment toward balance-sheet and funding conditions rather than higher-beta altcoins like NEAR.
