Why NEAR Protocol is down 1.4% in the last hour
Analysis
NEAR Protocol (NEAR) slipped 1.4% over the past hour amid choppy, liquidation-driven trading conditions highlighted by a broader altcoin “squeeze.” U.Today reported that NEAR was among the leading tokens in a wave of liquidations as short sellers lost $666 million in 24 hours, and that kind of forced-position unwind can amplify short-term volatility and quick pullbacks even after squeeze activity.
