Why NEAR Protocol is up 5.4% today

Analysis

NEAR rose 5.4% over the past 24 hours amid a more bullish market narrative after Wintermute suggested the bull cycle is “just starting,” which likely supported risk-on positioning in majors and large-cap alts like NEAR (U.Today). Sentiment may also have been boosted by ecosystem activity news that quantum-proof network Quantus is debuting its QTC token on Near, highlighting fresh token launches and development on the chain (AMBCrypto).
