NEAR Surges 25%, Reaches Highest Price in 20 Months Amid Perpetual Futures Trading Debut
NEAR ( Live) has surged to its highest price in 20 months, reaching about $3.60 after exploding by 25% in a day.
The broader cryptocurrency market is also experiencing a revival, but NEAR's rally is not solely due to this trend.
A recent development that may have contributed to the asset's performance is the introduction of perpetual futures trading on NEAR Protocol, powered by Hyperliquid.
Several analysts have praised NEAR's chart, with Michael van de Poppe describing it as 'absolutely phenomenal' and predicting a short-term top near $5.
