NEAR Protocol NEAR

NEAR has moved -6.11% in the last day, -19.00% over the week, and +27.25% over the past month. The all-time high of $20.44 was set 1602 days ago, leaving NEAR at 9.1% of that peak. Reclaiming the record would require a 999% advance from here. The weekly and monthly trends are pulling in opposite directions, a hallmark of a market in transition.

Volatility & risk

Realised volatility for NEAR is currently very high, with a 7-day annualised reading near 195%. That places it among the most volatile names in the top 100 (more volatile than 90% of peers), so position sizing matters. Traders should expect double-digit percentage swings within a single week to be normal rather than exceptional.

Liquidity & trading depth

Over the last 24 hours roughly $448.57M changed hands, equal to about 18.6% of the circulating market value turning over in a day. That is healthy turnover — orders can generally be filled with limited slippage and the market is actively traded. Liquidity health scores 75/100 on our composite, which blends 24-hour volume against market capitalisation.

Correlation with Bitcoin & markets

Over the past week, NEAR's hourly returns show a correlation of -0.07 with Bitcoin. That is an inverse relationship over the window — NEAR has tended to zig when Bitcoin zags, a rare and potentially useful hedge. Correlation regimes shift, so this figure is a snapshot rather than a constant.

On-chain value & TVL

The DeFi ecosystem built on or powered by NEAR Protocol currently secures roughly $140.06M in total value locked (TVL) — the dollar value of assets deposited in its protocols. Against a market capitalisation of $2.41B, that gives a market-cap-to-TVL ratio of 17.21. A high ratio means the market values NEAR well above the capital currently locked in its ecosystem — pricing in future growth that on-chain activity has yet to deliver. TVL is a useful gauge of real economic usage, but it rises and falls with token prices, so read it alongside the trend in deposits rather than the dollar figure alone.

Our outlook blends three independent lenses. The technical model reads momentum as neutral and frames a near-term band of $1.67 to $2.08. The statistical model, driven by realised volatility, centres near $2.01 with a one-horizon spread of $0.1860 to $5.84. The relative model, anchored to how comparable top-100 assets have performed (median -0.50% over the past week), points to $1.71 to $2.04. Blending the three yields the horizon-by-horizon ensemble in the table below. Model confidence is High, reflecting data completeness and liquidity. These are probabilistic scenarios generated from market data — not guarantees, and not financial advice.

NEAR Protocol has a circulating supply of 1,297,520,739 NEAR. There is no fixed hard cap; total supply currently stands near 1,297,520,752 tokens. Without a ceiling, long-run scarcity depends on the protocol's issuance and any burn mechanics. Fully diluted valuation and circulating market cap can diverge sharply when a large share of tokens is still locked, so both are worth comparing before drawing conclusions about value.

NEAR Protocol (NEAR) is the 39th-ranked cryptocurrency tracked on TBN Express, with live pricing, derived risk metrics and a multi-model outlook refreshed throughout the day. The profile below combines project information with our own quantitative read of how NEAR is trading right now.

NEAR Protocol is the blockchain for AI. A high-performance, AI-native platform built to power the next generation of decentralized applications and intelligent agents. It provides the infrastructure AI needs to transact, operate, and interact across Web2 and Web3. NEAR combines three core elements: User-Owned AI, which ensures agents act in users’ best interests; Intents and Chain Abstraction, which eliminate blockchain complexity for seamless, goal-driven transactions across chains; and a sharded blockchain architecture that delivers the scalability, speed, and low-cost execution needed for real-world AI and Web3 use. This integrated stack makes NEAR the foundation for building secure, user-owned, AI-native applications at internet scale.
