NEAR SURGES 26% — PRICE BRIEFLY HITS $3.45
NEAR Protocol’s NEAR token is making a strong move, briefly reaching $3.45 on September 18, with the price up more than 26% over 24 hours.
The rally follows growing attention around NEAR Intents’ confidential trading features and a newly triggered incentive program linked to the $3.33 price level.
Why is NEAR moving?
One major catalyst is NEAR’s confidential transaction initiative.
According to reports, locked assets in NEAR Intents’ Confidential Mode surpassed $70 million, triggering the first snapshot for the NEAR@$3.33 incentive program. Eligible users can receive milestone tokens, but conversion into NEAR depends on NEAR maintaining a 3-day volume-weighted average price of at least $3.33.
NEAR Intents itself describes its platform as a cross-chain liquidity protocol supporting swaps, unified liquidity and confidential transactions.
Key numbers
• NEAR briefly reached $3.45
• +26%+ reported 24-hour move
• Confidential Mode locked assets: >$70M
• Incentive conversion threshold: $3.33 3-day VWAP
• NEAR Intents reportedly generated about $5.01M in fees over the past 30 days, according to TechFlow’s analysis.
What traders are watching
The $3.33 area is now an important level because it is directly connected to the incentive mechanism.
A sustained move above the recent high could keep momentum elevated, while a rejection around these levels could lead to a pullback after the sharp rally.
The key question is whether NEAR can maintain its momentum through real usage and liquidity growth, rather than short-term speculation alone.
NEAR is back in focus. Is this rally being driven more by product adoption or market momentum?
