I was just scrolling through the top gainers and came across $NEAR . This might be a bit of a buzzkill, but I’m not even sure whether this move is driven by NEAR itself or if it’s just getting pulled up by its neighbors.

There’s only one clue: Korean retail investors are pouring money into AI coins, and trading volume on WLD has piled up. The AI narrative is now outweighing everything else among Korean retail traders. NEAR already has an AI label, so when sentiment heats up, people naturally dig it up and take another bite. It’s not that NEAR has come up with some new story of its own—the tide’s rising, and the boat’s going up with it.

From the fours to just over five dollars, this price is already halfway up the hill. You can’t really call it expensive, but you can’t call it cheap either.

If you want to play it, keep your position small. Put “cut in half” and “go to zero” right at the top of your mind—don’t say I didn’t warn you. Even if I make a move, I’ll wait for a retest and confirmation. $NEAR
