$NEAR is betting big on multi-chain liquidity connectivity through $NEAR Intents. This new standard enables large-scale stablecoin transactions between Ethereum, Solana, Tron, Ton, and Layer-2s at extremely low costs.
$NEAR aims to improve capital efficiency and become the “unified liquidity layer” for all on-chain transactions. The question is: Can this strategic move be strong enough to push $NEAR’s price up after a long accumulation phase?
$NEAR Wants to Become the Liquidity Hub of Web3
According to the latest update from $NEAR Protocol, $NEAR Intents was introduced as a new standard for large-scale stablecoin transactions. It aims to enable stablecoin swaps of up to $1 million across different chains efficiently and securely.
“Today marks the next step – it’s now the best place to swap stablecoins in size, 1:1 with minimal fees.” $NEAR’s Co-Founder stated
Some analysts have described $NEAR Intents as a “cypherpunk liquidity engine” that could change how stablecoins operate across multiple chains.
In practice, if $NEAR Intents gains wide adoption, it could theoretically increase stablecoin volume, boost transaction fees, and create demand for the $NEAR token (if a proper fee capture mechanism is implemented).
However, real success depends on whether $NEAR can share this economic value with its native token. If not, most benefits will go to upper-layer applications instead of being reflected in the token price.
$NEAR Shows Signs of Long-term Accumulation Before A Breakout
The $NEAR ecosystem also shows positive recovery in terms of user activity and capital inflows. Data showed that $NEAR is among the blockchains with the highest monthly active users.
Moreover, Grayscale revealed that $NEAR is one of the largest holdings in its Grayscale Decentralized AI Fund, reflecting strong long-term institutional confidence.
From a technical perspective, many analysts believe $NEAR has been in an accumulation phase throughout 2025. Michaël van de Poppe states that the market could witness a strong breakout if the price breaks above the $3.25–$3.50 resistance range.

Meanwhile, another analyst pointed out that an “Inverse Head & Shoulders” pattern is forming on the daily chart.
“Break above the neckline (~$3.3) could confirm a bullish reversal. Technical target sits around $4.78 once breakout holds,” the analyst commented.
BeInCrypto recently reported that Near Protocol has surpassed Solana in daily active users, ranking second among Layer 1 blockchains. Analysts consider $NEAR undervalued, with a price target of $10.82, representing a potential upside of 315%.
However, data from BeInCrypto shows that $NEAR’s price is still down more than 37% year-over-year and 86% below its 2022 ATH, indicating that the market is still waiting for clear confirmation from liquidity and capital inflows.
