What to know:

  • NEAR-USD experienced a notable downtrend over the last 24 hours from 30 June 15:00 to 1 July 14:00, declining from $2.14 to $2.09, representing a 2% decrease.
  • The price action revealed clear bearish momentum with the overall range spanning from the high of $2.19 to the low of $2.08, creating a volatility band of $0.11 (5%).
  • A significant support level has formed around $2.08-$2.10, confirmed by multiple bounces with above-average volume, particularly during the 7-hour session where price recovered from $2.08 despite heavy selling pressure.

AI-focused NEAR token is down by 2% on Tuesday to reflect broader altcoin market weakness and a negative response to a governance proposal by trading firm DWF Labs.

DWF proposed to cut NEAR's inflation from 5% to 2.5%. While this might have a bullish impact on prices in that tokens will be more scarce, network validators might switch to other networks if their rewards are slashed too much, creating a debate over a potential lack of decentralization.

  • The price action formed a clear upward channel with higher lows and higher highs, particularly accelerating between 13:25-13:33 when price broke above the $2.08 resistance and quickly established support at $2.09.
  • A notable volume spike occurred at 13:40-13:41, creating a brief pullback to $2.08 before buyers stepped in, pushing price to the session high of $2.10 by 14:05.

KuCoin Hits Record Market Share as 2025 Volumes Outpace Crypto Market

16:9 Image

KuCoin captured a record share of centralised exchange volume in 2025, with more than $1.25tn traded as its volumes grew faster than the wider crypto market.

알아야 할 것:

  • KuCoin recorded over $1.25 trillion in total trading volume in 2025, equivalent to an average of roughly $114 billion per month, marking its strongest year on record.
  • This performance translated into an all-time high share of centralised exchange volume, as KuCoin’s activity expanded faster than aggregate CEX volumes, which slowed during periods of lower market volatility.
  • Spot and derivatives volumes were evenly split, each exceeding $500 billion for the year, signalling broad-based usage rather than reliance on a single product line.
  • Altcoins accounted for the majority of trading activity, reinforcing KuCoin’s role as a primary liquidity venue beyond BTC and ETH at a time when majors saw more muted turnover.
  • Even as overall crypto volumes softened mid-year, KuCoin maintained elevated baseline activity, indicating structurally higher user engagement rather than short-lived volume spikes.

  • The contracts pay out if volatility indices reach or exceed a preset level by Dec. 31, 2026, letting traders wager on the intensity of price swings rather than market direction.
  • Early trading implies roughly a one-in-three chance that bitcoin and ether volatility will nearly double from current levels.
