NEAR Intents Spark Analyst Frenzy: The Breakout Catalyst We’ve Been Waiting For
NEAR Protocol's Intent-Centric Architecture Ignites Market Optimism
The Sleeping Giant Awakens
Market analysts are buzzing about NEAR's intent-based infrastructure as the potential trigger for that elusive price explosion. After months of sideways action, the protocol's innovative approach to user transactions has traders positioning for what could be the next major crypto narrative.Intent-Driven Revolution
NEAR's system cuts through traditional blockchain complexity—bypassing manual transaction setups and letting users declare desired outcomes instead. The architecture automatically routes for optimal execution, slashing gas fees and eliminating failed transactions that plague competing networks.Institutional Eyes on Deck
Major funds are reportedly accumulating positions, betting that NEAR's practical utility will finally translate into market momentum. The timing aligns perfectly with growing institutional fatigue toward overhyped projects with zero real-world applications—because nothing says 'serious investment' like technology that actually works.The Verdict
While crypto markets remain notoriously unpredictable, NEAR's technical foundation combined with growing developer adoption suggests this could be more than just another temporary pump. Sometimes the best trades emerge when solid technology finally catches Wall Street's attention—even if they're late to the party as usual.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.
