NEAR Protocol climbed 10.34% on September 30, 2026, bringing its price to $5.26 and continuing a sustained stretch of upward momentum that has defined the asset's recent trading activity.
Over the past seven days, NEAR has gained 15.06%, while its 30-day performance stands at an exceptional 183.02%, reflecting a dramatic shift in market sentiment toward the layer-one blockchain token over the past month.
The rally has lifted NEAR Protocol's total market capitalization to $6.37 billion, solidifying its position as a notable player in the broader cryptocurrency market by that measure.
Tuesday's move built on gains already recorded earlier in the week, with the token's price action suggesting sustained buying interest across multiple timeframes rather than a single-session spike.
