A lot of people are now becoming very bullish on $NEAR and honestly, I understand why 👀
Yes, the project is strong. AI narrative, Web3 ecosystem, fast blockchain, ETF talks… all of that is bullish long term. And let’s be honest, $NEAR already proved before that it can reach crazy levels after touching almost $20 in the previous cycle.
But right now, I still think people are becoming too greedy too early.
Personally, I believe there is still a liquidity gap below that the market may want to fill first before the next real move higher starts. Markets need liquidity like fuel, and usually, late buyers get trapped before the bigger breakout happens.
That’s also why I’m being careful with opening shorts too early because funding rates are already getting deeply negative, which means too many traders are already bearish.
For me, the realistic scenario right now is: short-term volatility first… then the bigger trend decision later.
Long term, I still think NEAR has huge potential if altseason returns properly
