NEAR Protocol Rises 6.71% in Four Hours to $4.20, Despite a 24-Hour Loss

NEAR Protocol (NEAR) climbed 6.71% in four hours to $4.20 at 12:33 a.m. ET Friday, Oct. 30, even as it remained lower over 24 hours.

A direct spot-market check showed Binance's NEAR/USDT pair at $4.20 at 12:33 a.m. ET (04:33 UTC). Four hours earlier, the same pair was $3.93, making the move between those observations a 6.71% gain. NEAR was down 5.22% from its price 24 hours earlier, so the shorter-window rise came alongside a decline over the full day.

NEAR's market capitalization was approximately $5.47268 billion, ranking it 21st among crypto assets. A combined one-hour tally across Binance, Bybit and OKX recorded $20,000 in NEAR long liquidations and $100,000 in short liquidations. Short liquidations exceeded long liquidations by $80,000 in the hour. The liquidation tally covers a separate one-hour window for NEAR, distinct from the four-hour price comparison.
