NEAR showed resilience on Thursday with strong recovery from $2.42 support level, despite chaos in global markets.
Jun 6, 2025, 9:40 a.m.
Global markets are navigating heightened uncertainty following a public spat between U.S. President Donald Trump and Tesla CEO Elon Musk.
NEAR Protocol has demonstrated resilience amid this volatility, recovering from a sharp 5.2% decline to establish support at $2.42.
The recent price action shows promising signs of accumulation, with increasing volume on the second test of support forming a potential double bottom pattern on short time frames.
This technical structure, combined with the successful break above the $2.46-$2.47 resistance zone, suggests buyers are regaining control despite broader market turbulence.
NEAR's recovery may indicate growing institutional confidence in blockchain infrastructure projects with real-world utility.
