What has moved the market

NEAR: Security incident in NEAR Intents with fund recovery (CoinBird).

Near Protocol (NEAR) falls 5,57%

Near Protocol drops from €4,43 to €4,18 in 24 hours.

  • NEAR Intents suffered an exploit worth approximately $3,8 million, which led to a temporary suspension of services. Coverage published on October 2 explicitly stated that the news generated selling pressure and a significant drop in NEAR's price. Services were subsequently restored, but the security incident was identified as the catalyst for the price drop.
  • NEAR Intents suffered an exploit of approximately 3,8 million USDT between September 30 and October 1, and although the funds were recovered and the service resumed, the incident introduced a reputational and operational risk directly linked to the NEAR ecosystem.
