What has moved the market

Macroeconomic pressure from higher-than-expected US inflation and a fall in Asian stock markets were factors that the hedge linked to crypto sales. View source

NEAR, the biggest gainer, saw liquidations and forced sales during the day, with additional coverage on its cross-chain infrastructure and flows into the NEAR ETF (Ground News; CoinMarketCap AI).

Near Protocol (NEAR) It goes up 9,78%

Near Protocol drops from €4,34 to €4,77 in 24 hours.

  • Today's sources indicate primarily intraday selling pressure: a $2.64M sale by a whale and other liquidations on Binance, Bybit, and OKX. This pressure does not explain the 24-hour increase.
  • That same day, the coverage highlighted that NEAR was continuing to advance its cross-chain infrastructure geared towards commerce with AI agents, although it did not link it to the rise.
  • In addition, CoinMarketCap AI cited fresh inflows into the NEAR ETF on October 14, a piece of institutional support, although the relationship with the price jump on October 15 is indirect.

Hyperliquid (HYPE) It goes up 1,36%

Hyperliquid goes from €71,85 to €72,83 in 24 hours.

Possible factor, unconfirmed:

  • Ripple Prime has added perpetual swaps on real-world assets that reference perpetual futures listed by Trade.xyz on Hyperliquid, with over 100 reference markets and access for institutional clients. This signals greater institutional integration of Hyperliquid, although it doesn't explicitly link the announcement to HYPE's 1,36% rise.

Left (LEFT) It goes up 0,88%

Solana goes from €93,55 to €94,37 in 24 hours.

Possible factor, unconfirmed:
