NEAR Surges 5% Despite Volatile Trading as Grayscale Adds Token

NEAR Protocol posts 5% gains in the 24-hour period ending 9 July 15:00, closing at $2.27 despite heavy volatility. The rally coincides with Grayscale's quarterly rebalancing, positioning NEAR at 28.41% of its Decentralized AI Fund. The move comes amid renewed optimism across the altcoin sector, with analysts calling for a long-awaited "altcoin season," which would likely occur if bitcoin (BTC) breaks a new record high and consolidates, prompting a capital flow to altcoins.

Token swings $0.14 or 6.20% between $2.15 low and $2.29 peak. 17:00 hour sees 4.16 million unit surge, driving price from $2.18 to $2.23. Spike exceeds 24-hour average of 1.87 million units. Volume establishes resistance at $2.24, support at $2.21. $2.25 level holds through multiple resistance-support tests. Late buying pushes close toward session highs, signaling momentum continuation.
