NEAR has consistently followed the market trend since the start of the year. The market data shows the token is up nearly 30% bi-weekly. This is evidence that investors are still hyped by the recent growth featured within the broader market and the recent developments on the NEAR Protocol.
Account Aggregation: What’s The Gist?
NEAR is continuing its mission to be the one-all-be-all for entry-level and professional entities within Web 3. Account aggregation, or the consolidation of Web 3 and crypto accounts into one NEAR account, is their current focus.
Account aggregation is, according to their most recent , a “critical pillar of advancing Chain Abstraction.”
It essentially groups every single account you have across the crypto world into a single access point: your NEAR Protocol account. The technology is still in development, but it seems to incite excitement in investors.

“abstracting away different blockchains for a seamless Web3 experience has benefits beyond simply improving UX. It can potentially also reduce the liquidity fragmentation and tribalism associated with a fragmented crypto economy built around disparate, siloed blockchains.”

In simple terms, NEAR’s recent development can unite the fragmented Web 3 space, onboarding new users and bringing new growth to the crypto world.
NEAR Approaching A Possible Ceiling
In its current situation, NEAR is following Bitcoin very closely in its price changes. Investors should then be careful of possible pitfalls within Bitcoin’s bullish market that may affect NEAR’s ability to climb.
If bearishness does take over the market, investors can rely on the $2.8 price level to slow down any bearish attempt in the short to medium term. However, investors and traders should try and consolidate on this line if NEAR follows any downward pressure from the broader market.
