This Top Ethereum Rival Has More Than Doubled in Two Weeks. But Is It a Buy?
NEAR's focus on AI agents and its upcoming ETF are generating a lot of buzz.
Overview
NEAR (CRYPTO: NEAR), the native token of the NEAR Protocol, has more than doubled in value over the past two weeks. Let's see why this potential challenger for Ethereum (CRYPTO: ETH) is gaining so much attention -- and if it's still worth buying today.
NEAR, like Ethereum, is a Layer-1 blockchain built for decentralized applications (dApps) and AI-driven agent economies. Both blockchains use the proof-of-stake (PoS) consensus mechanism, which means their networks are secured by validators who stake (lock up) their tokens rather than by miners using energy-intensive hardware.
