Key takeaways

  • NEAR is up by less than 1% and is approaching $1.5.
  • The positive performance comes despite the broader crypto market underperforming.

NEAR Intents integrates with Starknet

NEAR, the native coin of the Near Protocol, is trading at $1.48 per coin, up by less than 1% in the last 24 hours. Its positive performance comes despite the massive selloff in the broader cryptocurrency market. 

The coin bucked the trend thanks to Near Protocol’s NEAR Intents platform integration with Starknet, a ZK execution layer scaling Ethereum on Thursday. The integration effectively brings chain-abstracted, intent-based swaps into the ecosystem. 

It also allows users to seamlessly transition between Starknet and the broader cryptocurrency space without having to bridge or go through a complex multi-step process.

NEAR Intents is built on the NEAR layer-1 blockchain, allowing users to swap assets from approximately 25 supported blockchains directly into Starknet. Furthermore, users can also purchase Starknet (STRK) using over 100 tokens, including Bitcoin (BTC), Ethereum (ETH), Solana (SOL), and more.

NEAR eyes $1.6 despite bearish market conditions

The NEAR/USD 4-hour chart is bearish and efficient as the coin has added roughly 1% to its value over the last 24 hours. At press time, NEAR is trading at $1.48 and could rally higher in the near term.

The Relative Strength Index (RSI) has increased to 36 on the 4-hour chart, confirming a short-term momentum. However, if the RSI remains within the bearish region, NEAR cannot sustain a rally towards the major resistance level at $1.80.

The Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) indicator is still bearish but could flash a buy signal once the upward trend continues. This signal manifests with the blue MACD line crossing above the red signal line, encouraging traders to increase their exposure in this market. 

However, if the recovery fails, NEAR could retest the $1.45 support level over the next few hours.

Pictures Key Facts “One Battle After Another” boasts a nearly perfect 97 out of a possible 100 on Metacritic based on its first 31 reviews, making it the highest-rated movie of this decade on Metacritic’s best movies of all time list. The movie also has a 96% score on Rotten Tomatoes based on the first 56 reviews, with only two reviews considered “rotten,” or negative. The Associated Press hailed the movie as “an American masterpiece,” noting the movie touches on topical political themes and depicts a society where “gun violence, white power and immigrant deportations recur in an ongoing dance, both farcical and tragic.” The movie stars DiCaprio as an ex-revolutionary who reunites with former accomplices to rescue his 16-year-old daughter when she goes missing, and Anderson has said the movie was inspired by the 1990 novel, “Vineland.” Most critics have described the movie as an action thriller with notable chase scenes, which jumps in time from DiCaprio’s character’s early days with fictional revolutionary group, the French 75, to about 15 years later, when he is pursued by foe and military leader Captain Steven Lockjaw, played by Sean Penn. The Warner Bros.-produced film was made on a big budget, estimated to be between $130 million and $175 million, and co-stars Penn, Benicio del Toro, Regina Hall and Teyana Taylor.

Economic policies are chasing investors away from US – Mercer

Economic policies are chasing investors away from US – Mercer

The post Economic policies are chasing investors away from US – Mercer appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. A wave of clients are shifting away from U.S. assets as investors react to President Donald Trump’s trade and interest-rate agenda, according to Mercer LLC. The consulting firm says concern over tariffs, pressure on the Federal Reserve, a swelling budget deficit and the risk of a softer dollar are pushing money to Europe, Japan and other markets. Hooman Kaveh, Mercer’s global chief investment officer, said a rising share of the firm’s 3,900 clients, together overseeing about $17 trillion, are reducing U.S. exposure. The opening weeks in the early phase of Trump’s second term “has been a trigger for genuine diversification,” he noted in an interview this week. “We’re certainly seeing that in client portfolios where flows are toward diversifying markets, geographies, asset classes, currencies.” Market nerves were evident in early April after Trump’s “Liberation Day” announcement, when both U.S. stocks and Treasuries fell before rebounding. Even so, U.S. shares have trailed many overseas benchmarks in 2025 for dollar-based investors. Kaveh said investors are struggling to price the tariff path because the effects can cut two ways: either squeeze company margins or get passed through to consumers and lift inflation. “If you have a situation where tariffs are going to push prices up, and the weaker dollar potentially can increase inflation, that would cause the Fed much more of a challenge to cut rates,” he added. As mentione in a Bloomberg report, he called the White House’s preference for a weaker dollar “the Achilles heel to the current approach” since it can magnify the inflation impulse from tariffs. Where the money is going Trump’s repeated criticism of Chair Jerome Powell, saying he has been slow to lower borrowing costs, along with the president’s move to fire Governor Lisa Cook, is further encouraging clients to step back from the U.S., according to…
