The NEAR Protocol is designed for applications that require high scalability and low transaction fees, such as decentralized applications (dApps) and decentralized finance (DeFi) applications. Furthermore, it is home to 750 active projects and 125 decentralized autonomous organizations (DAOs).
The NEAR ecosystem saw considerable growth as the count of its total accounts, monthly active wallets, transactions, active developers, and projects spiked in the last year.

NEAR zero
While the NEAR blockchain saw some ecosystem growth in the last week, its native coin NEAR saw no spike in its value. Per data from CoinMarketCap, NEAR traded at $1.40 at press time. Moreover, in the last week, NEAR's price fell by 17%.
With a consistent decline in On-Balance Volume (OBV) over the last week, sellers had control of the NEAR market at press time.
At the time of writing, the 20 Exponential Moving Average (EMA) was positioned below the 50 EMA (yellow) line. Lending credence to this position was NEAR's Directional Movement Index (DMI). NEAR's sellers' strength (red) at 36.48 rested above the buyers' (green) at 14.22.
The Average Directional Index (ADX) showed that buyers might find it difficult to revoke the sellers' strength in the short term.
