NEAR Price Prediction: Can NEAR Reclaim $3.50 or Is a Deeper Drop Coming?

NEAR price prediction for November 17 stays bearish below $3.50, the level NEAR needs to reclaim after sliding about 43% from its early-October high.

NEAR Price Analysis: Can NEAR Climb Back to $3.50?

NEAR trades at $3.39, with $3.50 the first level buyers need to recover. Price remains below the 100-day EMA at $3.63, the 20-day at $3.87, and the 50-day at $4.03. However, it still holds above the 200-day EMA near $3.02, which offers support alongside the $3.00 level.

The token has followed a falling channel since reaching nearly $6 in early October. Its upper boundary now sits around $3.95, while the lower edge runs near $2.70. The Parabolic SAR remains above price at $3.79, adding to signs that sellers still control the short-term trend.

For November 17, the setup favors trading between $3.02 and $3.50 unless buying strengthens. A daily close above $3.50 would bring $3.63 into focus, while a break below $3.00 could extend losses toward $2.70.

NEAR Support and Resistance Levels, November 17, 2026

US NEAR ETF Has Had No Inflow Since October 26

The US spot NEAR ETF has not taken in any money since October 26 and has lost $10.58M over four outflow days since October 27, including $1.36M on November 11. Bitwise’s NRR is the only fund in SoSoValue’s NEAR table. 

Weekly inflows shrank from $58.35M in the week ending October 2 to $5.22M in the week ending October 23, then turned negative for three straight weeks.

Total net assets fell to $54.10M from $80.05M on October 26, a drop of about 32%. The outflows explain only about 41% of that fall, so more than half came from the price.

Intents Buybacks Near Last Quarter’s Total

As per DefiLlama, revenue from NEAR Intents, NEAR’s swap product, has funded about $2.7M of NEAR buybacks so far this quarter, against $3.07M for all of Q3. Intents has kept $2.82M of the $8.68M in fees it collected since October 1, and swap volume reached $3.76B over 30 days, taking the total since launch to $37.3B. The tokens are bought on the open market, and none are burned.

About 43 days into the quarter, that pace points to roughly $5.8M for Q4, nearly double Q3. The buying is small next to the ETF’s selling, though, since $10.58M left the US fund in four sessions, about four times the quarter’s buybacks. 

NEAR AI Ships a Mac App and Reports a Server Breach

NEAR AI disclosed a server breach on November 9 that exposed account details for about 100 users. The attacker also accessed 18 older AI agents, while two customers’ API keys appeared in exposed logs and were revoked. Requests handled on November 8 may have been visible, including those using confidential mode.

The company said it fixed the flaw and found no evidence that stored chats or uploaded files were accessed. The breach affected NEAR AI’s servers, not the blockchain or token accounts.

Two days later, on November 11, NEAR AI launched Gateway, a Mac app connecting Claude Code, Codex, and OpenCode to its private models. The app tracks usage and costs, with an update following November 13. Neither announcement establishes a direct impact on NEAR’s price or token demand.

NEAR Price Prediction Scenarios for November 17

NEAR holds today’s low at $3.31, closes above $3.50, and reaches the 100-day average at $3.6324, about 7% above today’s price. A close above it would open the Parabolic SAR at $3.79, about 12% higher. A pause in ETF outflows and a steadier crypto market would fit this path.

NEAR closes below today’s low at $3.31 and reaches $3.02, about 11% below today’s price. A close below it and the $3.00 round level would put the lower channel line near $2.70 in play, about 20% lower. Another ETF outflow and fresh weakness across crypto would fit this path.

NEAR Price Prediction FAQs

NEAR stays bearish below $3.50 and could move toward the 100-day average at $3.6324 if it holds today’s low at $3.31 and closes above $3.50. A daily close below $3.00 would put the lower channel line near $2.70 in play.

NEAR is about 43% below its early-October high near $6.00 and trades below three of its four daily averages inside a falling channel. The US spot NEAR ETF has had no inflow since October 26, and NEAR AI reported a server breach on November 9, though none of the data ties the fall to a single cause.

Bitwise’s NRR, the only fund in SoSoValue’s NEAR table, has had no inflow since October 26 and lost $10.58M across four days since October 27. Its net assets stand at $54.10M.

$3.02, the 200-day average, beside the $3.00 round level, is the key support, with today’s low at $3.31 above it. A close below $3.00 would put $2.70 in play.
