NEAR jumps nearly 80% in a week as Intents volume nears $30B

The pairing of a sharp token move with a cumulative volume milestone is the notable part: it frames Intents as an activity story rather than pure speculation, with privacy features and Zcash-linked swaps giving the rally a narrative beyond price. That matters for NEAR's positioning against other intent- and privacy-focused networks, since traders now have a concrete usage figure to weigh against the token's rapid repricing. The open question is whether that volume reflects durable, repeat flow or a short-lived burst around privacy demand — and whether Intents activity keeps compounding independently of the token's move.
