Key PointsNEAR is positioning itself as a layer that expedites transactions across different networks.
On September 28, altcoin spot trading volumes surged to nearly four times that of Bitcoin, marking the highest ratio in the past year. This level of activity had not been seen since mid-September 2025, signaling the potential start of an alt season - a period of intense crypto market activity typically lasting a few months. During these seasons, numerous altcoins experience significant price surges, with a few becoming major players in the cryptocurrency landscape.
According to CryptoQuant, there were 78,000 altcoin deposits made to exchanges within a week of the September 28 spike. This surge in activity, combined with the influx of coins into exchanges, suggests that many investors may be anticipating a significant price increase in the near future. Three altcoins that have caught the attention of market observers are NEAR Protocol (CRYPTO: NEAR), Chainlink (CRYPTO: LINK), and Monero (CRYPTO: XMR).
