NEAR’s Revenue Beat 2025 in 4 Months. Is It Crypto’s Top AI Value Play?
As a researcher tracking NEAR Protocol, I’ve noticed a significant disconnect between its on-chain revenue and its price action. Analyst Michael van de Poppe’s data shows that NEAR generated $15.6 million in revenue in the first four months of 2026 – already exceeding the total $10 million earned throughout all of 2025. If this rate continues, we could see full-year revenue for 2026 reach $40 to $60 million, representing a massive 400-500% jump. It’s unusual to see revenue accelerating while the price declines, and this suggests that either the revenue figures or the price trend isn’t accurately reflecting NEAR’s future direction.
