The launch of confidential perpetual contracts powered by Hyperliquid is being cited as the immediate catalyst behind NEARs sharp rally, with traders highlighting privacy for leveraged on-chain trading. The community is broadly bullish and pointing to NEARs AI, interoperability and privacy positioning, although some traders argue the move is mainly momentum, short covering or a liquidity-driven pump.
