How to read it. Each cell is the percentage change from the previous period's last daily close to this period's last daily close, in UTC. Green closed higher, red lower; deeper colours are bigger moves. Italic cells cover part of a period: the listing month (14 Oct 2020) and the current month, quarter and year (so far, to 27 Sep 2026). Average and median rows count full periods only.

NEAR Protocol returns FAQ
How are NEAR Protocol's monthly returns calculated?
Each month's return is the last daily close of that month divided by the last daily close of the month before, minus one, in UTC; quarters and years work the same way. The first month in the table is measured from its first daily open. Prices are NEARUSDT daily candles on Binance spot, from 14 Oct 2020 on.
What do the average and median rows show?
For each calendar month, the average and the median return over every full year of data. The listing month and the current month are left out of both, because they cover only part of the month. The median is less sensitive to one extreme year than the average.
Why is the current month marked?
The current month, quarter and year are still running, so their returns are "so far": they use the latest daily close, which moves until the day ends at 00:00 UTC. They are shown in italics and not counted in any average, median, best or worst figure.
Are past returns a guide to future returns?
No. Seasonal patterns in crypto are weak and change from year to year; a month with a positive median has still had large losses. Use these tables for context next to funding rates, open interest and liquidations. Nothing here is financial advice.
