Bitwise Asset Management announced the launch of the Bitwise NEAR ETF (Ticker: NRR) on NYSE Arca, calling it the first spot NEAR ETP in the U.S. with a management fee of 0.75%. The plan is to stake the fund's NEAR holdings through an in-house staking team, aiming for an average staking reward of about 5% (data as of September 25, 2026). Bitwise CIO Matt Hougan stated that NEAR sits at the intersection of two major trends: AI and crypto. Its NEAR Intents protocol has processed over $32 billion in transaction volume, compared to less than $1 billion a year ago.
