What happened
NEAR token sank 7% after a proposal to cut annual token issuance passed. The change would prevent 11.8 million NEAR from entering circulation over two years, worth about $45 million at today’s price.
Why it matters
The direct effect on India is likely small because this is a crypto token event, not a macro policy move. It could still affect sentiment in Indian crypto trading and in broader risk assets if traders treat it as a sign of tighter token supply.
Global impact
In global crypto markets, a passed issuance cut can support the idea of tighter supply, but the headline reaction here was a drop in NEAR. Such moves usually stay mostly within crypto and only spill into Indian markets through sentiment and trading activity.
