# Bitwise NEAR ETF Records $9 Million in Inflows on Third Trading Day

> Editorial content, written by CryptoResearch.

The Bitwise NEAR ETF saw $9 million in net inflows on its third day of trading, continuing a streak of positive momentum since its debut on NYSE Arca.

The Bitwise NEAR ETF, trading under the ticker NRR, attracted approximately $9 million in net inflows on October 1, according to preliminary reports. This marks the third consecutive day of inflows for the fund since it began trading on NYSE Arca on September 29, 2026.

The fund's debut session saw $35.5 million in net inflows, with trading volume hitting $15.1 million. By the end of that first day, assets under management reached $36 million. On its second day, September 30, the fund added another $13.2 million in net inflows, pushing assets under management to $52.8 million as trading volume climbed to $20.1 million.

Bitwise has structured the fund to stake nearly all of its NEAR holdings internally. The firm is targeting an average staking reward of approximately 5% after expenses, though this remains a target rather than a guarantee. The fund carries an annual management fee of 0.75%.

The launch of the ETF followed a period of price appreciation for the underlying token, which rallied about 160% in the month leading up to the fund's debut. Much of this momentum was attributed to activity within NEAR’s cross-chain infrastructure, known as Intents, which had processed over $32 billion in cumulative volume prior to the ETF launch.

At the time of the fund's debut, the market capitalization of NEAR exceeded $6 billion. The token has a fully unlocked supply, and its inflation rate has been reduced to 2.5%. Because staking rewards are partially derived from new token issuance, the 2.5% inflation rate makes the 5% target for staking rewards a figure for market participants to monitor.
