Bitcoin continues to trade above the $37,000 threshold, and since our previous analysis, there have been no major changes in its chart. Here's a review of the market situation for Internet Computer (ICP) and Near Protocol (NEAR) as of Friday, November 24.
Internet Computer (ICP)
Contrary to other altcoins, ICP has shown a relatively muted response to the BTC rise. Although the asset has appreciated by 70% since October 15, it has not yet reached a new annual high, and the ICP growth rate remains somewhat sluggish.
Currently, the asset is trading between a support zone of $3.94-$4.18 and a resistance level of $4.64-$4.96. If BTC continues its sideways trend above $37,000 or maintains its upward movement, ICP might follow a similar trajectory. The next target for buyers could be the psychological level of $5, with an additional notable level at $5.42 just above.
In the event of a correction, ICP could retest its current buyer's zone, as well as potentially drop to the level of $3.78 and into the range of $3.5-$3.7.

Near Protocol (NEAR)
While NEAR's price has surged by 120% over the past month, its growth has recently decelerated. The asset is trading in a support zone ranging from $1.70 to $1.83, and buyers appear hesitant to push the asset beyond this range.
Should NEAR continue its upward trajectory amid Bitcoin's positive trend, the token might test the $1.95 mark and encounter resistance in the $2.05-$2.19 zone. Bulls are prioritizing breaking past these local highs. If successful, NEAR might then tackle resistance levels at $2.3 and $2.4.
Beneath its current support zone, NEAR has a potential buyer's level at $1.65 and another zone between $1.46 and $1.55. These levels could be tested even without a Bitcoin market correction, particularly if buyers lack the momentum to drive up prices from their current positions.
