Over the last 12 months NEAR returned +76.62% and GRAM -40.81%. Over just the last month the picture is the same: NEAR +169.78%, GRAM +20.15%. Short periods can tell a very different story from long ones, which is why picking a coin from last month's chart rarely works.
NEAR Protocol moves about ±2.7% on a typical day against ±1.6% for Gram (prev. Toncoin). In the past year NEAR fell as much as 69% from a peak and GRAM 57%. Bigger swings mean bigger possible gains and bigger possible losses, size your position so a fall like that wouldn't force you to sell.
The correlation of their daily moves over the past year is 0.18 (1 = always together, 0 = unrelated): they move fairly independently. That makes holding both a little less risky than holding either alone.
NEAR Protocol is the bigger network, with a market cap about 1.4× that of Gram (prev. Toncoin). A lower price per coin doesn't make a coin “cheaper”: what matters is market cap, and how many new coins will still be created (NEAR: no fixed cap; GRAM: no fixed cap).
Both trade on FIU-registered exchanges. Profit on either is taxed at 30% plus 4% cess, 1% TDS is deducted when you sell, and a loss on one can't be set off against a gain on the other. Guides: how to buy NEAR Protocol · how to buy Gram (prev. Toncoin) · best crypto apps in India.
