NEAR Enters Bitwise Large-Cap Indexes in October Rebalance
Bitwise’s October 30 rebalance brings NEAR into several indexes, replacing UNI or AVAX depending on the benchmark. Index membership alone does not establish a guaranteed price effect.

Dextape brief
Bitwise has scheduled an October 30 rebalance that adds NEAR to several large-cap indexes, announced October 22. NEAR takes the place of UNI in the Bitwise 10 Large Cap Crypto Index and its ex-Bitcoin version, and replaces AVAX in the Bitwise 10 Select Large Cap Crypto Index. Separately, LIT is set to enter the decentralized-finance index in place of ETHFI, while the BTC/ETH Equal Weight index has no change this cycle. The article notes these are constituent decisions that do not disclose execution prices, fund asset values or whether every Bitwise-branded product has bought the tokens. Any market effect would depend on capital following each index and how managers execute trades.
Why it matters: It shows how specific benchmark rules determine which tokens investors tracking rules-based crypto exposure actually hold, so reading each named index matters.
