Santiment data shows Chainlink surpassed $29 for the first time in 37 months, driven by further accumulation by whales and sharks.
Large wallets holding more than 100,000 LINK have added 5.69 million LINK in two months, while smaller wallets (<100,000 LINK) have sold 5.67 million LINK. Historically, such accumulation by large wallets often signals significant market capitalization growth. However, Chainlink's success remains tied to Bitcoin‘s stability, and long-term holders are likely to benefit if conditions remain favorable.
