Chainlink, with its price feeds and oracles, has made a name for itself in the space. Even so, despite the ecosystem taking huge steps from a technical standpoint, the question is – How is it performing from an investment point of view?<\/span><\/p>\n

What\u2019s new with Chainlink?<\/strong><\/h4>\n

The network has been integrating with multiple DeFi protocols and GameFi projects. As a result, its adoption rates have been skyrocketing. Yesterday, the network\u2019s VRF integrated<\/a> with the game Spark Era which helps in ensuring the fair and secure generation of random NFTs in-game. <\/span><\/p>\n

Before that, Bonded Finance integrated<\/a> the network\u2019s price feeds to support loans for altcoins. <\/span>In addition to these developments, Chainlink\u2019s CEO Sergey Nazarov, in an interview with Sibos, claimed<\/a>,<\/span><\/p>\n

“I think the big limiting factor is secure integration which is what we [Chainlink] spend a lot of time working on\u2026”<\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Ergo, as Chainlink aims to tackle these problems, it only makes sense for investors to jump on this bullish hype too, right? Except that right now is not the case.<\/span><\/p>\n

Why so?<\/strong><\/h4>\n

If you look at the performance from the investors\u2019 end, you\u2019ll observe that it has been rather weird. Despite the fact that there is hope that maybe, these network developments could fix that.<\/span><\/p>\n

For starters, since the 25% dip we witnessed on 20 September, investors have sort of lost a lot of confidence. Supply on exchanges, for instance, has risen by over 10 million LINK.<\/span><\/p>\n

Now, this doesn\u2019t necessarily have to indicate selling by investors. But, it is not selling by validators either. Their holdings haven\u2019t seen any drops. <\/span><\/p>\n

Standing at 5,162 LINK, these figures have been rising consistently since 14 September.<\/span><\/p>\n

What’s more, Age Consumed, a metric which shows how many old coins of what age moved recently, saw bouts of long-term holders selling. <\/span><\/p>\n

During each of these spikes, almost 2.5 billion coins days were destroyed. What this suggested was that LTHs keep selling for profit every now and then, instead of HODLing it as we see with other cryptos.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

However, fortunately, mid-term holders are countering it since they are holding their LINK, regardless of this month\u2019s dormant development activity. Owing to the same, addresses aged a year or older have seen a 4% (20k addresses) hike.<\/span><\/p>\n

Hence, as Chainlink continues to prove itself with regular integrations with other projects, it could soon win back the confidence of more investors as well.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
