Chainlink has observed an increase in address activity in the past week. This paved the way for LINK price to rally towards its 2024 high of $20.856 on Binance. 

LINK price is $20.294 on Wednesday, lingering close to its 2024 peak. On-chain metrics paint a bullish picture for Chainlink’s token.

Chainlink on-chain metrics support LINK price gains

Three key on-chain metrics, Active Addresses, Daily Active Addresses and Supply on Exchanges support LINK’s recent price gains. Active Addresses noted several spikes throughout February, as seen in the Santiment chart below. Active Addresses hit a high of 6,493 on February 2.

The Daily Active Addresses chart shows a 12.27% increase in new addresses in the past week. The chart from IntoTheBlock shows a 5% increase in Active Addresses in the past seven days. This supports the rising activity on Chainlink.

LINK Supply on Exchanges dipped in February, dropped from 219.51 million on February 2 to 211.61 million on Wednesday. LINK supply has declined 4% this month, likely reducing the selling pressure on Chainlink’s token. This supports the bullish thesis for Chainlink.

At the time of writing, LINK price is $20.294. If Chainlink’s native token extends its gain, LINK price could revisit its 2024 peak of $20.856.
