Chainlink active addresses drop as whale selling spikes, could LINK crash below $10?

Chainlink (LINK) has seen a lackluster downward trend in its performance since reaching a peak of $30.86 in December. Despite targeted attempts from bulls to change course, recovery for the Oracle network token remains elusive, with LINK sliding by 0.74% on the day to trade at $12.15 at the time of writing on Wednesday. These rampant downside risks can be attributed to weak fundamentals observed from several metrics, including network and whale activity.

Bitcoin Price Forecast: Bitcoin stabilizes around $83,000 as China opens trade talks with President Trump’s administration

Bitcoin (BTC) is stabilizing around $83,500 at the time of writing on Wednesday after facing multiple rejections around the 200-day Exponential Moving Average (EMA) at $85,000 since Saturday. A breakout of this strong level would indicate a bullish trend ahead. In the meantime, according to Bloomberg, China is open to trade talks with US President Trump’s administration, signaling reduced trade war tensions, which could boost risk-on sentiment in the short term and benefit risky assets like Bitcoin.
