Chainlink accumulation by large wallet investors
Despite consistent accumulation of LINK by large wallet investors and whales, LINK price has remained largely unchanged over the past thirty days. Analysts believe this is about to change as Chainlink prepares for a massive comeback.
Typically, accumulation by whales is considered a bullish trigger for an asset’s price, therefore Chainlink is likely to witness a recovery in the short-term. After a momentary drop below key support level at $6.92, LINK is headed towards the level yet again. Chainlink has yielded 5% gains for holders overnight, analysts predict a bullish trend reversal once LINK climbs above the $6.92 level.
