Chainlink Sees Highest Whale Activity in 14 Months, Is Major Move Coming?

Decentralized oracle network Chainlink is gaining attention as its whale activity reaches its highest level in 14 months, fueling expectations of an impending major price move. Large transactions, which are those above $100,000 involving Chainlink (LINK), have increased significantly, with these reaching levels not seen in over a year, suggesting that whales might be making moves.

According to on-chain analytics platform Santiment, Chainlink has experienced the most whale activity in 14 months, with on-chain activity notably high below the $20 mark. As cryptocurrency prices fell, Santiment noted that Chainlink stood out as a network with a significant dip in buying from major stakeholders.

In its tweet, Santiment noted that 1,659 daily $100,000 LINK transactions are the most since 2023, and 9,531 active wallets the most in four weeks. Notably, 1,659 transactions of over $100,000 LINK were recorded in a 24-hour timeframe, which is the most since Dec. 6, 2023. A total of 9,531 unique active link addresses is also the most since Dec. 11, 2024.
