Link Price Gains Momentum on Increasing Whale Accumulation

Link Attracting Whales Amid Robust Buy-In The entire cryptocurrency market is now in a fresh wave of bullish trend as Bitcoin and Ethereum made impressive gains during the past 24 hours. The positive performance of the two largest cryptocurrencies has spilled into altcoin space, with several altcoins gaining significant value. In that regard, Chainlink’s LINK has emerged as a focus of traders after the token registered a robust uptrend during the last day. LINK has gained above 8%, taking the coin’s value close to $10.65. The uptrend comes at a time when LINK had been trading with weak momentum and lack of direction. The uptrend is being backed by whales. Market trends suggest that there has been continued accumulation of LINK by whales rather than one-off very large transactions. Such an accumulation can prove very important as buying pressure on LINK can play an essential role in supporting the token. Unlike other transactions, LINK buying activities indicate that there have been gra...
