Chainlink (LINK) is currently consolidating at just over $17.60 after a substantial rally over the last month. The asset price has advanced more than 30% in the previous 30 days, driven by institutional demand and positive signals from price charts.
Recent technical analysis by a crypto analyst on X (formerly Twitter) Ali Charts highlighted a bullish pattern, stating, “Chainlink LINK looks to be in the middle of a bullish retest at the breakout zone. This setup could pave the way for a move to $22 or even $28!” The analyst noted that breaking and holding above the $20 mark could trigger further gains before the end of summer.
Whale accumulation has played a significant role in LINK’s price movement. According to Ali, large holders acquired over 1.6 million LINK tokens over the past two weeks. This type of whale activity is often seen as an indicator that influential traders expect future price increases.
Additional factors supporting LINK’s recent surge include a broader crypto market rally led by Bitcoin, as well as the approval of legislative measures such as the GENIUS, CLARITY, and Anti-CBDC acts. Despite these gains, LINK’s trading volume decreased by 18% in the past 24 hours. The asset also fell below $18 recently, raising some short-term concerns.
Analysts from CoinCodex remain optimistic, projecting that LINK will climb by around 5.8% to reach $18.66 by late August 2025. Their assessment indicates a bullish market sentiment, as shown by a Fear & Greed Index rating of 74, which suggests strong investor enthusiasm.
