The company’s Onchain Data Protocol has processed more than $26 trillion in transactions, demonstrating that it reliably and transparently connects decentralized networks to traditional finance. Governments are now using Chainlink’s technology to build decentralized systems for digital assets and data.
Chainlink’s partnerships with major financial institutions expand its market reach beyond DeFi. By standardizing data, the protocol ensures services run smoothly across industries and attracts more businesses. Analysts see increasing national and institutional interest as a key driver and suggest that LINK could soon enter another strong phase of growth.
Chainlink price rises almost 3% – breakout above 0.00022 BTC in sight
LINK is trading at $15.92, equivalent to 0.0001535 BTC, up 2.95% in the last 24 hours. Trading volume increased by 34%, but the token is still below its fully diluted value of $15.92 billion. The price has recently stabilized near the key support around 0.0001368 BTC and has remained at this level since the end of 2023.
Technical indicators show price compression between 0.0001368 BTC and 0.000250 BTC, a range that has been ongoing since early 2025. The weekly charts show a long-term decline from the 2021 highs, but recent stable prices are curbing the downtrend. This narrow range often comes before a breakout and signals that buyers are becoming more active.
The immediate resistance area is between 0.00020 BTC and 0.00022 BTC. If LINK rises above this area, it could end its long downtrend. Analysts expect the price to reach higher targets at 0.0002733 BTC and 0.0004389 BTC linked to past market changes and see strong upside potential if the momentum continues.
Analysts predict LINK will reach $100 by the end of the year
Market analysts remain optimistic about Chainlink’s near-term prospects. Van de Poppe said that LINK has a great chance of outperforming Bitcoin, expects prices to rise again and predicts that it will do very well in DeFi by 2026. He praised SmartCon as a significant event that increased people’s trust and belief in Chainlink’s solutions.
Ali Martinez designated the $13 to $26 price range as a “no-trade zone” and said LINK will likely stay within that range until it moves significantly above or below. Investor Jordan, on the other hand, called Chainlink a “monster in the making” and predicted that LINK could climb to over $100 by the end of 2025, representing a potential gain of 500%.
Technical analysis supports this bullish outlook. The RSI is in neutral territory, the weekly moving averages have leveled off, and trading volume is light. These signs suggest that selling pressure is weak and the market could gain strength as traders prepare for a possible breakout above key resistance levels.
According to analysts, if LINK breaks through the first resistance at 0.00022 BTC, the price could rise to $49.90, a 165% increase from current levels. Strong adoption across institutional and domestic networks could sustain bullish momentum and give investors more confidence that the token is poised for a significant bullish rally.
