Chainlink LINK Sees Massive 300% Since June 2022, Dueling By Continuous Project Development
Chainlink has experienced a remarkable surge of 300% since June 17, 2022, skyrocketing from $6.3 to a recent peak of $19.68.
The recent pump in LINK may be attributed to Chainlink’s Q4 ’23 product update, where the Chainlink Chief Product Officer hinted at the upcoming launch of LINK CCIP General Access early next year. Projects are gearing up for $LINK CCIP GA, driving the demand for $LINK as they prepare to leverage its capabilities.
