EXperts Eyeing Chainlink Price To Reach $30 Faster

The Chainlink price has, in recent weeks, grown above the $15 mark from almost the $13 mark. This move has pushed its price beyond the 20-day and 50-day EMA bands.

It is inching toward the $19 resistance area while the 200-day EMA band is in the way. If it jumps, then LINK could test $19 in the ongoing June.

While an expert considers a $30 target to come much faster, despite being one of the top 20 by market cap. As he strongly believes that not all memecoins can do 100% gains as small caps, the LINK rise is imminent with the upcoming alt season, and this multi-billion crypto could claim 100% gains.
