Chainlink's LINK token surged 14.7% this week, breaking above $8.90 resistance and reaching $9.60 before settling near $9.43. A large holder moved nearly 1 million LINK tokens to Coinbase after accumulating 2.41 million LINK, signaling potential selling pressure. Open interest in LINK futures rose to about $690 million, indicating leverage-driven buying. Chainlink is also set to participate in a White House meeting on August 19 with other crypto firms, which may influence market sentiment. LINK is currently testing a multi-year descending trendline around $9.50-$10.00, with strong support at $7.50-$8.00, suggesting a possible trend reversal if it breaks higher. Additionally, Chainlink announced support for tokenized U.S. stocks on the Hyperliquid platform, expanding its blockchain use cases.
