Chainlink underwent a quarterly token unlock

 

Quarterly Chainlink Token Unlocking

The Blockchain oracle service known as LINK unlocked of 19 million or new tokens which at the time were worth $262 million. This is part of standard three month release process by Chainlink. 

The release sent tokens to a few known and a few new wallets:

  • For example, $205 million worth of LINK was sent directly to Binance and 
  • additional $57 million worth of LINK was transferred to a separate multi-signature address
  • and non-circulating supply address will unlock about 10 to 20 million LINK.

 

Why is it important to point out where the LINK were sent?

Since 2022, nearly 163.65 million LINK ($1.81 billion) have been unlocked and flowed into Binance through the above release method.  Binance offers EARN yield of roughly 0.12% for LINK and it the number one place to purchase LINK tokens.

 

Summary

LINK continues to march forward with its Oracle stance and securing its ecosystem. Are you a LINK Whale or a minnow?
