The cryptocurrency Chainlink is experiencing a significant surge in activity, driven by a sharp increase in large transaction volumes and involvement from major investors.

Sharp Increase in Transaction Volumes

According to IntoTheBlock data, Chainlink's large transaction volume increased by 1700.73% in the past day, totaling $1.01 billion or 73.41 million LINK. This is the largest large transaction volume recorded yearly, except for September 20, 2024, when large transaction volumes reached 65.02 million LINK.

Token Unlocks and Movement to Binance

Chainlink completed its quarterly token unlock the day before, releasing 19 million LINK tokens (nearly $262 million) from two noncirculating supply addresses. Among them, 14.875 million LINK (about $205 million) were transferred directly to Binance, and the remaining 4.125 million LINK (nearly $57.04 million) were sent to a multisig address.

Actions of Crypto Whales and Their Impact

On-chain analytics platform SpotOnChain reported that a crypto whale spent 7.1 million USDC to buy 506,226 LINK at an average price of $14.03. The whale also sold 1,108.83 ETH for 2.1 million USDC and withdrew another five million USDC from Spark. In an unexpected move, the whale sold 1.34 million LINK on-chain for $18.36 million at $13.7, a loss of $512,000 or 2.7%.
