Crypto analyst Ali Martinez warns that Chainlink (LINK) could experience a significant correction of up to 50% as whale transactions decline, indicating a lack of trading interest, while Bitcoin (BTC) may drop 10% if it loses key support and Ethereum (ETH) layer-2 blockchain Optimism (OP) is showing bearish signals with a potential drop of over 47%.
Chainlink (LINK) may be on the verge of a bullish breakout against Bitcoin (BTC), according to crypto analyst Michaël van de Poppe, who believes that the recent launch of the Cross-Chain Interoperability Protocol (CCIP) could significantly boost Chainlink's value.
Chainlink (LINK) is expected to break out of its trading range and experience significant price growth, according to a popular crypto trader, while Bitcoin (BTC) is predicted to cross the 200-day SMA and rally to $28,000 by September 18th. However, the trader suggests Polygon (MATIC) may see a 42% decline and the native token of the Bored Ape Yacht Club community, ApeCoin (APE), is expected to collapse.
Chainlink's LINK tokens have seen significant movements in the market, particularly with transfers from notable Chainlink wallets injecting a substantial number of tokens into various platforms, raising concerns about the asset's stability and future price trajectory.
Chainlink's LINK token outperformed the top 20 cryptocurrencies in the past week with a 14% gain, supported by increased network activity and adoption of its Cross-Chain Interoperability Protocol (CCIP), while other major cryptocurrencies performed poorly.
Chainlink (LINK) and three other altcoins are expected to see more price surges based on bullish on-chain data, with Chainlink experiencing increased unique address activity and potential rallies if market participants remain indifferent to its performance. Additionally, Loom Network (LOOM), Frontier (FRONT), and ImmutableX (IMX) are outperforming the broader crypto markets with increased adoption. Bitcoin, on the other hand, has seen a rise in the number of addresses holding less than 100 BTC, while whales have been selling since June.
Chainlink (LINK) is predicted to outperform other altcoins in the next bull cycle due to its solid fundamentals and its role as core infrastructure for numerous projects, according to crypto strategist Altcoin Sherpa. On the other hand, Altcoin Sherpa believes that Rollbit Coin (RLB) may decline in price in the coming weeks. Additionally, Altcoin Sherpa warns that Bitcoin (BTC) could potentially drop close to $20,000 as it struggles to maintain its bullish momentum.
Chainlink (LINK) may be on the verge of reversing its multi-year downtrend and sustaining bullish momentum, as it moves above a key long-term indicator, according to crypto strategist Kevin Svenson. However, Svenson also suggests that LINK may need more time before entering bull territory and breaking out above its macro resistance.
Bitcoin is currently facing rejection at its current price point, while Chainlink is positioned well to close the week above its downtrend trendline, potentially leading to upward movement for the cryptocurrency.
Ethereum-based altcoin Chainlink (LINK) is predicted to experience a final correction before doubling in price, potentially reaching $12-$15 by 2024, according to crypto strategist Michaël van de Poppe, who expects other altcoins to continue gaining momentum as long as Bitcoin remains consolidated. Bitcoin, on the other hand, could rally to $30,000 if it successfully retests the $26,700-$26,900 range.
Crypto strategist Altcoin Sherpa predicts that a surge in altcoin trading could occur in the coming months, particularly in December and January, with Ethereum expected to lead the way after a 5% decline against Bitcoin.
Chainlink (LINK) is predicted to have a bullish breakout, potentially doubling in price to around $14, according to an analyst who accurately predicted the crypto bottom in November 2022. However, the analyst notes that the price action of Bitcoin (BTC) will also play a significant role in Chainlink's future performance.
