【Retail traders’ biggest misconception: thinking LINK is just moving up with BTC】
Last week, a friend asked me, “Has LINK been pumping along with BTC again lately?” I looked at the data and told him, “Take a closer look.”
LINK’s 7-day gain is 23.3%. Over the same period, BTC rose from 70,000 to 75,000—less than 8%. LINK is triple BTC. Is that “following along”?
And here’s the key—this isn’t retail chasing. The trading volume has blown up abnormally, exceeding 5% of market cap. Plainly put: big money is in.
I’ve seen this kind of signal during the last bull run. In the Binance ecosystem, Chainlink’s target audience expanded from DeFi to the data needs of traditional finance—this storyline has been around for about two years. But what’s different this time is that the AI + RWA narrative has really taken off, and Chainlink happens to sit right at the point of chaining real-world assets. I’m not hearing these concepts for the first time, but this time the business logic is actually running—not just a PowerPoint.
Of course, I also need to be clear: I previously underestimated how fast this move started. I thought we’d still need a catalyst, but the continuous inflow into the BTC ETF has directly lifted sentiment. Market sentiment is faster and more impatient than I expected.
What should you focus on next week? The resistance level at 11.1. If it breaks, momentum will carry it upward for a round; if it doesn’t, watch for profit-taking pullbacks. The FNG index is already at 72—this is in the greed zone. It can still rise, but position management needs to stay clear-headed.
Has my view for this week changed? Yes. I was originally more cautious about LINK’s mid-to-long-term thesis, but now I’m leaning more actively. Not because it’s gone up—I’m changing my assessment because the signal that big funds have entered changes my probability evaluation.
Do you think LINK’s logic right now is driven by real demand, or is it just a sentiment bubble? #LINK #加密分析 #BULLBALLS #Market Insight
