Chainlink (LINK/USD) price prediction as a breakout is now confirmed

Chainlink (LINK/USD) “below $10 feels criminal.” Those are the words of anonymous crypto analyst Kaleo, who has 538,000 Twitter followers. According to the analyst, Chainlink is experiencing accumulations on top of major support. For this reason, the analyst feels Chainlink is a big bargain at or below $10.

The comments come when Chainlink is witnessing an increase in whale activity. Santiment data indicates that whales were very active, with 33 transactions of more than a million dollar value over the weekend. The whale activity was the highest since June 27th.

It is no coincidence that the LINK price is going higher. As of press time, LINK was trading at $8.45, a slight correction from a nearly 3-month high of $9.1 over the weekend. A quick technical outlook shows that the Chainlink token had broken past a key resistance level. Investors could look to accumulate more amid increasing buying pressure.
