A Technical view:
Current LINK price $8.30
- MACD is on a buy signal
- CFM (Chaikin Money Flow) signal is on a buy signal
- Short-term price is above both 20-day and 50-day moving average. A close above $8.80 triggers a long-term buy signal.
If buying the LINK Altcoins isn’t your desire, two Chainlink ETF’s are
- Grayscale ETF (GLNK*) $8.30
- Bitwise ETF (CLNK) $15.09
Of the two ETFs, LOTM likes and owns GLNK* better due to its reinvestment back into GLNK profolio of earned Chainlink staking rewards. That is about a 3% after expenses passive benefit.
We place Bitcoin, Ethereum, Chainlink, Bittensor, Hyperliquid, and Solana in the small group of networks that have a credible path to generating substantial economic value from real-world usage rather than relying primarily on speculative demand.

If you feel this information is of value and would like to see it continue, please send a link to others who also have an interest in investing. We do not have many readers yet believe we do good work. We are not short-term traders. We believe in strong management, operational execution, strong balance sheets, attractive capital structures that allow shareholders better than average odds and attractive valuation buy-in prices in above average growth situations. Our holding timeline is six months to three years with a double or more in price goal. We dollar-cost-average and manage positions for tax loss harvesting. This is how we use Volatility to “our” advantage. If successful a double in three years is a 30% plus annual simple interest. That beats almost all professional money managers on an annuallized time weighted basis.
If you know of others who are aligned with these goals, please share our blog site with them. Thank you. Tom
