Chainlink (LINK) has surpassed Dogecoin (DOGE) in a critical statistic, driven by an increase in whale activity that has sparked conjecture among cryptocurrency enthusiasts. Data from IntoTheBlock says that Chainlink whale’s $100,000 transactions  have reportedly accumulated $1.29 billion over the last seven days, surpassing the amount of Dogecoin transactions.

The recent price movement of Chainlink, which has seen a notable upward trend for the cryptocurrency market , can be attributed to the spike in whale activity. Chainlink has surpassed Dogecoin as a result of the whale transactions, which is considered a noteworthy accomplishment for the decentralized oracle network.

The general cryptocurrency market seems to be having a good time this week, considering it’s accumulating the profit it recorded recently – especially with the inflows seen last week in the Bitcoin sector. Dogecoin also experienced a major inflow, which was reflected in its 7.3% spike in price, pushing it from $0.0776 – to $0.08327.

Identity and Purpose of the Whales Unknown, Chainlink Rises 48%

The increase in whale activity in the Chainlink ecosystem has raised questions and aroused conjecture among analysts and investors alike. Many have made assumptions about the possible effects on Chainlink’s future price trajectory because the identity and motivations of the enigmatic whale responsible for the rise are yet unknown.

The surge in Chainlink whale transactions has coincided with a notable uptick in trading volume and price volatility, signaling heightened interest and activity within the market. This week makes it three weeks Chainlink is experiencing an uninterrupted huge price movement, pushing it ahead of the general cryptocurrency industry.

News BTC reports that the price of Chainlink has pushed up to more than 48% and has remained consistent from January 25, exceeding $20 for the first time on February 11. The resurgence of whale activity has also sparked conversations about the possible applications and usefulness of Chainlink’s oracle solutions.
