Chainlink's native cryptocurrency, $LINK, has experienced a notable price surge, surpassing $26 for the first time in seven months and reaching highs not seen since early 2025. This rally is accompanied by increased wallet activity and a strong market momentum aiming toward the $30 mark. Over recent days, $LINK has outperformed major cryptocurrencies such as Bitcoin and Ethereum, with an 8.3% increase compared to BTC's 0.5% and ETH's 4%. The token reached a peak price of $28.85, marking a 165% year-to-date gain. This upward trend coincides with the unveiling of Chainlink Endgame, a development vision to establish Chainlink as the "AWS of blockchains." Institutional interest appears to be growing, as whale investors have increased their holdings by 66% over the past month, and there is ongoing discussion about potential ETF listings. Chainlink has also achieved ISO 27001 certification for its oracle services, reinforcing its position as enterprise-grade infrastructure suitable for real-world applications with major financial institutions. The community and developers continue to emphasize Chainlink's role in integrating real-world assets into the digital economy and powering future finance applications.
