Recent Important News on LINK:
1️⃣ Bitwise Launches Chainlink Spot ETF Product
Bitwise has launched a Chainlink spot ETF called CLNK on NYSE Arca, marking an important recognition of the Chainlink ecosystem by traditional financial markets. The launch provides institutional investors with a more convenient way to gain exposure to LINK, helping to expand Chainlink’s penetration into mainstream investment portfolios. However, the short-term market needs time to digest this positive development and form sustained buying support.
2️⃣ Ongoing Execution of Strategic Reserve Plan
During the recent market downturn, Chainlink’s official team continued adding LINK tokens to its strategic reserves, with an additional 74,000 LINK tokens added during the recent market adjustment. This move reflects the project’s strong commitment to long-term development and indicates that Chainlink sees strategic value in the current price range. However, the market’s short-term reaction remains limited by macroeconomic sentiment.
3️⃣ Expansion of Institutional-Grade Application Cases
A real estate company in Arizona has adopted LINK tokens as part of its corporate treasury strategy, demonstrating the expanding application of the Chainlink ecosystem in traditional industries. The increase in real-world use cases supports Chainlink’s fundamentals, though current market volatility is mainly driven by short-term technical adjustments and macro sentiment.

Ethereum drops 30% but still sees whales adding positions. Will the market reverse after ETF positions are deeply trapped?
On February 11, news reports indicate that since 2026, Ethereum (ETH) has continued to weaken, with a total decline of over 30% this year, and the price has once fallen below the $2,000 mark. The latest data shows that ETH is currently trading at approximately $1,971. The main holding groups—including long-term accumulated addresses and ETF investors—have all entered an unrealized loss zone, but there has been no panic outflow of funds. The market presents a complex pattern of “price pressure and stable chips.”
On-chain analyst CW8900 pointed out that the current ETH price has fallen below the realized average price established during the whale accumulation period since June 2025, indicating that a large number of core addresses are in floating loss. Meanwhile, the on-paper loss of the world's largest Ethereum vault, BitMine, has exceeded $7 billion. However, data shows that these addresses have not withdrawn en masse; instead, they have continued to add positions at low levels.

Pre-NFP Shock in the US: Bitcoin Drops to $66,000, Market Bets on Employment Data Influencing BTC Movement
February 11 News, due to the market's high attention to the upcoming release of the U.S. January non-farm payrolls and unemployment rate, Bitcoin prices have sharply retreated to around $66,000 in the past 24 hours. The dollar and U.S. Treasury yields are moving in sync, with Wall Street generally believing that employment may rebound, which would weaken the Federal Reserve's possibility of cutting interest rates in June, thereby putting pressure on risk assets including Bitcoin.
The U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) will release the January employment report today. Economists expect non-farm payrolls to increase by about 70,000, higher than December's 50,000, indicating that the labor market, while slowing, remains resilient. The forecast range varies from a decrease of 10,000 jobs to an increase of 135,000, with the unemployment rate possibly remaining at 4.4%. Average hourly earnings are expected to grow by 0.3% month-over-month, with the annual growth rate slowing to 3.6%.
