Chainlink (LINK) traded at $11.44 on August 23, 2026, slipping 0.61% over the prior 24 hours. The modest daily pullback followed a strong run-up that left the token with a seven-day gain of 21.75%.
Over the past 30 days, LINK has advanced 35.02%, reflecting sustained buying pressure across the broader period even as short-term momentum cooled. The asset's market capitalization stood at $9.26 billion at the time of writing.
The contrast between the daily decline and the weekly and monthly gains suggests the token experienced a period of consolidation after a significant upward move. Trading activity over the near term will indicate whether buyers return to push prices higher or whether the pullback deepens.
