Canaan Receives Nasdaq Deficiency Notice After Shares Dip Below $1.00

On-chain data shows the largest of Chainlink whales have been accumulating 
recently even as the cryptocurrency&#8217;s price has slipped below $13.00. Top 100 
Chainlink Whales Have Been Expanding Their Supply In a new post on X, on-chain 
analytics firm Santiment has talked about the latest trend in the holdings of 
the 100 largest addresses present on the Chainlink network. Related Reading: 
Bitcoin IFP Hints At Potential Turnaround: What It Means This category of 
holders naturally includes the large whales, investors who carry sums 
significant enough to have some influence on the blockchain. As such, their 
combined supply can be worth keeping an eye on. Below is the chart shared by 
Santiment that shows the trend in the supply of the 100 largest Chainlink 
addresses over the last few months. As displayed in the graph, the Chainlink 
supply held by the top 100 addresses went up in November as the 
cryptocurrency&#8217;s price plummeted, a possible sign that big-money investors 
were loading up. These whales shed some of their holdings in December and the 
first week of January, but recently, they have showed signs of renewed 
accumulation as LINK&#8217;s price has plunged below the $13.00 level. Compared to 
the start of November, the cohort&#8217;s holdings are up 16.1 million tokens. &#8220;As 
retail sells off due to impatience &amp; FUD, it&#8217;s common to see smart money 
gather up more $LINK to prepare for (or cause) the next pump,&#8221; explained the 
analytics firm. It now remains to be seen whether this accumulation will have 
any effect on the cryptocurrency. Chainlink isn&#8217;t the only asset that has seen 
movements from large investors recently. As Santiment has highlighted in 
another X post, Bitcoin sharks and whales have participated in net buying over 
the last nine days. In the context of BTC, sharks and whales are defined as 
investors holding between 10 to 10,000 tokens. Below is a chart that shows how 
the supply of these investors has changed since late July. As is visible in 
the graph, the Bitcoin sharks and whales have increased their combined supply 
by 36,322 BTC in the last nine days, equivalent to an increase of 0.27%. 
Interestingly, the large investors have held on despite the fact that the 
asset&#8217;s price has gone through a retrace over the past few days. Related

However, the same hasn&#8217;t been true for the opposite end of the market, the 
retail entities. These investors, corresponding to addresses holding less than 
0.01 BTC, have shed 132 BTC (0.28%) in the same window. LINK Price At the time 
of writing, Chainlink is floating around $12.33, down more than 10% in the 
last seven days. Featured image from Dall-E, chart from TradingView.com
