Chainlink unlocks 19M token worth $269M and transfers to Binance

Blockchain network Chainlink unlocked 19 million tokens valued at $269 million, most of which were transferred to Binance. Some have speculated that the blockchain network sent the tokens to add liquidity to the exchange, especially since Binance accounts for most of LINK’s trading volume. However, the unlocking event has yet to cause any drastic change to LINK’s trading price, with the token currently changing hands at $14.03 . Chainlink has unlocked more than 170 million tokens since August 2022 Chainlink sent 14.875 million LINK, roughly worth $212.9 million, to Binance while the remaining 4.125 million LINK were transferred to a multi-sig wallet, with the address 0xD50. Notably, this is not the first time Chainlink has unlocked its tokens. Since August 2022, Chainlink has released 176 million LINK, valued at over $2.43 billion at current prices. Out of the 176 million, 151.3 million have been transferred to Binance at an average price of $11.41. Normally, after almost every unlocking event, LINK has been known to drop before surging in a day or two. This time, LINK’s price remains relatively stable, and the impact of the unlocking event has yet to be clearly seen. A t the time of the unlock, Chainlink had about 467.63 million LINK. Currently, the network still holds about 342.5 million LINK across non-circulating supply contracts.
