Chainlink Wallets Spike as New Addresses Surge

Chainlink (LINK) Editor: Eugene Serbin

cryptocurrency.com.tr reports that new Chainlink wallets increased steadily throughout the week, marking one of the highest registration points for the quarter. Analytics platforms such as Santiment note that the network added thousands of positive-balance addresses within 48-hour windows. The data shows new addresses reached 1,601 at their peak compared to 974 a day in early August, while active addresses rose from 3,599 to 5,572 before settling at 4,821. About a quarter of the surge in new addresses held, while about two-thirds of the active address increase remains.
