Cryptotimes.io reports that Infosys and Chainlink have entered a strategic partnership to explore blockchain infrastructure for financial institutions. The collaboration focuses on cross-chain connectivity, compliance, financial data, and reserve verification. Chainlink announced the deal on September 22, stating the two companies will work across several components of its infrastructure stack.
The partnership spans multiple Chainlink services rather than a single blockchain application. These services include Cross-Chain Interoperability Protocol for cross-chain applications and Proof of Reserve for automated verification of assets. The announcement does not name a specific bank or financial institution that will deploy the technology.
No financial terms or production timeline were disclosed for the agreement. Infosys supports critical banking and payments infrastructure for more than 1.7 billion customer accounts worldwide. This figure refers to the broader reach of its financial-services business and does not represent users of the new Chainlink collaboration. The agreement is currently described at the infrastructure level rather than as a live financial deployment.
How the market reacted
Whalio's own Binance spot order flow for LINK, measured when this story was written up on 22 September 2026. Not the outlet's figures.
LINK trades at $13.18 with a 24-hour buy ratio of 52.4%, indicating a slight majority of buying pressure over the full day. The 1-hour buy ratio drops to 46.1%, suggesting that immediate buying momentum is fading compared to the longer-term trend. Volume delta reflects this shift, showing a net outflow of $118,163 in the last hour versus a net inflow of $636,114 over four hours. The cumulative volume delta for the day stands at $2,970,123, with a CVD close of $3,163,564. This indicates that while buyers dominated the 24-hour period, recent activity shows a pullback in aggressive accumulation.
The latest daily buy ratio of 49.4% sits at the 56th percentile of the last 322 days, against a median of 48.8% - ordinary for this coin.
Was that an ordinary day?
The same Binance spot measurements for LINK, averaged over the days leading up to the story.
Over the preceding week, LINK saw a 7-day average buy ratio of 50.4%, with the latest day showing a 2.1 point increase above that average. Trading volume was 2.17 times the weekly average, signaling significantly higher activity than usual. The price rose 14.5% over eight days, supported by a total volume delta of $4,378,688. This contrasts with the current 24-hour volume delta of $2,970,123, showing that the recent hourly outflow is part of a larger, sustained weekly uptrend. Five of the last seven days saw net buying, confirming this is an unusual period of elevated activity for the coin.
