Decentralized oracle network Chainlink (LINK) could be ready for takeoff, according to one popular crypto analyst.

In a new strategy session, widely followed analyst Benjamin Cowen tells his 528,000 subscribers that he believes Chainlink is primed to rally past three digits this market cycle. 

 “My speculation with LINK – and it always has been – is that we should break $100 this market cycle. And I would speculate that we go above that… We could go to several hundred dollars this market cycle.

I completely messed up, guys. My life savings are gone for good. I have learned a devastating hard lesson… I still haven’t said anything to my wife. She doesn’t know that, and this is killing me from the inside. Ouvert / Commentaire
