Chainlink Soars to 6-Month Peak as Total Value Secured Blasts Past $93B

Chainlink's native token just shattered resistance levels—hitting highs not seen since February 2025. The oracle network's Total Value Secured (TVS) metric now guards over $93 billion in smart contracts, proving even bear markets can't kill real utility.

Why this surge matters

Unlike meme coins that rise on vapor, LINK's rally coincides with explosive TVS growth—a rare case of price actually reflecting adoption. DeFi's backbone just got stronger while TradFi bankers still debate whether blockchain is 'a fad.'

What's next?

With institutional adoption accelerating and LINK whales accumulating, this could be the launchpad for the next leg up. Or—let's be honest—another chance for paper hands to sell before the real rally begins.

Chainlink network growth

Gains for LINK price comes amid key network developments for the top oracle platform. 

As well as Chainlink Data Streams, the platform has recently unveiled Chainlink Reserve, a new upgrade focused on creating a strategic onchain reserve for LINK. 

The Reserve eyes Chainlink’s long-term growth and sustainability, with efforts put into an aggressive accumulation of LINK tokens.  According to a recent announcement, the initiative will tap into offchain revenue accrued from leading enterprises adopting the Chainlink standard. 

The reserve will also buy LINK using revenue from onchain services, with over $1 million already accumulated as of Chainlink’s update on August 7, 2025. 

One of the biggest developments thi week is the reveal that Chainlink and Intercontinental Exchange, the parent company of the New York Stock Exchange, have partnered to enable real-time, onchain pricing data for foreign exchange and precious metals.

LINK price hit highs NEAR $30 in December and an all-time high of $52.88 in May 2021.
