This waning price action appears to have urged a potential buy-the-dip strategy among crypto market whales, driving the abovementioned accumulation. Usual market sentiments convey optimism for the crypto, hinting at large-scale investors’ confidence in the asset’s potential to pump ahead. 
Meanwhile, recent data by Santiment highlighted that LINK’s 30-day MVRV rested at 11.1%, hinting that the asset is an opportunity zone. For context, the lower the MVRV, the more undervalued an asset, paving the path for buyers to enter the LINK market and pump the coin.

Also, despite the weekly dip in price, LINK has regained an upward momentum today, aligning with the accumulations and MVRV.

At press time, the <a href="https://coingape.com/price/chainlink/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">LINK price</a> showed a 4.71% upswing in the past 24 hours and is currently resting at $13.44. The token’s 24-hour slumps and peaks were $11.83 and $13.44, underlining the presence of turbulency in tandem with broader market trends. 
Nonetheless, Coinglass data spotlighted a market uptrend for Chainlink, as its Futures OI and derivatives volume surged remarkably. LINK’s OI jumped 5.60% to 157.16 million, whereas the derivatives volume surged 56.70% to $423.68 million. This data indicated increased investor interest in the asset and increased derivatives market activity. 
However, the RSI rested along the 46 mark, hinting at broader asset neutrality. This hints at an uncertain movement for the token ahead, although on-chain data has projected a ray of optimism on the coin’s long-term prospects.
