Chainlink (LINK) managed to trim its week-to-date losses after going down by as much as 10% following massive altcoin price correction a couple of days ago.
The crypto, trading at $7.04 according to latest tracking from Coingecko, managed to stop further price bleeding, increasing by 2.1% over the last 24-hours and lowering its seven-day decline to 5.5%.
But even with its price woes that made the digital asset fall from its October 2022 high of $7.92, traders appeared to be unfazed.

Crypto whales tracker Whalestats also shared on Twitter a development that involved the 23rd ranked digital currency in terms of market capitalization.

According to Chainlink’s Twitter post, their ultimate goal is to “unlock the immense value of Web3 by ensuring it has the sustainable, secure infrastructure it needs to go mainstream.”
1Perhaps the successful launch was also the reason why traders continued following Chainlink despite seeing its price drop once again.
