Major developments are happening at Chainlink as LINK reaches all-time high

Chainlink has seen a huge influx of new money lately, with its native cryptocurrency LINK reaching an all-time high of $8.23.

The rally was accompanied by a slew of major announcements from Chainlink, which partnered with several new DeFi projects and is set to hold an action-packed virtual summit focused on smart contracts at the end of August.

Chainlink's native token reaches ATH as retail investors race with FOMO. Chainlink investors seem to be suffering from a serious case of FOMO, as they managed to pump the platform's native token to its all-time high in a rather dull and uninspiring market.

According to Cryptoslate data, LINK saw its price increase over 59 percent this past week.

Data from cryptocurrency analytics company IntoTheBlock showed that 16 percent of addresses are holding LINK since last month.

Chainlink's partnerships with companies such as Google have led many to anticipate that it would be institutional money that would propel LINK to great heights.

This belief was backed with major developments coming from Chainlink-in its weekly update, Chainlink announced several new partnerships.

Low-volatility money protocol Meter.io, loan provider Nexo Finance, and digital ticketing platform DigiTxio have all began to use Chainlink's price reference data.

Aside from partnerships with upcoming DeFi protocols and platforms, Chainlink has also been busy with its upcoming virtual summit.

The summit is set to feature some of the top minds that bridge the gap between major corporations and blockchain technology, including the co-founder of Microsoft Blockchain Yorke E. Rhodes and the co-founder of IBM Blockchain and ConsenSys John Wolpert.
