Trading volume jumped 71.12% to $746.57 million, according to Binance. That spike in volume stands out against recent sessions where activity was more subdued.

LINK has been consolidating in a rectangle pattern, bouncing between support at $8.00 and resistance at $9.20–$9.30. Analyst CryptoPulse described it as a neutral range where traders can play both sides until a clear move happens.

The RSI on the 4-hour chart sits between 40 and 60, pointing to balanced conditions. Neither buyers nor sellers are in control right now.

The MACD shows a mild bullish crossover, but the histogram bars are shallow. That suggests the crossover lacks conviction and a strong trend has not formed yet.

If LINK breaks above $9.30, analysts say the next targets are $9.80 to $10.20. A drop below $8.00 could bring $7.50–$7.70 into play.

Canton Blockchain Integrates Chainlink CCIP

Canton, a public blockchain built for regulated tokenized assets, has deployed Chainlink’s Cross-Chain Interoperability Protocol (CCIP) and data standards. The move expands institutional access to tokenized real-world assets across chains.

Chainlink Data Streams, SmartData NAV and AUM feeds, and Proof of Reserve are now live on Canton. Apps including CBTC by BitSafe, Unhedged, and Thetanuts Finance are already using the integration.

Since its mainnet launch in May 2024, Canton has processed over $8 trillion in on-chain real-world assets. It handles roughly $350 billion in daily U.S. Treasury repo transactions.

Chainlink Labs serves as a Canton Super Validator, handling governance and transaction sequencing.

Eric Saraniecki, Co-Founder of Digital Asset, said: “The Canton ecosystem has rapidly adopted Chainlink’s standards in production, expanding offerings and growth opportunities.”

Johann Eid, Chief Business Officer at Chainlink Labs, added: “This partnership enables regulated markets to move on-chain with the security and reliability required at scale.”

Where LINK Stands Now

LINK’s market cap sits at $6.31 billion. Circulating supply is approximately 708.10 million LINK.

The token remains more than 80% below its 2021 high of around $52.70.

On the daily chart, LINK continues to form lower highs since late 2025. Resistance sits at $9.20–$9.50, with support holding near $8.50.

As of March 2, 2026, LINK is trading just above the $8.50 support zone with volume elevated and the Canton integration now live.
