No cryptocurrency has outperformed Chainlink<\/a> over the last two years of the bear market. But like everything that goes up with such powerful momentum, the way back down is almost nearly as strong.<\/p>\n In what feels like a flash, Chainlink has already lost a full 60% from the 2020 high at $20 to the recent local low. Thus far, the correction has been “healthy” according to one crypto analyst, but if support is lost at $8, so-called Link Marines will be turned into “submarines” with their holdings underwater.<\/p>\n Chainlink shocked all crypto market participants this year with its astronomical rise out of Black Thursday lows<\/a>.<\/p>\n During the mid-March madness, the token fell in value to nearly zero on some cryptocurrency exchanges<\/a>, and anyone who caught that random spike down made themselves a small fortune.<\/p>\n In fact, anyone who bought even the normal lows that day sans any flash crash would have turned roughly $2 into $20 for each LINK token held<\/a>.<\/p>\n After just a few short weeks, the asset set a new all-time high and went into full price discovery mode.

The once unstoppable cryptocurrency has now had a steep, yet “healthy” correction, according to one crypto analyst<\/a>.<\/p>\n The fall to support is likely to hold strong here, the analyst claims, or else “Link Marines” – the token’s most vocal supporters – will become “submarines” in reference to their positions being underwater.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n So long as support at $8 holds, a correction after such an intense parabolic rise is likely to remain healthy. But if Bitcoin and other past parabolic crypto assets are anything to go by, an 80% or more decline isn’t off the table<\/a>, statistics show.<\/p>\n But the Link Marines<\/a> are a bullish bunch, and few crypto assets have had the momentum behind it that Chainlink has.<\/p>\n Related Reading | Chainlink Cryptocurrency Recognized By World Economic Forum As 2020 Technology Pioneer<\/a><\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n At least a short-term reversal back to higher prices appears to be in the cards, with Chainlink forming a falling wedge reversal pattern<\/a> on daily timeframes.<\/p>\nWhy Chainlink Investors Could Find Themselves Underwater, Claims Analyst<\/h2>\n
