This Chart Suggests Chainlink’s Parabolic Rise Isn’t Finished

Chainlink volatility is increasing after the asset fell from its all-time high of $20. A 60% collapse sent the cryptocurrency plummeting, only to see a record-breaking bounce that beat any intraday throughout the rest of the altcoin’s amazing 2020 so far.
