Chainlink (LINK) traded at $11.65 at 08:41 UTC Saturday (4:41 a.m. ET), with its 24-hour change showing a 4.36% decline, CoinGecko and exchange spot data showed. At that price, LINK was 21 cents below the $11.86 support level cited in an earlier EconoTimes story about an Oct. 16 market setup.
Chainlink services accept LINK as payment, while staking is part of the network’s security model. The $11.65 figure is a point-in-time spot quote; the 4.36% decline measures the change across the 24 hours before the snapshot.
A Friday market snapshot recorded LINK at $12.18 at 4:46 a.m. ET (08:46 UTC), up 1.29% over the preceding 24 hours. The Friday and Saturday percentages cover separate rolling windows, so they do not represent one continuous day-to-day return.
