LINK’s Six-Year Siesta: Will Robinhood and Ondo Wake the Slumbering Giant?

by

Egad, old sport, Chainlink (LINK), that stalwart of the oracle set, has been having a bit of a rough February, what? Despite what one might call a veritable cornucopia of jolly good news, the wretched thing insists on behaving like a damp squib at a fireworks display.

As the price action teeters on a support level that’s been sturdier than Jeeves after a spot of tea, one can’t help but wonder if February will be the month LINK finally decides to stop lounging about and enter a new price phase. Tally-ho!

February’s Fireworks Fizzle Out Faster Than a Bertie Wooster Scheme

The price charts, old bean, show that the current level around $8.4 is perched on a trendline that’s been holding since 2020. It’s like the chap who’s been propping up the bar at the Drones Club for years-reliable, but one wonders when he’ll finally order something other than a gin and tonic.

Now, one might think that strategic partnerships with the likes of Robinhood and Ondo Finance would be enough to give LINK the kick it needs. But no, the market sentiment remains as dour as Aunt Agatha after a spot of bad bridge.

Robinhood, that plucky upstart, has launched a public testnet for Robinhood Chain, a Layer 2 network on Arbitrum. And who’s the oracle provider? Why, Chainlink, of course! It’s like Jeeves stepping in to sort out one of Bertie’s messes-smooth, efficient, and utterly indispensable.

JUST IN: @RobinhoodApp launches public testnet and partners with Chainlink as the oracle platform for Robinhood Chain.

Builders can leverage Chainlink’s data, interoperability, and compliance standards to power advanced tokenization use cases.

Ondo Finance, meanwhile, has also thrown its hat into the ring, selecting Chainlink as its official data provider. The goal? To accelerate the adoption of tokenized stocks and ETFs. It’s all very modern, like trying to explain the internet to Uncle George.

“Using Chainlink, DeFi protocols can now price Ondo Global Markets assets with best-in-class accuracy, manage positions safely, and provide users with more protection during volatile market conditions,” Ondo Finance stated, with all the gravitas of a chap announcing the arrival of the soup course.

Alas, these partnerships have yet to translate into a price rally. It’s as if the market is too busy sipping its port to notice the fanfare. LINK’s price remains as stubborn as a mule at a tea party, showing no clear rebound from its six-year support level.

And then there’s the matter of exchange-side selling pressure, which has intensified like a particularly persistent aunt inquiring about one’s marital prospects. Exchange Inflow (Top 10) rose sharply in February 2026, indicating that large volumes of LINK are being deposited at once. It’s the financial equivalent of a sudden downpour at a garden party.

A similar spike occurred last September, and LINK’s price promptly took a nosedive. Now, the metric is on the rise again, suggesting that some large holders are preparing to liquidate. It’s enough to make one reach for the smelling salts.

Sustained selling pressure could push LINK below its six-year support, but let’s not lose hope, old chap. The partnerships with Robinhood and Ondo still offer a glimmer of long-term optimism. A meaningful recovery will likely require a more favorable market environment, much like Bertie Wooster requires Jeeves to navigate the complexities of life.
