LINK Perpetual Contract the Most Traded on FTX

Furthermore, LINK has also broken records on the FTX crypto exchange by surpassing Bitcoin as the most traded perpetual contract on the platform. This feat was highlighted by the CEO of FTX, Sam Bankman-Fried (SBF), via the following Tweet.

LINK Briefly Shaken by the Twitter Hack

A brief glance at Coinmarketcap once again reveals that ChainLink (LINK) is still ranked 8th ahead of Litecoin (LTC) and Binance Coin (BNB). However, the value of the token seems to have been shaken by the Twitter hack. LINK’s journey up the ranks has suffered a brief setback due to the Twitter hack that has had a negative effect on all digital assets.

In the case of LINK, the digital asset briefly dropped below $8 to $7.92 on Binance. However, LINK has since reclaimed some of its bullish momentum and is trading at $8.56 at the time of writing this.
