HBAR & Chainlink: Two Surprising Standouts in a Shaky Crypto Market

  • HBAR’s been a quiet overachiever, gaining 230% over six months despite a recent dip—traders are watching key levels between $0.12 and $0.33 for the next move.
  • Chainlink (LINK) is holding steady, with a 6-month climb of 14% and support building near $11, even as short-term momentum stays a bit shaky.
  • Both coins are showing resilience, and while the market’s still messy, their solid fundamentals and steady action could set the stage for more upside soon.

Let’s face it—crypto’s been a mess lately. Volatility, macro noise, and whiplash-inducing charts have become the norm. But in the middle of all this chaos, a couple of tokens—Hedera (HBAR) and Chainlink (LINK)—have actually held up better than expected. Yeah, really.

So, what’s going on under the hood? Let’s break it down.

Hedera (HBAR): Quiet Comeback with Big Numbers

HBAR’s been on a wild ride. Over the past month, it’s slipped around 10.8%, which doesn’t sound great… but zoom out a bit and the story changes. Over the past six months, Hedera is actually up a massive 230%. That’s not a typo.

Last week? It clawed back about 5%, showing signs of buyers trying to test the waters again. The token’s been bouncing between $0.12 and $0.25 for a bit, hinting at a battle between bulls and bears. Resistance looks pretty firm around $0.33, with a tougher ceiling up at $0.47. Support’s chillin’ near $0.07.

Nothing’s screaming breakout just yet, but it’s also not collapsing either. Most indicators are neutral, meaning the market could go either way—and traders are being cautious, as they should be.

Exciting news! @chainlink's Cross-Chain Interoperability protocol (CCIP) is now live on Hedera mainnet.

Chainlink (LINK): Not Flashy, but Steady

LINK isn’t lighting up the charts right now, but it’s doing just fine holding its ground. It’s down a little over 1.8% this past month and dipped 3.4% in the last week. But take a step back—it’s up more than 14% over the past six months. So, steady progress.

Price has been bouncing between $11 and $16.83. Support is down around $8.57, while resistance is lurking near $20.13. Notably, RSI is sitting at 43, and the rest of the indicators? Pretty mixed. No clear trend, which honestly fits the whole vibe of this market right now.

Still, for those watching closely, these price levels could offer decent entry points—especially if we see a shift in sentiment or volume.

Final Thoughts

So yeah, despite the noise, both HBAR and LINK are quietly proving they’re not to be counted out. HBAR’s gains are partly tied to its unique partnerships and expanding utility, while LINK continues to shine as the go-to data bridge for smart contracts.

Both tokens are in that sweet spot where patience might pay off. If the market stabilizes—or even flips bullish—don’t be surprised to see these two keep climbing.
