Chainlink has significantly increased its reserve holdings, adding 125,454 LINK today, bringing the total reserve to 1,899,670 LINK. This follows previous additions of 99,103 LINK on January 29, 2026, and 84,309 LINK in mid-December 2025. The growing reserve size reflects a clear trend of increasing absorption, with recent additions representing approximately 0.02% of the circulating supply of 587 million LINK.
The rise in reserve accumulation is attributed to increased real usage revenue from Chainlink's services, including data feeds, automation, and cross-chain interoperability protocols. The shift from proof-of-concept to long-term enterprise contracts has led to revenue being settled in larger batches, contributing to the reserve growth. Additionally, the expansion of services has increased LINK consumption per customer, and some payments are now settled in LINK, further reducing the circulating supply. This structural absorption of LINK is not expected to impact prices in the short term but indicates a clear trend of supply reduction.
