Chainlink Price Prediction: Will Coinbase’s Tokenized Stocks Send LINK to $15?

• LINK trades at $11.793 on August 25, up 1.43%, holding above $11 after last week’s breakout
• Weekly LINK ETF inflows hit $13.35M last week, the best week of 2026
• Coinbase’s tokenized US stocks went live on Base using Chainlink price feeds

The LINK price prediction stays bullish after price broke out sharply last week and is now holding the bulk of those gains, backed by a record week of ETF inflows and a fresh integration putting Chainlink’s price feeds behind Coinbase’s newly launched tokenized stocks.

Chainlink Price Analysis: Will LINK Price Go Up After Reclaiming $11?

LINK broke out sharply last week, surging from around $9.50 to a high of $12.50 before settling into a consolidation range between $11 and $12. Price is now trading at $11.793, up 1.43%, holding well above the weekly Bull Market Support Band at $8.855 to $9.234, a zone that has repeatedly acted as support through the year’s downtrend.

The breakout carried LINK back above all four EMAs, with the 20-day at $10.141 now the nearest support, followed by the 50-day at $9.219, the 100-day at $8.973, and the 200-day far below at $9.661. A resistance zone near $12.50 marks the top of last week’s spike and the next hurdle for continuation. A dotted descending trendline running from February’s high still looms overhead in the $13 to $14 range, marking the larger structural resistance LINK would need to clear for a bigger trend change.

Chainlink News: Coinbase’s Tokenized Stocks Launch on Base With Chainlink Price Feeds

Coinbase’s tokenized US stocks went live on Base on August 25, bringing names including Apple, Nvidia, Meta, and Alphabet on-chain for eligible non-US users to trade around the clock. Chainlink Data Feeds provide the continuous pricing behind these tokens, allowing DeFi protocols to plug them into lending markets, decentralized exchanges, and structured products, including as collateral for borrowing.

How the Tokenized Stocks Actually Work

The tokens, issued as B20 assets natively on Base, each represent a direct claim on an underlying share held with regulated broker and custodian Alpaca, under an Abu Dhabi Global Market supervised structure. They can be held in self-custody wallets and traded continuously, unlike traditional stock markets.

Base said more Coinbase tokenized stocks are expected to launch in the coming weeks, pointing to specific use cases already taking shape:

• Posting tokenized Nvidia shares as collateral on Aave
• Supplying tokenized Apple shares to decentralized exchanges

The Broader Tokenized Equities Market

The launch comes as the broader tokenized equities market keeps growing, with total value reaching about $2.48 billion, up 5.2% over the past 30 days, and monthly transfer volume climbing to $27.28 billion across more than 2.1 million holders, according to RWA.xyz data.

Chainlink News: CCIP Attracts $15B in Migrating Tokenized Assets

Analyst Dami-Defi said Chainlink’s Cross-Chain Interoperability Protocol, or CCIP, has now attracted $15 billion in migrating tokenized assets from firms including BitGo, Kraken, Mantle, Lombard, and KelpDAO. 

Dami-Defi pointed to Wyoming’s FRNT stablecoin fully migrating to CCIP as its exclusive cross-chain infrastructure as a bigger signal, arguing this positions CCIP as more than a bridge and increasingly as core infrastructure for institutions moving significant value onchain.

Chainlink News: LINK ETFs Post Best Week of 2026

LINK ETFs pulled in $13.35M for the week ending August 21, the strongest week of 2026 and the best since the week of December 5, 2025, shortly after the funds first launched according to SoSoValue. This week has started on a positive note too, with $2.68M in net inflows on August 24 alone, though a full week of trading still remains.

Daily inflows have picked up noticeably since mid-August, climbing from smaller, inconsistent amounts earlier in the summer to a run of larger daily additions through the past two weeks. Cumulative net inflow across all LINK ETFs now stands at $145.39M, with total net assets reaching $172.95M.

LINK Price Prediction: Upside and Downside Targets

Bullish Case, Target: $13 to $14 (Descending Trendline)

LINK holds above $11 support and this week’s positive ETF inflow start builds into another strong weekly total. Continued momentum from the Coinbase tokenized stocks integration and growing CCIP adoption reinforce the fundamental case, while price pushes back toward last week’s $12.50 high. Clearing that level would open the path toward the descending trendline resistance in the $13 to $14 zone.

Bearish Case, Risk Level: $10.141 (20-day EMA)

LINK fails to hold the $11 to $11.50 zone and last week’s breakout starts giving back gains as profit taking sets in. ETF inflows cool off after last week’s record pace, and price falls back through the 20-day EMA at $10.141, testing whether the breakout can hold as a higher low or gives way to a deeper retracement toward the Bull Market Support Band near $9.234.

Conclusion

LINK’s fundamentals this week are stacking up in a way that’s harder to dismiss as narrative alone: record ETF inflows, a live Coinbase integration processing real tokenized equities, and $15 billion in institutional assets choosing CCIP as their cross-chain infrastructure are all independently verifiable, not just sentiment. 

The chart still has to confirm it, though. Last week’s breakout from $9.50 to $12.50 was sharp enough that some consolidation was expected, and $11 is the level that separates healthy digestion from the start of a deeper pullback.
