#以太坊大户持仓变化 On-Chain Oracle Infrastructure Leader LINK's Spot ETF Receives SEC Approval and Will Soon Be Listed on NYSE, Marking Another Mainstream Entry of Alternative Tokens into Traditional Finance Following Ethereum ETF. The exact listing date has not yet been announced, but the signaling significance is self-evident.

How critical is CHAINLINK's position in the DeFi ecosystem? Almost all mainstream protocols' off-chain data feeds rely on it. Now that the ETF channel is open, what does it mean? Institutional investors can openly allocate LINK positions, representing a huge potential capital inflow.

The most interesting aspect is the market reaction. LINK rose 0.71% today, quoted at $13.87, which isn't a large increase. What does this indicate? Either the market had already anticipated this positive news, or it is still digesting what it means. From a technical perspective, if the oracle sector continues to gain policy recognition, other DeFi protocols within the ecosystem are likely to follow the same path.

Deeper logic suggests that regulatory frameworks are gradually becoming clearer. Where does the confidence for leading asset management institutions to launch meme coin ETFs come from? It stems from increased confidence in compliance pathways. Once DeFi tokens enter mainstream fund portfolios through the ETF compliance channel, the valuation and pricing center of the entire industry could be re-anchored. This is not just a product launch but a signal of accelerated acceptance of traditional finance and on-chain assets.

Wait, LINK only increased by 0.71%? Is this good news being so restrained? It feels like the market has already digested it... Or maybe the big players are quietly positioning themselves, waiting for institutions to really step in before making a move?

LINK's ETF approval is indeed a signal, but the price increase is disappointing; the market has already fully digested it. Institutions are really willing to bet on DeFi; once the compliance channels open, they can't stop. Let's wait and see when other oracle projects will follow suit; this track is about to take off.

Link only increased by 0.71%？Is that what you call good news landing? Feels like it's been overhyped for a while. If institutions really come in, they might push the price up, but now might be a bit late to enter. Now we're just waiting to see when other DeFi tokens will also launch ETFs—that will be the real celebration. Honestly, oracles are a good niche to position in, but the price of LINK really isn't attractive anymore. So the actual capital inflow might not be into LINK, but into those top protocols that haven't launched ETFs yet.

0.71% increase? Laughable, that's because the market has already digested it long ago, institutions quietly accumulated and are now waiting for the official listing. LINK really does choke the neck, but the ones who truly make money are always those who know the news first. Retail investors like us are always late to the game. Compliance, on the surface, sounds like a clear framework, but honestly, it's just a new excuse to cut the leeks one after another. It's true that the oracle track has policy approval, but do you believe the next hot track will be something else? This cycle is growing faster than the leeks. Institutions daring to push meme coin ETFs are just betting that we all have to get in. The way to enter has changed, and so must the way to profit.

0.71% increase? Is that a positive sign? I think the MACD hasn't even had a golden cross yet; it's already been absorbed by institutional players.

LINK is back again. The approval of this ETF really sends a strong signal. The 0.71% increase is a bit disappointing; I need to see whether institutions haven't reacted yet or if they've been prepared all along. But thinking carefully, if the oracle track is truly recognized by regulators, there will definitely be a flood of follow-up projects. I'm just worried it might be another prelude to cutting leeks, with the same old tricks. Let's wait until the official listing day to discuss further; it's a bit early to talk now.

LINK this wave of ETF really just like that, a 0.71% increase—what does it say? Either everyone has already seen through it, or there's simply no real expectation. The stories of institutional entry are all getting tired. Wait, does the oracle track really have policy approval? It feels like the SEC just opened a door, but will it fluctuate again later? Who can say for sure. DeFi tokens entering fund investment portfolios sound impressive, but in reality? It's just a new trick for institutions to raise money. The industry's valuation center is anchored... Can we stop hyping it up? Let's just stabilize and avoid going to zero first.
