In the crypto industry, one crypto asset is emerging as the most profitable crypto asset in 2020 for its investors. The name of that crypto asset is LINK.
The detail: ChainLink (LINK) has gained about 451% in 6 months, moving from $2.12 on March 15, 2020, to $9.57 as at the time this report was drafted. This has made it the ninth most valuable crypto asset by market capitalization value of $3.35 billion.
The recent gain in this fast-growing crypto-asset follows a recent pullback after LINK reached the $8.94 price levels near the middle of July.

ChainLink is showing signs of life, while Bitcoin and most of the crypto assets are pulling back lately. One thing to keep an eye on is the trading and social volume in relation to its price direction. An increase appears to be starting, which is correlating with this rise.
