What this page shows
The Chainlink price from January 2019 to today, broken down by month and year, alongside the live price from exchanges right now. The chart is built from monthly closes, so it shows the shape of the move rather than the noise inside a week.
The history in numbers
Across 7 years of observations Chainlink has ranged from $0.3504 (its low, January 2019) to $53.00 (its high, May 2021). It currently sits 40× above that low.
The best full year was 2020 at +536%; the worst was 2022 at −71.4%. Of 6 complete years, 4 closed higher and 2 closed lower.
The current year stands at +14.1% so far, ranging from $7.00 to $14.40.
Historical patterns
Of 91 closed months, 47 finished higher and 44 finished lower — 52% of months up. The average month returned +9.0%.
The strongest month on record was June 2019 at +233%; the weakest was March 2020 at −44.2%.
The deepest drawdown on monthly closes was −85.4%: from the peak in April 2021 to the trough in December 2022, 20 months of decline.
65 months have passed since the all-time-high month on a closing basis.
Month-of-year seasonality
The strongest month on average has been January at +26.3% across 7 observations, 5 of them positive. The weakest has been December at −12.7% across 7 observations, 2 positive.
We print the observation count beside every percentage on purpose. 7 observations is 7 observations, and on a sample that size a pattern cannot be told apart from a coincidence. Interesting to look at; not something to build a plan on.
