Chainlink (LINK) has finally undergone some price weakness after a record-setting rally. The asset plunged 20% in the span of 30 minutes according to data from TradingView.com. The asset moved from just shy of its local highs at around $18.80 to a low of $14.50 in the span of that 30 minutes.

The data suggests that the asset plunged in tandem across all major exchanges, suggesting there was a large liquidation event.

This comes shortly after Placeholder Capital’s Chris Burniske slightly critiqued the project in a Twitter thread:

“More likely that $LINK pumps like mad through this cycle, whales dump towards the end, late-retail gets crushed, and then @chainlink gets replaced by better systems over time. If you decide you don’t like me because I’m not a fan of $LINK’s approach, your choice. I don’t judge peoples’ entire character based on a single asset they choose to (or not to) allocate capital.”
