The native token of Chainlink LINK$23.44 stalled on Wednesday after a strong start to the week, giving back some of the gains on news about asset manager Grayscale filing to convert its closed-end fund into an exchange-traded fund (ETF).
The token is down about 1% in the past 24 hours in a volatile session, experiencing a 7% price swing, per CoinDesk Research's technical analysis model.
The price action followed Arizona-based real estate and asset manager Caliber's (CWD) Tuesday announcement that it completed its first purchase of LINK tokens, marking the start of its digital asset treasury strategy.
Its stock skyrocketed nearly 2,000% on Tuesday before giving back a bulk of the gains, down another 20% on Wednesday pre-market. The firm didn't disclose the amount of tokens bought.
The move makes Caliber the first Nasdaq-listed firm to adopt a treasury reserve policy focused on LINK. The company said it aims to accumulate LINK over time using existing credit lines, cash reserves and equity-based securities, with plans to stake tokens to generate yield.
