The Most Underrated Asset in Crypto Right Now

June 27, 2025

By Matthew Hayward

Current LINK price: $13.03


Everyone’s Chasing Hype. I’m Watching Chainlink.

In a world where crypto hype is louder than a nightclub at midnight, one project is quietly laying the pipes for the future of finance — and almost no one’s talking about it.

While influencers flood your feed with meme coins, XRP cult jargon, and “top 5 altcoins to buy before Friday,” Chainlink (LINK) is doing something radical:

It’s working.

No BitBoy pump. No delusional army. No sugar-coated nonsense.

Just cold, hard utility.

The Most Underrated Project in Crypto?

Let’s run the checklist:

✅ MasterCard partnership

✅ Powering SWIFT and DTCC pilots

✅ Securing billions in DeFi with oracles

✅ Launching CCIP to bridge traditional finance and Web3

✅ Zero hype, maximal development

While the rest of the market is a casino, Chainlink is the infrastructure behind the scenes. It’s not trying to be flashy. It’s trying to be indispensable.

And it’s succeeding.

Numbers Don’t Lie — But They Whisper

The data paints a picture the price doesn’t:

Monthly active addresses still hover in the thousands, showing continued real usage — not ghost town traffic.

Daily active wallets dropped ~66% from February highs (from 9,400 to 3,200), filtering out short-term speculators.

Yet non-empty wallets just hit an all-time high — nearly 770,000 addresses now hold LINK. That’s ~7,900 new holders this month alone.

In early 2025, whales moved LINK in $100K+ chunks over 1,650 times, the most since December 2023. They aren’t tweeting. They’re accumulating.

The MVRV ratio sits around –15%, placing LINK firmly in the historical “opportunity zone,” where long-term investors quietly load up before the rerate.

All of that? Happening while no one is paying attention.

Narrative Is Lagging Behind Reality

Every cycle has its sleeper pick. In 2017 it was Ethereum. In 2020 it was Solana.

In 2025, it’s Chainlink.

The mainstream hasn’t caught on yet. But when CNBC starts name-dropping LINK because BlackRock, SWIFT, or JPMorgan is using Chainlink CCIP to move trillions across blockchains, it’ll already be up 3–5x.

By the time the masses believe, the price will reflect it.

Final Thought

If you believe crypto’s future lies in real-world adoption — not hype, not speculation, but actual usage — then Chainlink isn’t just a good investment.

It’s the investment.

Not because some influencer said so.

Not because of a flashy chart.

But because the data says so.

And the data doesn’t lie.

When Government Demands Papers We Refuse

 By Matthew Hayward  9/19/2025  The Supreme Court just paused a lower court order that had limited federal immigration stops in Los Angeles. That stay lets federal agents resume roving patrols and interior operations that critics say rely on appearance, language, job, or neighborhood to pick people for questioning.  This matters because it normalizes a posture of suspicion. Checkpoints miles inland and roving patrols turn movement inside the country into a condition to be earned rather than a freedom to be enjoyed. The government already claims expanded authority inside the 100-mile border zone. That claim, plus an open green light for stops based on appearance, is a recipe for arbitrary enforcement.  Philosophy of resistance John Locke told us that the consent of the governed is the foundation of legitimate power. When rulers invade life, liberty, or property, or when they become arbitrary disposers of people’s lives and fortunes, the social compact is dissolve...

The National Guard Was Never Meant to Be a Federal Tool

By Matthew Hayward 7/13/2025 Let me say this clearly: the National Guard was created to defend the states, not to enforce the will of the federal government. It was meant to serve as a local militia—an armed extension of the people under the control of the state. The highest authority a Guard member was ever supposed to answer to is their elected governor, not a bureaucrat in Washington, not a federal agency, and certainly not a sitting president weaponizing military force on domestic soil. Yes, I know the laws have changed. I know the Montgomery Amendment, the National Defense Act, and the Supreme Court's decision in Perpich v. DoD rewrote the rules. But legal doesn’t mean constitutional. Gradualism doesn’t legitimize usurpation. You don’t get to trample foundational principles and call it progress. What’s happening now—federalizing state forces to deploy them in cities without gubernatorial consent—is blasphemous. It's an insult to the very spirit of the Constitution. The ...

Reality Is Rigged and You Can Hack It

By Matthew Hayward 7/29/2025 Manifesting Reality: How the Matrix, Quantum Entanglement, and Consciousness Intertwine Look, science fiction and science fact have been flirting for decades. But lately, the line between the two is starting to disappear. The idea that we’re living in a simulated reality isn’t just a late-night stoner theory anymore. It’s a framework, a lens to view those weird, unexplained moments that leave you thinking, "What the hell just happened?" Quantum entanglement, synchronicity, manifestation… they all start to make a lot more sense when you stop pretending reality is some rigid, mechanical machine. It’s not. It’s code. And if you’re paying attention, you might just figure out how to rewrite it. NPCs vs Manifestors: Who’s Really Running Things? Picture the world like a massive open-world video game. Some people are just running the default programming. They go to work, follow the script, consume what they’re told, and never ask questions. NPCs. Then the...
