When prices dip below critical level, buyers immediately move to save the day. In this scenario, a breach of the $6 level would be a big achievement, especially in ushering the new year. But, LINK is expected to shoot up higher. Michaël Van De Poppe, a crypto expert, expects LINK to move into the bullish territory by 2023. In detail, he expects the crypto to hit $17 if the bulls reach a resistance level of $7.80. On the other hand, the crypto analyst says that Chainlink can drop and warm up below $5 before it pumps up in price. Chart: TradingView As of press time, LINK has been consolidating between $6 and $8. Considering this, any breach below this range could pull LINK further down. Predictably, bulls will take over once the digital asset breaches this low range.
