Tether vs Chainlink: what the numbers say
At the latest snapshot, 1 USDT = 0.099432 LINK.
By market capitalisation, Tether is the larger network — about 25.9× the size of Chainlink in AUD terms. Larger caps generally mean deeper liquidity on Australian exchanges and tighter spreads, while smaller caps can move more sharply on news or thin order books.
Over the past seven days, USDT is up 1.35% while LINK is down 1.07% — Tether has out-performed by 2.43 percentage points. Short-term percentage moves show momentum but say nothing about long-term value.
