Grayscale’s Chainlink Trust (GLNK) shares are trading at a substantial premium of over 200% compared to the spot price of Chainlink’s LINK token.
Grayscale’s data shows that GLNK shares are trading at $39, while the LINK token’s market value is $12.51 as of press time. This means that the value of GLNK is three times higher than the underlying assets it holds.
Chainlink community ambassador ChainLinkGod first reported the surge in this premium on the social media platform X.
The chart below shows that the LINK and GLNK had traded almost at par earlier in the year before a premium difference emerged between the two assets in March.

Data from Tradingview also shows that GLNK has maintained strong price performance throughout the year, rising by over 250% in the last six months and nearly 540% year-to-date.

Grayscale introduced its Chainlink Trust in May 2022 as a regulated product, providing U.S. investors with exposure to LINK. Since then, the product has attracted considerable interest, with total assets under management currently valued at $3.9 million.
However, like other Grayscale Trusts, GLNK shares are not redeemable for the underlying asset they track. This means investors can only exit their positions by selling the shares to another party.
Meanwhile, LINK is also experiencing a positive rally, reaching a yearly high of $12.65 on Nov. 6 before retracing to its current levels.
