Chainlink (LINK) Order Book Depth
How much LINK is resting in the perpetual-futures order books of Binance and Bybit, side by side: bid and ask USD within ±0.1%, 0.5%, 1% and 2% of mid, the bid/ask imbalance, and what a $100k and a $1M market order would cost in basis points. Live snapshots from the exchanges' public order-book APIs, refreshed every couple of minutes.
LINK is #15 by open interest on Binance ($81.29M) and #17 on Bybit ($28.57M). Within ±2% of mid, Binance holds $10.98M of resting LINK bids and asks against $4.96M on Bybit, 2.2x as deep. A $100k market buy costs 5.6 bps on Binance and 7.5 bps on Bybit; a $1M buy costs 23.7 bps on Binance and 24.0 bps on Bybit.

Live bid/ask imbalance: Binance +12%, bid-heavy within ±1.00% of mid; Bybit +1%, roughly balanced within ±1.00% of mid.
Live cards: up to 500 levels per side on each exchange; snapshot build 14:54 UTC. Bids and asks are USD notionals. Truncated bands are lower bounds; each imbalance uses the range reached on both sides. Stored history below uses separate snapshots and can have a different total or dominant side.

LINK bid/ask ratio and depth history
Stored snapshots: up to 1,000 Binance and 500 Bybit levels per side, pooled in 5-minute buckets. The summary below uses the stored bucket at . Charts load independently and may include a newer bucket or average several buckets. Their bid share uses all visible bids and asks in the requested band, unlike the live cards' symmetric-range imbalance.
LINK's ±1% bid share is 54.8% (imbalance +10%), inside its 7-day range of 42.1% to 60.3% (7-day average 52.8%, 24-hour average 53.2%, z-score +0.8).
Resting within ±1% of mid in the last snapshot: $10.51M, Binance and Bybit combined.

How to read it. Each band row shows the resting bid and ask USD within that distance of the mid price. ≥ $X (truncated) means the exchange's 500 returned levels end inside the band, so the real figure is at least that. Imbalance is (bids − asks) / (bids + asks) within ±1%, or within the range the snapshot reaches on both sides when that is less. Market order rows give the average fill versus mid, in basis points, half-spread included and fees excluded. Depth bands, imbalance and slippage explained.

LINK order book FAQ
How deep is the LINK order book?
The tables show the USD value of resting LINK bids and asks within ±0.1%, 0.5%, 1% and 2% of the mid price on Binance and Bybit, from a live snapshot of each exchange's book. Values marked ≥ (truncated) are lower bounds: the exchange returned its 500 best levels per side and they end inside that band.
How much does a $100k or $1M LINK market order move the price?
We walk the ask side (for a buy) or the bid side (for a sell) from the best price until the order is filled, and compare the average fill with the mid price, in basis points (1 bps = 0.01%). Half the spread is included; fees, hidden orders and the book moving while you trade are not.
What does bid/ask imbalance mean?
(bids - asks) / (bids + asks) within ±1% of mid: positive means more resting buy orders, negative more sell orders. Resting orders can be pulled at any moment, so it is a snapshot of intent, not a signal on its own. If returned levels end inside ±1%, the live imbalance uses the smaller range reached on both sides, shown beside the figure. Nothing here is financial advice.
