Returns: Chainlink vs Gram (prev. Toncoin)

Over the last 12 months LINK returned -34.27% and GRAM -40.81%. Over just the last month the picture is the same: LINK +28.28%, GRAM +20.15%. Short periods can tell a very different story from long ones, which is why picking a coin from last month's chart rarely works.

Risk: which one is the wilder ride?

Chainlink moves about ±2.0% on a typical day against ±1.6% for Gram (prev. Toncoin). In the past year LINK fell as much as 69% from a peak and GRAM 57%. Bigger swings mean bigger possible gains and bigger possible losses, size your position so a fall like that wouldn't force you to sell.

Do they move together?

The correlation of their daily moves over the past year is 0.16 (1 = always together, 0 = unrelated): they move fairly independently. That makes holding both a little less risky than holding either alone.

Size and supply

Chainlink is the bigger network, with a market cap about 2.4× that of Gram (prev. Toncoin). A lower price per coin doesn't make a coin “cheaper”: what matters is market cap, and how many new coins will still be created (LINK: capped at 1.00B; GRAM: no fixed cap).
