Chainlink has announced Chainlink Rewards Season 1, a new incentive program that will increase the engagement of LINK stakers and Build projects. The program starts on November 11, 2025, marking a significant step from Season Genesis, which enables participants to allocate rewards directly to curated Chainlink Build projects.
We're excited to introduce Chainlink Rewards Season 1—the next evolution of the community engagement & rewards program.https://t.co/xykjgVln57

Season 1 launches November 11, featuring nine Build projects.
— Chainlink (@chainlink) November 3, 2025
Season 1 has nine Chainlink Build projects: Dolomite, Space and Time, XSwap, Brickken, Folks Finance, Mind Network, Suku, Truf Network by Truflation, and bitsCrunch.
In every project, a portion of native tokens will be distributed to qualified LINK stakers through a new system called Cube, which utilizes a non-transferable points mechanism to enhance flexibility and participation.
Cubes are distributed according to a snapshot of staking balances taken on November 3. Between November 11 and December 9, the stakers will have the opportunity to allocate Cubes to their favorite projects using the rewards.chain.link platform.
After the allocation window, the token rewards will be unlocked linearly over 90 days, starting on December 16. Stakers can choose an Early Unlock option, forfeiting a portion of their rewards, which will be reallocated to long-term holders through a Loyalty Pool.
Incentivizing Long-Term Participation
The Season 1 structure aligns the Build initiative of Chainlink with increased community engagement. Build projects also promise a portion of their token pool to incentivize LINK stakers, making the ecosystem’s expansion directly tied to network security and participation.
The projects involved span various fields, including decentralized finance, artificial intelligence, and tokenized real-world assets. Chainlink’s suite of services, including its Cross-Chain Interoperability Protocol (CCIP), Automation, and Data Feeds, provides the infrastructure supporting these initiatives.
Dolomite utilizes Chainlink Automation for adaptive lending models and Space and Time Chainlink Functions for cross-chain secure computations. Brickken utilizes Proof of Reserve to achieve transparency in tokenized asset management, and Mind Network leverages Chainlink’s encrypted data systems to enhance privacy and compliance.
Chainlink Current Market Movement
The news came amidst unstable LINK price behavior. The token fell by more than 8% in less than 24 hours on November 3, widening the market gap, to a low of $16.10. However, analysts indicated possible accumulation areas around $15.
Market strategist Ali Martinez proposed that the existing range of LINK may be described as a “golden buy zone” within a multi-year symmetrical triangle formation that began in 2022. In his projection, he suggested that there was a possibility of an outburst reaching $100 if resistance levels are breached.

Barber labeled the existing declines as “temporary fear-driven pressure” before a possible momentum recovery.
