Scrolling through my twitter feed these days I see anecdote after anecdote of the wagie class individual who are valiantly buying Link in an attempt to acquire even 1k linkies. I think back to January 2018 - buying Link for close to ICO price... Did I have any idea at the time it would change my life? No, of course the hopes and dreams were there, but the idea that working class people would be throwing their paychecks into link at $4.50 with no stop loss? Of course this is the outcome I dreamed of, but having lived through the 90% correction of crypto after the dump, I had tempered my expectations with conservative predictions.

It isn't until all of your most temperate expectations are shattered with years of green candles that you start to realize you are in the ground floor - here we are, the Chainlink Network has not even left the audit phase, we aren't even at v. 1.0, and we are looking at a future where Oracle, Google, Swift, and most of DeFi will be staking collateral for smart contracts on Link nodes in the coming years.

XRP was 128b marketcap at the peak of the 2017 bullrun, XRP, as we now know, is a worthless token used solely to provide liquidity for the team by dumping on holders.
