Besides demand from companies, I would also like to include that with the high volume of requests comes the fees that node operators would profit from. What does that imply? Again, this whole explanation comes from the assumption that the network is actually being used. It means that node operators are profiting from their nodes, and judging from this part in the whitepaper talking about reputation metrics, specifically "Amount of penalty payments" (page 18 under 5.2 Reputation System), it means that the amount of LINK you hold will affect your reputation. If being a node operator turns out to be massively profitable, it makes sense to assume that people would be scrambling to become a node operator, and in the process buying LINK to increase their reputation. I think this is the part where all the talk about collateral comes in, where only whales with massive stacks of LINK would be the only ones taking in high value contracts (high value as in the amount of fiat being handled in the contract and high value as in the amount of fees it will pay).
I would like to note that there are 350M tokens in reserve for node operators so the second point will not be as relevant as the first but at least it's safe to assume (definitely could be wrong) that the tokens won't simply be dumped because they need to be staked. Maybe there would be a smart contract that would require the LINK to be staked at least a year before it can be sold or some shit. I don't know.

Does anyone have access to CL Slack? I can't be arsed to make an account. I'm currently in their telegram and I'm planning on making an archive of shit that gets asked so that if anyone has the same problem it'll be easy to solve, instead of a situation where there's horde of retards (me included) waiting for Thomas to answer

I love seeing how many newfags expose themselves responding to these two pasta posts, even though thay are posted all the time. Especially since I created the "that's cute" one. Little hint: it really WAS one person posting that one for a looong time...

It's funny but no matter how many times I see this and nothing happens, each new time I see it I feel a sense of hope that maybe this time it really will be different

how many of these shitty threads do we need?

literally 10 times a day someone makes a thread like 'I'm actually thinking of unironically buying link' as if it's an original thing to say

this whole 'link is secretly a meme' meme is itself an old meme. Stop making threads along these lines and if you are genuinely unsure if it is just a meme simply do your own research and decide for yourself

SHIT THREAD OP
