after 5 years of holding and 5 years of serious consideration, i have decided to today sell all of my chainlink. this token is just not for me. it's been a good time but part of growing up is realizing that this project just isn't for you either.

I feel like we're being tested.
The universe is trying to break us, and the rewards for staying strong and holding will be incredible

I mean, holy fucking shit

I am literally shaking in anticipation of number go up. It's that easygoing calm before the storm, just enjoying every moment of life, visualizing the heights we are bound to achieve. Thank you team, it's truly exciting to witness the new world being built, to watch the rumors all come true, and to be able to play a small part in this new /virtuouscycle/.

I hold literally 0 btc. Just saying, you're wrong. Btc is the new gold, just a little bit more useless, but way more scarce.

OG LINK Marine here, been here since the beginning. Not gonna lie this crash really has me on the fence about my investment. Should I dump or continue to HODL? Could go either way on this one...

Pic rel is all you need. The rest is meme garbage. Chainlink is the key to the 4th industrial revolution.

API providers ARE NOT YOUR FRIENDS. Take a minute to browse a few dozen pricing pages. Most run on a Freemium model, and once you get over the free calls at any real scale, you’re a goddamn guppy in shark waters.

They’re essentially built on exploiting entrepreneurs – specifically, app developers. They give hungry young guns a difficult choice: you can pay a lower per-month fee and higher per-call rates, or you can pay an exorbitant monthly fee with low per-call rates. This sounds like simple business practices until you actually look at the damn ratios: per-call between the basic and premium plans routinely range between 4-10x, and I’ve seen as high as 20x. They have their high-volume clients, but they mostly have young dudes trying to get something started, and they shake those guys DOWN.

And once you go over your monthly allotment? Then they come for your blood. “Oh, you didn’t anticipate these charges? But it’s all in your contract. Perhaps you would like to upgrade?” It’s like selling you a lemon because they know you’re going to buy a real car later.

THEN you add in the SLAs. Uptime guarantees are only given to premium subscriptions. You know what a functioning node needs? Uptime guarantees. Now, I’m not saying that they PURPOSEFULLY hit lower subscription tiers with downtime, but you know what’s a highly unregulated industry? APIs. Nodes NEED to negotiate their own rate with an uptime SLA, or they’re screwed.

When I’m working on my smart contract projects, I spend most of my time trying to get these fucks to give me a pricing model that won’t make me bleed from the goddamn eyes. “Data is the new oil” – goddamn right, and these fuckers are TYCOONS. Don’t fuck with API providers.

But the predatory pricing isn’t even the worst part.
