I never left, didn't read, and am not selling... but I am going to bed right now, so thank you for thinking about me while I and the rest of we linkmarines as we live in your head rent free, and goodnight.

>t. the real linkjesus

Pundits claim that the United States Dollar will collapse in earnest on this date; let us discuss why this shall (or shall not) happen, and how we may profit from (and escape the worst of) this financial catastrophe as it unfolds across the world.
>inb4 fud
Maybe; however: the global economy is a metaphorical house of cards, as is readily apparent or inescapably obvious, depending on how deeply you research.
>inb4 someone else will continue to kick to proverbial can further down the street in order to maintain status quo
They've been doing this for, well, decades. At some point, the can becomes fundamentally un-kickable; what happens when the can cannot be kicked?
>serious question
We've got a lot of crazy shit in store for next year, like the goddamned Cryptocurrency Act of 2020 fucking with our, the introduction of *negative* interest rates on "savings" accounts
So, what do we do? I'm *this* close to liquidating one of my two suicide stacks while the getting's still good (and legal) in order to leverage a long position on fungible assets useful in a serious economic depression (perhaps some real estate for a modest homestead, a live-in van, or a sailboat to live aboard as a sea-steader -- I have real experience with all three, and am aware of the hidden costs)… but I seriously believe that *our* token will be just about the best vehicle by which to protect wealth against the collapse of fiat currency et al.

>odds of google buying out smartcontract.com/chainlink = x

x<1:1; however: x>0:1;
x~=1/2:1 because:
>google's collective hive intelligence is sufficiently like ours in order to recognize the nigh unimaginably high eventual value of this fresh but promising new system, which is currently trading below 0.01% of this presumably inevitable price, and can be bought *now* for a very reasonable price instead of a few years later for a total cost of about a quarter of the entire world's money (plus or minus one-eighth);
>our gestalt decentralized hypergeist is similar enough to google's for (((their's))) to also comprehend that -- especially now, after certain pivotal points have been achieved, course maintained and the network opening up like a fucking rose blossom -- chainlink is as guaranteed of being *the* default, de jure & de facto oracle solution for fucking *everything* that needs oracles solved (derivatives market especially) because of the way which the project has progressed... google has carefully watched this and other projects, weighing odds intelligently, learning what fails and what succeeds; although it would have been premature to buy earlier, it's now such a sure thing in the eyes of any keyed in hivemind that that only an uninformed innocent or knowing idiot would not be buying at these prices right now;
>seriously: google has seen the project pass the 97.% probability percentile in global adoption, has watched any other pretenders, would-be contenders, and ersatz "competitors"
amount to no threat whatsoever to what chainlink is blossoming into, witnessed the fud blown to dust, the alternatives rust, and the fundamentals robust, just like i bust, fly must by trust plied gust whose gales blow sails on my moonbound yacht
>extemporaneous apropos freestyling aside, it's pretty fucking obvious that google sees what we see, which are guaranteed moon tickets to some, but to others, certificates of hegemonic dominion over the world and all nolinkers
