you should start by watching these Videos so you understand what you are getting into:
https://youtu.be/HiuvsLNCg-Y

Your next step after watching the videos should be reading the Chainlink and Avalanche whitepapers.
Then you can set up your account at a centralized exchange (kraken or coinbase or whatever) and then set up your own wallets (metamask or core), you write down the private keys somewhere secure (very important step) and then you marketbuy and withdraw the AVAX from the CEX to your wallet.
once that is finished you head over to a DEX (Trader Joe) and swap some AVAX into LINK.
now you have AVAX and LINK in your wallet that only (You) control.
if you have enough AVAX you can run your own Validator, if not you can delegate it or get it into DeFi, comes out at around 8% APY on the AVAX.

>but what exactly struck you about avalanche and chainlink that you'd look for in other projects for when I do my own research?
Like I said they were already Kingmade by (((them))), all the research for Chainlink and Avalanche comes from IC3, the initative for Cryptocurrency and contracts thats where Ari Juels (Chainlink chief researcher) and Emin Gün Sirer (CEO of Avalanche) come from.
IC3 gets its funding from the US Government, the National Science Foundation (NSF) to be precise.
These guys created the Internet, Google, SaaS and lots of other shit.
Its unlikely that another infrastructure project as important as Chainlink and Avalanche appears anytime soon there but if it does this is the place to look.

Thats where the Avalanche "Team Rocket" Whitepaper dropped first back in 2018.
however the strategy isnt "buying everything they post about", you gotta use your brain too.

also dont just take my word for any of this and Do your own Research.
