okay, so this is a cool new tech

but it's still contingent on governments creating the legal framework and regulators writing laws to government smart contracts to ~really~ take off

so investing in linkies is basically speculating on popular adoption of this tech?

thing is i still don't see the middleman going away anytime soon.

why assume the end to end users are good actors?

imagine if you okayed a transaction, like you bought a pokeman card and it turned out to be a fake, there's no recourse because none of these transactions are protected by a legal framework & laws.

with the middleman at least you could sue. or they sue on your behalf. there is a possibility of recourse.

so even if the 3 layers exist, there would still need the 4th layer of legitimate legal protection in order to solidify consumer confidence.

am i wrong in this? or did i miss something important?

i suppose the penalty/collateral costs are there, but that shit don't matter once you okayed the transaction?

>> No.12545400

>>12545369
well thats the whole point of collaterals, I dont think we will completely remove human interaction, even though with AI you could solve that kind of issue? tom gonser hinted at smart contracts becoming more and more intelligent or smart in the future, but thats not what chainlink is all about. chainlink is just the protocol that smart contracts will use to retrieve data or to do computation. the relevance of smart contracts on the legal matter is a completely different subjject. and actually there was a panel I invite you to watch, called are we getting rid of lawyers.

Let's say I wrote a smart contract for buying söy futures, or a gambling smart contract that pays out depending on the outcome of an event like a presidential election or a UFC fight. Smart contracts are open source, so the website/server/data source I will be depending on to settle the smart contract will be public knowledge. If someone wanted to game said smart contract, all they would have to do is hack/manipulate the source of information I am using. This isn't a huge problem now but when smart contracts become more commonplace the gaming of real world information will become a much more attractive way to cheat smart contracts. The solution to this is the chainlink blockchain, which creates a decentralized consensus about real world events that cannot be gamed and smart contracts can rely on to give them reliable information. Since this is a solution to a problem that doesn't really exist yet, there is no guarantee that chainlink will be a successful project down the line, considering that it could be replaced by a more successful network or be ruled entirely obsolete by a dApp or some other oracle problem fix. However, chainlink has one of the most active github repositories I have ever seen and really has the number of contributions that you would see in a top 20 or top 10 project. Plus, chainlink has the advantage of being a 4chan meme, guaranteeing that it becomes a cultural staple and that newfags will be continually exposed to it. If it is still around in a few years I could see it realistically being in the top 5.

Um, you should reread his post. It’s not fud, what he’s saying is a bullish case for chainlink. The “‘‘this is a solution to s problem that doesn’t exist yet” is an interesting thought, that the real use case of chainlink is to decentralize the data source. Although I have to disagree on that because it would solve a RIGHT NOW problem, at least, of securing the oracle. I think he’s envisioning a wider network of competing data providers in the future. Until then, we will have limited ability to decentralize data sources

Not true and this shows you haven’t ‘really’ done your research and just repeat the buzzwords. Exchanges could easily sign their api’s with ethereum private keys along with using whitelisting. BLS signatures could also aggregate oracles’ signed messages.
