Worth what? What better alternative do you have for your money?

>>19651431
Fed interest rate is zero, you do the math niggah.

>>19651454
I dont know anon I just don’t know. It seems like nothing really has the same upside potential as LINK, which makes me even more depressed knowing what could have been. Seems like every settlement layer is now reliant on it...

>>19651431
Yeah. Sure. That 3400 link might be 50k-100k in 2 years. Don't compare your stacks to the smug faggots on here.

/biz used to have some good discussions on link back in 2018' now these nerds made money and have changed for the worst. DYOR on the project. Buy what you can. Fuck anyone who tells you otherwise.

>>19651481
You do know a good portion of those are larps right? No one ever posts their real stacks.

>>19651476
Then buy, you've got to invest every day as if it was your first day investing in anything.
Don't blame yourself for not having been able to read the future 2 years ago and do what is best today.

Keep in mind tho that we are near ath and it's not the best price to FOMO in, I wouldn't put all my money I to it if I were you.

>>19651431
buy 1 link

>>19651503
What do you think most stack sizes are? Do you think 3400 is a big enough stack? It seems like most have 10k+

>>19651431
Wow tay is so perfect

>>19651431
LOL
You are unironically me anon
I could have written the exact same text with the exact same fucking numbers and the exact same time standing on the sidelines.
However I finally pulled the trigger a few weeks ago and went All in.
Can not see my /biz/ friends become the new wealthy elite while I am the eternal slave.
Buy in now and be happy with one tenth of what you could have had.
In a year you might only be able to afford 250 LINK
Just don't think about what could have been.
3400 LINK is still a good stack
Not billionaire status, but a good stack

>>19651503
Some are legit. The project was cheap for a very long time.

>>19651533
It’s tough man. It’s hard because I was on this board for most of that time and remember seeing countless “buy LINK” threads. I think I’m going to take your advice and just swallow the pill and get my 3400. Thanks anon

>>19651503
This, never forget that only 1k is top 10% holder, I doubt that the average /biz/tard hold much more than that. Some are legit whales of course, like this Jacob dude who made link do a 20% pump by himself back in the days, but these are the minority

>>19651526
Yeah and most /fit/izens are 6'4 and bench press 4 plates.

>>19651573
What do you think qualifies you as whale status? Top 1000 wallet?

>>19651526
It puts you at like top 10% wallet via eitherscan. Dunno about the real size though but you’re fairly early. Some people said they have multiple wallets you can either believe em or not. Here an old pic, i don’t think we’ve deviated that much from it.

>imagine taking people seriously here.

Also you may have to wait for the next bull cycle to finally make it.

>>19651431
Invest that in Buidl. It’s going to become the next chainlink. You can 10x instead of just 2-3x with chainlink at this point

>>19651431
Theres hardly any upside left. Better off putting money on a sure bet. Link is too risky and ultimately if a whale dumps there not enough liquidity to even cash out

Its going to 10 cents ironically

>>19651606
They say only a summer spent in Guatemala picking beans can give you that sort of insight.

>>19651566
>just swallow the pill
That's the only thing you can do. I was even here reading Assblaster posts back in the day. But you know, everything crashed in 2018 and I was busy, so I didn't really do much research myself.
I didn't see the vision that Sergey had.
I just thought it may be another shitcoin which might fail eventually.
Then it was around 50 cents forever.
And all of a sudden there was the Google pump and I thought "I am priced out now anyway"
It was the 42 pill and some research after that, when I realized, that I should not be a retard again and take my chance.
I bought two weeks before the Corona dump, which was even worse. I could have had cheaper LINK before and afterwards. Yeat, the retarded cuck I am, I chose the worst possible moment.
Anyway, this shitcoin will go to $1000 and beyond and frankly I don't care anymore.
At least I am on board now. It actaully made me look forward to things and made me happier as well, being a LINK cultist

>>19651534
There legit people, i believe it. I know some people have 150k around here, but they’re just waiting, some still posts on good breadcrumv but those people have diamond hands.

>>19651610
I don’t think there is a “next Chainlink” though anon. I realize what I missed out on now, I did the research final after 2 years. This is why I am depressed. I realize what the protocol actually is and what I actually missed out on.

>>19651593
Who cares that's just a question of point of view. 10 years from now holding 100 linkies might make you a whale. Or maybe that holding 100k linkies will make you a retard because it would have failed for a reason or another, we don't know.
For what it's worth I do think that 3k is a very respectable amount to have right now

I feel shitty enough for only finding it in June 2019. I dont know how I'd feel if I had the chance to buy under a dollar and didnt.

>>19651628
There will be disruptive competition to oracle market that will take links markey share and perhaps even crush them https://www.coindesk.com/sequoia-backed-band-protocol-creeps-onto-chainlinks-turf-with-oracle-product

>>19651650
I saw it under $0.3 and didn’t buy. Fuck my life right?

>>19651652
Toilet Witch propaganda, nothing more.

>>19651652
Kek nigga i ppsted that band shit. The CEO actually participated in the LINK ICO. He going to be eaten alive by sergey.

>>19651639
>I don’t think there is a “next Chainlink” though anon
Please tell me youre joking. Bitcoin and ether both were born in the same time period. There are many more moon shots. Not to mention link is up 20x not 10000x like bitcoin

>>19651637
Thanks for these words anon, they help more than you know.

>>19651592
The real /fit/izens do and they left a while ago

>>19651677
Nothing has the same tokenomics though. At this point, you can either invest in individual settlement layers or the middleware they are all reliant on. Took me 3 years to realize this sadly.

>>19651655
Jsut buy LINK niggah, the space needs it or it going to die. DeFi will fail if LINK does not succeed.

>>19651655
We all make mistakes bro. I could have went all in under $2, secured a stack close to 10k but I didn't. I still have a decent stack from dcaing. Hindsight is 2020. I'm in the process of going all in now.

>>19651691
I miss scooby and zyzz is dead...

>>19651652
I’m an idiot for missing LINK. I’d be a retard to fall for this obvious knockoff. Let me just be an idiot in peace.

>>19651655
Stop blaming yourself anon
Your selfhatred is coming from thr greed you feel
And greed is a sin
So stop it.
You know the potential at this point. And you also know that there is a huge upside left.
What you are complaining about here is that you won't have $40 million, but only $3.5 Million (on the low end btw)
With $3.5 million you are way ahead of every Normie out there. That is like the anual salary of many people times 35. Just for buying s meme.
You still can be happy.

>>19651699
The tokenomics are solely speculative and broken . Im sorry but until they solve striking, staking, weighted oracles, its simple a replaceable middleware . Link token had almost no use to most people

>>19651711
Honestly dude if you hold, it will prob be like having 3000 BTC now. Settlement layers like ethereum can be replicated for their functionality. The oracle network that LINK built can’t, and all these small oracles that are 10 years behind chainlink will be gobbled up and added as node operators.

>>19651712
It became filled with homos and dyle faggots. Better to let it sink into the depths of irrelevancy then continue as such a mess.

>>19651728
Nice fud

>>19651728
Seeing as they are working with Oracle, Google, EY, Baseline Protocol, TaoBao, etc, id be willing to bet they figure these things out. The depressing thing for me is the recognition that the space as a whole needs Chainlink to succeed now. I always thought Ethereum or Tezos would just make their own oracle but it’s evident they are all just going to “bend the knee” as they say.

>>19651743
I also realize this now, took me 3 fucking years to figure it out but I finally did. Market is saturated with settlement layers, there’s only one agnostic middleware that connects them to the real world. I’m a fool for not doing my own research.

>>19651758
Tezos bent the knee a month ago.

Link is without a doubt The number one best chance any of us have at success in this market. Put a bunch in and sit back. You'll be glad of it. If it's slightly successful, then fine. No harm done. Give it a few years. Chainlink is the most open secret there ever was. Seize the day.

>>19651782
I know. This was one of the final straws for me. I always thought Ethereum and Tezos would just make their own oracles. Tezos says they’re making OrO and fucking 4 days later announce they are bending the knee for LINK.

>>19651431
buying link at 4.43$ is like buying eth at 15 dollars thats not fucking bad perspective niggas have it.Eth like pump will put us close to 400 to 500$ range. Add the staking and scarcity locked up tokens and 1000$ is not a fantasy.

>>19651772
Dude i wouldn’t even be mad, you’re still early in the game, you’re not early early but you’re still very early.

Be happy that you were able to realize this now and not 2 years down the line when you could prob only afford 100-200.

>>19651758
Ok have fun anon . dont say i didnt warn you. Very clearly Over Bought

>>19651758
you’re talking so confident about link even though you don’t have any, and this made me believe in link more. thank you based op, buy as much as you can and join the ranks

>>19651566
Do it anon, it will set you free.

>>19651820
Yes we all here you, now leave this thread ranjeet.

>>19651823
I didn’t believe in it for the longest time. I finally sat down and for 3 weeks researched it non stop. I’m still figuring shit out every day. Some anon told me I would be “going down the rabbit hole” with this one and he was right. It seems like this project has direct/indirect ties to everyone.

>>19651830
Love this picture. I want to be set free anon.

>>19651812
Were going higher, google and amazon have .75B and .5B shares outstanding. Price is $1400 and $2.7k for each.

Staking tokens severely reduce the circulating supply, 85% tezos is currently stake on a fully diluted link token it means 150M tokens for the mass, undiluted 52.5 million.

No one on /biz/ has 40k stacks that's almost $200k you fuckin retard

>>19652134

>>19651431
>>19651431
No matter how bad you feel OP just remember some retarded accidentally paid $1000 USD per LINK in the LINK/PAX pairing and wasted thousands of dollars.

Just buy what you can and hold for the next 5 to 10 years. Remember the guy who traded 10,000 BTC for 2 Papa John's pizzas? Those have a 90 Million valuation now. 1000 LINK will be worth millions if you have the vigilance to hold long enough.

>>19651503
There's plenty of people with large stacks. It literally hovered at .30-40 for months and .80 or below for basically a year. During that time it was still the most talked about crypto on this board. I was buy $100 worth a week for the entire year and was all in starting with everything I had in crypto starting January 2018. I know for a fact that a ton of people who had a fuck ton of link then. And this was just coming off the first bullrun. Even though it crashed there were plenty of people who made a lot in 2017. There's definitely 100k stacks here. There's a MINIMUM 500 people here who have 10k+

>>19651431
I'm a nurse on 1500 a month. No savings really. Fortunately I still have a job after this corona virus shit storm. I'm going to invest my measly £3k savings into this in the hope it turns to 6k never mind becoming a millionaire. If it goes up 100 quid its better than the bank its been in. Can you tell im new to investing? :D

>>19652381
Think about it literally where else on the internet does anyone talk about this shit. Next to no buzz on reddit because of a dedicated FUD campaign, took until around January - March 2019 for even link shill twitter accounts to start popping up. Then take a look at how many wallets actually have 10k link. You know how many of them have to /biz/?? No one was buying this shit anywhere. You don't think people didn't have $3000-$5000 lying around after 2017 bull run to buy 10k???

They aren't larps. There are serious stacks on /biz/

>>19652381

Yes I'd say hundreds of people have somewhere between 10K to 20K. Once you start getting past the 20K mark I think it decreases massively but I believe people when they say they have it. People made a fuck ton of money last bullrun and a well timed 10K to 15K USD could have easily bought 30K to 50K LINK. Especially if you got in the ICO.

>>19651606
What the fuck? No. I don't believe this, only 10k people have over 1,000 LINK?

>>19651573
I remember this Jacob dude. It was an evening in early 2018 and he made me fomo into Link and I sold all my XLM, they were roughly worth the same back then, about 1 dollar. Looking back now makes me feel so lucky. Thanks, Jacob

>>19653011
Probably not even. Most likely one person with multiple wallets honestly. Honestly how many people do you really think come to /biz? Literally no one else knows about the project, its reality man. It take $4,300 to buy 1000 LINK most people don't have $1000 for emergencies let alone willing to risk on obscure middleware projects. Even if someone was dollar cost averaging into 1000 LINK over the past year they would be lucky to have a $2.00 basis average. They don't have 5% of the accumulated knowledge surrounding the project that people have learned from lurking here. I know it seems hard to believe at first.

It's risky but I'd wait till end of July to buy in. Most major corps will have Q2 earnings calls end of July. Robinhood normies don't realise how bad FAANG and TSLA has it now, the Q1 results where still non-covid. The retail propped up stock market is gonna get fucked, the panic will slide down BTC and in turn link, because there's still parity to king shitcoin. Do what you will with this information, I have no horse in the game.

>.t posted in OG AB threads about link

>>19653361
I'll take my chances with staking on the horizon

Really guys?
Back in time „LOL buy/sell 100k“ was taken literally buy biz bros.
I hold 110k link and gamble 70k away with shit like Btcp/vet/Bancor (fuck reed/galia/sunny. Praise Sergey)... 40k left in ledger and never sell, never put it in an exchange till staking push us to triple digits

>>19652134
Fuck off.

>>19653201
How many linkies you got now?

Lol dont listen to these guys. They are the people making a grip of money selling link at mid $4 only to buy again at under $3. Lol at them telling you to buy and hold for "3-4" years because you'll be "rich". I admit it sounds so fucking believable.

They're trying to sell you their bags so they can buy back in at 2.50 hoping to rinse and repeat the sell at near all time high which is close to current price. Good fucking luck. Given enough time this shit is going to crash and burn. Thank me nubs for giving you tips and for the others, hate me for rating your asses out.

I'm waiting to buy again at the inevitable 1.90. Lol

>>19653887

Your English is terrible. He should at least be dollar cost averaging into his holdings if not just a lump sum purchase. Sure plenty of money can be made swinging, but you can also get left behind that way. LINK has the best fundamentals in crypto, if it crashes and burns so does basically every other project. Google, Microsoft, EY, Oracle, SWIFT etc. The list goes on and on of large institutions already integrating, showing interest, or press releases of integration in the near future. Why does anyone even bother FUDing anymore?

>>19651431
Cardano

Staking soon

You're welcome. You can get a 1k suicide LINK stack just incase

>>19651807
Tezos and Link is the divine combo. Don't get it twisted.

What are we looking at realistically EOY for link lads?

>>19654112

Probably 30ish at most. By the end of this coming bull cycle which should kicking off by this time next year and ending early 2022, likely low triple digits. 300ish at most imo which seems high probably. The bull cycle after that who the fuck knows it could be ridiculous once the network matures. Full potential is BTC levels though.

>>19654112
It depend on too much variable to say, but given what already happen I don't see it being unter $1 so there's that.
If things goes well then sky is the limit

>>19654112

>>19653366

Those who understand, understand

Those who know, know

biz used to be far more active back in 2018 and at that time there were really serious research threads. Pulling apart the whitepaper, actual insider info, really good research into how financial institutions fitted together, the timelines involved.
Anyway, there was a time when most on this board had at least a suicide stack as it hovered around $0.35 for months and months.
I was a poor student at the time and still got together 23k from around US$4k over about 15 months. So a lot of people had stacks of 10k+, just that people break up their wallets.

>>19654112
The end of waging for the rest of your life if you continue to buy regularly and hold.

>>19651503
I bought back in 2017, I'd say the average stack in mid 2018 was probably 10-15k. 100k yeah some were larps but it's really not that hard to imagine many anons sinking 10-30k into link, especially with the kind of gains that were made in the bullrun.
Nowadays average stack size seems to be about 1k, we've got a lot more newfags now.

>>19654973

>>19651431
Try to accumulate at least 10K. This is a good start. Even 3400 might be worth 3M in a decade. What else are you gonna do with the money? Nothing else has the same clear upside.

>>19654973
You'd say that because you take what you read at face value and you forget that the less a linkies has the less he will tell you what his stack is.
Truth is when LINK was sub 0.5 most anons didn't bought and most of those who bought just threw a few bucks at the beast just in case.
A few anon either believed in the project or saw it as a good poker move and went all in, but even they hadn't necessarily more than 1k or 2k to buy it.
Yes some anons had big money to put, and amondlg them some put big money on link. But that's not the majority

>>19655118
And then you also factor in that the people who took the risk and put significant amounts in, you have to imagine a good percentage of those people probably sound at milestones like $1

>>19655118
Dude a fuckload of us were incredibly bullish and got even moreso as it dipped below 50c. The threads were more numerous, faster and with better info than today. Crazy amounts of hype and research.

>>19655186
*Sold

>>19653011
>only 10k people have over 1,000 LINK?
Around 15000 anons now holding 1k out of 150k wallet. That will put you on 10% top wallets.

ARPA hasn't mooned yet, so no. MPC is at least 1 year away from seeing a bubble. You're very early.

Oh you mean CHAINLINK?! HAHAHAHAHAA. Yes, you're late. it's 40x ICO.

Buy DMG at public sale or ARPA if you wanna make it.

>>19651431
Buying just 3400 link puts you in the top 3% or so of holders, you are very early.
