>long term holder
>bought in sub 10

It was sub 10 like a month ago anon. That doesn’t prove you’re a long term holder at all. I don’t consider anyone who got in above $4 a long term holder, it consolidated around $3-4 for like a year

>>21474124
>Why can't a major company like GOOGLE copy and paste LINK's code and make their own token?
they can, it's open source so they can do it and not even get sued
it's that easy
literally nothing is stopping them
in developer lingo, it's simply called "a fork"
if you're still holding with this knowledge, you deserve to get rekt

>>21474124
Trust Sergey, he think of these things already. Chainlink is good token, safe pump only.

>>21474124
Facebook tried to do it, but you know what happened?

Take a guess.

>long term holder
>sub 10
Weak bait

Dude, you realize some of us have been here since etherdelta days?

>Why cannot x make their own operating system
>Why cannot x just make their own x product

There is a reason why people use Windows, Linux, Microsoft, Apple etc and "don't just make their own" like you propose. Or use some weird and unknown alternative from China.

Chainlink is already becoming a standard.

>>21474231
i dunno seems pretty effective so far

>>21474249
The code for their operating systems are proprietary and not open source. Anyone could create their own LINK token. If Microsoft created their version of LINK then Chainlink will dump.

>>21474443
Isn't tesla open source? Why ppl don't just copy em?

this guys a faggot..

>>21474124
Motherfucker I bought in at like $7 a month and ahalf ago, and I wouldn't even consider myself a "long term holder."
I'm a nulinker, but I've made good chunk of money so far, but don't consider yourself on par with the guys who bought into it when it was sub $1.

>>21474443
I mentioned Linux and it is open source and used even by The United States Department of Defense.

You are also not considering the network effect, even if Microsoft or some big player would start their own network, they have to build it from scratch, literally from zero. Chainlink already has an ecosystem to choose the feeds from and it is growing every day

There is the first mover advantage, industry standard considerations. Fuck this spoonfeeding, even the World Economic Forum blockchain projects are tweeting about Chainlink

Go wait for your Micorosft Oracles and buy then

>>21474124
because just copying the token isn’t enough

>>21474124
Fuck off newfag

>>21474511
What is this?

>>21474669

>>21474525
First mover advantage is not worth billions of dollars. If Microsoft copied Chainlink's code there will be more nodes the next day. They can post a tweet to 9 million followers.

>>21474868
then apple, then google, then amazon, and we’re back to square one with no universal oracle network and all these companies have blown millions for nothing

it’s ironically a product that a big company actually can’t create... all they can do is buy in like everybody else. Which is why Microsoft azure cryptlets are almost certainly just chainlink nodes

>>21474182
Why would they waste their time, money, and resources on that when they can just use a bigger and already established network that the team developing the original software is maintaining?

>>21474124
Only long term holders are those who bought under 30 cents

>>21474559
you have 36 ethereum price feeds, thats hardly a network to brag about

Isn’t that what BAND did? It was even blatantly stated in their GIthub

2 men team

>>21474559
There is no point in explaining dumb shit like this to people. You are wasting your time.

Why do you go to the grocery store to buy apple when you can easily grow them on your own?

>>21474124
OP it doesn't work that way in business. It's really expensive either way.
Huge businesses already uses other companies products, including open source software.
IF they need customization, they will fork it. But many times, specially on versatile tools like Chainlink, they don't fork it. It's not as easy as it sounds.

There is huge Forbes top 100 companies already using open source software and stuff like Laravel, cpanel, Drupal, Docker, Wordpress, Magento,

Technically they CAN create their own forked version but why, when there is products meeting their exact requirements And is actively being used and developed.
Forking and modifying would mean much higher cost and time.

Coinbase and Binance uses ID verification solutions such as Jumio and Onfido, although closed source, it's simpler that way.

Technically they can develop their own onboarding solution or hire an officer to verify all posts. But again, would it be worth it? Probably not, and that's why they dont.

>why would you do the minimal one time effort to fork a small protocol with no complexity when you could pay recurring payments to internet retards for eternity

>>21475776
>There is huge Forbes top 100 companies already using open source software and stuff like Laravel, cpanel, Drupal, Docker, Wordpress, Magento
none of these require a recurring fee for every single action you undertake using said software

>>21474672
Some shitcoin , do not inquire further

>He's never even heard of delphi

>>21475397
so this worth 20 dollars a token? this action?

>>21475833
>>21475862
And you think the cost and time to devote another task would be worth it over using a distributed ledger?
You do realize how much constrain on time and how much each hour costs at big companies like Google?

If you are a freelance coder who do nothing but jerk off on your spare time it would be worth it but for them, probably not unless they needed a custom solution.

In the end, sometimes, they develop their own but for a start or to test, they don't. One of the most common software to subscribe to for a lifetime is security based software such as Cloudflare (which they can develop on their own if they want to), imperva or incapsula (again, any company can create these functionality).

>long term holder
>sub 10 dollars
Hahahahahaha what a fucking retard

>>21474249
Haaaaavvveeee you heard of Bletchley? Probably not, because you’re a pleb

>>21475994
hahahahahahaha OP is such a fag

>>21474868
This is fud from 2017. You retards can't even come up with anything new. All you do is regurgitate the same garbage.

The Link bubble will pop, because Biden will attack this alt right meme coin.

>>21474173
any buy in over a dollar is pure FOMO

>>21474868
then sell. no one gives a shit about your lunch money

>>21474182
lmao whats a patent

>>21477317
Hardly anything is patented in crypto.
