Hello, Anons. Welcome to the eight edition of the series of threads known as Link /comfy/ threads, wherein weary marines come in to share their woes, rest their feet, and enjoy and share in some good art, good music, and most of all, good vibes.

We ended the last thread with an extemely high note of Link ATH'ing at $20, proving me wrong once and for all that we'd see ten before twenty. I apologize for being so doubtful.

I recently rewatched a presentation by Sergey. While before I had believed in the project, and, of course, I had read the whitepaper and understood what we were on about- now I *believe* in link rather than just understand the value.

Boys and girls, we're onto something fundamentally world changing. This is bigger than 1k or 82k, this is the type of thing that could very well change how humanity conducts business in the developed world on a fundamental basis.

I implore you all to rewatch it even if you've already seen it. Among all the fud, I think it's valuable.

Oh, and that was a nice lil' pump to 19.30 just now. very nice to see. Clearly cooling off for the nest run. I expect another day of crabbing before take off, as is the usual with Link.

And for the Anons not interested in watching an hour long presentation, here's some music for a thread theme.

Most of all, I'm hit by a wave of sadness for Marines lost and Marines swung. I wish we could bring them to understand the fundamental societal change they could have been apart of if they just kept Hodling. I understand some had no choice, but if only they understood that this goes far beyond short term profits and Lamborghini's and Corvettes and Mansions.


And yet, I feel now an even deeper connection the Marines hodling with me who've understood and believed all along.

Looking at charts, we see the lowest part of the dip on Tuesday, and after it pumps it his another low on Friday. This has been the trend for a while, from what I can see. The last low was a Friday, so I think we’ll see the cheapest linkies for a while in 2 days, followed by another pump. Maybe even $15 so I can increase my fucking mediocre stack of 33

With the enormity of this project finally sinking in, the less and less short term price movements matter to me at all. The value of a project like chainlink is so fundamental to the next industrial revolution and how humanity conducts business, not to mention how it affects insurance companies and their ability to help mitigate risks for more emerging markets, make pumps and dips and dives and crabbing not matter. We *will* get there, it is only a matter of time.

Not really art but I made a Link Totem earlier this summer.
It’s a big green totem that is exactly 8 feet and 15 inches, which was the price of Link at the time ($8.15)

Anon, you need to adjust the way you approach it, hm? For one, look at all the folks posting single or double digit stacks. That will always serve as a quick little shot of hopium.

More seriously though, you need to be proud of yourself for getting at all. Do you think the people who got into bitcoin or ethereum at $40 felt bad about the size of other people's stacks when they reached their highs?

And, consider this- if nothing else, you're participating in one of the must fundamental changes that society will see. No, we may not all get to live on mars sometime soon, but we will live to see the way we do business change fundamentally.

I was not a religious man prior to link. In fact, I was a pretty ardent atheist despite being baptized catholic. The more I lurk here and the more I read and the more I talk to other Marines and Anons, the more I start to believe that we have been shepherded and pointed here, to Link, and Biz, for a reason, and I think that reason is to improve the world. I think many Marines will engage in hedonism with abandon once they make it, but something tells me the kind of people who make it on Biz are the kind of people who will end up making the world a better place, either by concerted effort or by accident.

My father had a littany of extremely intense personality disorders and issues, Anxiety a footnote in them. We found a good therapist and doctor, and now he's the best dad on this planet. He's sane, he's still *him*, but he doesn't go off the rails and punch walls. It took time and crying and screaming and yelling and changing what meds he was on over and over but we're not at a point where, for the first time, I have a Dad.

Comfy thread. I noticed a lot of double and triple digit stacks here, just remember the vast majority of people don’t even know what chainlink is yet. I know we obsess over it and immediately see the Portnoy and Newsweek things and think it’s over, but that’s nothing. We’re still extremely early, if link accomplishes what it sets out to do, think btc in early 2010’s. The biggest hurdle is going to be deciding whether to temporarily exit the market if crypto as a whole experiences mainstream attention (likely winter of next year), but staying in won’t hurt you in the long run, just your short term position.

Anon, you also shouldn't feel any stigma or be embarrassed about what you have. Anxiety is a mental illness. It is a disease in the same way that polio or Covid is, it is a sickness, the only difference is that it isn't visible. This doesn't diminish your struggle. Don't blame yourself for having Anxiety. If you could control that sort of thing, then it wouldn't be a mental illness. Don't be afraid to reach out and ask for help, to family, to friends, to people you know. The next time you are having an attack, just- text a friend. You aren't a burden.

Better be 55.6 or 7.62, Anon, don't tell me you've got some goddamn Arisaka. (unless it's a based chrysanthemum). Anyway, welcome fellow /k/ poster.

Coinbase is your best bet. It is KYC and very normie friendly. Safest, most well known, easiest to use, and makes it easy to report your taxes when you need to.

For tax purposes, your best bet is to stick with one exchange like Coinbase or Coinbase pro until you know what you're doing.

I would personally advise against trading unless it’s something you want to do for fun and have play money. While crypto in general gets a bad rap and is misunderstood by the public, the markets are heavily manipulated and full of bots and planned pump and dumps, to the point that if you aren’t in on it, you’ll almost always get stuck holding bags. Far safer to pick one of the big three and ride with it. If there’s a fourth I’m sure it’ll be found here as well, you just have to be able to see through the bullshit (if there’s no fud and people are calling it the “next link”, it ain’t it)

Hodl and forget. If you're dedicated to Link, then transfer your stack to a hardware wallet, make a few copies of your keys, and then check back in a year. Block biz.

Otherwise? Doesn't hurt to play around with alts.

Don't fall for the memes about avoiding taxes. fucking pay them holy shit hire a tax lawyer if you must.

My biggest tip is to only invest money that you're willing to take out in cold, hard cash, pool up in a pile in your driveway, and set on fire. That way, if it moons- great! If the shitcoin you chose goes to zero- no big deal, fun while it lasted.

Hire a crypto-experienced tax lawyer. They are worth it. Taxable events on Cyrpto in the us count as coins being converted, coins being used to pay for a service, mining, and other things. You don't really need to report anything if you bought and haven't sold. In the US, Crypto is taxed using Capital Gains Tax, and there are brackets for what you pay based on your income from a regular job before your asset is factored in.

Google crypto and capital gains tax, that's the biggest thing. Also, if your account doesn't have a history of Major transactions, suddently dropping in 20 or 30k or more will get you investigated and your account frozen- thus, a tax lawyer. Your state may have different laws.

Do your own research. google is your friend here because the laws vary from state to state sometimes, and everyones tax situation is a little different.

4chan is a terrible place for perspective. 11k is something like a top 2 or 3k wallet, close to top 1% of all holders. It’s just a lot of those wallets are concentrated here so it increases the fomo. But all you have to do is hop to another board like /pol/ or /fit/ and they’ll call you a faggot larper if you post your portfolio.

Comparison is the thief of Joy. 800k at 1k would buy me a house, a car, and pay for a PHD. Those are the biggest expenses of the average American, and that would set me far, far ahead of most people.
