Everyone wanted updates right after the last one. It's been over a month and nothing happened. Here is a breakdown of what was expected and the progress:

>Since the token sale, we’ve been focused on the critical next steps for making the ChainLink Network a success by actively hiring for our technical team
As far as we know, they have hired nobody and no progress has been made on that

>building the ChainLink Network as described in our whitepaper, and preparing to make the SIBOS conference as successful as possible.
SIBOS passed and was successfull, no news from the network other than implementing it in GO instead of Ruby now

>I’m glad to say that the large amount of interest in our presentation at SIBOS has shown our efforts to be a success so far, with the presentation being attended to full capacity until it reached standing room only.
Means nothing

>Our initial implementation with SWIFT focused on the ability to input critical financial data into a smart contract security, the usage of shared standards like ISO20022 to make smart contracts more understandeable, and the ability for a smart contract to send payments to any of the 11,000+ banks that rely on SWIFT payment messages.
Greast news, explains what the swift.smartcontract.com was. However, everyone thought the working product was ChainLink not a PoC. Everyone is realizing now the product is not even anywhere close to done.

>> No.4497083

>After working closely with SWIFT and multiple financial institutions on smart contract securities, we do believe that a smart contract’s ability to make payments in an end-user’s preferred format (bank account payments), is an important feature for their ability to become the preferred form of digital agreement. Since the larger financial industry seems to be in clear agreement with us on a smart contract securities need for key inputs/outputs, the initial implementation presented at SIBOS is something we are currently in conversations about turning into a larger implementation for both SWIFT, and multiple large institutions.
No updates on this, what are they doing, how are the talks going on? Are they expecting the mainnet launch. Again, left in the dark.

>We do very much appreciate the community’s patience and support as we do our best to implement the critical next steps for the ChainLink Network’s success.
Clearly not since everyone has been complaining, and none of it has been addressed

>To briefly provide clarity on what we’ve been working on other than SWIFT/SIBOS; we are actively hiring for technical roles, have been building the ChainLink Network as described in our white paper,
No devs hired. If the technical manager is considered their role then fuck me sideways.

>are working to get the first key end-users of the ChainLink Network in place
How's that going? again no updates on this, great.

>and are also in the process of making a plan for keeping the community better updated as we grow the team to handle the large increase of inbound interest from the traditional banking, fintech, web development and crypto communities.
No effort has been made to keep the community better updates.

Good Luck everyone, this is an L for me. Pic related, website wasn't even touched since token sale.

I can show you at least three random ICOs that put the Visa, MasterCard and PayPal logos on their site and trust me, nothing ever happened and those ICOs either tanked or just disappeared after token release. It's you money so you decide what to do, i just don't understand why hold now. Holding long term applies to bitcoin and a very few alts (maybe 3 or 4). This is clearly not one of those.

Dude is a mastermind, won that contest on sibos 2016 and was invited this year again,
The idea of link and what he's trying to do is revolutionary but holding Lin right now doesn't make too much sense given the recent news. They basically told us that there's nothing ahead until at least January 2018. With a bitcoin breaking ATHs every single day, why not just go back to btc or even better make a few good trades with that same amount of btc and rebuy later? You will get even more LINK by then since it's not the same buying with btc priced at 7000 than buying with btc priced at 9000 or whatever price it reaches by Jan 2018.

Good job on writing this up OP. I dumped all of my LINK (at a small overall loss) as soon as I saw the most recent update.

While I believe in LINK and will buy back in next year, it's clear that absolutely nothing is going to happen with it for at least 2/3 months.

I gave them the benefit of the doubt, assuming that they really would launch their mainnet in 2018 Q1. However, if they are going to rewrite in Go, and they haven't even hired a Go developer yet... this is going to take a while.

Another anon said it right - if their code is so simple it can be ported/reimplemented by a brand new employee in a few weeks, then the product is simplistic and will be overtaken by competition.

Side note: I am contracting with a company you have heard of, who would benefit from making their data available to CL. I contacted Rory via the website to enquire about setting up a pilot project, and never had a response. They are leaving potential partners in the dark just as much as investors.

Until they hire additional developers and a competent community manager, I'm staying out of LINK and watching it bleed from the sidelines.

It hurts to admit it, but I'm not afraid to be wrong: All you anons who sold LINK a month ago and have been shitting on it since then were right. We should have listened instead of taking a further 20% loss.

>> No.4498642

It's not the "two months in" part. It's "two months in and they just admitted they need to rebuild the entire platform, but first they need to hire a developer".

Read the latest update. They said they are going to rewrite the project in Go, and are currently trying to find developers. Rory said they are in the "reviewing resumes" stage. Ergo, they have not hired anyone.

No mental breakdown here. Grow up a bit - when you're older and/or wiser you will see that people like to analyse both the good and bad sides of potential investments. Not everything is black and white.

The point is that a) they have decided to rewrite the entire core of the project in Go and b) they do not have any Go developers on the team (otherwise they would have said so on the update).

Have you ever done any software project management? Not having any devs who are competent in your chosen language is a pretty big thing.

They are unable to make any progress on the core of the project until they have hired someone. If you don't see this as a red flag, you are blinded by something.

Calm down man, and read that - and the most recent update - again. The implication is that they do not currently have any Go devs on staff. They do not conclusively state one way or the other. I take that to mean they currently have 0 Go devs. You take it to mean they have more than one. Good, let's agree to disagree on our assessments of that statement.

> Sergey announced this many weeks ago. See pic.
> Stop being this clueless.

You're still missing the point. The fact that it is being rewritten is not news. They fact that they do not have any devs on the team who can do the rewrite is what is important.

> Maybe they're reviewing resumes for more developers?

Again, this is down to interpretation. My interpretation is that the existing two devs do not have Go skills, otherwise this would have been mentioned.

Look, I'm not trying to FUD. I love LINK and I'm sure the idea will succeed. But step back for a moment - forget that I am someone on the internet who is disagreeing with you, and re-read the two most recent updates. After re-reading them, are you confident that the team has enough dev capacity to deliver on the Go/Solidity parts of the project?

Unless they are hiring marketers who can write Go, this is irrelevant to my point. I invest in tech, not hype.

I'm saying it's possible they already have some and are simply looking for more.

In any case, porting into a new code is a very common thing during development, and is pretty much purely code monkey work.
The real developments are down to actually setting up the network, interaction with TownCrier/SGX, etc.

And it was always VERY obvious the team was going to have a lot of work ahead of them; otherwise they would not have needed those ICO funds.

This is all so retarded. You're all textbook buy high sell low retards. Being fearful when others are also fearful and greedy when others are greedy rather than the other way round.

Yes, it's a shame that they'll have to translate the project into another language. But we've been saying from the start this is a long term hold. It's still the case that we don't know when this thing is going to take off and anyone who's been in crypto long enough knows these things take off without warning and very very quickly. If you think you can time the market you might get lucky but you risk being outside the rocket when it takes off.

I don't care if you sell but look how reactive and emotional you're being. You're likely to do nothing more over the next few weeks/months than browse /biz/ and jump on the latest flavor of the day when it's already too late, hold too long, and not make any money. I know this from experience and while I've made (and lost) money from tips on this site, the only serious money (i.e. 10x+) I've made was from holding ETH from the beginning.

LINK was always an INVESTMENT, not speculation.

Fair point, I asserted it strongly in the first post and then left room for interpretation in the second. My personal view is that they don't have any existing Go skills on the team, otherwise they would have a) said so and b) started the rewrite already.

> In any case, porting into a new code is a very common thing during development, and is pretty much purely code monkey work.

Yes and no. Prototyping in one language and porting to another does indeed happen all the time. I have no problem with porting per se.

Porting is easier than starting from scratch as a lot of the brain work has already been completed. But building a scalable solution (the stated purpose of the rewrite) is not code monkey work - especially if the team may or may not have any existing expertise in the target language.


> And it was always VERY obvious the team was going to have a lot of work ahead of them; otherwise they would not have needed those ICO funds.

Agreed. I'm not some ADHD idiot who hears a bit of bad news and then panic sells. But despite that, this is still a big blow for the project. I understand everyone is emotionally invested and it is easy to dismiss this as FUD, but it is objectively bad news.

True, but they have nothing to show for it.

The ICO ended 2 months ago and they still haven't hired any devs to start the Go development?

Try to see this from the perspective of someone who isn't already emotionally invested in chainlink.

"There's this new token. It gets real world data onto the blockchain, opening it up to all sorts of amazing use cases in a secure manner. The project has interest from payments giant SWIFT as well as AXA, Sony, and Gartner. They already have a working testnet and have raised funds to hire a larger team and port their project over to Go to ensure the scalability needed for such an ambitious project. The project is currently around #86 on coinmarketcap but has the potential to be top 5/top 10 within the next year or so and will handle TRILLIONS of dollars if implemented widely. It's still mostly unknown and is just listed on a couple of small exchanges but will almost certainly be listed on Bittrex in the near future. Want to invest?"

You're just disappointed that it's a step back from where you thought the project was already. But in absolute terms it's still an absolute steal.

I doubt the price will go much lower but I advise everyone to be greedy right now when everyone else is being fearful.

>> No.4501237

>>4501131

Again, this is a matter for interpretation. Currently transitioning might mean that they have started writing code, or it might mean they are in the planning phases. You can't tell one way or the other without proof.

>>4501141
>No really, I honestly, truly, deeply desire source.

There are only so many different ways I can write this. It does not conclusively say whether or not they already have existing Go experience on the team.

You believe they do. I believe they don't. I base my belief on the fact that neither Steve nor Rory have any Go projects on GitHub (apart from a hello world two years ago), and the comments they made about needing to hire particular skill sets.

The fact is there is no evidence either way. I can't prove they have no Go devs, and you can't prove they have already started reimplementing it and producing code.

Do you work in software development? If you say you are "currently converting/reimplementing/transitioning a project to a new language" it might mean you have already started writing code, or it might mean you are still in the planning stages.

>>4501351

> Steve developed the whole network already.

Obviously not, otherwise they would have released something as Steve said they would release early. You are the only one claiming the entire network has been completed.

Steve has no Go repos in his GitHub, apart from a hello world project two years ago. As I said to the other anon, there is no solid evidence one way or another. LINK is still a good hold IMO, just a longer term hold than any of us were anticipating.
