Am I a retard for using the LINK/ETH pair all the time instead?

>>4606043
no, I used to go with the ETH/Link but there's simply more volume with the BTC/link

the USD price is the same so there's really no much difference than that

Volume has been unusually high today with no price movement. Last time volume was anywhere near this high we had good upwards movement.

NOOOOO NOT YET FUCK

I am a tiny 1050 Link away from my comfy HODLING goal and fucking Coinbase is suspicious of my new card and is holding my ETH till fucking tomorrow not letting me send it. JUST FUCKING WAIT ANOTHER FUCKING DAY SO I CAN GET THIS FUCK!

>>4606665
>Comfy hodling goal

I bought 55k link at 40c

>>4606761
jus' hold it man. it sucks but 55k LINK is enough to make it.

>>4606761

Lucky you. I've got 18,953 Link right now and my goal is 20k Link minimum.

Fuck I have 3.8 ETH locked on Coinbase right now fuck I could have around 30k Link if it goes through.

>>4606833
I sold mine and made enough to cover a little extra LINK if I wanted to. Why do people even HODL when BCC just mooned, along with POE and like 5 other alts? It just makes no sense man.

wut was that

>>4606761
I bought 55k link at 8c

>>4606404
>> pump up the volume

Yeah for real, what the dealio?

Some guy is or multiple guys are accumulating like hell it seems. New exchange confirmed

I'm not really into TA or anything and I know it might sound stupid, but does anyone else count 4waves (as of this last one), this could mean we're looking at a nice last pump ant then we should see a tren reversal

anyone understands elliot waves theory better?

kinda sad I can't afford more link :/

>>4607653
and considering BTC looks prone to correct and there's "news" before EOTY
this... this could moon before we expect it

can someone please call me deluded so I go do productive things with my time?

>>4607737
a BTC correction means alts will go down as well. LINK might not get hit as hard since it's already at rock bottom and support at 1800 sats has been tested multiple times.

>>4608121
>a BTC correction means alts will go down as well
NO! WHY DO YOU FUCKS KEEP SAYING THIS YOU FUCKING TARDS, I SWEAR YOU JUST COPY WHAT YOU HEAR OTHER IDIOTS SAY, KYS

How much link and req to become a millionaire in two year's time? Is 3500 link and 10000 req enough?

>>4608202
for that you'd need Link at 142usd and req at 50usd
(to have a million I mean, that'd be 500k from each investment)

>>4608159

Can you explain why that's not true. Not trolling, curious.

>>4608202
hmmm I reckon that might happen, I'll HODL until I hit those numbers or a crash is imminent. (I'm also HODLing 2000 XRP but I don't know whether that'll go anywhere soon)

thanks anon!

>>4607407
Bullish af is what that is.

>>4606404
This, volume has been thick today. I haven't seen it like this, price is same. Is someone actually accumulating? What does it mean??

>>4608370

>>4608304

I don't want to take away your (you)

>>4608464
you gotta remember that all this talk of binance prices is kinda dumb because only 5% of the tokens are being actively traded.

>>4608362

BTC correcting from $10k would mean hodlers would likely move into other cryptos -- not fiat.

>>4608362
Because if the money flows into alts then alts rise. A bitcoin correction only hurts alts when money leaves into fiat

>>4608515
lol you're welcome m8
we can all dream :)

>>4608463
I'm fanatized by the way Link moves, it's like some real smart/institutional investors are behind this
usually the charts for crypto are all bullshit (IMO)

WTF my ID changed

I can't believe the amount of Link threads get started, mods need to do their job.

Plus Link does have competition and these competitors are further along in development than Link. Link is not unique

Kill yourself brainlet

you mean Corta? we had a thread about this
corta is competition to the blockchain and SWFIT

and "aeternity" is a joke, seriously read the whitepaper and their 2 sentece explanation of "decentralized oracles"
probably a fancy PnD

>>4608614
You're wrong m8

>>4608653
SWFIT lol

SWIFT

if you know any other decentralized oracle in work out there please let us know :)

>>4608614
>>4608653

Here we go boys.

I'm glad I listened to the poster from last night that finally convinced me to get on the LINK train.

>>4608653
>Corda displaces SWIFT
>ChainLink announces partnership with SWIFT

Corda is working on doing what Link does and SWIFT making that partnership(if it ever develops) useless. Aeternity is not a joke and is planning on launching their MainNet in Q12018, when is Link?

Oracle Chain, Corda, Aeternity, even Orcalize.it, are all competitors to Link. You guys are so deluded that you refuse to see it.

>>4608835
>Oracle Chain
You mean Oracles Network?

>>4608521
>only 5% of the tokens are being actively traded.
That makes the notion of Binance manipulation even more relevant.

>>4608835
>Oracle Chain, Corda, Aeternity, even Orcalize.it
All centralized and/or tied to proprietary blockchains.
Dumbass.

>>4608835
I DOnt think you understand that aeternity is a fundamentally flawed concept since they are acting on their own blockchain.

Please get some LINK stickers to show the world you are a cashslave to sergey and his fellow findoms

>>4608835
Its true that Corda is further ahead, and further ahead in development, but its only for banks.

CL is not linked solely specifically to banks.

So yes, they are competition, and if Corda manages to convince all the major banks, that would be a blow to early adoption of CL. But in the long run, CL could still have many use-cases.

>>4608521
I have to point out that same goes for all coins. Ethereum's volume is 3% mcap

>>4609148
Corda isn't really a competitor for CL since it is not decentralized. It isn't even an open DLT. But when it comes to Link and SWIFT it's definitely something I engourage everyone to DYOR. Corda is a blockchain inspired messaging platform, notice that SWIFT is a messaging platform. Corda is made from scratch for financial institutions with financial institutions.

>>4609222
>further ahead in development
In its other features (blockchain and smart contracts). I doubt their current progress in development also covers oracles. You're forgetting that they are trying to cover a lot of things.

>>4607414
fuuuuu

>>4609222
If you think Corda will kill LINK then you also have to believe that Corda will kill ETH and Hyperledger in terms of usage since its oracles only work for the corda blockchain. Same thing for Aeternity really.

>>4609367
They released their network a few days ago. They have working oracles, centralized and private. Testing real implementation with a proto network

>>4609387
With so many banks involved in this project, the likelihood is high. At this point it is hard to see this project being trashed pr put on the shelf unless something significant happens to their blockchain.

Many large companies(not just banks) are creating incubator projects around blockchain.

>>4609436
>>4609486
>Its likely Corda will curbstomp ETH, Hyperledger and LINK
Then there is nothing we can do. Can you invest in Corda? No.

Same thing with the Hyperledger FUD used against ETH before. Can you invest in Hyperledger? No. So you have no choice but to invest in ETH if you believe in smart contract tech.

>>4609486

So you're saying you think Corda will displace ETH?

/biz/ is seirous about ETH, they think it's the true solid project of the big coins. If I thought LINK was being dumped on by /biz/ fudders I can't imagine the carnage if a group of people started pushing Corda to replace ETH on the /biz/ mainpage. (Not taking sides in this, just making an observation).

>>4609639
>So you're saying you think Corda will displace ETH?
The point is you can't invest in Corda just like Hyperledger. We have no choice but to invest in ETH or some non-corporate smart contract platform. Same goes for LINK.

>>4609639
he's saying banks won't run their smart-contracts through ETH, but use their own inhouse version - Corda.

But CL has more use cases.

>>4609486
>>4609590
Chainlink is an add-on.
It works with a variety of blockchains, and can be made to work with more.
This is hugely preferable to proprietary blockchains when it comes to smart contracts.
Making smart contract users use your specific blockchain is extremely dumb and entirely unnecessary.

>>4609671
>>4609678

I thought part of the whole mission of bitcoin and eth was decentralisation. If the banks move to inhouse versions then this is an ideological fight occuring.

>>4609756

This guy gets it.

>>4609639
>>4609671
At this point in the project, with 100+ Banks involved in this, testing with proto network, yes. Nearly all banks, if not all banks, use SWIFT. Why wouldn't they just use one blockchain technology or fix the bugs than ditch it and go to ETH and virtually start all over again?

>>4609590
That's not what I'm saying at all. Read my previous post. Corda is competition for CL only in financial messaging.

i went all in @ 1950
dont even care anymore
im already applying for jobs

>>4609811
So what you're trying to say is that decentralized blockchain tech is doomed to fail since people will just use enterprise blockchain tech?

What you're trying to say can be summarized to "Dont invest in crypto". Seriously what do you want us to do? Ditch ETH and LINK (even though Hyperledger is supported)? Where can i buy corda coins lmao.

>>4609756
So, you are telling me Corda will use Smart Contracts and thus use Chain Link? Please elaborate. You do realize Corda has their own Oracles?

>>4609590
Yes, but it will not matter to large financial institutions. If JP morgan and few other large banks start using Corda, why wouldn't other players follow suit? One hundred plus banks are backing this project. Unless a serious bug infects the Corda blockchain, you can say the user case for ETH in financial sector shrinks to nearly zero.

ETH will have use elsewhere, but the financial sector is an ideal place for ETH, Link and hyperledger.

>>4609908
they just want to say that they have their mouths full of cocks

>>4609973
go back to plebbit you pussy

>>4609811
Friendly reminder that swift operates on over 11,000 Banks, and would probably like to keep making money of its services.

Sure its a small blow, that 100+ banks are used.
But Visa and Mastercard and american express can also exist side by side.

Plus CL could provide other use-cases in the future.

>this corda fud
Corda is very much a known entity, even tied to Hyperledger of which Swift is a fonding member.
And Swift is still turning to Chainlink.

Several banks that started or later joined Corda (including Societe Generale, Santander, and Barclays) likewise got directly involved in the Chainlink demo.

>>4609948
>ETH will have use elsewhere
Same for LINK, didnt Request Network and Factom already confirm LINK's use case?

why cant i stop buying LINK

>>4609948
>So, you are telling me Corda will use Smart Contracts and thus use Chain Link? Please elaborate. You do realize Corda has their own Oracles?
see >>4610024

>>4609803
Ofc, Banks would like to retain their power base, as every incumbent ever.

>>4609908
This "where can i buy Corda coins?" needs to stop, I understand you want to make money of this blockchain revolution but making money has nothing to do with the legitimate threat Corda offers to the 'publicly traded' blockchain companies.

>doomed to fail since people will just use enterprise blockchain tech

Perhaps I worded it incorrectly. But why would a specifc sector of an economy adopt different blockchains?

>>4610024
Yes perhaps from a cost/efficiency perspective, a combination of Link ETH and Hyperledger, may come out cheaper or be demanded by the financial sector due to its third party, transparent etc status. Time will tell
