>>53310928
I noticed that his posts had a LOT of memes that fudders reuse over and over again, so it was kind of hilarious when I just looked up his handle and found a goldmine of shame so potent that he ended up deleting his twitter account over it. You'll notice that the fudders are really going hard in the last couple hours as well - they're upset that one of their "heroes" turned out to be a retarded coomer.

>>53311008
>he ended up deleting his twitter account over it
Just checked and he actually did, haha holy shit, this must've been very recent.

>>53311008
the only thing I've noticed is how hard you're trying to distract people from acknowledging that the premier CL ambassador is a grifting midwit scammer, using yet another chainlink twitter marketing persona
Every day you're desperately trying to create a new narrative about le fudders (le bancor, le bulgarians, le thomas!1!1!) I'm curious to see what else you'll come up with tomorrow

>>53311293
I was just about to post that this Thomas faggot is probably also one of the schizos (or THE schizo) who obsesses about CLG in those borderline doxx threads that get samefagged to death, and suddenly here you are, bringing up CLG out of the blue with a fresh new ID.

>>53311254
Yeah, couple hours ago actually
>>53311293
>the premier CL ambassador
I would gladly pay Thomas 100 linkies to minecraft Zach instead of roping himself desu, as would most OGs. He absolutely is a midwit scammer - I was one of the ones that he blocked early on when he tried to run those "hacked" wallet charity scams and I called bullshit on it

And I don't "create narratives" anon, the fudders do that on their own by being shit at what they do. Simeon's Sloppy Jobs / Zeus Capital, Bancor / Celsius gambling victims, Thomas being a coombrain - all things which have been proven and fudders absolutely hate having them discussed.

So what should I sell my Link for? Gold?

>>53310323
and linkfags will say youre fudding LOL

>>53310323
Imagine fudding link for 5 years like this faggot OP.

>>53313257
You have to admit tho the association with scams is a bit concerning. And these scams only imploded this last year. And I mean it was every scam, even Scamcor. They literally shilled to marines to get their link stolen by Bancor. Sad reality. How do you explain that?

>>53313358
Bancor etc. failed to implement basic things Chainlink has been advocating for years, like proof of reserves.
Doesn't mean Chainlink shouldn't have worked with them, because by that logic Chainlink shouldn't be working with anyone, least of all Swift.

>>53313385
Why do they associate with people and projects that don’t do what they advocate doing?

>>53313793
Because if they don't then there's literally nobody to associate with.

>>53313358
it's concerning from a roastie PR perspective but in reality chainlink is the standard so they work with everyone, people who own link are free to give it to whoever they like, and the only people kvetching about this lost all of their link to CeFi insolvencies. the idea that chainlink shouldn't have let this happen and are responsible will never catch on in an organic way on /biz/ because we are predominantly male and psychologically cannot put ourselves in a frame of mind where we would reject that much personal agency. it is beneath us.

>>53311511

>>53313973
So you are still bullish on Chainlink? I’m just a poorfag looking to protect his shekels.

>>53314075
Everyone on /biz/ is bullish on link, what you have to realize is its only discussed this much because everyone holds link. That said, there are some newfags who have only ever bought above $10 and even $20, and this makes them fud because they seethe at everyone who bought lower. No different than people fudding in 2019 when link ranged between $1-3 for most of the year, jealous of all the under a dollar buyers. The atmosphere right now feels remarkably similar to q1 2019 on here.

>>53314075
tl;dr try to accumulate a 500-1k stack, by 2024 poorfags/newfags will be talking about their 2 digit stacks, over 100 link will be seen as unattainable for average retail.

Fudders are inevitably always newfags/latefags who don’t completely understand chan culture and end up trying extra hard and overcompensating in an attempt to fit in. This is not to be confused with fud4funfags, who put far less effort and usually try to make their fud humorous and easily identifiable.

>>53311008
>he ended up deleting his twitter account over it.
kek it's real

>>53315548
Feels very different to me. There was still a lot of positivity and hope in 2019. Now many people (including myself) have lost over $1M in profits. The team used to have this heir of professionalism and mystique regarding them like they were developing something that was going to change the world. Now it has kind of been revealed that they're hiring a bunch of mid-tier talent (save for a few exceptional people) and have only delivered a few lame tools that are only being used to exchange retarded shitcoins in increasingly complex ways.

>>53315760
lol r u drunk what is this gibberish?

>>53315595
Very good. I have about 250 Link right now and 1 Eth among some other shitcoins. Thinking about dumping my Eth all in to Link. Was holding for Le Merge hype but that was nothing.

>>53315905
its different in one way, and in another nothing every changed. the main difference is that we have no ironic, organic and entertaining FUD only meant to troll redditors, but only blind hate and nonsense seething, which is understandable since there have been many ways in which to lose your position over the years.
i guess it all started with swingies who missed out on coinbase and google pump in 2019 and never accepted their fate. Then came the bulgarians in 2020, and now in 2021 we have newfags/swingies who bought back in above 20$, CEX victims and maybe a few demoralized OGs who didnt take profits, not to mention poolers
despite all the fud and disappointing price action we have achieved many things which would have seemed implausible in 2018
- SWIFT in active partnership
- DTCC and BSN
- WEF confirmed (though this became a more disturbing relationship after 2020)
- Eric Schmidt as advisor
- CCIP (TCP/IP of blockchains)
in other words, relative to the market, we have never been more undervalued and we could see a 10x run at any moment catching everyone off guard

>>53316501
It has become clear that all of those bullet points you mentioned are completely meaningless proofs of concept that have no effect on the token price. The reality of the situation has just set in. I don't view it with these rose-tinted glasses anymore. The entire crypto space is still bull shit after all this time and all that has been accomplished is building increasingly-complex ways to trade different versions of bitcoin.

Chainlink staking was a failure and that was the main thing I've been holding for since the beginning. The whole scenario was supposed to be that staking was going to lock up so many tokens and the price would immediately shoot up. This iteration of staking has been a fucking joke and the team hasn't released anything substantial since mainnet. It's all stupid shit for NFTs and retarded Defi swaps.

I have been holding all of my Link tokens since 2018.

>>53310323

>>53316699
>Chainlink staking was a failure
Even calling it a failure is generous. We're at 2017+5 and the token is still literally unironically with no exaggeration not needed.

>>53316699
well I also expected things to move faster than they have, but the world doesnt just change overnight. i think you should have taken some profits during the bull run so that you might better stomach this period, but i guess its a learning experience and its hard to time everything correctly.
but what remains true is the following; crypto has value because the world needs a financial system outside of centralized control, and among all crypto projects, chainlink has the best team solving the most relevant problems

>>53316850
you obviously have not taken the time to understand the technology that you are allegedly investing in - the only chainlink service that is free to use is price feeds only because the team wanted to bootstrap defi

>>53316855
Why does the world need a financial system out of centralized control? It doesn't.

>>53316896
What other services do they offer? A random number generator for gay ass NFTs? Something that allows you to repeatedly ping a smart contract and ask if it wants to do something (keepers)...which nobody uses?

What other services do they have?

>>53316896
>Customer buys LINK from chainlink labs for dollars
>They give LINK to the node operator for a price feed
>The node operator sells LINK to you in exchange for the dollars

>>53316948
Yes that's right anon, Link Node Operators secure their stake in the Link Network via USD, not Link Tokens. We must get the word out on this egregious scam.

if you paid attention you would know that the wheels are coming off for the current fiat system during this decade. unless you find a way out, youre stuck with confiscable company scrip (cbdcs). what alternatives do you have? precious metals for wealth preservation, but the world needs a digital replacement that can't be corrupted, ergo crypto
>>53316932
moving goal posts; VRF and keepers are cornerstones in smart contract development. the most interesting and least talked about services are plain old external adapters and DECO, in which the majority of value (connecting external web2 systems to web3) will be locked outside of CCIP. All of these require payment in LINK to use, as more and more value is locked the supply will shrink

>>53317355
DECO doesn't exist. Why should you use Chainlink for "plain old external adapters" right now?

>VRP and Keepers are cornerstones...

All smart contracts have given us are retarded NFT projects and AMM-Driven dexes that enable you to swap shitcoins that have no value. And VRF and Keepers are by no means used in a majority of those existing stupid smart contracts.

And cryptocurrencies aren't an alternative to Fiat for what Fiat is used for: a medium of commerce. You, and no one else, uses cryptocurrencies in day to day life. From a higher level, financial institutions don't use cryptocurrencies for settlements. They'll use CBDCs in the future for either of these use cases and they won't operate on public chains.

Maybe they'll use Chainlink for certain applications when this happens but that doesn't mean the token will become very valuable.

I already know your arguments about "staking" which are negated by super linear staking and the ability to just spin up a bunch of nodes instead of needing a high token price. I also think you overestimate how much decentralized oracle networks would be needed for any of this.

>>53317017
>secure their stake in the Link Network
What are you talking about? There is no staking. Chainlink "staking" is just tokens sitting in a wallet doing nothing. In case you're tempted to post some buffoonish protestation, let me ask you how you can have staking without a slashing condition?

Eth is the midwit coin, if crypto plays in the sandbox for another cycle btc is the better play and other shitcoin casinos like bnb and avax will outperform it, if there is any progress made it will be because if link breakthroughs via swift/ccip/staking

>>53317541
I see sir, you are very wise. How does the link node operator operate? What are they doing witht he funds sir?

>>53317541
It's literally staking. It's even called staking v0.1 anon. Look at the blog; I ain't digging it out for you

>>53317579
>How does the link node operator operate?
They get LINK tokens, mostly for free from chainlink labs and partially as payment from clients. They then sell those LINK tokens to bagholders for dollars. They use the dollars to buy aws instances and apartments and cars.
>>53317592
>It's even called staking
yes
>It's literally staking
no

>>53310504
Linkies know it's going to cents eoy

>>53317650
you're telling me the node operators do not use the link tokens on their chainlink nodes?

Sergey betrayed us all. We were supposed to be all in this together.

>>53317457
DECO is soon in beta, external adapters are used to bring data verifiable from multiple but more advanced/specific systems onto the blockchain, e.g. weather data. you got the timeframe wrong, in order to be successful you have to both get the thesis right but also the timing. this is all relevant, in the same way that the internet was relevant despite the dotcom bubble. Fiat is, at best, a unit of account used only at the time of transaction. In the more degenerate economies which have suffered most from inflation, people are already fully in tune with the crypto thesis and they would rather keep their savings in a volatile and scamridden asset class like crypto in favour of their own governments shitcoin. case in point Nigeria where the population rejected their CBDC in favour of crypto, which only managed a sub 1% adoption since its release, while 35% of the population owns crypto in some form. the only thing standing between us and Nigeria is the mirage of a fair society and residual trust in our financial system, this can all change in the span of a few months. At this stage, it wouldn't be surprising if Russia started pricing commodities in sats just to test the waters. Super linear staking never negated a higher token price since node income will be directly proportional to staked collateral.

>>53310323
I wouldn't have believed you a year ago.

Also wouldn't have believed that Su and Kyle are kaput.

FTX was a ponzi

XRP is worth more than $0.00

But here we are.

>>53317701
Basically not? This isn't a secret, anon.

>>53317457
Sounds like you are quite bearish on chainlink. Can I ask you personally why you still hold when you believe this?

>>53317747
Yea, the US and Europe are very close to becoming Nigeria but for the financial system. Come on Anon.

>>53317747
Anyone who uses super linear staking as a fud talking point has a massive stack and is just shitposting to fud out newfags, this was discussed here extensively when whitepaper 2.0 was released, it only reduces the collateral required to secure nodes from colluding, nodes still need collateral equivalent to the value of the contracts they are servicing.

>>53317775
this means that chainlink is the biggest scam since ETH!

>>53317775
Pricefeeds are subsidized until they’re not, what do you think Sergey will do when swift begins using the network and defi is reduced to a fraction of the link revenue? Does the dealer keep giving you free samples forever? And do you think swift will be easy to time, or will the chart continue to be manipulated and frontrun by insiders? There’s going to be posts from anons just like that eth anon who sold at $12 guaranteed.

>>53317859
you'd be surprised at how fast things can move once things really start breaking. the periphery of the eurozone is experiencing 20% consumer price inflation, once people really start internalizing this reality they will eventually come around to the mentality of the thirdies

>>53317328
Chart is heavily manipulated but I’d say low of $25 high of $200-$400 by q1 2024, cycle high will be a 2-3x of one of those numbers, and if staking 1.0 makes it into this cycle you will literally never have to sell, otherwise take profits between q2-q3 2024

>>53317978
>There’s going to be posts from anons just like that eth anon who sold at $12 guaranteed.
Chainlink isn't even that much newer than ethereum, at this point they're basically contemporaries.

>>53313973

>>53318031
Eastern Europe is already a shithole. The US, save for some cities infested with nigs, will be fine due to energy and food independence. It’s starting to sound like the investment strategy for precious metals and ammo though. A necessary societal collapse.

I guess we’ll see, but realistically speaking, DLTs aren’t useful for anything in the real world yet except shitcoins and complex ways of exchanging shitcoins based on programs. Best case scenario is real world assets being traded as shitcoins and it seems like Hedera is the most viable platform for this as they are the only ones with a strategy for managing state size that seems to work. And Chainlink won’t provide data input for the Hashgraph

>>53317978
>manipulated a front run by insiders

If these “insiders” are representing massive international consortiums and want to accumulate and are sure that this network will be extremely valuable, wouldn’t it make more sense if they pumped the price high and bought up the supply with worthless fiat and keep the price prohibitively high for any plebs to accumulate any significant amount?

I think it’s more likely that it is a shitcoin with terrible sentiment, no retail interest, and no institutional interest (save for some “neat” proofs of concept). All they’ve had is proofs of concept since ICO though. Nothing in production with real enterprises.

>>53318266
checked
And no, the ideal accumulation strategy until either supply is mostly fully diluted or staking locks majority up, is to neuter price action, because 99% of plebs are only concerned with price action, or at least unable to ignore it, such that they will only buy when the price begins to rise. Buy high sell low isn’t just a meme, its the retail playbook.

>>53315951
Beste taal van de wereld kankerhomo

>>53318321
That doesn’t negate what I said and only strengthens it as a point. If Chainlink were a $5000 stablecoin, most plebs couldn’t even buy a full token. And if it only traded sideways, it would have no retail interest anyway. So again, why not just employ this strategy and not allow anyone to buy a significant amount.

>>53318321
>because 99% of plebs are only concerned with price action
yea because we are all in it for the tech

Stinky garbage hahahahaha

>>53318428
First of all, pumping the price to $5k is completely unreasonable with the current marketcap of crypto. But even with a more realistic number, it doesn’t make any sense, because to pump an asset still requires an investment. You’d only want to artificially pump something if you intended to sell it somewhat soon. If it were an asset expected to have true value capture, pumping the price would cost you large sums (bad), and attract lots of attention to said asset (bad). The only potential positive is pricing out plebs, but if those same plebs are already ignoring the asset when the price is suppressed, why bother pumping it? And make no mistake, chainlink is widely ignored already. Even people that supposedly understand the project Ike yourself are happy to dismiss it purely over price action.

>da joos is why my dick doesnt work and I have a cuck fetish. I dont need to have sex anyway I just use my 2 foot bad dragon to ram my ass

The Ride never ends

Sergey had always been proud of his career and had poured his heart and soul into his work. But his personal life was in turmoil. He was in a serious cuckold relationship with a pretty female working at Chainlink Labs. She was the one calling the shots in their relationship, and he had to put up with her constant infidelity and the different bulls she fucked every week. He was aware of her desire to be with other men and allowed her to have sex with whoever she wanted, knowing that he couldn't change her.

Despite this, Sergey couldn't bring himself to leave her. He was deeply in love with her and couldn't imagine his life without her. He tried to focus on his work, but the constant emotional turmoil was taking a toll on him. One day, while at work, he met one of the new employees, he seemed like a young fit bull that his gf could have used. They quickly hit it off and soon found themselves working together on a project. They spent long hours in the office, discussing code and brainstorming ideas. As the days passed, Sergey found himself becoming increasingly attracted to this new employee. He tried to push the feelings aside, knowing that he was in a committed relationship and that it would be wrong to act on them.

But one night, after a particularly trying day, he found himself in a vulnerable state and ended up sleeping with the employee. He knew it was a mistake, but the attraction was too strong to resist. To his surprise, a few weeks later, Sergey took a pregnancy test that resulted positive. He was shocked and unsure of what to do. He knew that he couldn't leave his current partner and that he couldn't raise a child while in a cuckold relationship.He made the difficult decision to end his relationship and focused on building a new life with his employee and the child. It was a difficult and trying process, but he knew that it was the right thing to do.
