His last day was the day that LINK bottomed out
>>53410091
he's now an advisor.
>I think of it as "hey team, I'm just moving down the street!".

>>53410585
cope

ari doesn't let anyone just walk
accidents will be had involving unidentified flying objects tat are classified the the usaf

>>53410593
Just found out that Chainlink's number 1 developer advocate and onboarder, Patrick Collins, has left the team. Wtf is Chainlink doing to let the guy who has solely kept hundreds of devs interested and working with Chainlink products, to just walk.

>>53410532
he lost half his stack on bancor along with rory and chainlink god LMAO

>>53410607
>Wtf is Chainlink doing [...]

Sipping a pina collada on a beach with your money

>>53410532
wtf? why? hes the only one with good chainlink tutorials on youtube

I guess Kenshi it is

>>53410624
>I think of it as "hey team, I'm just moving down the street!".

he thought he could outsmart sergey but little did he know sergey outsmarted him 3 years ago

Interesting. He's CEO of the new thing he's working on. Also the team is full of linkies. I think it's more just about him wanting autonomy and free reign to pursue what he sees as problems in education and smart contract security.

>>53410532
This is pretty surprising, he was genuinely one of their best employees. His Solidity tutorial alone has over a million views with him openly shilling Chainlink on it; he ran the front-lines for technical content marketing with the entire organization on his back, like non-stop high intensity effort for 1.5 years. Kind of a bad sign, wonder what pushed him to make the decision.

>>53410843
Okay nvm this isn't really bad news, makes sense for him to get a startup bag with his skills, good for him.

>>53410607
>Chainlink
>Products

>>53410594
Cringe. Youre the nerd larp kid from the movie role models. Glad Patrick left, I wouldnt want to be associated w scammers either. Massive upgrade for him.

>>53410843
it's about him making fucks loads of money
auditors are on some of the highest incomes in the space

>>53410986
What do you think pushed him? Same reason he left his hedge fund…he is an ethical stand up guy

kek I walked past him at Smartcon, he's a big guy

Also, the enthusiasm seemed mega cringe in his vids, imagine trying to excite devs with a project that lost 90% in 1 year

>>53410532
>developer advocate
good seeing useless eater gone

>>53410532
>First Adelyn,
I thought she sucked, l now its bad for link?

>then Eric Schmidt
Source? and I thought he did nothing, now its bad for link?

>now Patrick
First time ive heard you guys talk about him, now its bad for link?

>>53411035
well thats what happens when you constantly dump tokens to pay HR roasties millions of dollars

>>53410532
>then Eric Schmidt
excuse me... but WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT NOW?

>>53410532
Massive red flag.

People don't leave teams they think they stand to make shitloads of money at.

>>53411088
People are outright lying now to get us to sell and I've seen this posted the last week or so with zero evidence whatsoever kek

>>53411088
it's called fud retard
adelyn got moved out of cmo into a lower role
eric is still there
even patrick will remain involved as an advisor

>>53411035
you sound like a retarded twink

>>53411102
coping linkchud!!

>>53411142
>even patrick will remain involved as an advisor
What exactly did he do that’s valuable to the company?

>>53410986
The videos will stay up though
Doesn’t seem like such a big deal

>>53411171

Again that doesn't look like proof of Eric Schmidt leaving his advisor role to Chainlink weird

I'm...I'm just not selling is all

>>53411204
and I'm not buying :^)

>>53411454
>>53411204
now kiss :3

>>53410532
Patrick Collins has been a chad from the start, proper good guy of crypto, iI wish him the best.

>>53411476

Chainlink could have easily provided startup capital and spun up a subsidiary that Patrick could have operated out of. That way Patrick could do what he wanted in building a smartcontract audit security company but still have it under the Chainlink umbrella. 100% missed opportunity by Chainlink to keep productive employees and open up a new revenue stream. Another fumble by Sergey.

smells like curry in here

>>53411535
He'll probably apply and qualify for BUILD grants.

But that way Patrick could never audit chainlink as a true 3rd party. I imagine they'll want to utilize his company in the future since he's already familiar with the codebase.

horse rimmer blues.
Jonneh fucked everything.
Then Chainlink hiring him fucked the rest

>>53411156
I'm benching 315 these days but not as many reps. You?

>>53410532
That's bad. Pat was one of the best public facing guys on the team.

>>53410675
KENSHI is killing LINK

>>53411010
No doubt. Patrick's a smart guy, has lots of recognition among devs, old and new alike. It makes perfect sense for him

>>53411615
> But that way Patrick could never audit chainlink as a true 3rd party. I imagine they'll want to utilize his company in the future since he's already familiar with the codebase

I don't think him leaving is that notable but this is obviously cope anon.

>>53410532
I don't care about patrick, he was just an advocate for devs, but alex also left with him and he was one of the actual devs spearheading ccip...

Insider here, Patrick took Ari's advice to make his own company. The idea is to force Chainlink to acquire said company.

>>53412219
Some extreme talent will move on to other things, it's inevitable with this many people skimmed from the very top.
Think of the clout of "ex-Google" and Chainlink will be the same.

>>53412238
kek

>>53412241
Think you're getting severely ahead of yourself there lad. Currently it's much closer to 'ex-Waltonchain'.

>>53410986
He explained it, he's doing his own company. In the end, all those top performers want direct equity in their work. It's understandable, also it's not like he was essential to anything Chainlink is doing

>>53411535
this. i'm glad someone said it

>>53411022
I think it was pic related, my yikes-dar went off when I saw it. They probably just said we cant have you acknowledging the speculative price action of the token while you're a fucking community advocate so lets just say you left in december and did this as a free agent, we'll pay you some severance to make up for this month

>>53412718
>another gym bro
The Epic of Gilgamesh would make a good gym bro movie just a couple a buddies out slaying the bull of heaven together

>>53412718

Honestly this is actually believable and logical. I don't follow his Twitter but they are so fucking psycho about "not commenting on price action" to avoid the SEC etc that this would be the course of action for them if they were being outrageously cautious.

The Chainlink team doesn't make mistakes they measure like 35973957395783957 times and cut once.

He didn't really say anything about the price but still as you said he acknowledged it which might have been enough for them. Idk.

always thought he was a bit of a fag desu

>>53412814
Yeah could be. I remember when I saw it I assumed he'd at least be reprimanded

>>53412718
That's not even remotely commenting on price action.

>>53411035
Do devs usually care about the price of a token that is needed for a project they are developing? You can find devs nerding out over ETH while it was $10, $200, $1400, back to $80, $4000....

>>53413612
I think most devs wish that their audience could muster even a fraction of the enthusiasm they have for price action for the actual technicals of the project instead

>>53411174
Get more developers interested in blockchain. We're only going to make it if we contribute and build it. Don't be a lazy fuck anon, work for your money.

>>53413653
I would but can I even start without a degree in any of these topics?

>>53413559
Patrick could cleanly jerk me for 1keoy no homo

>>53413735
You're going to need to look up a tutorial on Javascript course. See if there's one on Free Code Camp. You could start with the blockchain course below as the whole game revolves around practicing and rewriting the code till you make the connections to what you're doing, but I hear peeps still needing more guidance so they know what they're doing.

>now Patrick.

>>53413735
There’s this guy called Patrick who used to work for chainlink labs, he does all sorts of courses and tutorials and stuff

They realize KENSHI is 1000x better and cannot compete

>>53410532
>leaving a shitcoin team after a successful pnd
good for him I guess

>>53410532
He started an auditing firm based on all his experience with audits within Chainlink, and it's staffed by linkies.
He's still working closely with Chainlink.

Except for countless missed deadlines, pushbacks, a total and complete fumble of staking v0.1 roll out changing terms immediately, a total miss on low latency oracles that pyth took over, and about a dozen other things they fucked up

kek this. CCTP just faded CCIP and CL has done nothing, shit marketing, letting CCTP get the major news.
