So this is a little different. Most people weren’t sure about link 100%. We knew it would be big, if it worked.
Pre main net was an exciting time, but it was highly dependent on the team delivering.
Once mainnet dropped we knew it wasn’t about to be anything but a sure thing.
We used to fud for fun.
We tried everything to keep Reddit from finding out.
It worked, but something changed with Zeus capitol showing up.
Our fud became a weapon to manipulate the price rather than keeping people we didn’t like out.
Things evolved from there and now we’re waiting for the day the system runs fully dispelling all the fud.
It’s on its way and now they’re just fudding you rather than the protocol or the team.

Now it feels like we are washed up baggies like NEO holders after an insane high but more cultish like XRP holders.

To be clear, i didn't sell. As i stated. But i think i should have swung when i had the chance.
I don't think the opportunity to swing will come around again and i won't feel comfortable trying as it is too far along in development now to take such a risk i feel.
Back then i had much less money available too. I had a lot of wasteful expenses that are now being put solely into link.

2017-18 had far more brutal fud and was much higher iq
until some of the early announcements in late 2018 we really were just running on swift connections and not much else

it has been interesting seeing the project grow, taking all the academic talent, shifting to only hiring faangs, the big name advisors that are now on board etc
for a little start up what they have created is really impressive, so much from back then is dead, while chainlink has an essential monopoly in a core part of the stack

by comparison, now the fud is just boring and repetitive
some are demoralized about not taking profit or enough profit in last bull so you do see a lot of negativity here
i think the biggest criticism is that chainlink took too long to monetize properly, staking should have come at least a year earlier given that it's really pretty limited and could have been a good bull market driver, topping out at $50 was pretty underwhelming given how it had performed earlier in the bull cycle

when you think about it, it has been similar to eth's monetization timeline, beacon chain = v0.1 but eth got the big initial run that we have never really got

but fuck, i'd take this any day of the week, haven't worked for years, am working on a chainlink related project.. all from a 5k investment kek
so many here got fucked over by bat or req or whatever, link actually survived and retired or semi-retired many of us
now with ccip, we should get our next big push upwards and should be nicely for 2024/5 bull

Holding through the last cycle was hard as hell, and I failed for a little bit, which resulted in me having a 10th of the stack I otherwise would've had.
The fud here was way more potent back then because you couldn't really confirm any of the breadcrumbs, and it was totally maddening.

Right now is frustrating in a different way because you can easily see where this is heading, but no one knows when we're going to see the price reflect the progress being made.
Last bullrun, I just checked out and didn't really think about crypto for a year or so, but this time things are still moving in a way that's keeping me engaged.
It's like we're in some time warp where the night before Christmas lasts years and years.
The only way my mindset has changed was that I used to think that if things didn't start moving significantly before 2024, I would sell.
Now I'm firmly never selling

It wasn't hellish at all, but it felt surreal. Because if you had a 3 digits IQ and autism, you'd have understood plain as day that Chainlink was the key to unlock value for the entire space, only biz saw it, and it was just a matter of waiting for the rest of the market to figure it out, and it eventually kinda did, going from stuck behind dentacoin the coin for dentistry (lol) to reaching the top 5, performing better than almost anything else during that period, without vcs shilling. What was hellish was the bullrun, when absolute braindead normie tier garbage, the doge, ada and nfts and sbf sol kike nonsense pumped while link comparatively under performed, losing ranks below 20, and link hasn't recovered its momentum since despite the bear market.

There are obvious similarities with ccip launch with the original eth usd mainnet, how the market is still completely sleeping on what innovations ccip will enable. This is true bear market shit. Whether ccip can kickstart another link run however remains to be seen, I'm hopeful for the long term but short term price action is less obvious than it was in 2018 because of the fed situation and how infested with abhorrent vcs crypto is now. It's why og links who didn't sell at 50 and hate themselves now are still deluded and confident long term.

It doesn't matter too much. It will gain some percentage of Eth's gains no matter what.
If ETH goes to $10k I don't think it's that likely that LINK doesn't at least wick to $20. And I mean there are better scenarios than that, but as far as crypto goes LINK is comfy in the sense that it's a solid project that has value.

I didn't work out to exit. Might as well have left it in index funds the last 5 years.

Doubt altcoins ever coming back. Corporates run practically every grift and scam and tried every way of shilling in the book. They are done

Two weeks not enough even. We are used to you fallacy Sergey cum. I dumped my bags already for NXRA and caused the dip. Anyone that tries to accumulate again is my exit liquidity.

No, because it was constantly doing something. It was basically in a slow but steady bullrun against BTC, ETH and the entire market. It was the best performing coin in those years flat out, and it culminated in the 20$ peak in 2020. This time it's a billion times worse because we aren't outperforming anything, we're underperforming against way less risky assets and are losing ranks. We fell from rank 5 to 20.

Nah this is bad. Back then we all thought in 2023 everything would be up and running. Instead what we got was Sergey blue balling us at the peak price about steaking only for them releas a beta version when the bull started.

I remember people claiming Link would have traded at triple digits after staking was released.

It's incredible how /biz/ is always wrong about everything

Would have been possible, but the mEth tankies got tricked and made a lot of people a lot of sats shorting

Back then there wasn't someone dumping Bitcoin every time Link tried to pump, but the fud on biz was constant just like it is now.

There were a lot of strange market movements around Link back then too, but they weren't as blatant about it as they are now.
