There’s a saying that in ol’ American Gold Rush in the 1800s close to everyone lost money but there were a few smart ones who realized early on that FOMOing in on Gold during its peak was financially risky. So instead they began to sell the suckers the tools used by the sucker so he could live out his financial delusion; namely shovels and denim pants.

Translated into Crypo, and excluding institutional like exchanges, which project is the shovel of Cryptocurrency?

Hardware wallets like ledger and Trevor is another one I can think of. But purely concerning cryptocurrency project, is there such a project that exhibits the quality of being anti fragile?

Remember when XLM got officially partnered with every financial institution and nothing fucking happened?
I know you weren't on /biz/ back then, but "[X big corporation] partnered with our shitcoin, we're going to the moon bros" isn't actually how it works in real life.

gold rushes are exhausted once the material runs out. railroads were extremely expensive networks to build, but once established they were incredibly profitable for many years as they facilitated transport of goods. oil meanwhile was a brand new market, before the invention of oil engines it was a relatively worthless substance, then practically overnight it became incredibly valuable

I mean if Avalanche Subnets are the Shovels, then Chainlinks CCIP is the rails and minecarts to move the tokenized assets around and turn it into actual value.
ideally you own and stake both already.
For newfags (financially speaking) AVAX makes more sense because the staking is open for anyone while the LINK staking is still limited.
AVAX also has a higher APY right now, so you could stake AVAX and use the Staking rewards to accumulate LINK. The winning move looks something like that.
>>56305246
>got officially partnered
Its not about simple partnerships, its about running Subnets.
Basically everyone wants a Blockchain, literally every Bank wants their own Chain.
now they could hire 50 Blockchain Engineer autismos, spend 1.5 Million dollars and over a year for implementation or they can launch a Subnet with a custom EVM in under a Minute. They can even scale it up and decentralize it however they need it.
And most important: to run Subnets AVAX has to be staked.
>more Blockchains/Subnets launching = Less AVAX in circulation = Price goes up as AVAX is hardcapped and deflationary

C-Chain is gonna be THE Liquidity Hub because it is gonna be the most trusted, most secure and most advanced Public Chain, validated by every validator of the Avalanche network (can scale to Millions of Validators).
also see pic, if only 1% of these 68 trillions get to the C-Chain we gonna be easily at $1000 per AVAX and imo 1k is FUD, it will go higher than that.

I was just thinking that tokenized assets being the gold would best fit OP's analogy. DeFi is all infrastructure, the mineshafts in this analogy, which shows how they are worthless unless it leads to real tokenized assets (the gold/silver). Right now everyone is trading useless rocks (NFTs and memecoins) back and forth, but so far very little gold has been extracted. It's all practice-finance for the big event coming up: asset tokenization.

>I mean if Avalanche Subnets are the Shovels, then Chainlinks CCIP is the rails and minecarts.
I think you got it reversed. Chainlink oracles are what will ultimately allow for the creation of tokenized assets. Avalanche and other L1s are the infrastructure which moves and secures these assets. I guess it's not a perfect analogy since Chainlink can move tokens interchain, but whatever.

of course the Analogy isnt perfect, but it still gets the point across.
>Chainlink oracles are what will ultimately allow for the creation of tokenized assets.
You can take the Avalanche Shovel and dig some Gold sure, but if you dont have the Chainlink minecart and some rails to transport it to the market you wont have a high volume of excavated material.
It also doesnt really work if you dont have the Shovel but just the Minecart because then you will also have low volume because you do all the digging by hand.
Basically what I'm getting at here is that Chainlink and Avalanche depend on each other.
To do what they set out to do at a Global Scale is only possible if these Technologies are combined.
only together they can unlock their full potential.
