He is a walking disaster, but smartly kept it quiet by avoiding the spotlight like his peers. Still, he is a billionaire due to dishonesty and being a smart con.

Sergey is lucky that people like SBF and Do Kwon exist, but mark my words he will see his day in court. He is as much of a scam artist as any of these people, a billionaire of no merit.

I miss the GravelCoin days.

Most of the 2021 top-buying newfag baggies on here today have no idea how comfy those days were, and what a blatant P&D scam Chainlink proved to be back then.

Sergey has done a good job of sanitizing that time period and buying expensive corporate celebrity endorsements to try to clean up the image of his VeChain-tier vaporware security scam.

Now that Binance is dead, all of these shitcoins are going to finally die.

I admittedly sold most of my stack after staking turned out to be a literal BlockFi style wallet. Nothing is "Secured" and no one talks about eth/usd price feeds being "chainlink secured with staking"

Basically, the entire reason I bought was the tokenomics of securing tools with collateral and reputation. What he produced was a Celsius style system where he'll give you 4% in December when tradFi pays 5% for insured T-bonds. None of the build tokens either. Anyone else and /biz/ would've turned on him by now

I think I’m not the only one on here that realizes that the Chainlink discussions here aren’t organic at all.

A complex mix of paid shills and bots post memes and start conversations. Real anons browsing /biz/ think these convos are real and start making convos themselves. Then when things die down, the bots and paid shills start again to capture new bagholders.

That's actually not what they said. They lied about tokenomics my man. Sergey said back in 2019 that staking was around the corner. What we've had for the last year is neutered, extremely limited staking which is a digital equivalent of a paperweight piggy bank.

No one said they'd be dumping a $7 shitcoin, people assumed we'd be $80-100 by now based on ecosystem use and securing smart contracts
