it was shilled here before the presale registration started. Then people who were given a presale pool allocation posted the ethereum addresses here and you could get around 2700 link per eth (less than $300). Each pool was around 100 to 300 eth I think. Everyone was scared that crowdfunding the presale pools would get them cancelled, but sergey ended up honoring all of them.

>>56480207
it was also during the ico era so there were countless coins like this being shilled and bought

>>56480229
true, but how many got presale access leaked on 4chan. This is why link will always be shilled for eternity.

>>56480110
yea more like it was shilled at $0.11, but semantics...

>>56480110
it was all the board talked about in 2018 as it ranged from $0.15 to $0.50
reddit was fudded non-stop as we accumulated

>>56480207
That was just the Chainlink team pretending to be decentralized. I know because I tried to enter that pool. It turns out that unfortunately the decentralized Chainlink community is really just the team creating new wallets they control secretly. And no this is not a fat Russian conspiracy it is real life. Luckily for me I bought the LPL presale number 42/186 so I retired already from the revenue sharing gains.

>>56481341
Based LPL kiddo how you doing kiddo?

>>56481347
>>56481341
Bro srs FUCK OFF BACK TO TWITTER
(not financial advice)

>>56480110
i bought at 22 cents but yea about 30 cents sounds good

>>56480110
i was there and never bought

>>56481341
It's not like every single link thread made in the last months isn some kind of paid shill, same happened with Avax, Lunc, Kinetix and Cmos, i rather say that 60% of /biz/ happens to be paid shill.

Dude SHIB was shilled here in 2020. If you had bought $1000 of it the first time they shilled here and sold the top you would have made 2 billion dollars

>>56481419
There was no liquidity for a 2bil sell order.

>>56481419
Yup. And I bought it.

Truebit has been shilled too, but only smart anons care.

>>56480207
I remember one of the questions on the presale registration was "do you live in the US?" or something like that. You just had to answer no and it would go to the next question lol. It was a simpler time.

>>56480110
BAYC was also shilled here and went from .1 eth to 150 eth.

LUNC was shilled here at .00004

>>56480110
Still worth buying LINK? got 20k

>>56480110
>still can't believe LINK was shilled here at 0.30

Yeah, 6 years ago

>>56481511
Probably not worth it, anon. Could be better gains in KeanuElonInuDogRocket.

>>56481508
Do Kwon is in jail

>>56481341
Every day you faggots get more and more pathetic

>>56480110
>shilled

The whole board was literally 90% chainlink threads for 3 years

Shilled doesn't do justice to the significance of the historical moment of 4chan degenerates getting millionaires while reddit and the rest of the internet hated chainlink for being "racist"

>>56481522
Bullish for LUNC tbqh.

>>56481520
Thanks just bought 20k

>>56481541
CZ will be in jail

>>56481568
>

>>56481579
LUNC will never be relevant again

I started my own blockchain around when link was getting shilled hard here and had dropped out of /biz/ for a few years but remembered seeing some of the first threads.

>>56481792

>>56480110
memes on 4chan have about a 9 year maturation rate.

Hi guys Og ico linker here top 500 link wallet i was 100% in link but now im 99% qnt #quant

when will you retards understand that most people here don't even care to check the price of your chainlink shitcoin?

>>56481792
Got rekt with this shit, can't fall for the trap again. I'll keep accumulating more QANX at discounted price as everyone anticipates its public blockchain mainnet launch by EOY.

>>56481541
Have a change of mind fucktard, you're heading the wrong direction.

>>56480110
30 cents? Try 18 cents

>>56480110
I literally only bought it back then because the memes were next level. There was always something strangely ethereal about link

ogs who bought under $1 please join us in the private discord at chainlink.chat

thanks

>>56483935
I'm currently on SUPRA WL, I'm sure gonna make it.

>>56484313
>chainlink.chat
Can you tell me more about it and why would I need to sign my wallet to do this. You do realize none of the true OGs who are opsec wary will ever do that verification, right? t. 2017

>>56481541
Dump this shit for some bunch of SUPRA oracles. the TGE next year will melt faces

>>56481518
>tfw only joined here 4 yrs ago

Fuck me, I could've been rich.

>>56481828
how's your blockchain doing now?

>>56480207
>>56481490
here's some more nostalgia
After the pools got funded by racist zoomers, everyone was panicking and wondering if their contributed eth would get canceled. Especially people who got in late and added eth over the prescribed total limit (there were 3 options I forget if it was 100, 200, 300 eth exactly).
iirc all the pools filled up in about 24-48 hours once listed on biz. Then there was a brutal 2 week period of silence and no update from Sergey. Fudders cried haha it's a scam! (the term rugpull wasn't really around in 2017) Then finally Sergey announced that the presale pools would be honored and a few days later our link magically appeared in our wallets.

Then the ico was held and everyone thought there would be an additional 32 million dollars of link available. But there was only about 2 million left from the presale that would be available for the ico so it sold out in minutes. Sergey announced a block number cutoff for getting accepted into the ico,
true OGs will know this block number.

>>56485506
please share the block number sir

>>56481480
>Truebit
How can you bring truebit into the same discussion as SHIB and LINK? Those bags feeling heavy

4291478

>>/biz/thread/3550003

Eth was shilled here at $0.50
Eth is now $1700 while stinky is only $11

>>56486373
Kind of depressing, reading that.
There are a few random moonshots called on here, but it's hard to sift through all the curryposts. I constantly think about how I was reading the wrong boards/threads when I could have become a millionaire

>>56480110
If it makes you feel any better I was here when BNB came out, and I didn't buy it at 20 cents.

>>56486549
One is Cypherium remember this post

>>56486373
nice find, hope you got into the presale or ico
>>56486549
don't feel too bad. Lots of people sold when link hit hard resistance at 50 cents. That was when the first fud of "can't break 40 cents" started after the sibos toilet memes. It took almost two years to break that price.

>>56485425
She's dead, Jim. It was a CryptoNote privacy coin clone, but I lost interest in maintaining it when I came back around to smart contracts and all the developments that had been made with dapps since I stopped paying attention. Big opportunity cost, but great learning experience overall. I still use it on my resume.

>>56486549
just have to learn how to see a good thread based on the image and title in the catalog

>>56487941
Aw. This space moves ridiculously fast. Are you still interested or are following the development of smart contracts?

There's so much to learn and I feel like I'll keep falling behind if I want to be a blockchain engineer.

>>56480110
Yet no new alpha has been posted since

>>56481326
I remember loading up around 0.20-0.30 and then thinking it was too expensive over 0.50. The presale, the memes, the bread crumbs, assblaster. What a fucking time to be alive. I'm older now and little more racist and i notice a bunch but I look back and I cant believe I made it because I took advice from a bunch of memes on a basket weaving forum. Thanks anons

>>56486579
Is it really only available on MEXC? No defi way to get it?

>>56489035
Yep. They don’t want anyone holding this. The fucking blockchain on China on ONE exchange. Why do you think HK is positioning itself as the Web 3.0 Hub

>>56489035
I tried buying this shit in August, it's completely impossible for me, being a NYfag

>>56488637
I've been watching Patrick Collins videos lately on youtube to level up my smart-contract skills. His videos are enjoyable, and he's building an online learning platform for learning blockchain, solidity, web3, etc, which is great because he's probably one of the best instructors out there on this stuff.

There is a lot to learn, but that's true with any technology. At least this field is relatively new and can be disgustingly lucrative.

how do it feel that avalanche building in own oracle and replace chainlinks? with subnet query we can replace oracle http pull at fraction of time and cost- why not give up?

>>56480110
for at least few years there wasn't a single second without a chainlink thread in the catalog, sometimes, the catalog would be like 70% chainlink threads, I remember buying the dip at $0.17c in november 2017 after the sibos toilet crash, then it went up to $1.20 and we all felt ecstatic, all the assblaster threads would give a dopamine hit like nothing else, we were all young and hopeful for the future

>XRP was shilled here pre-SEC settlement
>KAS was shilled here non-stop
>I (me) am shilling Blocklords now
>LTC was shilled here pre-halve and for years, too
>Monero
This board is a goldmine if you know how to filter the trash out.

>>56489409
Do you remember (I think it might have been 2018 when /biz/ was absolutely dead in the thick of the bear market with just LINK marines left) where the catalog was 80% >wearing pants posters?

>>56486373
kek

>>56489218
I met the lad at Smartcon back in 2022. He encouraged me to become a Developer advocate (being on this anonymous Luxembourgian Mint plant growing image board gives you immense knowledge that dwarfs 90% of the employees employed by Chainlink Labs) AND I FUCKING DIDN'T.

Like a bitch.

But yeah, he's a real inspiration. I've done two of his courses, but I've opted to skip the foundry course to come up with some project on my own.

Why are you all acting like this board is not still 80% Link threads

LINK is basically a shilling success story. I doubt anyone will make good money at this point, but who fucking knows.

>>56481511
I think it might hit $15
>>56481541
>Bullish for LUNC tbqh
Good luck, fren, it's your money after all. Personally, I'm more into stuff like Ride, with real-life goodies I can use.
I've got some LUNC sitting in my portfolio at a loss, not too sure if it's gonna bounce back.

It was still cheap 6 weeks ago.
>1 year, 3 months
Bought it all last month, it was my cake day.
>1 year, 3 months

>>56480110
i saw it shilled at 1000 sats // 10 dollar cents. here. i didn'nt buy because sergey printed 1 billion and gave himself 650m. it just seemed like a scam

I posted Pepe here at 10m marketcap

Could have out gained link in the depths of bear market in 3 months instead of 6 years kek

>>56484232
Same

>>56480207
>sergey ended up honoring all of them
Man of honour, I kneel.
