is there a repository of available chainlink nodes that developers can refer to?

for example: my smart contract needs the current btc price, >>> import btc-chainlink-node or whatever

>>7822162
--- SO AS IT STANDS NOW --- things are looking promising, but the real test is yet to come. I'm yet to interact with any blockchain. The next part involves printing out the weather (or btc price) from an Ethereum SmartContract, as opposed to just printing it from the oracle (node) itself.
I'm interested to know if anyone else has been playing with the code. I'll also be here for a while to anwser any questions I can.

>>7822319
>install a CL in a Linux box
explain bc I have a Mac laptop and I’m poor

>>7822271
At this point, not that I am aware of. The way the oracle network will route requests is still a bit fuzzy to me. Between the API docs that have been out for months, and what was released on Sunday, a few key things have changed (mostly, I can't find any old docs on bridge types). I'll hopefully get more of this sorted when i start writing my own SC soon.

>>7822384
While I haven't tried, I'd imagine you can get it running on OSX. It would mean installing golang, and probably installing homebrew for pkg mgmt. To get started, figure out how to install golang on your mac.

last bump. No one on biz even tested if the code ran?

Thanks for this thread and sharing your experience and insight =)

>>7822853
It's been up 30 minutes senpai. I literally can only decipher 25% of what you're talking about.

>>7822853
Old /biz/ is dead sadly

>>7822942
Ah, sorry. Just excited. As it stands now, it looks like I'll be able to create a simple smart contract that lets people bet on the weather (basic over/under). Stupid, I know, but if we had access to premium data feeds (moodys, NYSE, CME), we could actually do some of the stuff sergey always mentions in his talks.

>>7822853
Was busy getting wagecucked until now. I started looking at it just now when I saw your thread. I'd wager that 90% of people holding LINK right now have no fucking idea about technical implementation. But whatever, not my problem.

Close your eyes, make a wish, try to clear any thoughts you are having
Take long, slow, deep breathes and put all your focus and attention onto your breathing
iiiiiiiinnnn.................... ooooooooooooouuuut

good. Do this for a few minutes, then -
VISUALIZE yourself becoming rich through your LINK investment
ANTICIPATE the things you will buy with your new found abundance of wealth
IMAGINE as though it is all fappening now in the present moment, for the present moment is all that truly exists
MOST IMPORTANTLY
FEEL the way you will FEEL when that moment comes and you make it!
FEELING THE EMOTION IS MORE IMPORTANT THAN JUST VISUALIZING THE IMAGES!

Now open your eyes, look in a mirror, and recite these affirmations (use/add your own that is relevant to the reality you want to create once you make it)
I AM RICH
I AM WEALTHY
I AM A MILLIONAIRE
LINK HAS GIVEN ME INFINITE ABUNDANCE
It's important to do this when you wake up and before you go to bed, but do it as often as possible. Also hold the image and idea of us making it and LINK being worth $1,000 or more in your mind as you fall to sleep and tug it gently.

WHEN WE DO THIS COLLECTIVELY MY LINK BROTHERS, THE UNIVERSE WILL SEE TO IT THAT CERTAIN EVENTS, PEOPLE AND CIRCUMCISIONS WILL ALIGN AND BE ATTRACTED TO US MOMMY - THAT WILL ALLOW OUR DESIRE TO MANIFEST INTO REALITY!
I love you alllll

If you have to do all this by yourself then what the fuck did we pay Sergey for? Why can't they make a nice graphic UI for me to click a few buttons and set up that node? Pathetic, I'm selling LINK for Mobius rn

>>7823086
GROUND FLOOR kid, if it's a one click solution, you will never make earth-shattering money with it.

>>7823005
I'm actually new biz (summer 2017). I just assumed people would wanna know if their retirement plan actually works or not lol

I'm running a mincoin node. Does it count?

>>7823085
Hey why did you add make a wish to my pasta?

>>7823086
You payed sergey to solve the oracle problem. and unless there are any gotchas related to eth SCs that i havent run into yet, it looks like he did it.

>>7823051
I can't code for shit but I can follow tutorials. Should I even bother setting up a node or do I need fundamentals? And if so what are those fundamentals? I'd love to have a node running from the ground floor, even if it's a baby noob node. It could be a hobby node at first while I stake the majority of my links, and as Link moons I can shift my focus more over to learning the real sauce on my own node. I'm willing to learn but don't know where to start.

>>7822162
I have no idea how to do any of this shit.

>>7822486
I have Golang but having problems properly installing it. I've been using this guide https://golangbot.com/hello-world/

But I'm stuck with the go install command on point 2 of "Running a go program". I've emailed the guy who wrote it for help but he hasnt written back. I'm useless :'(

>>7823179
Alright, meme wig is off. Could you elaborate how you figure the oracle problem may have been solved? I still see an issue where certain data would invariably come from a single source, thus throwing the "multiple sources & nodes" out the window. Even for example the weather stations are unique in that there is only one at a certain location.

Or, feeding in data from NYSE, for example - there is only one NYSE after all.

How do we solve this? What am I missing?

>>7823179

If we setup a node right now, can we stake our LINK already?

>>7823210
Unless you are writing your own adapters (which from what I've seen wont be that common - most APIs deliver data in JSON, which is natively supported) or writing your own smart contracts, do don't need to learn to program.
You will need to learn your way around linux. Curl, package management, etc. If you're good at follow directions, this shouldn't be an issue for you. If all you want to do is set up a node, it isn't super hard.

>>7823113
Thanks for posting this! I don’t know much coding but I want to learn

>>7822162
Thanks OP, unfortunately I'm a brainlet and don't know how to do much in Linux.

brainlet here. Keep bumping this thread. There are plenty of other CS autismos holding LINK on biz

>>7823646
In a link thread you do not need to type that you are a brainlet, we all know.

Does anyone know how the 'promotion' of available APIs on a Node works?
For Instance, If an enduser sets up a SC how would they know which Nodes support which APIs.

>>7822162
Ferret, my man, I'm not a coder so I'm still learning this shit but I followed Thomas Hodges youtube vids and set up a node on the testnet with geth in a linux VM, and I still havent got to the next step. You mentioned Steve's tutorial, where can I find this? Cheers

You have a heavy IT background and it took you a day to follow a fucking tutorial? How dumb are you?

>>7823367
Good question. I'll give my interpretation of the entire thing, and make no claims that I am right. It's just the way I see things.

> Or, feeding in data from NYSE, for example - there is only one NYSE after all.

This is just a limitation of the way the world works at this point in time. Maybe in the future, all exchanges are decentralized, but right now (using NYSE as an example), the information is centralized. If NYSE feeds your oracle bad data on purpose, there is a chance they are feeding bad data to all data consumers.

A better example is the weather. Specifically, how can we (two people who don't trust each other) safely bet on what the temp will be in London at 12:00 UTC on Feb 21, 2018? One of us would write a smart contract that ensures payment to the winner. The other party would look at this contract - they would be especially interested in where we are getting an authoritative answer for the temperature. If I've chosen to use Yahoo weather, and you don't like that, we would both agree on a data source that is considered authoritative BEFORE we lock in the contract. Say we can't agree on one data source? Say you are worried that I have insiders at Yahoo weather? Well you could say "im not making this bet until the 'authoritative source' is designated as the average of 15 different weather feeds". Multiple oracles stake their link, and each pull data from the 15 weather APIs, and then return that data to the smart contract. The Smart contract evals this number, and pays out eth to the winner.

This is the best way I can explain things. AssBlaster does a better job of explaining what the real use cases of CL will be, because he works in that area. I am but a humble packet pusher.

>>7823361
What is the error message you are getting? Don't get discouraged, a lot of these tutorials are really bad.

>>7823805
Well it's supposed to say "Hello world" again like in point 1, but it says "cannot find the package." pic related. I've checked the folders and the files are all there, so I'm not sure why it's saying this

>>7823381
Well, thats the funny part, and I'm glad this will get buried. As of right now, yes, you can stake. BUT, it appears the stake value should be in eth, not link. I deposited 20 link, and it said I had a zero balance. i deposited .02 eth, and it said i had a balance of .02. I'm sure this is something I'm misunderstanding on the backend, and I hope to have it figured out later this week. So far, I haven't worked outside the chainlink node with any blockchains, so i havent needed any stake.

Bump for a real LINK thread. All you Hodling faggots should pay attention. These nodes are what's important.

>>7823381
yep, im making 25 stinkies a day

>>7823561
>>7823589
If all you wanna do is stake (in the future, I don't think its working as intended in alpha), you dont need to code. Hell, you really dont even need to know linux. If you can follow instructions, youll be fine. Steve Ellis has been very responsive on github, and has been updating the readme since yesterday night.

>>7823876
this

bump

>>7823707

>>7823367
As far as I gathered from the most recent conference, data source is already assumed to be trusted. Until everything is decentralised this will always be a weakness. Sergey talks about how the smart contract can be trusted, the data sources are already trusted (as much as any centralised data source can be), and CL solves the currently not trusted data delivery portion--the middleware.

If e.g. NYSE provided false data even now then that would adversely affect many business processes. Bloomberg, Reuters, etc. are trusted because they have a history of providing good data. Unfortunately I don't see how the oracle problem can truly be solved until the data source itself reports its own data independent of outside parties using something like SGX. The closer to the source the better.

>>7822162
Bump for technical discussions. These are the kind of threads we should be having more often.
Have you experimented with using payment APIs in your CL node?

>>7823929
Ferret where is Steve's tutorial?

>>7823727
Great question, this is by far my biggest question mark right now. From what I've seen, most native nodes will be able to do a lot of the work (just JSON Parsing) to be done by the Oracle network. But say you've written a custom adapter for Overwatch or something? Something that requires more than just a simple JSON Parser. I dont know *exactly* how the oracle network will route this request, but it has something to do with the oracle network doing a search for bridge type. From CL official docs:
> External adapters are added to the Chainlink node first by creating a bridge type. Bridges define the task type's name and URL of the external adapter which will run that task type. When a task type is received that is not one of the core adapters, the node will search for a bridge type with that name, creating a bridge to your external adapter.

I own 30K Link, but am technologically illiterate. Someone give me the idiots guide to setting up a node on Windows.

>>7823735
Steves tutorial is just what im calling his somewhat lacking documentation on github. Expect it to get a lot better very quickly, because the shit is kinda scattered right now. Don't get discouraged if its confusing at first. Fun fact, their code released sunday morning didn't compile with the instructions they gave. Steve was very quick to fix it though.
Desu, if you've got the CL devnet running, hooked into geth, on linux, youre almost to where I am. I would wipe out the dev, install the CL node released on sunday, and start running that. Once you've got that running, you can refer to the curl commands in my original post to start fetching off chain data.

>>7823765
very nicely laid out, thanks for your input. even though many things regarding CL are clear to me, its good to read things in a different formulation.
have some asskissing for reporting your steps on how to run a node as well. i'm an absolute mong with this, so its really good seeing people go forward and actually tell it on /biz/

>>7823958
Would that mean we could keep ((them)) in check since the nodes would have to verify the source info. My thinking is entities that where once hidden will always be transparent because of Chain Link nodes verifying the info.

>>7823747
lol, yup, the original setup took me a few hours yesterday, because their readme omitted a step that prepped the environment. thus, when I was compiling, i was getting typecast errors. I had to finally go into the source code and change some data types. The readme has been updated, and anyone doing it today should be good to go.

But thanks for your kind words anon

>>7823859
It's possible your GOPATH / GOROOT is incorrect. Unfortunately, I'd never programmed in go until yesterday, and I'm a Linux guy, not windows. Afraid I'm not gonna be this much help on this. Maybe google "go install cant load package cannot find package in any of" (without the quotes) and see if you can find a good stackoverflow thread.
And hopefully someone in this thread knows go better than my engineer brainlet self.

>>7823735
I believe he meant this readme.
https://github.com/smartcontractkit/chainlink/blob/master/README.md

For future reference, search "Steve Ellis Github" and I think it's the first link (it should be "SC3000 | Github") and it'll be under smartcontractkit > chainlink repositories.

>>7823735
Correction, his github is "se3000". My apologies.

>>7823893
Can you post the output after you start your node
> ./chainlink node
I'm very interested to see what your node is displaying. im having trouble feeding mine stinkies, it only seems to want eth right now.

>>7824309
Unfortunately I don't think CL solves the lie problem. But maybe in the future everything in the world has a CL node. Gas chamber doors that record footfall.

bumping this.

My pre-chemo brain would understand this. My current brain not so much.

I have an unbuntu pc set to mine. I may have to convert to node ops.

God bless you all anons

>>7824005
See your previous comments. Steve Ellis' github is se3000. Search "Steve Ellis Github" and it should be first link. Afterwards, it'll be under smartcontractkit / chainlink repositories.

>>7823958
This anon gets it, and was able to explain it better than me. Right now, if you want data from the NYSE (info that ONLY the NYSE has), and NYSE decides to feed you bad data, you're shit out of luck. Doesn't matter if youre at a bloomberg terminal thats displaying the wrong stock price, or if the wrong stock price feed to an eth SC. This really isn't a limit of blockchain, its a consequence of allowing centralized consolidation of data for the better part of the history of the internet.

>>7824631
God bless you chemo-sir

>>7824690

TY good sir. I am adding your meme to my collective. It is of great quality and will be cherished.

Please accept this one in kind.

>>7823983
No, that'll be later in the week. I am currently wagecucking, so i can't work on this full time. My basic plan is to write an eth SC that is able to just print out the current weather in london. Once that is done, we can add some stuff, such as sending .02 eth to myself if the temp is above 60, or sending .01 eth to myself if the temp is below 60. this will be a PoC that will show SCs can now interact with the outside world.

After that, we can start playing with payment APIs, but i think it'll be a few months until people like Visa/Amex/SWIFT/paypal announce theyve deployed their own ext adapters. hopefully this is what sergey is working on now.

>>7822162
Nice, OP. Very nice. I’ll be saving this thread.

>>7824196
its gonna be a little harder on windows. golang needs gcc, and installing gcc on windows isnt just one click. i found it alot easier to use linux.

>>7824849
So what’s to stop a node from stealing coins?

>>7824309
Mostly: no. In order to prove something is wrong, you need to know the right answer (I think, logicfags correct me if im wrong).
going back to the NYSE - say there is some super secret number the NYSE keeps. it changes once per day. if several oracles ask for this number, and all receive the same answer, its assumed its right, because we don't have a baseline right answer to compare it to.
This is why decentralization is so important, even in data sources. Decentralization prevents a single party from hoarding authoritative info, and potentially misleading data consumers.

>>7824631
from everything i've read, ubuntu might even be a little easier than RH. go get em anon.
side note, running an (alpha) CL node is extremely resource friendly, they arent doing that much at this point bc people haven't loaded thousands on jobs onto them

>>7824797
>sending .01 eth to myself if the temp is below 60
Yea, Sergey back in 2015 mentioned that if you want to experiment with smartcontract com you can just send the payment to yourself to test.

for reference, not super relevant to thread though:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kK3VByPuGDc

>>7824998
Bump for this. The early-majority doesn't yet realize how valuable secure, tamper-proof, decentralized data inputs are going to be in the future
If data is the new oil, decentralized oracle networks are the refineries and pipelines

>>7825065
Who acts as the escrow of the smart contract?

I did follow Thomas' video on setting up Chainlink Node on AWS free tier. I believe he will be releasing new videos soon.

I am gonna try on ec2 instance AMI.

>>7823859
Try adding your go root path to your environment variables

>>7824998
but can't you pick like several data sources during the creation of the smart contract?
like lets go with the super secret NYSE numbers example here, couldn't you simply add other data that would confirm that these numbers are true?
Like payout only occurs when secret numbers and proof of it matches, that proof could be literally anything, like outgoing payments for example.

>>7824631
>>7824730
Godspeed, Marine. We're here to provide keks, hope and support
>>7825086
>escrow
topkek. Centralized, trusted third parties? That's exactly what's going to be disrupted here. That being said, I wonder if CL nodes would be able to augment a contract utilizing an escrow.

>>7824309
maybe, if customer demand is great enough then probably. If consumers wouldnt accept a SC with external data that isnt decentralized then its definitely a possibility

>>7824849
Fair question. When you set up a node, you are prompted for a new node password. Note, this is not the 'twochains' password from the docs (thats for authorizing the CL HTTP gets/posts).
I haven't looked into the wallet that much, I just threw .02 eth and 20 or 25 stinkies into it and moved on. I would assume that the node password controls access to your private key, but I haven't verified this. This will be something ill look into later in the week


lol and all this assumes sergey didnt install a backdoor within the node webserver code, and thus could steal all our eth / stinkies when mainnet has been running for 12 months

>>7822162
Bro i just buy LINK because it's shilled a lot on here i don't fucking know what it does.

>>7825166
bro im a complete noob with this i have no idea how to do that.

>>7825086
>>7825184
fucking lol. Just so you can laugh, but it's a starting point:
https://www.reddit.com/r/LINKTrader/comments/75gvf3/confido_escrow_payments_using_smart_contracts/
>We recently made the switch from Oraclize to Chainlink because of the decentralised aspect of Chainlink. The way we use Chainlink is pretty simple; our smart contracts track packages by using multi-carrier shipping API’s like Easypost and Postmen to view the delivery status of a package. We connect to, and pull data from, these API’s using Chainlink.

>Before we made the switch from Oraclize to Chainlink we relied on one single API to serve us the correct data, which simply wasn’t secure enough when dealing with people’s money. Chainlink allowed us to stay decentralised and improve the security of our platform by allowing us to pull data from several API’s.

>We are bullish on LINK and hope to accelerate the adoption by using it in our own project. There are so many use cases for LINK, our project is just one of them.

Who'd thought the first potential escrow-ChainLink combo was a good JOOSTing

>>7825072
Very well said LT. Sergey wasn't just swinging his gigantic cock on sunday. If we had widespread DLT usage back in 2006-2007, the GFC possibly could have been avoided. Simply, the ratings agencies wouldnt have been able to keep lying for the first part of the crash. tamper-proof and decentralized data would have prevented them from fudging the ratings.

>>7825349

Pls no

This thread is interesting to read.

1) Hit windows key
2) type environment
3) Pick “Edit environment variables” from start menu
4) click Environment Variables button
5) add entry with name GOLANG and path to all your Go packages
That’s on Windows 10 so ymmv

>>7825454
Ok thanks, i did that and tried again but it didn't work. There is already an entry there under System Variables called GOROOT which points to C:\Go.

>>7825176
Again, this is all abstract, but think about it like this. The NYSE has a number, that changes daily, at 12:00AM. So right at 12:01AM, all the oracles query the NYSE to get the daily number. But, the VP of the secret number division is having a bad day. Caught his roastie wife blowing a few pajeets.
So he decides he wants to alter the secret number that goes out to all the oracles. Wants to create some chaos.
The real secret number is 4, but he makes sure 5 is sent out to all the oracles.
All the oracles receive '5'. They all compare values, and see there are no discrepancies.
Here's where we run into the problem. Say you suspect the VP of secret numbers is being malicious. You saw the pajeet bangbang on /biz/, and know this guy is vindictive. How do you prove the secret number is wrong? The only one that knows the real secret number (5) is the NYSE (specially, the VP of secret numbers). How do you go about proving that the 4 you received isn't correct?

>>7825214
We know anon. We all know.

>>7825184
I’m asking who acts as the escrow in a smart contract. Why haven’t you answered it?

>>7825563
Getting this working on windows is going to be a waste of time. You have to install a lot of shit. I would recommend linux.

>>7825573
That doesn't happen. Like you said everyone would be fucked, this isn't a problem with chainlink. Expensive paid APIs will have service level agreements with buyers that guarantee accuracy or else.

>>7825563
Shit. Idk then

>>7825573
but why would the smart contract only rely on ONE datasource (the secret numbers)?
what would the smart contract actually accomplish?
the example is faulty I think.

>>7825416
Lol. Since you asked...
I think AB is about 50-70% larp. I do believe he works in the industry he says, but there are a few things I'm still not sure about. But at the end of the day, we're both pretty bullish on Link, and that's all that matters to 99% of biz. And I find his insight into the 1% of the 1% very interesting. I also believe he is well read in Nash, which is a good thing.

>>7825690
Ugh, but then I need a new fucking computer and to learn LINUX. Effort.

>>7822162
so is it shit or is it good

>>7825633
He answered your question. There is no need for an escrow anymore since that is part of the problem being solved by smart contracts. The nodes act as the "escrow". Chainlink does middleware between smart contracts, blockchains and outside information.

Please correct me if I'm wrong.

>>7825743
Or you just spin up a VM. Or you use AWS like OP.

>>7825725
Can you answer when you send the .01 eth for your smart contract who acts as the escrow?

>>7825755
>>7825633
I think he's asking who acts as the escrow when you're dealing with smart contracts for USD, for example bond payments like swift did.

>>7825771
>spin up a VM
Meaning?

>>7825755
So the nodes act as the escrow?

seems like a lot of work for something ethereum will end up doing itself if it's truly needed for smart contracts.

I made that meme. Here's a few more.

>>7825783
The smart contract.

I'm starting to think you're in the wrong thread.

>>7822162
I can't believe no one has called you 9ut on this BS yet.

Lmao, stay dumb /biz/

How would you go about trying an actual smart contract / get data to something on the blockchain ?

>>7825837

>>7825819
Yes. The nodes running the smart contract that you are participating in.

>>7825842
I don’t really understand.

I want to bet 1 eth the temperature will be over 60 F in NYC tomorrow. Someone accepts this offer. Who acts as the escrow to ensure payment?

>>7825837

whats a fucking VM? And how can I use it if Go isnt installed properly?

>>7824730
take this if you want

>>7825917
For lack of a better word, the smart contract acts as the "escrow", but it is the nodes that run the smart contract. This is how things are decentralized. If there was an "escrow", this would mean a central operator would be needed to hold your ETH.

>>7823113
>>7822162
I set up a VM with Linux 2.6 (debian) and successfully ran the testnet node.
Tried upgrading it after the conference but was too tired/excited to go through the hassle without an updated step by step tutorial by thomas.

Sergey provided the tools that the decentralized oracle network would use.
Now we just need to build it boys.
If we pull this off LINK $1000 EOY.

>>7825986

Kill yourself retard

Is there an official telegram for ChainLink?

They’re very simple questions. We’re not even talking about cash, which is impossible to escrow, we’re talking about ETH.

Man, I really tried helping you but now you have to go read up on your own. I suggest reading the following:

https://blockgeeks.com/guides/smart-contracts/

It's a basic primer on smart contracts.

>>7826228
You're literally the biggest fucking retard. I hope you get raped by a pack of niggers and subsequently tortured to death faggot, you honestly deserve it and I genuinely hope it happens to you.

>>7826106
>>7826027

Reading this thread makes me wonder why /g/ hasn't picked up on ChainLink. Have they gotten salty by the fact that cryptominers have driven up the price for their vidya cards?

>>7826269
So if you control your ETH private keys what’s to prevent you from moving the coins before the contract expires?

>>7825725
You are I are betting on the weather. I say its going to be above 70 degrees, you say its going to be 70 or below. We each put .01 eth into the SC. The smart contract (tamper free, as it living on the eth blockchain) reads the weather at a time previously agreed on. It reads the temp to be 69 degress. You get your .01 eth back, and you win my .01 eth.
So basically, the smart contract holds the eth. Whoever wins the bet gets their deposit, plus their winnings. I hope this clears things up. Others may be able to get a better example.

>>7826269

>>7826106

>>7826370
So how would this work with cash or anything else other than eth?

>The absolute STATE of /biz/

>>7826453
What are you invested in? I want to short all those positions given that dumb money has flowed into it.

>>7823876
I'm not a coderfag, just dropping buy to say thanks for driving chainlink forward even a little bit.

>>7826453
And why do you need ERC20 tokens to have a decentralized Oracle?

yeah nice the CHAINLINKTOKEN is still utter trash and useless since you dont need it to run a node

nice fucking ICO, wew that was needed

they could have done all of this just using ETH or ERC20 NIGGER token

>>7826564
Yeah I’m still wondering what chainlink tokens are used for.

>>7826591
>>7826564

>is too retarded to read a whitepaper

Proof here how many retarded faggot neets there are here

>>7826557
>>7826564
>>7826591
I'm going to say this once:
Get the fuck out of these threads. Go troll or bait the meme threads. This is one of the last bastions of being able to discuss this shit freely, without having to resort to the slack or gitter (which you could lurk to get your answers, if you really are that clueless)

>>7825727
It would only rely on only one data source if no other data sources exist.
This is all hypothetical. As anon pointed out earlier, purposely sending bad data is very very bad for business. And there are SLAs in place that penalize bad data.

A more real world example would be pulling rates to use in financial contracts. AssBlaster has given some pretty good real world examples.

>>7826564
>>7826591
This. Chainlink tokens are not required to run nodes. Why would they have any value?

And the "decentralized" Oracle will constantly require people to feed it centralized data.

What a scam.

>>7825815
Look into AWS. Their have micro, free-tier instances that you can play around with.

>>7826557
>>7826564
>>7826591

Here:
>>7826308

>>7826673
But what does chainlink token have to do with the node?

Someone can just fork it and make it free to run.

>>7826701
ok thanks looking into this https://aws.amazon.com/getting-started/tutorials/launch-windows-vm/

>>7825830
I disagree. Eth has plenty of things to worry about (lol whats scaling) before looking at integrating off chain data. The fact that CL can tackle this at the same time as eth tackling scaling is a good thing.

Anons, what hardware do I need to run a node? I got an old computer running XP standing idle I could refurbish... what distro do you recommend? Linux novice here

Also; thank you for based thread and fuck off you faggots who don't understand how ChainLink works and don't put in ANY effort to answer the most basic of questions

>>7826721
you're right, it's useless. Sell now and leave, so we can discuss our useless technical discussion in peace

>>7826726
If you try to get this running on windows, you're gonna have a bad time. Just saying.

>>7826743
just use ubuntu LTS. I got it up and running last night with 16.04 LTS.

>>7826721
node operators get paid in link. the reason to acquire link is to be able to stake it so your node is more reputable. The more link you have to lose the more reliable that node operator will want to be. big business will not want to go through a node with a faggot that has 10 link to lose.

>>7826756
What is the purpose of the chainlink token?

>>7826786
So why tell me to use a VM you fucking autist?

>>7826812
>>7826721

Pic relevant - it's you.

>>7825837
These are some of my absolute favs, thanks anon.

>>7825863
If you actually read everything I've said in this thread, you'll see there is one major issues im very concerned about. Something that goes against what Sergey said on Sunday. I'm pretty sure im wrong, but so far I havent been able to figure it out.

>>7826797
So the amount of Link is a measure of trust of the data?

>>7826786
Thanks. Ubuntu I got some experience with. Minimum recommended CPU, RAM?

>>7826865
yes

>>7826878
So the data sources are irrelevent?

>>7826697
Yes, sirs. Is scam, sirs. Buy Mobius pls.

>>7825870
That's what I'm working on tonight (or probably tomorrow, gotta try to get to plat before season ends). Gotta walk before running. The idea is that if I can get a SC to print the weather, as opposed to just having the CL node print the weather, we're very close to having smart contracts that actually do useful things.

>>7826812
here's what the whitepaper says ya big ol' tard

"The ChainLink network utilizes the LINK token** to pay ChainLink Node operators
for the retrieval of data from off-chain data feeds, formatting of data into blockchain
readable formats, off-chain computation, and uptime guarantees they provide as operators.
In order for a smart contract on networks like Ethereum to use a ChainLink
node, they will need to pay their chosen ChainLink Node Operator using LINK tokens,
with prices being set by the node operator based on demand for the off-chain resource
their ChainLink provides, and the supply of other similar resources. The LINK token
is an ERC20 token, with the additional ERC223 “transfer and call” functionality
of transfer(address,uint256,bytes), allowing tokens to be received and processed by
contracts within a single transaction."

>>7826860
>Pic relevant

>>7826852
you are seriously one dumb brainlet. go back to computer school.

>>7826950
I'm not a brainlet I'm just a total noob when it comes to anything to do with coding. You nerds don't make it easy for anyone to enter your little geek world.

>>7826852
brainlet, you can run linux in a VM on your local machine.

>>7826872
Think they had system requirements up on the old github.

>>7825942
lol very suprised it took this long in the thread for someone to bring this up. I'd never worked with Eth or CL prior to yesterday. At this point, I'm pretty sure the misunderstanding is on my part. But yes, right now, the node SEEMS to want eth, not CL.

>>7826989
How the fuck do I do that?

>>7826973
computer concepts like VMs and operating systems has nothing to do with coding. and it's not our fault that you're too dumb to learn using the information available to you.

>>7826912
So when you execute a smart contract dependent on the chainlink node is it dependent on one node or on the network of nodes?

>>7825994
Virtual Machine. AWS calls them 'instances'
Go watch a 10 minute youtube video that outlines basic basic AWS stuff.

>>7827011
>you're too dumb to learn using the information available to you which you have no idea how or where to access.
You haven't given me one single point of information though, you're just a smug nerd.

>>7826005
Honestly man, I'd say forget trying to upgrade it. It sounds like you know what you're doing, a fresh install should take you less than 30 min.

>>7827030
So the idea is to run linux on a VM and run go inside it?

>>7827066
why do you deserve handouts? how do you think any of us learned these things? by figuring it out ourselves through trial and error and using the available resources. DYOR ffs.

>>7827109
Not asking for a handout just a link to something helpful would be nice. Anyways forget it I'll wrap my head around it eventually.

Ok. I am following as best i can.

In the end, i have heard of staking and the idea of a passive income (which is very nice). Beyond this, what other benefits are there to jumping in on the nodes at this point?

I am asking because I feel confident enough now that i may be able to pull this off i just dont know if I want to pull my pc mining ETH off of it or if i just want to run a VM for this.

I think the decentralization of it is almost worth so im not fuding but want to know what other people are thinking besides just potential income.

>>7826023
I hate talking about price (esp when i get called a fudder for saying link $60 eoy), but you bring up a really important point.

For the past few months, the main talking point about link has been partnerships. Partnerships with huge financial institutions that will cause the price of link to skyrocket, and make us all rich. Patnerships where these large companies will actively seek out blockchain solutions. From what I can tell, this is really the frame AssBlaster has hung his arguments on. While I hope this is the case, i personally am a little more hesitant.
I don't think the big financial institutions will jump in bed with blockchain / SC / Link just because now its physically possible. i think they will need to see some tangible, working products to draw them in. And this brings us back to your point
> Sergey provided the tools that the decentralized oracle network would use.
> Now we just need to build it boys.
Once there is a SINGLE really useful SC that pulls offchain data, that demonstrates to large companies there IS benefit in blockchain, we're going to the moon. It's up to the community to use ChainLink to build something USEFUL. Something cool, that saves money for large companies. I don't think huge money is gonna turn to blockchain just because its popular right now. Hopefully I'm wrong about this point, and AssBlaster is right. But only time will tell.

>>7827077
yeah, that should do it
also, checked.

>>7827207
just use linkpool.io

>>7826109
At this point, I think you are trolling. But I'll bite. Go read up Ethereum, and Smart Contracts. How are they different that just a normal app running on my PC? Are SCs private or public?
The people in this thread have actually been very polite towards you. No one wants to have to spoon feed basic info, esp on /biz/

>>7822162
>>7822319
Im not interested in this coding shit at all lol, I'm just gonna stake my links

>>7827015
the data from a single execution eventually comes from a single node.

a random node is selected from many to make it impossible to tamper with the data source. this is where you get into "off-chain aggregation" in the whitepaper.

>>7827000
checked.

>>7827440
If a random node is selected how is the quantity of link associated with the quality of data?

>>7826697
> And the "decentralized" Oracle will constantly require people to feed it centralized data.
yea bitcoin is worthless because you eventually have to cash out to fiat.
4/10 you at least got me to reply


>>7826743
Ubuntu. Stay away from windows unless you are very familiar with Cygwin

>>7822162
No anon, you fucking fool. The LINK you stake is at risk, so if your node fucks up, you stand to lose the link.

I'll just hire a nerd to build one or rent it out to a company. They'll get a small percentage of the LINK generated, but I wont be liable for the losses they may incur.

Brainlet here, link is agnostic, so it'll work with neo right? Also is an old ThinkPad enough to install Linux on & run a node?

>>7826973
You're literally too fucking dumb, no one is going to explain relatively easy concepts to retarded neets like you.

I'll provide a detailed google doc if you pay me 1 ETH or figure it out yourself fucking dumbass

>>7826872
Im running it with 2 vcores, 4gb ram. Also running geth from same machine. No problems so far. but then again, my node isnt doing that much right now

>>7822853
Im still wage cucking right this second and when I come home I will look at hothsloths and eat apple pie. I was coding .bat files that looked like the Matrix when I was 12

Does anyone know how to install geth after installing CL

>>7826973
>>7827066
Anon is right, no one (here) is gonna explain things to you. But this doesnt mean to cant learn though. Watch some basic youtube videos on stuff like hypervisors, virtual machines, and operating systems.

>>7827207
There are zero financial benefits at this time. I'm doing this for 3 reasons

1) I'm curious to see what Sergey has created. I've watched all of his talks, and I'm expecting pretty great things.
2) Right now my portfolio is about 35% link. If my PoC on the Eth blockchain works, I'm going to up my folio to 70-80% link, and I'm also gonna sell some traditional assets to buy more link.
3) I was pretty sure no one else on biz was gonna do this, and yall make me laugh when you lose money, so consider this my way of giving back to you autists.

I have 'free' access to AWS, so doing this isn't costing me money. Unless you bet the farm on link, or you are super curious about the tech, I'd say you don't need to jump in yet.

>>7827417
If you wanna stake, you're at least gonna have to set up your own CL node...

>>7827606
Yes, it should work with Neo, but I haven't touched that at all. Whats the CPU / RAM count on the laptop?

>>7826786
So you have it running? Couple of questions...
1) Have you found a way to delete jobs, or at least give them friendly names?
2) Did you fund your node with CL or ETH?
3) Have you played with any external adapters yet, or just used the Core JSON adapters. I've been sticking to the native core stuff.

>>7827485
that's the secret sauce

>>7828046
That's not true. There's a site in development that will let you stake links, I have 10k so gonna be raking in fat fucking gains for no effort at all.

>>7828046
>If you wanna stake, you're at least gonna have to set up your own CL node...
not if you're using linkpool.io

Ferret, How long did block synchronization take for geth?

My mate says I should use aws is that right ?

>>7828046
It's an old laptop like from 2007, may be 1.8gz processor & 2gb ram. Is it too shit?

>>7828473
When main net is live, yes. You want to make sure your node is always online. Having a computer run a node at your house is risky considering power outages, internet outages. It depends on how serious you are taking your Link Node and how much link you staking etc.

>>7828274
linkpool fees are 30% dude

>>7828518
That's what I want to know, too. What are the minimum hardware requirements for running a node?

So how will one find smart contracts to supply data to when running a node? Will there be some kind of marketplace or how will this work?

>>7824683

>Tfw NYSE will be a CL node in 2025.

I don't even have LINK anymore but this is the type of thread we should see on biz more often. Good work Ferret, this was fascinating.

BUMP.

I really want to use LinkPool initially, but I don't want to have to trust them not to run off with my link. Couldn't they implement smart contracts to solve that problem?

>>7823113
I understand link but I have no clue how to do any of that shit. I really would like to learn how but I’m just a physical therapist with no computer skills lol

>>7825743
I really hope you're a woman because you type like an absolute faggot

>>7829089
Estrogen pills are a thing since a while.

>>7823417
I only want to set up a node but for real have no idea it all works. I’ve got a friend that can set it up but idk hownit gets data or how it’s selected to get data. But I don’t want to resort to using linkpool

>>7827000
maybe CL wont be implemented until mainnet

>>7827947

all of these points are rock solid.

TY. I think i may stay out for now. I cant guarantee uptime well enough (farm town / lots of internet conectivity issues and occastional power outages). If i can overcome those ;)

>>7827066
>which you have no idea how or where to access
Have you tried Google yet? fucking moron

>>7827109
I guess helping others and not being selfish wasn't something they taught you in preschool. I hope you end up homeless one day.

AAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
WHY ARE WE CRASHING BROS?
WE WERE SUPPOSED TO REACH PLANET 0.90, NOT GOING BACK TO PLANET 0.60

>>7828573
Sure, but linkpool nodes will be high rep and high traffic. Arguably (who knows yet, but) you might make more even after the fees than if you'd tried to run your own node independently. We'll only know once mainnet is live, nodes are actually being used and we can see the rewards in realtime.

>>7830579
everything is crashing right now except OMG you fucking nard.

>>7830579
accumulation time bitch

>>7830651
SURE, BRO

>>7830143
Thanks going to start looking into all this tomorrow then

Will join you guys when I get some free time. Good luck anons

>>7825893
>being this retarded in a technical thread

You guys realize that NYSE and other big data companies charge for access to their API?

Even if link were to ever work, it would be nothing more than a web scraper.

>>7831580
they will probably set up their own nodes

>>7831821
You understand that a decentralized Oracle can only trade a derivative of the asset and not the asset itself?

>>7827066
holy shit please market sell everything if youre holding LINK and proceed to kys. You have fucking google at your hands and cant figure out VM? It's one thing to not have technical background....but you should at least be able to research and follow instructions- you really need to leave this thread you pathetic excuse for existence.

>>7831964
big corporations that are selling data nowadays will continue to do so but through ChainLink because of technical reason (cheaper, faster, better, more secure)
others will start selling data that might or might not already exist from another source

in the beginning it wont be really different from what we have, but as time passes and more nodes appears it will be a "paradigm shift"


IMO

>>7832093
You need a centralized clearing house to sell actual physical assets you retard. A decentralized oracle is absolutely useless for anything besides sports betting maybe.

>>7831580
bro you need to read the whitepaper and spend some time in the link slack. Chainlink allows nodes to use access keys for paid apis. Non paid apis will be accessible by all nodes by default.

>>7832159
OK bro. Let me know when your dream world becomes a reality.

>>7832122
and your point being?
SCs can be audited, it's kind of the point of this

have you even read the whitepaper/watched the presentations?

>>7832222
quads of lies

>>7832222
I really hope you don't buy any link

>>7826697
there are like 100 chainlink threads on here every day and still these fucking retarded niggers can't be bothered to even glance at the white paper god fucking dammit I hate you you absolute faggot

>>7832122
SWIFT would beg to differ fucking brainlet

>>7832222
https://chainlink-docs.smartcontract.com/#httpgetjson

Look at the auth section.

The release of the software proves the stupidity of the whole project.
It's a classic example of buy the rumor sell the news. Anyone still holding chainlink is absolutely braindead.

>>7823859
Try "go install hello bin" or "go install hello bin/hello"

It looks like it is using c:\go\src and c:\users\xx\go\src by default and searching those directories for the package you entered. Since you entered a full path, it is messed up and searching c\users\go\src\c\users etc.

>>7832479
Wait what

yup its a json parser.


....

is 200k linkies enough?

this tech gives me the biggest fucking boner

>>7826669
Im on the slack, and y'all fuckers need to get on there is you're actually trying to learn anything.
Please. Join the slack so that your questions can be answered. I have no issues teaching Linux if you're genuinely trying to learn. Just don't ask a question and be upset if I reply with a lmgtfy link, cause Google is your friend. The sooner that is taught the easier everything is.

Hey, I'm actually a bit of a linux oldfag, (slackware/debian/etc...)
I haven't used Linux in years...
If I throw Mint or something on my old laptop, I could keep it running as a node and soon stake my stack?
How does the staking work, like the payment end?


Also, for the node stuff, is it pretty simple to instal(no big weird config files?)

>>7835452

>>7835578
>traumatriggers

I'm gonna attempt to spin up a VM Deb node tonight. It worked fine with the Ruby version, so I'm assuming the Golang should be fine as well here. The instructions on the Ruby version were fine, only thing left out were some repository adds that were needed for git. But that's pretty normal. Dependencies as well... Same thing. It was pretty trivial to set up, even for someone that isn't in Linux all the time like me.

>>7826365
If ethwalletbalance < paymentamount contract = null

AAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

IT'S CRASHING

>>7823893

What determines LINK rewards when staking?

>>7827485
The data that the nodes are feeding into the contract is verified through an appropriate algorithm to make sure all nodes have a consensus in their output, if a node feeds bad data it pays a penalty in LINK tokens to the smart contract owner

>>7829110
Even worse

Now open your eyes, look in a mirror, and recite these affirmations (use/add your own that is relevant to the reality you want to create once you make it)
I AM RICH
I AM WEALTHY
I AM A MILLIONAIRE
LINK HAS GIVEN ME INFINITE ABUNDANCE OF SLAVES
It's important to do this when you wake up and before you go to bed, but do it as often as possible. Also hold the image and idea of us making it and LINK being worth $1,000 or more in your mind as you fall to sleep and tug it gently.

WHEN WE DO SEX COLLECTIVELY MY LINK BROTHERS, THE UNIVERSE WILL SEE TO IT THAT CERTAIN EVENTS, PEOPLE AND CIRCUMCISIONS WILL ALIGN AND BE ATTRACTED TO US MOMMY - THAT WILL ALLOW OUR DESIRE TO MANIFEST INTO REALITY!
I love you allllllllllll

So I have chainlink and geth installed

What do I do now? How do I start the node? How do I test out contracts?
