Does this mean the SDL pool has earned 37000 link in less than 48 hours?

>> No.52788180

>>52788153
no, it means that thsi "liquid staking" is not very liquid. the liquidity is 37500 LINK and if a node or some whale checks out, or god forbid something goes wrong and everybody wants out, it ain't so liquid no more.

I'm actually now kinda excited (Stockholm?) after the initial linkpool debacle. After stake.link upped SDL to link stake ratio twice by 4x, now you need 3.33 SDL to stake a single link. Initial estimates for LPL were 2.5 LPL to stake 1 link. But now the price of SDL is currently $0.50 instead of the illiquid $2 (before collapse), which is good for poorfags like me who were not able to accumulate enough LPL to stake link tokens. Also the SDL pool consists of the top node operators and the total amount of SDL tokens is currently 260m (will increase for each new node participation) which is 25% of the total link supply. If all links are to be staked, and the current SDL pool remains the top one, then I think it is safe to assume that you'll be able to stake 1 link per 1 SDL token. I think that SDL is still overpriced, but when the amount of SDL needed to stake 1 link is >10% of link it will be a good buy, and then token would scale proportionally with the links price.

Why would you trust sdl with your link? You've handed your link to a protocol run by devs who have disclaimer over a whitepaper and now a history of rugpulling by forcibly migrating their protocol onto a new contract in which the original holders now own nothing. All you've got in return is an IOU token that the devs say their protocol will give you your link back for. At any time they could disable the contract, migrate your link to some new contract, and then set terms of what they think your IOU token is worth. The dao governance is effectively a smokescreen false guarantee of protection as the protocol devs were the ones who set the distribution in the first place. If you put your link on SDL you're basically putting your link on bancor after the haircut and thinking it's a trustworthy contract.

It's just insane how they thought this could ever go well when their protocol was still effectively tied to the trustworthiness of the devs, which is now non-existent. Let alone the SDL token itself.

The ratio increased 4x yesterday at 2:00pm EST (with about 6hrs notice), and then another 4x today at around 7:00am EST (with about 1hr notice). They announced both on their twitter. I get why they didn't communicate any of this in advance...I mean, there's something to be said about their creating a level playing field. Everyone had about 72 hrs to figure out how these systems worked and decide on a strategy, which had to be fluid because for example they were announcing the 4x increases on their twitter with short notice, LINK/SDL is the only pair on the market (so you're really having to value it against LINK, not USD), etc. It's been an interesting few days. I feel for a lot of anons who got screwed around, though. This was an exercise in competitive critical thought.

SDL stakers get early access to LINK staking as the actual pool widens. So when V.0.2 rolls out and the total pool capacity goes from 25mm LINK to 75m LINK, if you're staking SDL you will get early access (in the same way that SDL stakers got it this time).

Well there you go, you're staking and that's all that matters.

Was pretty surprised when early access didn't fill the pool up immediately...was even more surprised that I had almost 3 hrs once general access went live to get in before it closed. Wasn't all for nothing I guess...most of my staked stack is liquid now.

You're giving your link to a protocol run by people who sold a derivative token for a protocol and then forcibly migrated you to another protocol and another token which is effectively worthless, all whilst their original project then continues. Whether that was intended as a scam its the exact same net result at the end of the day.

For link staking on SDL; in return for giving this protocol your link you get given a derivative token used by the protocol, and a disclaimer that says the protocol sets the conditions of what the derivative token is worth. The protocol is run by the devs who force migrated, supposedly governed by a dao, but that was in itself set up with a token distribution determined by the force migrate devs. The protocol profits the original node business of the force migration devs that they migrated you out of, as their node gets to use your link and you get to hold a derivative token. You don't see the imminent derivative token forced migration rugpull here? Seriously?

You're holding your link there at a ridiculous level of risk for a 0.5% gain over the community pool. It's bancor haircut 2.0 waiting to happen and with a rugpull as its genesis. Why anyone has their link on there is beyond me.

If you had properly understood the implications of what they were offering, you would have been paying much closer attention to what was going on earlier this week. I was refreshing their twitter every 10 mins after the first time they increased the ratio 4x, because the implication was obviously that they'd do it again before gen access, and there was no reason to believe there would be 6hrs notice again. Just required a bit of critical thought, but none of this was rocket science.

What are you talking about? If the 15 top node operators -- who have been maintaining the Chainlink network since its most nascent stage --steal everyone's money, then the Chainlink network itself is worthless and was so all along. You understand the need for a reputation layer for Chainlink nodes, correct? How can economic activity between any parties take place absent any system of measuring historic reputation? And as the networks expands, do you really think it will be maintained solely by Chainlink labs? What then would make their network any different from, say, Visa's or Mastercard's? Or even Swift's? You're not seeing the big picture and you don't understand the principles underpinning the economic model.

CDL will operate as a kind of guild that maintains the network as it grows. It represents the largest stakeholders pooling their resources to act collectively in the best interests of the network. By paying SDL holders (i.e. node operators and those community members who best understood what was happening and what the stakes are) they incentivize behaviour from the most interested parties that benefits the whole network.

SDL rewards paid in link (i.e. distributed revenue) for the largest holders will almost certainly pay well above a comfortable salary as the network scales, and that's in addition to the yield gained from simply passively staking link with the protocol. This salary will be paid in link, which will become among the most valuable commodities/currencies on the market. I'm realizing now that in a strange way I'm essentially employed by this distributed network. My incentives are aligned with it in a way that would never be possible in a traditional corporate or governmental structure.

>> No.52801351

My mistake, please read ***SDL*** for "CDL" throughout.

And obviously no one at Linkpool or SDL can talk about things in the above terms given the regulatory environment. But it's all there for anyone to see (and for anyone to own, given the current mercifully low price of SDL).

The moment these nodes pay out their first cut of revenue, the market will understand just how profitable they actually are for the first time. There is a nice parallel between what's happening now and Google's revealing their balance books during their IPO. And this is also before other major players formally announce involvement/seek admittance or partnership (note that T-Systems is currently running one of the nodes securing the ETH/USD feed, which is again there for anyone to see). I think one's ability to establish ownership over any significant portion of SDL and its revenue will vanish very quickly as things play out.

Anon, with general access, you could move link into a new wallet and stake from there. Maxing the core link pool means putting all your Link into there. If you were wide awake and had internet connection, there was zero reason to have SDL at that point and not go all in on regular Link to stake.

Look you fucking idiot, who do you think receives these network fees? Oh I don't know, could it be the NODES that facilitate transactions between data providers and data requestors? Wouldn't that be considered their source of...hmm, what's the word...REVENUE?

The more the nodes are used, the more fees are paid to them. With staking V0.1, the CL network has the public collateral required to collateralize the movement of much more valuable data in far greater quantities than it has so far. The fees network users pay to node operators will increase exponentially. Basic blockchain price data queries have been enough for all of these nodes to build viable businesses over the last ~4 years. What happens as the network scales?

You seem to be unable to see the economic model without the help of the kinds of corporate/business terms that no one involved can use in the regulatory environment. If it acts like non-diluting equity in a dividend-paying organization at the ground level of a completely new networked economic system, why would I need a fucking boomer on TV to call it that for me? It's all in the open -- anyone can see how the money works and identify the places in which it will start to collect.

>>52801600
I'm not even in the telegram, let alone the twitter or somehow a paid advocate. I don't need "discourse" to make investment decisions that are based on principles. And all the shares of SDL given to node ops are vesting, which is not unusual for stock options paid to employees of any company (again, terms which no one involved can use).

Please enlighten me then regarding price feeds. Data requestors (currently daaps/protocols, and soon economic participants in the greater market) pay data providers (those who own valuable data, of which price feeds are only one category) for accurate and real-time data. Nodes trustlessly guarantee the validity of the data being transacted, and all participants pay them proportionately for this crucial service without which the transaction couldn't take place. What have I not understood?

>>52802041
Sure. SDL stakers receive 20% of fees paid to the 15 largest and oldest node operators (for the services described above). 100k SDL represents 1/2,600 of that 20% cut for life. You're buying direct exposure to all the money these nodes will ever collectively generate, before 1. new nodes start to join this collective organization (and pool their revenue into it too), and 2. the Chainlink network begins to expand its service offering (to things like CCIP, etc), which these nodes will facilitate. And your 100k SDL is liquid -- do you think the market cap of this collective will stay at like 2mm USD forever? Will 0.16ish LINK always be able to buy you 1 SDL? It seems undervalued to me against Link. Granted, the variable we do not know yet is just how profitable these nodes are. That makes it difficult to discuss in terms of math beyond the above known variables.

Well fellas, I'm going to have to concede that the fee sharing stuff isn't adding up now that you make me look at it closer. But surely some information has been withheld. I don't buy that Chainlink labs and the 15 largest node operators all went in on something that at appears to be at best worthless and at worst a scam. That doesn't even make sense. I am now filled with fear, uncertainty and doubt concerning my investment.

Unironically though I return to a point I made earlier in the thread:

"If the 15 top node operators -- who have been maintaining the Chainlink network since its most nascent stage --steal everyone's money, then the Chainlink network itself is worthless and was so all along."

Something's not adding up, and I'm willing to wait more than 3 days from protocol launch to find out what it is. Though I do feel a bit retarded now, because 20% of 7% split however many ways was not what I'd initially understood.

I was there and there’s no copium or relief coming so I am writing it and Jonny off as a total loss.

I felt similar. It was a bolt of clarity bordering on paranoia and I was ready to dump my link bags. In the end, I just didn’t stake all my link and didn’t buy any more during the recent dumps. I still have sdl like a chump. Don’t let them make you forget the years of dreams and future capital improvements by completely writing off link.

As an outsider who never bought linkpool, I think you guys are a little bit nuts to throw this on Sergey. The entire idea behind link is to use the power of financial incentivization to prevent bad actors, through staking. Linkpool is just simply proving why that's necessary, as greed is an unavoidable part of human pathos. I actually think all of these bad actors only strengthen why link is needed, as they're all simply acting in their best interest, and the only ones who haven't so far are chainlink themselves (they could easily be a top 3 shitcoin if they'd promote themselves like one).
Also the only retail who got massively fucked are those who bought lpl at high prices, which is really just degens on bancor, who got fucked by bancor far more. People who bought linkpool at launch, as long as it wasn't in massive amounts, still did fine and will come out with a profit, although its going to wind up that just simply buying link will have been the better play unless you managed to flip some linkpool along the way.

If you actually listen to what Sergey is saying, he's basically autistically inferring that without proper financial incentivization, everyone will act in a greedy manor, its just game theory. He's never explicitly endorsed any of these companies, at best he's said "hey, look you can use these guys" because they work with his own company. But if you can't put 2 and 2 together and do the game theory math for yourself, then yeah you'll continue to get fucked. If you go not by what they say but by their actions, the only ones who haven't acted in a completely greed focused and selfish manner is chainlink themselves, and even then that's only to the extent they haven't been as bad as they could be, they still used premined tokens to fund themselves.
>>52804344
checked and again linkpool is separate from chainlink, for as much as people intertwine them, if you actually read anything on the link site they have never officially endorsed any third party staking protocol, or bancor, celsius etc. It was always those companies trying to force an association with chainlink, as they had far more to gain.

Ahh, okay I see it now. I'm back, but my ID may have changed. Let's think about the actual receipt token stLINK itself for a sec. Now that staking is live, link can be staked on mainnet. The ERC20 token itself contains the value of one link that has been staked in the stakedotlink protocol. The node operators who now stake in stakedotlink are facilitating the movement of many billions of dollars worth of value and have been for years. They are very, very profitable, and they are paid in link. Holders of the stLINK token are about to learn just how profitable. 5.5% of their profits are now going to be imbued into that token, stLINK. You want staked link. Who currently has access to that liquid token? Solely SDL holders, as these are the node operators and now members of the public.

When we see this profit reflected in the first round of rewards, whenever it’s posted, it will become clear what has happened. The actual stLINK token itself, of which there are currently only 787,000 or so, will experience a liquidity event. Remember that there has been no USD value yet assigned to stLINK on any explorers or on the platform. Imagine the arbitrage effects that will take place once these profits enter the picture. It’s suddenly a really, really valuable token. You need stSDL (and by extension SDL) to own stLINK. You need LINK to own stLINK. These two tokens will increase in value accordingly. Stakers already in the community pool will be delighted as the value of their LINK rises. But they are earning rewards in LINK. As a staker in SDL, that I am earning rewards in stLINK which is liquid. I have access to this liquidity event from day 1.

SDL has said they will expand into the community pool as demand increases, which it will as more and more stLINK/LINK arbitrage opportunities open up and they can “mint” more stLINK using the community pool’s staked LINK. Could it not be that stLINK is the actual official staked link token, and this gradual release of liquid staking is what allows liquidity to flow directly into the LINK ERC20 tokens themselves?

1 SDL would then represent, in theory, a maximum of 1 opportunity to own liquid, staked Chainlink. The total number of SDL is 260,000,000, or just over a quarter of Chainlink’s 1,000,000,000 total supply. This seems to be in practice a way of guaranteeing that the largest and most profitable node operators can only ever control just over a quarter of the total LINK supply, even as staking rolls out fully. Only 260mm LINK can ever be staked in the protocol, which is owned by the node ops.

>> No.52807947

>>52807928

In the mature network anyone can spin up a node, anyone can run a DON of their own, but the LINK securing those networks will be locked as collateral. That would also make SDL the only way to ever own liquid, staked LINK — to have access to your liquidity even as it draws value unto itself. A process backed by the most secure network to ever exist. And in a mature network where SDL (a staking position)and LINK are almost 1:1 as staking rolls out, wouldn’t there be a slight premium on SDL as a liquid asset?

The real redpill is that 1 SDL actually equals 1 LINK on a long enough horizon. That’s what’s being traded, insiders who designed the protocol understand it, and the LINK/SDL pool exists give the community a chance to get early before the prices equalize (even as LINK increases in USD value).

And I gotta say, there's something significant about the first datafeed to be secured by stakers is the ETH/USD feed. The arbitrage on stLINK/LINK will happen in ETH terms. A truthful, universal datapoint for the entire network regarding the relationship between ETH and USD needs to be absolutely unquestionably secure for liquidity to flow into the network at scale. It's the necessary first step, which they've taken.

Real money not tied to debt -- massive liquidity -- will suddenly be present across ETH mainnet and it will flow into it via the SDL protocol and the LINK token. This is the singularity.

And I wonder if any of this is related to the phantom 80 Trillion USD the boomers keep whispering about?

>> No.52808180

>>52808031

Finally, we should consider the liquidity buffer present in the stakedotlink LINK pool. If the value of stLINK itself rose exponentially, everything I described above would be predicated upon stLINK not hitting the market all at once. Sellers of stLINK would be almost instantly replaced, but the network would need an actual cryptographic guarantee that this core of liquidity housed in the protocol could only be released at a controlled rate.

You can see that they've thought about this and implemented the liquidity buffer dynamic. It's not there to keep you bag holding if the USD price drops, like other anons are saying. The liquidity buffer is there to make sure you stay strapped in for the duration of liftoff, at least until we hit the stratosphere. Liftoff commences when stakedotlink doles out its first round of rewards. sergeyrocketpic.jpg

It's obviously being divided between the LINK in their staking pool, which at the time of the tweet was around 200,000 link full I think and had been open for less than a day if I remember. Taken in that context it seems like it puts its 90 link received in line with what you would expect maybe 500,000 in the community pool would yield. They're being cryptic.

Oh what's that? Here's an interesting LINK transaction, in fact, the very first that the actual staking contract made. Look: 0xc98e84d3ee80abc2a451310b5f7f366f495e2bf7b83c46a12dbbe1ca9c646ef2 it receives 500,000 first, all at once, which was above the 7000 capacity. This is almost certainly the node operators, organized by linkpool, initiating the SDL protocol and staking their link all at once. Their staked link is the initial staked link; they provided the initial liquidity.

It's why LINK/SDL is the only pair...it has no liquidity against any other asset. LINK is now a real currency too because it's traded AGAINST asset that's connected to real world value (the earnings of node operators). LINK is in the process of being given actual intrinsic value. BTC = energy, ETH = ownership, LINK = data. These currencies are backed by the most basic elements of a social structure in a way that other currencies are not.

>no no no no. there are only 37.5k link that are actually liquid
Yes there are 37.5k link liquid until the protocol desires to open more up. This is the liquidity buffer, the purpose of which I mentioned above.

>SDL can be increased at will and will be definitley minted when new nodes are added

Show me anywhere we see that SDL is indeed minted, i.e that there's no hardcap. I understand that new node ops get SDL given to them...but from the existing supply held in the treasury.

>insiders like you who are throwing this gibberish out in an attempt to confuse the public

There is likely a hilarious dynamic here because I'm actually an outsider who's talking to someone who's likely actually an insider. I'd love to be an insider -- please, someone invite me to the party. My job is boring and dull; I'd love to work with the network. I'm not even a fintech or comp sci person...I'm a non-specialist who can understand this stuff well enough to see the big picture in context. I see what's happening around me.

>the real redpill is that we were all rugged and your mental gymnastics are bordering in mental psychosis

The real redpill is that it's habbening. Go down your portfolio and look at which projects have usecases that need to be enabled by Chainlink services. That money is now flowing into stakers' pockets.

And also think about the fact that there have been noticeable upgrades on ETH mainnet over the last few days. My transactions are happening faster and I'm paying less gas, and my hardware wallet following an ETH app update is behaving differently and in more efficient ways. The stake link operation (and any operation on the SDL protocol) only require one ETH transaction even though they are more complicated tasks. Clearly network upgrades are taking place across ETH mainnet during this process. By some means the new core of locked public liquidity in the chainlink network seems to have allowed new features to become available to mainnet

>> No.52808741

>>52808689
And by extension we can assume there is some connection between the launch of the SDL protocol and ETH mainnet upgrades.

Perhaps this is why we see ETH appear as an asset listed in the SDL interface too. The next step is revealing the liquid ETH staking side of the SDL protocol, which captures even more liquidity for LINK stakers who are actually securing the platform itself and collecting fees. And I would trust a Chainlink based liquid ETH staking option over anything currently on the market, wouldn't you? 1 SDL stETH wouldn't be pegged to 1 ETH by arbitrage or any market process like that. It would literally be your actual claim of ownership over one ETH staking on mainnet, which claim is itself a liquid asset. This IS ETH staking.

And all those who panic sold their LPL or sold their SDL after the migration will realize that they were actually much earlier than they thought...and they're missing a party with very interesting guests. Surely node operators for other sidechains running on mainnet are waiting for a liquid staking solution to arrive which would increase their functionalities or enable new features.

These node operators join SDL one by one as DAO members. Web2 and tradfi entities join as both Chainlink node operators and data providers, and they recieve SDL voting rights. But SDL holders, including early members of the public via LPL, (via LP) are the largest stakeholders in this DAO of stakeholders. They're not getting diluted and they bought it at the absolute ground floor. I would not be surprised if holding LPL at the time of the snapshot turns out to confer greater benefits than people realize down the line. They now have a way of knowing who their long term holders are. In time you may be given exclusive access to stake your like with their specific node and get a cut of NaaS as they'd promised, for example. This is still possible as the SDL protocol, which is an underlying staking protocol itself, matures to allow for selective delegation.

The significance of this will likely resound in history. This DAO of stakeholders, including some of the most significant market participants (and including Chainlink labs itself) will have stewardship over this network.

>> No.52809110

>>52808951
And I think I should also note too that SDL as a token is actually a powerful incentive layer in the network's real-world meta, because it incentivizes new node operator participants to join the DAO so that they receive the ability to keep their own staked LINK liquid. Look at this as a basic socio-economic model: the node operators are economically incentivizing future node operators to act as a group in their own interest and in the interest of the staking protocol itself. This is real governance, because all parties have the two most basic components of a governing body: real, established reputations and big money on the line. These entities have, drumroll please, a STAKE in a healthy and scaling Chainlink network.

What did I get wrong?

Look at what's in pic rel. At least the bottom two rungs on this ladder are already happening, and 7% or whatever of that money is about to flow into staked Chainlink. Market cap of Chainlink is what, only like 3 billion? How do you think this plays out? Again, we have no idea yet what the USD value of 1 stLINK currently is. And all of these numbers are from before the CL network scales, which staking will allow it to begin doing.

And what do you think "Web3 Infrastructure Revenue" really means? Surely a universally interoperable liquid staking solution, secured by Chainlink via SDL, would be critical infrastructure for all blockchains. Don't you see where this is going?

I'm not saying 870T, though given maybe a 40 or 50 year horizon it becomes imaginable that smart contracts would be facilitating that level of value transfer.

What I'm saying is that DON revenue and web3 infrastructure revenue is already significant, but none of that revenue is entering the defi ecosystem. SDL is clearly the gateway through which that liquidity will begin to flow into mainnet. Where will that liquidity begin to "pool"?

They won't have a choice. The value added benefit of DON tech is too high; the technology saves entities that use it too much money in too many ways for bad actors to prevent its adoption.

It'd be like looking at the emergence of oil based energy in the 1900s and saying, "the coal producing nations and entities that benefit from coal will never let that catch on because they have too much to use". That's not how it goes with truly valuable new technologies.
