Take a look at the top BTC and ETH wallets. If you have 10,000 LINK that puts you in the top 3000 wallets (roughly). Now take a look at the 3000th largest BTC wallet.

https://bitinfocharts.com/top-100-richest-bitcoin-addresses-31.html

The 3000th BTC wallet has about 626 BTC, which is about $6mil right now.

Holding 10k LINK, if LINK performs similarly to BTC (and LINK has outperformed BTC for the last two years!), is like holding 600 BTC

It's not even the amount that's a big deal. It's the pure autism required to put your life savings into what any normal person would consider to be magic beans.

You get it. Even when bitcoin was $20k, my normie friends would only put in $20 - $50. If anyone put in more than 100 - 500 he was a madman. Now imagine putting in $50k into something that's worth under $5 a "share".

I agree, to an extent. A better comparison would be the top ETH holders, but I don't think you can view wallets with only ETH...? Because ETH wallets contain all kinds of shit tokens. The 3000th ETH wallet holds 3000 ETH in shitcoins and Ethereum, I just checked. That's about $700,000. It would be better to view the early ETH wallets from before the shitcoin craze.
However, LINK has outperformed bitcoin for a long while. There are many, many reasons why LINK could outperform bitcoin. Not going into them here but to assume that nothing can ever outperfom bitcoin just because it was first is a logical fallacy.

>> No.19497239

>>19497153

No...

There are 3300 wallets with >10k Link.

Think... if 1100 people have 60k Link each and they all have 3 wallets with 20k Link each.

That would be 1100 people. 3300 wallets. Because each person has more than one wallet. Do you get it?

Anyways, just buy Link and hold for 5 years lil buddy.

The problem is still the same with anything crypto related just now. It's all too new. everything right now in this space is like the intranet being formed in company spaces. Not even the web, not even AOL/Yahoo.

In ten years, we probably won't be calling it crypto and we probably won't see btc/link/eth being involved anywhere.

The current state of crypto will never be adopted. The future versions, maybe. But we're not even close to that yet. Guarantee something comes along and blows everything out of the water. Not to say I'm not holding any link, I am. But I'm not holding it thinking it's going to be some sort of middle ware powering future smart cities. It's just for the money that it 'seems' to be worth right now.

Remember, LINK is the last golden ticket out of poverty and you should never store 100% of your linkies in a single place. As unlikely as it is, someone could hack Binance or even Ethereum itself and steal everything you own.

Thankfully, since LINK is a blockchain-agnostic project, that means it can be stored on ANY chain using ANY wallet in existence! Sergey and Steve actually guarantee this interoperability in the white paper and it is a large part of what makes the project so appealing in the first place. Because of this, I strongly encourage all linkmarines to split their stack evenly across as many of the following as they can muster:

>Ethereum wallet (MyEtherWallet is always good)
>Several different exchanges (Binance, Coinbase, and Gemini are highly trusted) so if one goes down it's not game over
>Bitcoin wallet - Bitcoin is the O.G. blockchain after all and probably more hackproof than any other in existence.
>Monero wallet - storing your LINKs on the Monero chain has the added advantage of obscuring your trade history.
>Try looking for little-known crypto projects that might have a fork in their future. If you store LINK on their wallet when the fork occurs, you get free forked LINK!

There are just a few ideas, but there are innumerable safe places to spread your LINK stack out in. As you can see, it's almost irresponsible to keep all your LINK in a dusty old MEW wallet when there's so many perks to storing it elsewhere. Keeping your link spread out like this also helps against the temptation to sell your LINK prematurely during the climb to $1000. Personally, I have my LINK spread out over 8 different wallets and 5 different exchanges, and I've never felt comfier
