Why wouldn't they be secure? Using chainlink you still need to trust the original data source you just have to place less trust in the oracle. But if the data provider have their own data feed there is not even a need for a middleman

You mean all the data providers have to do is provide their data in a form that's understood by the contract, set up a system to provide collateral, collaborate to create a decentralized network and carry the legal responsibility of providing accurate info? Basically forming entire new branches within their companies to accomplish these things?

The facilitator or deal broker always comes out ahead as they become the platform for everything else to work on. Anything using smart contracts will have to use link soon in the future or else theyll have no credibility. Imagine a new brand trying to start nowaday without Amazon, Walmart, FB, etc. no credibility.

link is the platform of ccrypto and will thus be number 1. i dont even have any link and pray it dips 50% like it has in the past.

Why would it need to be decentralized? They're literally the data provider, of course their data is correct. And if it isn't correct the problem persists with Chainlink nodes, doesn't matter if there's a thousand chainlink nodes if they all get their data from the same provider. And if you want to aggregate different data providers it's just a few lines of code in solidity.

If you're just going to go back to "lol just trust me bro" then market sell all your crypto, put your money in a traditional centralized bank and use contracts made by lawyers. The whole fucking point of all this is to replace slow, expensive, unreliable and manipulative humans with just a little bit of technology. This is true legal and banking automation.

that problem isn’t link’s to solve

the problem link solves is data transmission from source, not data accuracy from source. it’s not magic. All it does is prevent one contracting party from fucking the other because of an inherent power/information discrepancy. the network ensures that instructions are carried out without manipulation at any point during the process. It still falls to contracting parties to make sure they know what they’re signing before they sign

You are right. Competitors will come that can create a system where the data providers can directly collateralize their inputs, removing the middleman entirely. But chainlink will continue to pump before that happens, because few understand the statistical difficulty of aggregation and fraud detection in such a system because it’s a novel problem. You have to be silly to think there will be only one dominant oracle provider in the blockchain ecosystem.
