Interesting, thanks.
He had his disagreements with CL but he also seems bitter about being let go early.
The biz model question is the single most important question wrt competitors and no one in their tg had asked about that.

>> No.25002964

>>25002610
I don't think this is referring to threshold signatures, it's referring to each oracle doing aggregation separately (as well as maintaining and updating their own data points) and then that aggregation being verified on-chain.

E.g. median is computationally expensive because you have to sort all data points -- O(n log n) for CSfags.

To save costs, you can get each oracle to sort the data points off-chain and then report them on-chain. The on-chain aggregator then only needs to check if the data is sorted -- O(n).

None of this requires threshold signatures.

>>25002850
True. But the thing is, Chainlink subsidizes users of their data feeds by giving them tokens. This is clearly unsustainable (like what Dimi said). At some point, people are going to need to start paying. Then it's a matter of whoever has the cheapest data feed (w.r.t data quality etc). The API3 team make good arguments in their whitepaper re: why their data feeds will be cheaper. But I guess only time will tell.

>>25003149
as demand for offchain data onchain grows, there will be more parties willing to pay, so each datafeed becomes a community resource. You'll have 300 parties all paying for X data, meaning the price for each party is 1/300th of the price of producing that data. the more use the cheaper it gets porportionally

He left a core position in a leading blockchain startup for a mid level position at IG. He was the second biggest code contributor after Steve.
Either got bored or had issues with management.
If you had looked into his resume then, it was also obvious he was doing a lot of small projects just to ass on his resume; I think his game plan was always work for a niche startups for a couple years so it looks good on a resume, just to get hired by a big tech company. A common strategy for young devs, since most startups fail anyway.
For reference the price was crabbing at two dollars range when he left and maybe he thought this was an unsustainable top.
He made a bad call and now likely wants to invest in newer projects.
He didn't even understand the potential of his own work, many such cases.

Yes, he was not referring to threshhold signatures but my question was, why use dedicated "beacon" nodes to aggregate and publish results when you can have your favorite number of nodes reach consensus off chain and publish that via a single multisig tx, i.e. the competition's tsigs scheme? what is gained by burak'a solution?

>> No.25003611

>>25003497
I'm pretty sure he addresses that: everything is more transparent with the beacons, because individual points are on-chain, so you know what the data was pre-aggregation. This also doesn't involve the complex/nuanced decision of selecting your favourite nodes, or however you put it.

this was the beauty of chainlink's ico and distribution. the 65% is there to incubate the network and solve the chicken and egg problen. remember that sergey is ruthless as fuck
in terms of dimtri, yeah he got pushed out for the doing side projects and not showing sufficent commitment.
