I have never met him but often times those types negotiate with their cofounders that they specifically never have to do any of the public facing work.
While working with some subsegments of the general public is fun, interacting with everyone who is interested in something like chainlink is definitely not
>>26210923
If you take every crypto project in the top 200 and give them the benefit of the doubt that they fully deliver on their use case, then chainlink captures more value than the entirety of the rest of crypto combined.
Also good news that the team behind chainlink is the absolute definition of delivering on promises (though not as fast as /biz/ would like)

Why did they choose the name Chainlink instead of something cooler? Chainlink makes me think of a fence. If they named the coin "Skybound Crypto Slayer" or "Infinite Price Targets" or "The One Coin You MUST Own" or "One Million? No, One Billion" or "Targeted Strike Capability" or "Tomorrow Just Died" or "Primary Colors" or "Sevendust" or "Tricky Robotics" or "Serious Money" or "Don't Hate This Game" or "Two" or "Laser Birds" or "Ben Folds Five" or "Explosions" or "Immediate Success and Immediate Justice" or even something else it seems the project would be going a little better.

>>26211346
Anything is possible in crypto, that said we're in a post halvening period that has historically been good for BTC and the overall crypto MC. Given that CL continues to be developed and the overally crypto outlook is fairly bullish I'd put the likelihood of that under 50%.
>>26211447
Ironically CL being native to ETH is insanely bullish pricewise:
- ETH is slow, this pushes traffic to things like arbitrum
- If you want to bridge CL to another chain, you need to lock ETH based CL to do so
- If you want to lock that CL, you also will likely want to pay CL nodes to verify that those locked/minted amounts are equal, further increasing link demand
- All of the above is true for literally every chain that link wants to "run" on. Imagine 2-100mm link locked up on ETH for every Corda, Hyperledger, Stellar, polkadot, BSN, and every other execution chain that wants to play in the big leagues. It could even get to the point where an execution chain isn't considered legit without having a certain threshhold of link ported to it so that it has relevant contract inputs and outputs.

And there will only ever be a billion Chainlink.

To make a long story short I currently operate an API that feeds weather data with very high resolution (you can have micro climate information across a city) to clients. I'm scaling this project and I was looking into how this could be implemented on a chain.
How does link allow my data feed to be used for contracts? Wouldn't it need to check my data against other providers to validate I'm not feeding bullshit?

What I think people are forgetting is the mania of a bullrun. Most of us have been here since below a dollar. I won't speak for other anons but it's caused me to curb my expectations tremendously. Like summer 2019 when a lot of people thought for sure it would bust through $5 and 1k eoy was reality, and then crabbing for 8 months. This time it's unironically different. My bet is $200 by June and my genius TA says it could go higher or lower than that by eoy. If eth could hit 1300 last run I don't see why Link would be any different but Eth also didn't experience a lot of the price suppression Link's endured

it's not a payment mechanism or a store of value, it's a network middleware. think a global computation infrastructure that is incentivised. if you run nodes you could be paid in LINK but odds are you will be able to choose any currency you want to be paid out in and the network will swap LINK for that currency. the value of the network is enormous but it won't be like you're buying shit on amazon with LINK, its all backend.

I think we talked about it in another one of these threads but I would guess that the network that controls the outputs ends up controlling the entire SC flow. Put another way, if your enterprise software interfaces with CL it will likely default to link inputs, arbitrum execution and link outputs unless you specifically select otherwise. For things like dex backends I'd guess the creators will work hard on minimizing execution costs, but for normal users CL basically has the whole offering.

>>26213354
Plenty
I sell a small amount every month (as i do with every asset in my portfolio that ends up being a disproportionate portion of its value)
For staking: the moment it goes live the price of the asset will quickly adjust to APYs of just staking income being <5%. If you got to hold link and get reasonable passive income it would be too good a deal, especially with the network expected to grow. I would expect several years of significantly appreciating link price with low default staking APYs in the 0.5-3% range until the network becomes fully mature.

It only needs to check against other providers if there are other providers offering the same granularity of data
Alternatively it could accept a city temp with +/- x% variation within city.

I think you're right on point.
No reason to onboard providers of high granularity rapid data unless there is an immediate plan to drop the cost of the price feeds by orders of magnitude.
Best guess is many of these will launch as OCR only and maybe as beta Tsigs feeds. If that goes well for a long period of time the pure ETH based feeds (except maybe Eth/link and Link/USD) may go away.

Bitcoin is permissionless inflation resistant value transfer with 100% uptime 24/7 and a number of drawbacks (transparent ledger etc). It's reasonably mature with respect to price
Chainlink is a replacement for third party trust services in value transfer. Think the total value of contracts lawyers, non criminal courts, accountants, trade finance, payment processors etc.
Chainlink makes all of these services cheaper and higher fidelity and captures a portion of their current value while opening up a large number of currently impossible or non-feasible use cases.

I'm of the opinion that when you're investing with peanuts diversification doesn't make sense. Invest with conviction. Maybe Cardano or Stellar or even Link doubles. Cardano and Stellar you've got $40 and $12 respectively. Read these threads and maybe you drink the koolaid and believe Link will achieve what we all think it does. Would you rather have doubled your $20 in a few months or be holding a piece of the 4IR in 3 years?

Thanks for the answer and for a great thread. The currently impossible and all the other upcoming innovative usecases are pretty exciting to envision. That's partly why I'm thinking about doing something to support or build the ecosystem. What skills would you recommend learning for someone who might be interested in working for Chainlink in the future? I'm a programmer so it would be ideal to hear about some very niche skill. I'm thinking about learning some functional languages in addition to Solidity. Do you have something that you could point me to?

[Anonymous No.26219360]

>>26218508
LINK is a utility token meant to pay node operators. There will never be more than 1B. Think about all the data in the world, and all the data to come. If chainlink truly succeeds as the defacto Oracle network virtually every dApp, blockchain will utilize its oracles to cut costs and basically devour entire markets. Think about the staking, and the fact that inorder to receive true & correct data from a network you'll need to pay the node x amount of link. Although 1B tokens is a lot, when compared to how much data & $ the network will consume it really isn't much. Chainlinks success proves that Blockchain & Smart contracts will be the pinnacle of human/entity agreements. Basically, once staking (risking LINK as a collateral for y amount of dollars by providing accurate data from your node) is live we can expect the price of LINK to skyrocket, and will only continue to skyrocket as more and more link is removed from circulation. You know that singularity thing people have been talking about for some time? That giant green dildo? It will be real, if and only if the network delivers on its promises. But based on historical data from 2017 - 2021 (present) chainlink has followed through on everything. We've witnessed a US election recorded on a blockchain fed by chainlink oracles, DeFi is finally starting to pick up and provide APY that is greater than tradfi. The chainlink team has been hiring like crazy, late 2020 they founded chainlink labs (led by Ari Juels), recently just hired a CEO of some exchange that I can't remember. In order to follow through on the promises made, they need to hiring quickly and hire the best talent they can, which is funded by that Token reserve, which in long term is a good thing because, those tokens won't be held by the team but by node operators and other hodlers. Long story short, invest at your own risk. lastly, I've been watching sine dec '17 and I haven't been let down yet.

[Anonymous No.26219482]

>>26219360
you are absolutely trying to overtalk and bullshit me.
You literally start by saying "there will never be more than 1B LINKs", that's not what I'm asking nor saying. Chainlink is a data service: you pay x$$ and you get your oraclized data, that's all.
> once staking (risking LINK as a collateral for y amount of dollars by providing accurate data from your node) is live we can expect the price of LINK to skyrocket

What would you advice to a young poorfag anon who is finishing college and is holding 2100 LINK? I can see it go to 300-500$ in this bull market but I'm not sure if I as a linklet should sell or not? On one hand it would give me a good kickstart to life even with my small stack in that price range, on the other hand if link is going above 1000 or even more long term, I could lose opportunity of a great wealth. I could afford to hold (and maybe later even stake) and rent and pay that from my job for example. Maybe sell a portion and keep the rest? Maybe sell a portion and buy back lower in the bear market to increase the stack? What would your advice to a linklet be senpai? Thanks!

Are you retarded? Do you have low IQ? Or are you just counterattacking our arguments so we spoonfeed you and validate your intentions of holding Link?

BTC going to 200k would push the market to 7 trillion. Even if Link has 5% dominance (which is very conservative for how important it is); it would put it at $750. Even if bitcoin doesnt reach 200k, lets say 100k ; it would still be more than $300. And even if BTC doesn’t pump, chainlink had always had its own independent pump.

Also, forget about all that crap that people compare market value against companies; this is a different VOLUME. If institutions decided to utilize chainlink and obtain Links.. they would buy large amounts and pump the price. Today’s volume cant handle institutional money. Look at the bids and tell me if an institution can just go and buy a large stack. OTC? Sure but there wont be enough if the demand is high and holders are already staking.

This all seems pretty reasonable with the exception that it sort of mis states how Sergey has described staking as working:

- Staking additional amounts in response to specific data feed and payment output needs

IMO they try to implement more & more utility by implementing useless staking that has no purpose in the system, it's no ETH, it's no GRT, it's no SNX. The token is useless, a decentralized oracle is a service where you pay x$ or xDAI/USDC for having data being oraclized to you and that's it. Nobody ever refuted that

You're not even refuting anything I said, you can't explain why there is a token, why the team holds 35%, why it has to be like that in the ecosystem, why should chainlink take 100% of the market of "data oracling", why the whitepaper explains nothing about different type of staking, centralized node registration, why nothing was done in 2 years even though they have basically unlimited funds, why the fuck? It's a fucking network of trusted entities aggregating any kind of public data and making you pay for that. That's it, you can't explain why I need link for that shit, why should its market cap get into the hundreds of billions or trillions, why there needs to be staking of different types, etc.

Im in que for a LINKPOOL node.
100k minimum. I probably won’t see that node live till 2022. I want to gain some kind of APY in the mean time but to scared to use Celsius or Nexo.
I seriously doubt I’d be able to successfully join 5 different staking nodes
with 45k LINK in each. And with my paranoia towards Celsius and nexo I don’t think I’d trust another company.
Just LINKPOOL. I won’t pay 75 eth for 1LP. I just can’t justify it. Am I crazy?

If you force high stakes on all nodes, use VRFs to do random selection + implement a reputation system (that was in the whitepaper,
and still don't exist btw) you'll end up with a very trustable network. That's basically why there are other projects like BAND/API3/ZAP,etc.

how can there be any speculation on link is beyond me (and I've bought this crap at 0.5€..). A service is a service, you pay, you receive, end of discussion.

I completely with that. My point is that Chainlink, is not part of this category and is literally a fucking ponzi scam, so far it's working so well.

GRT, for example, is a stock/token that has utility because it's justified. In Chainlink's case, it's not, it's really not. It's not a utility token, it's a payment token that is marketed as a stock.

having the founders own that much destroy the argument of "tokenomics security". There is also no "economical abstraction" needed here, one could design a stablecoin and use it here.

>Either I'm not smart enough to understand graph or it's a project trying very hard to make a splashy argument for investors by charging nothing for its services and onboarding use cases that will never pay them.
It's almost exactly the same setup as the Chainlink tokenomics, but with (I think) some improvments.
Why would investors be excited by free services? Why wouldn't their use case get paid? Like Chainlink, they provide a service that makes the writing of smart contracts magnitudes more cost effective. Chainlink frees you from creating the costly infrastructure for putting trustworthy data on the blockchain. Graph frees you from creating costly infrastructure for querying the data on the blockchain. Both are needed by most smart contracts. Both a radically cheaper alternative.
Both rely on a distributed network of permissionless nodes who can be trusted due to staking collateral. In fact, if we call the service they provide X, where X can be "oracles for putting trustworthy data onchain" or "indexers for querying onchain data", then I bet if you describe the network and tokenomics substituting the actual service in your description for "X", it wouldn't be possible to know if you're talking about Chainlink or the Graph.
It's exactly the same idea:
- Provide a service needed by smart contracts
- Have smart contracts pay service providers with a utility token
- let service providers be a permissionless network of node operators that instead of obtaining permission prove their reliability with staked collateral using the utility token.
- let token holders pool their tokens with the service providers' staked collateral for a share of their revenue.
Did I just describe Chainlink or the Graph?
Disclaimer, I have about 50/50 of both.

>I don't think this is even remotely close to right
Implementations obviously differ, but from a functional perspective it's pretty straightforward if I have understood it at all. Service providers lock up their stake in a way that lets the network remove from their stake if they fail their SLA. The Graph also has some dispute resolution mechanisms etc, I expect that to be different, but the important part is that in Tier 1 you simply stake against your SLA...right?

Should I put some money on LINK? Missed the last 10 trains but it seems US is regulating stable coins for banks and "self driving" banks which will most probably make use of LINK
What are LINK competitors, why are they inferior if any and is it safe to assume LINK will do its job good enough that it'll stay around for at least 5 years, maybe 10?

>This is an excellent example of someone being an idiot for idiots sake
>He obviously knows you have to pay amazon to use AWS or sell on Amazon.com, but he has no real argument except to fake ignorance
No, he is making the following argument: If Amazon required that people pay for things using AMZN stock, that would create additional demand on the stock and it would go up. The same applies to Chainlink.
I think he is trying to imply that this is a bad thing, however, or has some scammy component. I think it is not. Furthermore, Amazon could create a utility token, perhaps with rebates for tying your cash to them (maybe you can't cash out, only use it to pay on Amazon.com) and that could be good for Amazon, the consumer, the stock price and the world. Don't see why creating value would be scammy.

Nvm found it:
To send someone to Coventry is an English idiom meaning to deliberately ostracise someone. Typically, this is done by not talking to them, avoiding their company, and acting as if they no longer exist. Victims are treated as though they are completely invisible and inaudible.

My first search only yielded hits about some town.
