LINK was the only external crypto to be showcased by SWIFT at SIBOS, after a year of development for SWIFT.

And right before the demo, we got news that a list of massive entities were directly involved in the demo, including Sony, AXA, BNP Paribas, ...

The current price development is 100% detached from reality, thanks to obvious manipulation on Binance.

Sure, at certain points in time, like when the news came hours before the demo that companies like AXA, Sony, BNP Paribas, ... were involved in the demo.

At quieter times, there were constantly ~100k sell walls appearing, moving, and disappearing. Keeping the price down.

Keep in mind that the current price has nothing to do with reality as long as LINK is only on Binance.

If LINK had been on more than one major exchange, it would have mooned and stay mooned after this news came out: https://www.coindesk.com/swift-startup-winner-demos-smart-contract-trade-5-financial-firms/?utm_content=buffer4ffb0&utm_medium=social&utm_source=twitter.com&utm_campaign=buffer

SIBOS was even more amazing for LINK than we anticipated, yet the price is going down. Completely unnatural.

In the very short term, only another exchange will rectify the situation. Because no matter how good the news gets, the price of LINK is completely controlled by Binance bots.

>> No.3968536

>>3968497

At this moment, that's completely irrelevant.

Yeah sure IF Link was on few big exchanges, it would probably spike up after or even during Sibos.

IF - that's the crucial word.

Sibos is old news, Link is still in gook-exchange prison, so even if some miracle happens (Polo, Trex) in following weeks - it won't "moon".

Gooks dun goofed us.

Ok, I just wanna say. Vb has fudded this. Oracles are great but worth 30 mill or whatever. Question mark. Im going to call him out right now for being a dumb fuck. His entire network of smart contracts isnt worth shit without provable, reliable, extermal data. If that exists, without counterparty risk etc, say the notional of a swap is captured on the block chain and released when the smart contract says so. The prime brokers of derivatives will be btfo so hard, nobody will know what hit them. Cfds will be available the fucking exchanges will dry up. I dunno.

The price is going down because it will be a nobody coin for at least another year.

Banks haven't even adopted smart contracts yet, why would they be rushing for a middleware oracle for their trusted data feeds?

This is a long, long term prospect in current environment and will take years before adoption occurs, and months before banks even need to consider utilizing the middleware.

No, the price isn't being manipulated on Binance. It's opportunity costs, why would people hold LINK for 18 months with no price movement, when they could dip their toes into any shit altcoin for 20% monthly gains.

You guys are fucking deluded, Yes, decentralized and trusted oracles will be needed, but NOT NOW. Even aSpergey says this multiple times in his interviews.

Saw someone post "LINK has no incentive for institutions to buy up tokens. The market cap of LINK will only reflect the volume of data queries. The reason ETH and OMG surged is because PROOF OF STAKE. Large players wanted cheap tokens for staking down the road. LINK is not the next ETH or even OMG, there is simply no reason for institutions to horde LINK. Now REQ, on the other hand, will be using Plasma staking, already has backing from YC and ING, and can be seen as the American OMG. With this support they will get recognition and whales will start stacking REQ for future staking, driving the price up. LINK has a proper use case, but will never moon as hard as PoS coins. Reality is hard to swallow, but LINK is a failed mission. REQ is /ourcoin/ now. Get it before it hits exchanges or get pink wojack'd".

Harvard technology experts estimate that we are 'decades' away before smart contracts will be commonplace.

I've been in crypto for a while now, and smart contracts have been spoken about since 2014 with many people expecting adoption by 2016, but look where we are now.

FinTech moves slowly. It has to. There are consequences to replacing current infrastructure with poorly designed smart contracts. This is a long road, we won't be seeing applicable smart contracts for at least 24 months.

Half the people at SIBOS don't know what a smart contract is lmao. Stop being so defensive and start looking at the bigger picture and making better use of your capital - don't let it be tied up in LINK for 6 months without any return. You're missing out on the greatest bull market in history, and you're a fool if you don't walk away from this wealthy.

This is the attitude that will lose you money.

Be updated with the news and you can get in at the start of the trend reversal. Why baghold something on the chance that it may moon while you're asleep.

If you are asleep and you miss it, you've saved yourself -50% of your investment because you didn't baghold a downtrending coin. If you're awake when it moons, you've made yourself +200%.

Even if it moons now for +200%, you're still at a loss because you held for 3 weeks down to 0.2 without any indication of positive news.

You haven't read the article if you think that's bad news for LINK.

The article mainly talks about Hyperledger Fabric, the actual blockchain which is only two months old.

The rest speaks glowingly about blockchain tech, and it even says SWIFT might simply use another blockchain instead of Fabric.

Whichever blockchain they use, Chainlink remains the key to entering external data into it.

And then there's these little gems:
>Swift has concluded that it’s “crucial” that integration with legacy back-office applications and co-existence with existing processes are taken into account.
and
>“Swift needs to bring a solution which minimises investment costs and allows co-existence with existing infrastructure and solutions.”

This screams Chainlink (which is low threshold, plug&play).
