Although i believe decentralized trustless oracle will have a great importance in the future, i do fear for copy cats.

How easy would it be to release a similar product in, lets say, 6 months to a year after link has released theirs?

If both products work fine, people will use the cheaper one and the competition will inevitably sink LINKs price. Even if link remains king of decentralised oracle, it will undoubtibly go down in price with some competition.

>> No.4701676

ChainLink is 3-4 years ahead of the competition. Even with a devteam of a 1,000 pajeets, it just can;t be done.

Rory met Steve on Grindr. You see, it's an open secret that Steve is a sissy bottom. Rory was on vacation in CA with his wife and her mongrel negro child at disneyland when Rory matched up with Steve on the gay hookup app. They were both at Disneyland that day and like the degenerate homos they were (Rory being closeted), they needed to hook up in a public bathroom or behind a bush somewhere. Rory found an opportunity to seperate from his wife and negro while they were waiting to get on the pirates of the carribean ride, the wait was still 30 minutes which was enough time for a quick pozzing. Rory feigned illness from the lunch they had earlier, and headed to nearest bathroom where Steve was waiting.

After bottoming out inside Steve inside the main stall, Rory pulled out his iphone and looked at his blockfolio. Steve noticed this and asked him about his holdings. After Rory mentioned NXT, Steve told him his "thick daddy" helped create NXT. Rory was exstatic, and flew out to New York the next day to meet Steve's thick daddy, Sergey.

How to you get real world data into a smart contract while insuring that the real world data has not been tampered with?

A network of decentralized nodes that all serve the same data into the same smart contract, insuring that if one node is a bad actor it will be identified and ignored/punished. AKA LINK.

Smart Contracts are basically worthless to the "real world" without an oracle solution. We need "real world" adoption of Smart Contracts for crypto to grow.

Bank A wants to use blockchain or smartcontracts for more secure transactions.

Their only current option to do this is to go through a centralised oracle which is a single point of failure. This is too much risk for too little reward as, if you're a bank, why would you put your faith into a third party? No, you don't want to afford trusting a third party with your info.

Chainlink is a third party TRUSTLESS oracle and it achieves this by being decentralised. No more single point of failure- a bank can access everything smartcontracts has to offer in a 100% trustless process. No reliable or trusted third parties required.

A smart contract will rely on external data with preset conditions. In this instance, you would/could have sensors in your car that detect impact, damage etc. This will reliably be fed to the smart contract. Now, the information being fed into the smart contract is not the oracles problem. However, in the instance of banks using a network like this for smart contract based transactions or investments, the input can be pay x or cash out y when condition z is met.

If i'm mistaken, someone with more knowledge on this can correct me.

ERC20 is the token standard of virtual assets deployed on top of the ethereum blockchain. Ether is still needed to transfer these tokens. Ethereum is inextricably tied to all ERC20 tokens, and thus transacting with ERC20 tokens is fundamentally the same as transacting using Ether. There is no practical use for an ERC20 token that benefits the user, ERC20 tokens cannot have any features that do not already exist on ETH, and ERC20 tokens only act to lock consumers down to their platform.

So then you agree LINK only exists as a token instead of ETH so that the owners can manipulate it despite it having no actual user benefits.

Why would they pay nodes with a random token when they can pay in ETH? Because DRM.

doesn't matter. Especially with Corda. If this catches on with the 100's of banks that support/funded the project. Well guess what, Link's valuation halves from 0.50 to 0.25.

erc20 coins are shitcoins. No exceptions. You will always lose money if you buy them. LINK is an exceptional case, because it makes you lose more than anything else ever could. It's fucking cursed. That's probably bad karma, since many racist /pol/tards own LINK (10% of the coins are owned by 4Chan users). It's pretty much a containment coin, at this point. lulz

Yes, it does. Read the whitepaper, moron. Verifying if an oracle is lying is the whole fucking point, because the only way for an oracle to have its lie accepted is if EVERY oracle lies about the same thing in exactly the same way. So unless you can buyout everyone who runs a node providing a certain class of data, you're going to lose your stakes and take reputation hits with your lying oracles until you run out of money, without ever influencing a single transaction.

If the problem lies with the data provider behind the API, that is not a problem LINK is seeking to solve. LINK is trustless middleware, not trustless data. However, it does mitigate it very well, such as in the example of exchange API's that was mentioned earlier in the thread where all you have to do is call multiple exchanges to verify that information. This can be done on multiple layers: You as a node operator can do this individually to increase the reliability of your oracle, and the smart contract asking for the data can do this in their SLA to require data from multiple sources rather than merely multiple oracles querying the same source.

I actually was promoted today from 1100 to 2200.

Let us LINK MARINES coordinate together and make our estates and communities more utilitarian in nature.

Why are there no fruit trees on school properties? seems like a no brainer to grown at least trees that bear fruit in proximity to kids who need fresh nutrition.
Lets turn America into a society who eats a seasonal (abundance) diet.
