Rlc - all over here at .80$ went to 12$

the more time goes on, the more in awe I am of just how much of a fucking fluke it was. /biz/ had to have a very specific composition of people to get around LINK like that. LINK did a 6x in the 2017 bullrun., Other projects were doing 6x in a day. It was a chronic underperformer when everything else was blowing up.
But it hit at a time when /biz/ was smart and niche, and the first actual arguments I read about LINK told me I was in way over my fucking head. What was a sybil attack? But the feeling then was so strong that it was something different.
It was the first ever peer reviewed whitepaper. That says a lot on its own about how seriously Chainlink took itself.
And complete radio silence at a time when VeChain was doing daily "community updates", new roadmaps, and naming their community nodes shit like MARVEL THOR STARBUCKS XXL, was also really weird from a team that had just dropped the most serious attempt at taking on the oracle problem directly that anyone had ever seen.
The number of factors that had to line up for /biz/ to get onto LINK when it did is ridiculous. Some would call it divine providence, some would call it a manipulated trap, some would call it a lifeline thrown out to the autist-verse, but whatever your explanation is, it fucking happened, and it was crazy.

Yes, I know the high time preference cohort of the link marines are in agonising pain. I see it every time I come back here.

Unironically LINK. I remember people posting links to smartcontract.com and you were supposed to send ETH there and get link in the pre-sale. It was literally weeks of nerve wracking shit not knowing whether you got exit scammed. Especially because the presale didn't even use smart contracts. You would just send ETH to an address and worse is that it was an address of a pool of SOMEONE. So you had no guarantee that someone couldn't rug you, you just hoped all unique address would get LINK in relative amounts to what they sent.

It was days (weeks?) of begging Rory (who remembers him?) on telegram to give any clearance on what will happen until he actually made a spreadsheet of all ethereum addresses and how much LINK they would get. I think that was truly the biggest alpha to ever land on /biz/. Newfags won't even remember it but that was were the whole chainlink memery started. "We" as a group got into the presale even though it was complete nonsense. When they did their actual sale/ICO it was sold out in minutes and almost nobody got in but I think in terms of "vocal internet users", /biz/ really had most of the circulating LINK supply and not reddit, twitter or whatever place

>You would just send ETH to an address and worse is that it was an address of a pool of SOMEONE.
Most nerve racking thing was the uncertainty of how they'd handle presale deposits over the limits. iirc in the end they just gave everyone link anyway and reduced the size of the subsequent rounds..

Yeah that too. It was just a complete clusterfuck. The worst part was the "why don't they use a smart contract for their presale" FUD which really got to me. And it made sense too because LINK was literally nothing at that point, just an idea. Sergey and Rory probably hand counted all deposits and distributed everything manually

Link was literally two russian scammers with a laptop when biz was already worshipping it as the progenitor of the fourth industrial revolution. You have to hand it to them, they were correct.

too much to count honestly. pretty much everything has been shilled on here in its early days, people are autistic about finding new shit. i dont know if /biz/ was around pre-eth, i know /g/ and /b/ were talking about bitcoin quite a bit in its early days. but i do know /biz/ was early as fuck to ethereum, which i think is pretty cool. and then early to pretty much every shitcoin thereafter. people on /biz/ also talk about things in other markets earlier than average too, it's just focused on crypto a lot because it's the easiest way for broke neets to make easy money.

I wouldn’t buy it right now or ever again, but easily the best shill in /biz/ history was shib. Unless you can name something else that did 150,000x after being posted here
