You have a winning lottery ticket, worth millions of dollars. It has a line at the bottom saying "Not redeemable until:" but the date has faded away.
You know it will be redeemable some time in the next 5 years.

Would you be happy about your good fortune? Or would you spend your time absolutely miserable, checking if it's redeemable every 15 minutes, and having a massive tantrum every time the answer came back "not yet"?

But cherrypicking a handful of projects on a carefully chosen date wouldn't prove anything, which is why I asked.
I could just as easily cherrypick substratum, ambrosias and jibrel that went to zero. it wouldn't prove anything.

[Anonymous No.58029257]

>>58029078
then just use cycle performance.
you accept there are cycles, or no?

provided you do,
link's cycle low was around $6.50/7
bitcoin's cycle low was around $18/20.

if you want to be pedantic you might say 4 or 5.71 for link and 15,230 for btc, but let's just say more or less 6.50/7 for link and 18/20k for btc.

since then - IN THIS CYCLE - link hasn't even tripled.
btc has quadrupled.
can look at avax and say the same, can look at xyz and say the same, can look at abc and say the same.
it isn't really cherrypicking carefully chosen dates,
we are using the contextual reference of a cycle, there's leeway here, there's tolerance here, there's ample space here,
and doing that, if you aren't being disingenuous then you know link has underperformed and i'm saying that as somebody who got in a long time ago for way less than it is now and is sitting pretty.
link has still underperformed this cycle and the fud we heard during the bearmarket about new sat ath's never happening appear to have been true.

Link crashed much harder tho, but you already know that. 40% of ath whereas btc made new ath

They say when analyzing your current investment, you should look at as if hypothetically, if you had that amount of cash on hand, would you buy your current holdings. So in effect, every day from ‘20 until now, you have bought the top, and as a result, have sufferred tremendously

Wow. We're at the end-stage for fud these days. We literally have Swift, DTCC, Euroclear, SDX and a whole tranche of other huge entities who have confirmed what we always knew and the fudders can only whimper "but.. price" and "no it won't happen it just won't no no no".
For a long time i used to enjoy 'fighting the fud' but it's too weak now. I'm resigning from it before the end as it's oddly like losing an old friend to alzheimers. I'd rather not have to watch their indignity.

you're a weirdo, you're only trying to word 'if you bought every bottom and sold every top perfectly you'd be richer' differently, I know. But I don't live in a chinese urban time travel novel so I can't do that.

Now let’s complete the story. Everyone gets to draw a lottery ticket from a hat.

You draw a ticket with no known redemption date. In fact, it may never be redeemable for all you really know, and it doesn’t tell you the amount it’s redeemable for.

Literally everyone else around you draws a ticket with a multiple of 5-2000x on it with a guaranteed redemption date of within the next couple of months.

As the months go by and everyone is redeeming their tickets, you still have no news at all about if your ticket will be redeemable at any point or for what. You are then offered a chance to trade your ticket for any other ticket in the hat, as a new round of people choose new tickets as well. But you choose not to. As this new crowd redeems their winnings over and over you still sit idly by, waiting for some news, but there is no hint of it. All of the lottery winners have started making fun of you nonstop. They call you “the cuckold of the lotto hat.”

You now get another chance to trade your ticket for another one in the hat, as a new crowd gathers around. Do you swap? Are you happy with your ticket, OP?

I started moving my LINK which I have held 50,000 of since 2017 into random shitcoins and other top 10s like SOL AVAX BTC just a couple of months ago and within that time I have 3x’d from where I would be if I just held LINK. I’ve only sold of like 20k because I was hoping to get another LINK pump at some point to sell the rest so was releasing slowly but the move would have clearly been to just dump everything and move the fuck on in life. Of course I do have 15k staked. You can call it fud but the reality is this is what is actually happening. It’s a dart board out there where everything is going parabolic basically except LINK. As long as you don’t enter actual rugs like go SOL casino you can’t fucking lose. I bought bags of LINK “competitors” like PYTH and AXL thinking I was going to lose all my money and I was being a bitter idiot and they both have massively outperformed LINK. I bought SOL thinking with the high mcap it had I was probably buying a snail token which would get nuked on any BTC dump and it has more than doubled and is completely resilient to BTC dropping, sometimes it even continues to go up while LINK shits itself 10% on a 1% BTC move.

If it was released today, they wouldn't. The launch of LINK during the ICO boom when the public had maximum access to early stage investing is one of those miracles that you can attribute to extreme good luck, coincidence, or divine intervention, depending on how schizo you are.
Personally I think 5th dimensional angels intervened so we would make it, and I'm not joking.

we know you're not joking.
that's why i think most fellow linkies are deluded.
and i believe in Angels.

but the idea they let us buy it then, and wouldn't let us buy it now, and , i guess, that this price performance is to make us sell, is off kilter anon.
We obviously aren't ever selling even if they drag it all the way back down to $1 i will just ride out on the horse i came in on, but i'm not selling, but there's no agenda to make me sell.
If there was they wouldn't be marketing on twitter everyday, or a conference every 3 weeks,and pay advocates to keep it's imagine in line.
They have 1 million followers on twitter anon. Even accounting for those with 2 or 3 accounts, and dormant accounts, that's a lot of people interested in link. You might be right to think a lot of those have a financial interest. That's a lot of people.
We aren't as unique as you think.
There's no agenda to push you out.
Just an agenda to distribute the tokens at a particular price and yes, they can move the price up and down as they like.
