I want to share with you a very interesting article on stablecoins and I encourage you to read it on it's entirety:

>https://multicoin.capital/2018/01/17/an-overview-of-stablecoins/

In our ideal world, we would have some sort of decentralized tether-like coin that function and operated through smart contracts.

Enter the stablecoin movement in crypto.

>What is a stablecoin?

It boils down to a cryptocurrency that attempts to retain a constant value (tether being the best example) for either wealth storage during volatile times or in order to be traded against more investments such as crypto,stocks, and other financial vehicles.

>How can a decentralized stablecoin ever be created?

It boils down to having the stablecoin be either collateralized by a crypto (such as Eth, BTC, Bitshares), or likewise, creating algorithmic-powered DAO that can increase or reduce the supply of said coin (using bonds and interest rates, similar to the fed) by having the right data.

>How does this relate to Chainlink?

While I encourage you to read the article here is the relevant bits from the article:

>All stablecoins must address the oracle problem.
>If stablecoins are pegged to the value of some external asset like the US dollar, the system needs some way to get data about the exchange rate between the stablecoin and the asset that it is pegged to.
>Using a trusted data source (aka a trusted oracle) recentralizes the power to the data provider (meaning a decentralized oracle is the only secure way of achieving a decentralized stablecoin)
>Having the users that stake the coin provide data (no efficient way of doing this in an efficient way for the stakers, at least not automatically and accurate at the same time.)

That's right. Chainlink is in the market to compete with Tether and fiat currencies. Billion and Trillion dollar competitors.

Q1 is almost up guys, and Chainlink's mainnet is going to go live in 1 or two months. Don't miss this for the love of god.

That's right. Chainlink will power the stablecoins of a plethora of different cryptos and it's very likely to one day powered whatever leading stablecoin takes the place of tether.

Then there is also the fact that once a true stablecoin is achieved. Pegging it to real-world assets (oil, gold, stocks, index funds) will become a possibility.

Guess which data source is the most secure and trust-less to feed oil and gold crypto smart contracts the right information on gold and oil prices?

Chainlink. Motherfucking chainlink

>b-but muh fud! S-stinky linky!

Ignore the fud.

Do you realize that Chainlink is to crypto what rocket fuel is to a rocket? secure, trustless Information. To blockchain and dapps, this is literal gold.

Everyone knows it, but everyone is accumulating for the day LINK goes parabolic.

Only 8k LINK here.

I know I won't "make it" how others will make it but, imagine that you only invest 1k in ETH in the early days. While you wouldn't make as much from Eth as someone that dropped 10k into it, you would still be enjoying a nice juicy profit from it all.


Don't worry. 3k is plenty. With 3k LINK, you will be able to get paid as a node operator for providing data. The value of your 3k LINK will pay one hundred fold.

At least you own some.

Not only stablecoins. LINK is the shovel in the middle of multiple goldrushes:
https://www.reddit.com/r/LINKTrader/comments/7pqo5t/anyone_know_if_link_is_involved_in_the_europes/dsjn7vh/
>As you can tell, I am bullish about ChainLink. Often in crypto, the old saying about how the guy selling shovels in a gold rush is the one to get rich. Well, I believe PSD2 is another gold rush and ChainLink is the first in the door selling the shovels, the diggers, and the whole wash plant.

Here's the thing, not only is ChainLink the shovels etc., there are MULTIPLE gold-rushes happening at the same time here. PSD2, legacy systems rushing to use smart-contract tech, stablecoins, reliable external data inputs; there are more but you get the idea.
And link is the shovel for all of them, the middleware. And it doesn't even need to capitalize on all of these gold-rushes. If it establishes itself in one of these markets, the network will grow to take over adjacent markets.
LINK is going to be the biggest shocked in the crypto-space to date.

I say this unironically. Memes influence our reality and create these kinds of self fulfilling prophecies. Look at recent events. Trump wins, eagles win super bowl this year. Always bet on the memes because what people expect to happen will happen if you have enough people and I think Link has crossed that threshold.

It's simple supply and demand. The more people that care about the project, the more demand there is. Most holders aren't willing to sell anytime soon, so the price goes up. When nodes are hording LINK to increase their reputation (to earn more LINK) the supply will be even lower which will pump the price more.
