We're partnered with Cornell's IC3, to help launch the first Intel SGX secured link between smart contracts and external data. This more secure way of running an oracle is the future and we're glad to be moving it forward.
from the smartcontract.com page
have you watched the video from JP morgan? there they talk about a lot of things. one point is the problem to connect to the blockchain. one speaker is from IC3 that's the connection. the text above is from the smartcontract.com page. if you put the info from the video together with the connection to IC3 you see that they are all working together. making the next step in taking blockchain everywhere.
best way is watch this video and after that watch the video where sergey speaks at devcon.
these 2 videos explain everything. if you watch the jp morgan video first and the devcon after you will get a lot of insights
OP I like Chainlink but jpmorgan is using Quorum which is their analogue to Swift's hyperledger. The guy from ic3 was there to work with jpmorgan and Quorum to put Intel sgx into their blockchain tech.
What's different about chainlink is that regardless of the fact jpmorgan may eventually have some integrated hardware oracle, it's not plug and play like chainlink and not decentralized like chainlink. Many other companies will eventually get trusted hardware like intelSGX but they will still be centralised operations. Smartcontract and chainlink is still ahead in the game because not only do they have trusted hardware, they have a decentralized oracle solution.

That's what you get for "finding out" shit that has been known for months already.

I just put in a buy order at 1700 so of course we'll never reach that again
