Why chainlink matters?

Im down. We should do an international stink tour.

decentralized smart contracts need a way to access off-chain data to have any actual real-world use case. using a centralized oracle service would complete negates the purpose of secure blockchain-based smart contracts. Link will allow smart contracts to remain trustless while being able to gather off-chain data.

I cannot possibly emphasize how huge this is.

why won't blockchains itself create their own oracles?

Because the greatest lie Veeky Forums ever pulled is convincing normies Link is a Shitcoin.
Just go to /r linktrader and watch. The first ones to down vote link shill posts or serious discussion about Link are bizraelis themselves.

Because most of the big Blockchains are more worried about solving the scaling problem than anything else right now.

Having an oracle network as a 2nd layer blockchain agnostic protocol uses less on-chain resources while allowing a smart contract to retrieve data across multiple Blockchains as well. Since link can be used with any blockchain, it has a better change of wide adoption.

This actually makes a lot of sense... it's not they can't make the oracles themselves, it's about prioritizating their resources. Scaling before oracles. It will be cheaper to use CL for the next 5-10? years

THIS

Can confirm

Bunch of 4channers tried to force it as /ourcoin/, during the presale ico phase of chainlink there was a minimum requirement of 300eth to enter the presale. Bunch of anons pooled up together and shared presale links to fill them with their eth.

Coin continued to get shilled and pumped up and hyped for the sibios event that link was attended, whole event turned out to be a flop chainlink had a presentation in a room of like 18 people next to the public toilets, literally no news or partnership came from the event and the coin dumped back to below ico prices and created 1000's of bagholder anons.

Now during this bull run lots of anons and took advantage of this and shilling this coin to all the new money and newfags that joined in december and don't know this story.

The coin is HEAVILY manipulated and the supply is dried up from huge whales who accumulated below ICO price to create a artificially lower supply (a lot like REQ) and these people have so much room to dump on all of you faggots to still be in profit when the time comes.

In regards to actual project that chainlink aiming to achieve it's nothing more than a basic json parser for smart contracts, would take like a day to add to ethereum by itself.. literally making links whole concept pointless and definitely no need for a token. Would take a lot longer to get it working with bitcoin but the bitcoin core devs would be able to work out the solution a lot quicker than chainlink will, think that's something worth noting that literally nothing is completed and you're literally just buying a whitepaper, they have only 2 developers and they don't communicate at all with no proven background on either, in fact sergey was involved in a project before chainlink called NxT that he since been abandoned until it was took over by a new developer team

Man where do you save these copypastas. This is like the twelfth time I've seen this post word for word, just under the "even reddit hates this coin you should buy tron instead" copypasta.

I've only got 17 LINK.
I'll need one of you stinkies to pick me up in your private jet or helicopter or somethin

I'm not gonna beg you to buy LINK because I don't give a shit if you stay poor, but I'll answer these.

1 - Because the team purposefully does no marketing, and Veeky Forums was "smart" enough to find it under the radar

2 - Same reason as #1

3 - Right now LINK's price just follow the market. The market is crashing

4 - Does this really matter? But nevertheless..the team is well know..

5 - Because it's complicated. Most people are idiots. Their eyes glaze over the moment you say the world "decentralized oracle".

Who cares? If we all believe it's useful and solves the oracle problem, whatever that may be, then it's going to moon.

DO NOT UNDER ESTIMATE THE POWER OF POSITIVE THOUGHT! ESPECIALLY COLLECTIVE POSITIVE THOUGHT!!

THIS SHIT IS GOING TO REACH $1,000 EASILY! HOLD THAT THOUGHT AND VISUALIZE IT IN YOUR MIND EVERYDAY AS OFTEN AS POSSIBLE STARTING NOW AND IT WILL MANIFEST INTO REALITY. DO IT! I'M NOT JOKING!

VISUALIZE AS OFTEN AND AS DETAILED AS POSSIBLE!

If it's a pump and dump, why is it not pumping and dumping? It literally dumps when everything else does, then coasts between 65 and 70 cents you stupid fuck.

>literally a meme

There's two types of people who say it's a meme, those who got justed and deserve to be poor, and those who want you to believe it's a meme so the price stays low while smart money increases their stacks.

I seriously don't get how LINK isn't talked about more on /r/cryptocurrency.

Twitter/Facebook/etc I understand, but I didn't think the subreddit is full of retards.

Because biz, quite evilly, convinced them it was a meme. They also hated how the ICO worked. Some drama there.

Because bush did 911, there is only 2 gender and hitler did nothing wrong.

If antshares is so great why.....

How much LINK needed for Hawaii LINK meetup?

Damn.

So Veeky Forums is like anti-marketing.

They're really going to miss out or at the very least buy in at $5+

Based, thanks bb

I saw a comment on /r/cryptocurrency that really stuck with me.

A dude basically said "I own a ton of REQ, but no LINK because it's too memey for me".

I'm there reading it thinking this motherfucking dumb-ass truly has no idea what he's doing.
