ITT we talk about link prices in an intelligent manner, it's about chainlink valuation after mainnet

riddle me this:
>when mainnet launches and sergey hands out his tokens, 700 mio will be in circulation.
>swift reports <35mio daily financial messages in total, only a fraction of which will go through the cl network
>oraclize charges 1ct per node request
>if 700 mio tokens compete to get paid for even 35mio requests that’s 0.05ct per day per token in revenue (being super generous here already, if 350k of the requests use the cl network I’m surprised)
>that’s 18ct per year
>assuming 10% roi an honest valuation would be at $1.8
>$10 per link would require 200mio daily requests
>of course throughout the next years the number of APIs and requests will increase and it’s a lot more companies than just swift
>but even if it quintuples every year we’ll realistically need >4 years to reach 200mio requests (350k*5^x) which would justify $10 link
where did i go wrong?
if I didn’t, it's gonna be pic related for a long ass time

riddle me this:
when mainnet launches and sergey hands out his tokens, 700 mio will be in circulation. linkpool will do 100k token nodes but so many aren't needed for a node.
we will see 700 nodes if they have 10k tokens on average.
looking at oraclize's prices (1ct per request) and claims of having over 2000 requests per node (which is likely exaggerated already) for an average 10k node we will get:
>$7000 in staking rewards a year
>a price of 7$ per link at a roi of 10%
each node doing 2k requests per day nets us 1.4mio requests per day. a lot.
even getting to this many will be tough within the next 2 years or so.
It's all guesstimation but what it comes down to is this:
$7 per link would be an optimistic value until we surpass the 1.4mio requests which requires adoption levels reached no sooner than 2020

agreed, we can only speculate!
however, with 7kk tokens in circulation we can see 700 nodes if they all have 10k in them.
each of them doing 2k requests per day nets us 1.4kk requests per day.
even getting to this many will be tough within the next 2 years or so.
It's all guesstimation but what it comes down to is this:
$7.5 per link would be a realistic value until we surpass the 1.4kk requests which requires adoption levels reached no sooner than 2020.
it's gonna be pic related kiddo

i'd love to see this one in higher res, anyone?

bags heavy yet, idiot linkies?
I'll enjoy my ETH pump and buy lambos
