/biz/ - Business & Finance

Bitcoin was back in 2010. I remember the constant threads but my brain learned to filter them out after awhile.

VCHAIN

BTC was shilled on /g/. Antshares was shilled pretty heavily here, but nothing quite like Chainlink of course. There just wasn't the sheer number of people interested and the memes weren't as spicy.

Bean Cash was heavily shilled as the next big thing after Ethereum. It had some nice memes as well but not as good as CL.

How did something like chainlink even catch on in this shithole?? It should've been on /g or /sci but there's NONE in there and instead you have a group of literal zoomer brainlets who don't even know how economy works and have never ran a business constantly parroting about "muh 4th industrial revolution" and "muh decentralized oracles". It really drags down the credibility of chainlink when only biztards are interested in it but not actual nerds who get hard on pentesting cybersecurity systems and writing for loop codes on an invoice managing software.

There were many coins shilled with the same intensity, but none with the same duration.

>>12350700
Anyone who got into bitcoin from /g/ probably just moved to the crypto containment board here. No one on /g/ cares about crypto now, it's all memes about iphones and how shitty intel processors are. Oh and install gentoo because botnet.

>many coins shilled with the same intensity, but none with the same duration
This. Most crashed and burned gloriously.
As a counterpoint though I first heard about zrx here before it blew up.

>>12350700
It will be interesting to see in retrospect how the project evolves. It seems to be a good bet, although adoption of high value SC will take longer than the Zoomer's patience.

>>12350809
who cares? prices go up on speculation

>>12350700
I hope you internalize your reasoning and don’t buy into the chainlink meme. And I hope you remember this post 5 years from now when the “muh 4th industrial revolution” has begun to actually change the world and you realize this is happening when it’s too late for you to make it. Hopefully your government will support UBI at that point, amirite?

>>12350839
Right so let's wait for the SC bubble.

>>12350628
I remember back in Sept/Oct 2017 LINK being shilled as a moonshot alongside a few absolute shitcoins like REQ and ETHBET

>>12350628
Monero but no memes to speak of.

People here have trust issues. They want smart contracts to work. There is a big hope and belief behind CL love here.

>>12350628
Nothing else has been. So fucking dumb that it is middleware too. I just think that we are under attack from a marketing group or a discord but I could be wrong.

>>12350700
some pajeet ico buyers and old fags spammed it as a joke then new fags came along and thought they were beibg serious

>>12350628
>buy doge

>>12350628
it all started with a cube, first it was annoying then they spam you more and more and more, until you finally give up and decided fuck it im going to look into it. Once you done reading the white paper and DYOR you realised you are the biggiest faggot for ignoring it all this time. Now do the related pic faggot.

Newfags ITT
What is Stablecoin
What is Pandacoin ( The one that started here as a joke )

Back in 2015-2016ish, Eth was shilled quite a bit but Biz wasnt all about crypto at the time. Most of the threads back then were about dropshipping and finance stuff from what i remember.

>>12351003
No. See, the thing is, if someone bought link then he [is already retarded of course, but that's not the point] quickly realizes that he fell for a meme and bought a literal shitcoin. So, what is his next step? He goes to /biz and starts to shill his shitlink, hoping that the price will go up again and he will get rif of the bags.
Of course that doesn't happen.
So, the linktard gets more and more frustrated and addicted to the link memes. Finally, the IQ of the linktard (already in critically low double digits, even before buying the memetoken) falls below the level of ambient air temperature, his consciousness switches off and the peripheral nervous system involuntarily connects to the hive mind of link shill collective on /biz.
Then, a linktard transforms into a new form, which is called linkshill.
The linkshill is completely lost to the humanity, he cannot be reasoned with and you cannot sway him with arguments. Linkshill's nervous system is fully controlled by the hive mind and his body can only react to certain external stimuli. You can see it for yourself, how it looks like, in this very thread - the absolute state of link shills, their ''arguments'' look like a weird mix of mumbling of a paranoid lunatic during a full moon and a Buddhist monk in a deep state of dissociation

>BELIEVE IN LINK ANON EOY $1000 DON'T LISTEN TO FUD EOY $2000 LINK MARINES ASSEMBLE EOY $5000 SERGEY IS OURGUY EOY $10000 WE ALL GOING TO MAKE IT EOY $20000 MAINNET SOON EOY $50000 FROM THERE TO ZE MOON EOY $100000 OOOOOMMMMMMM

>>12350628
I remember Etherum being shilled on /biz/ when it was <$1. God I wish I listened.

>>12351138
Do you listen now? If yes why?

>>12350628
look up digimarines

>>12350628
Digibyte

>>12351145
Look up DGB (Digibyte and Digimarines). Many anons are atill holding and lost their investment. Personally I will never buy LINK. My brother lost $68k by investing in REQ and this was also shilled here.

>>12350711
this. been around since the start of 2017 and have seen tons of coins get shilled as hard or harder than chainlink but usually the shills lose interest after the dump. I don't think it will be nearly as big as the deluded zoomers here do but I'm holding a decent sized stack just because of the meme magic.

>>12351367
The fact that link is still discussed means it passes the 4chan autism test...4chan is basically a decentralized research hub.

>>12351099
Weird I haven't seen this pasta before

>>12351528
this is precisely why CL will succeed. Had this been plebbit, conversation would have been shut down as a duplicate thread. CL has been discussed ad nauseum, then rediscussed ad nauseum. It is FUD proof now.

you realize link was only posted here as a joke in the beginning, right?

just because newfags turned up and didn't get the joke, and actually thought people were talking about chainlink seriously doesn't change the fact that it's interest on 4chan is entirely because of memes and nothing more.

>>12352083
>you realize link was only posted here as a joke in the beginning, right?
you fell for the 'Link is a meme' meme

>>12352102
how is it possible to fall for reality? if you were around a year and a half ago, you would have seen how it all started.

its even right there in the archives. the fact that no link bagholder ever goes to check it out just shows what a beta-male support group chainlink bagholders and their threads are.

>>12352122
>if you were around a year and a half ago
I've been here since the inception of this cesspool, and plenty of shit gets shilled here, some jokingly, some seriously. Regardless of how ridiculous the initial wave of threads were and their false promises and hype, the fact is Link is a legitimate project with plenty of solid ties based in reality. Like anything here, you need a solid bullshit filter to ignore 99% of the retarded posts and you need to dyor.

>>12352122
Almost 24/7 lurker since day 1 because depression n shiet. Chainlink weren't a joke, ever. And back in the days weaponized autism was way more efficient and serious about connecting the dots and following the breadcrumbs. Now who is in the know is quiet and newfags are lost in the fud/shill/pasta. Godspeed.

Kek i remember I got into crypto 1 week before the ico signup started. I actually thought I had signed up for blockcat ico which was a bit before. Was legit disappointed when I went through my emails and saw I had signed up for the wrong ico...

32k link atm btw

>>12350628
Nothing has sustained /biz/'s interest for a year and a half like LINK. Antshares came and went really quickly
