Can someone explain what's going on with LInk? why are all these threads popping up? Did I waste 720$? That was all the spare money I had

You bought the top didnt you? Don’t listen to a lot of these Chainlink assholes. They will tell you it’s going to $100 but in reality, it will need to correct to below $9 before it can do anything

I'm actually more qualified to talk about this than most anons.I'm employed with a cyber-techno machinations company, I do a lot of security analyst programming type work. Open source, decentralized, APIs, partnerships, you name it. We'd be one of the first companies in line for something like Chainlink, if the decentralized smart contract space had more value over traditional data exchanges. There's a catch though, an underlying flaw more deeply embedded in the bedrock of LINK than the very code itself. The flaw is with the concept: Companies won't actually go through the hassle of trusting their data API's through crypto.

Now I can already hear your keyboards going frantic, but hear me out. /biz/ hates banks, and traditional data providers. But actual companies, businesses, and investors do not. There's an old saying you might have heard of: "If it ain't broke, don't fix it!". The idea that any of our bosses would give us the go ahead if we approached them to put our companies valuable data in a smart contract on a cryptocurrency called Chainlink, that they've never heard of, we'd be laughed out at best and fired on the spot at worst. We already have API data buyers and providers we trust.

'But Chainlink is trustless!' I hear you cry, but is that really a good thing? Businesses don't want to spend millions of dollars on something that is trustLESS, they want something trustFUL. 'But the reputation system!', doesn't that defeat the whole point of your coin? If companies only trust nodes with high reputation, what's the difference between trusting banks and data providers that already have high reputation, but in real life not on a computer screen.

The fact is, LINK is going to share the same fate as ETH will. A lot of 'real world application' hype, with a lot of 'crypto world application' reality. Only, this billion supply coin isn't going to come close to the $1k that ETH hit. Happy gambling though anons

Nobody knows, it's crypto. The only way to invest in crypto is to put some in and forget about it for a long time.

Dude do you think you're in a position to make informed decisions about whether Chainlink is or isn't a good investment?
If not, what the fuck are you throwing your money at? The people who "made it" from LINK often lost 50% of what they were holding. Are you knowledgeable enough to hold through that sort of drop?
