/biz/ - Business & Finance

no
one is a DAPP platform the other is a DAPP

>>21534663
More like https

>>21534663
Furniture salesman here, yes

>>21534663
eth - BUS
link - HTTPS

>>21534663
imagine admitting you're a front end eng on biz.

>>21534663
Ethereum: The Internet
Chainlink: An API that's somehow valued at 13% of the Internet's total value

>>21534712
^underrated

>>21534825
Don't let them know how cheap ETH is anon.

>>21534663
More like PHP and https in one from my understanding.

>>21534825
Unironically these days Internet practically equals to the World Wide Web

No you kinda got this backwards, to put it in really simple terms so other anons can understand my post as well:

If we assume that Ethereum to smart contracts and transactions is like the internet to websites and individual data requests, then Chainlink is the equivalent of blacked.com

>>21534896
That actually also makes sense, thanks anon.

>>21534663
ETH = PHP
LINK = Node js

A better front-end analogy is
BTC = HTML
ETH = JavaScript
LINK = XMLHttpRequest

>>21534845
terrible.

>>21534663
It's the htpps equivalent cause it secures the data

>>21534980
Imagine thinking anyone is going to read that useless word salad

>>21534663
Immagine if you could invest in http how much money you'd be making.. do the math
Link is the same

Jesus, it's true /biz/ is full of technical illiterates.

>>21534971
OP, it just occurred to me a lot of people on this board will be too young to get this analogy so let me explain
If you look at the oldest websites before JS they were just documents with formatting. JS was all the rage when it came out but it was basically only good for adding little animations another superficially dynamic stuff to your webpages for a long time.
XMR was basically introduced to make apps like Gmail work and it was the first thing that made JS actually useful. (also just so happens "useful" = "able to reliably transmit real-time data in a reliable way" in both cases)

>>21534663
No it's equal to a JSON scraper. It connects with APIs, that's it. Basically, log in with google or facebook kinda functionality you see added on sites these days.
It adds a lot to the functionality, it's those few lines of JavaScript that fetches your twitter following.
Protip, look into Holochain, that's gonna be more disruptive than anything else.

>>21535213
And now XMR has already been depreciated by fetch. What does that tell you?

>>21534663
Yeah dude, chainlink is CSS. What the fuck?

>>21534663
No one will use a Protocol which is not free, doesn't scale and doesn't provide privacy.

Smart people will make money right now from the idiots that think Eth and Link will be the next internet.

>>21534663
Roof repairman here, yes

this thread is a proof that /biz/ has a collective single digit of IQ

>>21534663
chainlink is a json parser valued at 6 billion, shorted yesterday, I’m going to be so fucking rich

>>21534825
Imagine paying $50 to browse a webpage

>>21534663
BTC = tcp/ip
ETH = netscape navigator
LINK = bonzi buddy

>>21534663

>your wasting company resources posting here
>Securityyyyyyy

>>21534980
>debt of minimum imbued onto the network creates value potential
Do people really believe this? There are infinite examples of energy usage without a corresponding “imbued value” of any kind.

>>21534825
>>21534845
ETH bulls have revealed themselves. Don’t let them know boys. This is our time.

>>21534663
erc-10 token soon, this will dump to 0

this is basically what chainlink is:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Uq5XmNS1M-g

btc = <table>
eth = float: right
link = display: flex

>>21535312
I hate reddit too, but this is cruel

>>21534663
Fellow dev here, it is more like Angular or Vue.js where people can build applications using these frameworks to save time and money

>>21535349
It tells me you're either a zoomer or misunderstood my analogy.
fetch is just a different browser API that lets you do the same thing as XHR with promises.
Before XHR there wasn't an async BOM accessor to external APIs, you just had to navigate webpages synchronously.

>>21535213
so all in XMR?

>>21535908
only real OGs will remember

>>21534663
From what I get it
Ethereum = Coca-Cola
Chainlink = Big Mac
Yes you don't need one but god damn what a good combo it is if you have both

>>21534663
Let me summarize it differently:
Protocols(infrastructure), smart contracts(processing) and oracles(data)

Really, I don't get how people in tech use weird analogies like that...


Ethereum = Computer
Chainlink = TCP (arguably SSH?)

Other analogies just don't work

>>21534663
>let’s say ethereum = the OG Internet/ARPANET

Will there be suicide tent for people who lost their entire fortunes in the ChainGang? Also in 2021 will 5,000 Link enough or me to buy a new scooter?

>>21535662
I do... and stop ignoring all the rest of the properties of bitcoin

>>21534663
Eth is JS, Chainlink is the Fetch API
