I'm aware that this is considered FUD at this point, but it bothers me that the whitepaper literally mentions the price hitting a ceiling *below* where we're at right now. Doesn't that make LINK overpriced? Has Sergey announced something to explain why this wouldn't be the case since?

>>21835875
why? this was in the original whitepaper and one of the team members that ended up leaving left BECAUSE of the fact that they started changing fundamental goals when the CMO realized that speculation could push the price much higher resulting in the ability to incentive more "partnerships"
the only issue is, they didn't see DeFi fucking gas prices this hard so now they're using those tokens to subsidize calls made by companies that are using Chainlink AKA the company pays the ~$2 per call but SmartContract (parent company of Chainlink) pays the ~$70-90 gas fee
which is why we're seeing 500k being sold at these high prices every 10 days or so lately
i still hold LINK but only because i believe people will continue to FOMO in and we'll probably hit $25 at least at which point i'll start selling

454 grams in a pound
1 cup of coffee (beans) approx 82 grams
Link says coffee can cost as much as 800/pound: https://web.archive.org/web/20190515040953/https://www.cnn.com/travel/article/worlds-most-expensive-cup-of-coffee/index.html

When breaking down and explaing a complex financial systems, ie: taking and sending payment through ach or debit card, they tend to use coffee as the hypothetical product. They do this because its easy to relate to and everyone knows what coffee is. Everyone loves coffee. When I'd get a financially illiterate customer that didn't know how to use a debit card, I'd explain it by saying "okay, let's say you purchase a cup of coffee...." and explain the exchange of money with a real life example.
