Chainlink is partnered with Cornell's IC3, to help launch the first Intel SGX secured link between smart contracts and external data. This more secure way of running an oracle is the future and they're glad to be moving it forward.
- (https://create.smartcontract.com/#/contracts/cc3ea3c76b5a60f171e0eaf223146f34?tab=info))


Chainlink has been chosen as a 2017 Blockchain Applications Cool Vendor by Gartner. This validates the value that CTOs and CIOs see in our more secure approach to connecting smart contracts with critical external resources. - (https://www.gartner.com/doc/3698947/cool-vendors-blockchain-applications-))

Chainlink is presently working with SWIFT on their own SWIFT Smart Oracle. Allowing smart contracts on various networks to make payments, send governance instructions, and release collateral with over 11,000 banks. - (https://www.slideshare.net/slideshow/embed_code/key/HJglipax9KmMPx))

SWIFT's premier blockchain project consists of two main pillars:
1) Distributed Ledger Tech or DLT (basically a blockchain)
2) Smart contracts

Smart contracts are meant to bridge the gap between external data and blockchains.

SWIFT is pretty far along with the first pillar (DLT), but has nothing at all yet for smart contracts; except for Smartcontract.com/Chainlink of course.

The "gpi" thing in OP's pic is a global payments initiative, and the third phase of gpi also involves DLT and related options.
This may very well include Smartcontract.com/Chainlink, of course; but the partnership is still in its infancy.

Very first line of that SWIFT document:
>Distributed Ledger Technology (DLT) and Smart Contracts (SC) promise to transform automation in the financial industry, and are generating huge interest amongst financial institutions and technology providers.

Nicely outlines the two main parts as listed above: (1) DLT and (2) Smart Contracts.

The Legend of Zergey

The dot com bubble lasted around a decade. We're at a similar stage as that was around 1997, giving us about 2-3 years of inflated growth. There will probably be another crash, but like the dot com crash, you'll see giants rise out of the ashes. Like Google, Amazon, etc, there will be crypto that persists through the bubble bursting. These will be the coins with fundamentally solid use cases. Crypto is here to stay.

Massive consulting firms like Capgemini are devoting entire reports to smart contracts, specifically mentioning Smartcontract.com (= Chainlink) and Sergey Nazarov by name as the sole smart contract solution that can use external data thanks to oracles.
Source: https://www.febelfin.be/sites/default/files/InDepth/smart-contracts.pd_.pdf

Excerpts:
>Sometimes, external inputs such as prices, performance, or other real-world data may be required to process a transaction, and oracle services help smart contracts with inputs such as these.

>Smart contracts will also need to be able to work with trusted external data sources if they are to utilize external information. Smart contracts can achieve this with the help of oracles – programs providing smart contracts with the data they need from the external world or carrying the commands they need to send to other systems. Sergey Nazarov, Cofounder and CEO, smartcontract.com – a startup specializing in building oracles – outlines how connectivity with real-world data will be key.

If you don't know what Capgemini is: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Capgemini

Back in 2015 the World Economic Forum also mentioned smartcontract(s).com by name:http://www3.weforum.org/docs/WEF_GAC15_Technological_Tipping_Points_report_2015.pdf#page=24

""We recently made the switch from Oraclize to Chainlink because of the decentralised aspect of Chainlink. The way we use Chainlink is pretty simple; our smart contracts track packages by using multi-carrier shipping API’s like Easypost and Postmen to view the delivery status of a package. We connect to, and pull data from, these API’s using Chainlink.
Before we made the switch from Oraclize to Chainlink we relied on one single API to serve us the correct data, which simply wasn’t secure enough when dealing with people’s money. Chainlink allowed us to stay decentralised and improve the security of our platform by allowing us to pull data from several API’s.
We are bullish on LINK and hope to accelerate the adoption by using it in our own project. There are so many use cases for LINK, our project is just one of them.""

Look at ETH.
What makes it worth the $300 it is today?
Smart contracts
They are revolutionary. Don't know why? Google it. You will find all sorts of uses for them, from Finance, Insurance companies, Airlines, you name it. There is a problem however, which is probably slowing down ETH's growth. Right now, smart contracts on the Ethereum network are limited; it's confined within the blockchain and with data on the blockchain.
Chainlink changes that.
All of those potential uses for Smart Contracts - that's all now a very legitimate possibility now. In the simplest terms, Chainlink allows for external data to inform smart contracts. When you consider the fact that it's decentralised, it gets a whole lot better.
People that keep saying things like "why would banks use chainlink when they can just make their own version" clearly don't understand the fundamentals of this project. Chainlink's goal is not to "be used" like (e.g.) Ripple hopes to achieve.
Chainlink is merely the bridge that enables data which is outside of the Ethereum 'universe', to communicate with it, and thus execute various actions. Thus, it's not unlikely that adopters will use their own private blockchain (biggest reason would be to avoid the market fluctuations in it's value). But - what will they use to get their data, onto the blockchain - whether it be their own token, eth, etc... Chainlink.

WWWWWWWWTTTTTTTFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF ALLLLLLLLLLLLL MY LINK NOOOOOOOOOOOOO

>>3839021
1. Eth and smartcontracts. We all know smartcontracts are revolutoinary, but their use cases are limited. Smartcontracts are awesome, but they are confined within the blockchain and data on the blockchain. In otherwords, right now smartcontracts are "you send 1 eth and I'll send back 1000 McTokens", and this contract is verifiable/trustless/amazing but its stuck within the universe of Ethereum and the data Ethereum understands

2. It is possible to use external data to inform these contracts, but right now that process is centralized. This is a problem. Lets say the external data is a transaction of Dollars for ETH. So you send 300$ to bank account X, and then I send one Eth to your address. Right now you either do that through a third party (CoinBase), OTC (LocalBitcoins) or whatever else centrlized system you want to use.

Knocking out that centralization, where you have to trust someone, is THE key to SmartContracts having a real world use case. But how do you get that information -- the fact that the $300 has been sent -- onto the blockchain using data that the smartcontract understands?

3. Oracles. Right now the answer is "hey we can hire Oracle X to do the translation to represent this bank dollar transaction on the blockchain." The "oracle problem" with this is that you are 100% TRUSTING that oracle to act prudently. That they don't tamper with the data. So we can kill coinbase but now we have to trust the oracle instead of coinbase .This is a HUGE problem for Banks who want to get into blockchain but have to trust a centralized oracle to translate data. This Oracle can be hacked, falsified, defrauded, really all the problems that come with centralization.
4. ChainLink - this service DECENTRALIZES that translation process of the Oracle. Now, the translation is trustless, and you have a trustless data feed that informs the trustless smart contract.

>>3839033

Multibillion dollar institutions can rely on distributed blockchain technology and know the data that informs their smart contracts is tamperproof.

So Thats what ChainLink does. ChainLink is the first decentralized Oracle that allows anyone to securely provide smart contracts with access to external data, off-chain payments, and really literally any other API you can dream up. Confirmation of delivery of an items (RFID, like Walton), confirmation of a wire being sent or received, interest rates from any central bank, sports scores, product/machine uptime, price of Eth/BTC in real time, weather patterns etc. Right now smart contracts are simple if/then functions where you go and manually do the if so the then comes back. Now with Oracles smartcontracts can automatically confirm or deny if then statements without any human interaction. Transactional automation for agreed upon terms on steroids.

Anyone can now engrain off-chain data directly onto the blockchain in an actually decentralized way and use that data to directly inform trustless smart contracts, and since the Oracle is decentralized you know the data feed is secure and you’re not concerned with tampering on the Oracle’s part. This is like a skeleton key to actualize the data on the blockchain and apply that data to real world use cases.

Essentially, Smart Contracts are flawed because they, by their very nature, can't interact with data outside the blockchain. Oracles are the bridge which allow that to happen, but current oracles are centralized and could possibly manipulate the data they are passing for their own benefit, which causes big companies wanting to implement smart contracts to get cold feet.
Chainlink is a decentralized oracle network, which will allow the oracles on the network to act in a similar manner to how we see bitcoin miners interact with the bitcoin blockchain --- they don't care about what they're processing, they just process it.

>>3839042
This allows the trustless and tamperless translation of the data from the source to the smart contract, which opens up a whole world of possibilities. I wrote a couple examples to help open your mind to it:
Securities smart contracts such as bonds . . . You have a Bond which you have a smart contract for which is fed market data through an oracle, calculates the effective interest rate and payment based on the terms of your bond, and processes your dividends through a payment network oracle (SWIFT Payment network)
Insurance smart contracts, which uses data from IoT devices in your home to support claims for insurable events, such as your fire alarm or home security system automatically beginning a claim with the company providing your personal property insurance when one of those events occur.

Good compilation bro.
A bunch of these pastas were mine lol.

Update: I'm 40 minutes into the video and can't turn it off. It's 3 am and I have a Law School class in 5 hours. ChainLink is taking of my life but I'm a presale whale fag who is on the bring of making a quarter mil from this. I fucking love you ChainLink. You are /ourcoin/

>>3839118

Yes, that's the spirit. Law school be damned lmao. No stay in school.

I find it fascinating that people don't think this can get to $10 in spite of all this information.

>>3839134

Don't worry about that, they just want cheap LINK. They are constantly hooping that we panic sell at $0.10, which is why they set up their buy orders at a very low price. Don't be a victim of senseless FUD guys. HODL on to your link and if you must take profits, don't sell them too cheap.

Monolithic if backed up by evidence.

Thank you for compiling all of this info. 4chan is about to be shitting moon lambos.

I aint buying ath based on speculation, fucking stupid... i only buy at lows, only.

fucking kek at link. If it's really that great, why is it only on binance available?

>scam
>p & d

ive only been on /biz/ consistetly for a few months. i remember seeing ETH threads when it was under $10 but i wasnt that interested at the time so i didnt open them

is this what it was like in ETH threads back then?

All signs point high into the heavens with this coin. I think we might actually make it boys.

>>3839569
we're all gonna make it

>>3839569
Back in the early days of ETH there were actual major concerns.
Above all the fact that bitcoin itself can do smart contracts too, natively.

With Chainlink, there aren't even any real concerns.
It is the first decentralized oracle solution, and therefore the first TRUE oracle solution. Period.

And the basics are rock solid:
- peer-reviewed whitepaper
- massive business relationships
- massive exposure coming up at SIBOS
- industry interest in smart contracts (and Chainlink itself) -high
etc.

all this work for .1 fct...

>>3839640
Exactly this. You have to be completely retarded at this point not to see that LINK is an easy buy.

I cant even understand the thought process of nolinkers that hold other alts aside from ETH and completely dismiss LINK.

>>3840507
>>3839569

my only regret is that i didn't go balls deep in the presale and now merely hold 55k LINK...could've had 200k.

>>3839569
i bought eth at 9 something, and yes /BIZ/ was fudding it hard at the time.

Just because he showcase he can communicate with any Microsoft product doesn't mean it's a partnership .

>>3840843
bought 200 eth. now i have 150 eth and 100k link.
and yes i could/should have bought more and done it at better prices.

I want to buy in hard, but I wait for a better opportunity. Link WILL drop at least 15-20% with the actual bull run and the idiotic news selling. It is self-fulfilling prophecy thanks to retards, even though the coin is solid.
