It's interdesting Jewbase is listing ETC but only allowing institutional shekels to trade it. Maybe the same tactic will be used when LINK gets listed there and Poloniex or Bittrex? Maybe only USD or USDC pairs even? That would also stop a lot of people capitalizing on arbitrage. I'm curious what tokens will be reserved for accredited investors too. Obviously you can still trade on whatever DEX but being it seems like Jewbase, Poloniex, and Gemini are setting up a colored table for us in the back. Mmm.

PWC are looking to docusign who are a known core supporter of chainlink. PWC is using REQ. REQ is a core supporter of chainlink.
It is logical to conclude that PWC are investigating chainlink.

Read further - AXA are using chainlink via Fizzy. PWC references AXA as another example.

Can someone explain to me the difference between 0xBitcon and Chainlink?
(serious question)
As I understand it 0xbitcoin is a mineable token, while Chainlink is a token to pay for use of a separate platform. Aside from the 'inflation argument' I have no idea why one is better or worse than the other. I would be greatly enlightened by some careful explanation of why these differences are significant.

Crypto is based on decentralization.
Smart contracts only became possible with crypto.
Mainstream smart contracts are only possible with oracles.
Chainlink is the first, one, and only decentralized oracle system.

It stands to be so much bigger than ETH, which only does crypto smart contracts, making it a glorified token dispenser.
But keep it under your hat, crypto still needs to bleed some more.

>and the fact its obvious you are contemplating buying either of the two most shilled products here with no knowledge of either
Well he totally misjudged my intentions by a country mile, why would I be asking 'what's the diff' if wanted to buy them, surely it suggests the opposite - that I can't understand why anyone would buy either?
>thing 0xBitcorn is a scam.
Why - how are they unrelated? Aren't they both means of facilitating smart contracts? What is the point of differentiation and to both end users and say people who are making Smart Contracts - what is the difference?
So link is a 'decentralized Oracle' which means that the 'oracles' can't be gamed or cheated, cool, but the services and info they're pulling info is off-chain, so how is that any different from 0xBitcoin? What's the point of being decentralized? If there is a point - then why do we need 0x?

Yeah but, and here's what I never got about link: that data has to come from off-chain anyway, so while yes, you can't 'hack' the oracle itself to make it give a false completion (I'm not sure what the correct terminology is), and I can understand why that may give it a slight edge over 0xBitcoin, that data is still coming from a party who may either produce inaccurate data, or fudge the data, or send false information to activate the contract. My question is, if we're trusting these data providers in the first place - why do we need a decentralized Oracle? Maybe there's some specific applications I haven't thought of, but, for example - if I book tickets for a hotel room, I'm trusting that the hotel room is good and will be up to scratch, now how does a Smart Contract make that process any more trustworthy? Once I've paid, once I've clicked the button that says 'yes I'm in my room' - now what? I can't reverse the charges because otherwise that would enable fraud...
I just don't see where a decentralized oracle is useful - especially when the selling point is that it pulls data off-chain.
I don't see the oracle as being the weakest point. I realize that's not an argument against fixing the problem, but I don't see why it's a big deal.

First mover advantage is everything in this space. Ethereum can only process 14 transactions a second but it’s by the far the most used smart contract platform. Why is that? Because they were the first to make a solid, functional, and decentralized platform that was Turing-complete. Yeah other platforms might offer slight advantages over Ethereum, everyone isn’t going to shift over to something different unless there’s a HUGE improvement. Once it scales it’ll be basically untouchable.

>>9868561
0xbitcoin and ChainLink are extremely different things. I think you have a misunderstanding of what 0xbitcoin is- it’s essentially the same as all these useless bitcoin forks, except this is made on the Ethereum network. Almost all coins and tokens have some sort of smart contract functionality, but don’t get that confused with usefulness.

Centralized oracles currently rely on said party for accurate information. Think of it like this:
1. Think about how hard it would be to actually fudge the data: If I wanted to make btc seem like it was $10,000 right now to an oracle accessing a coinmarketcap API, I’d have to hack into the website. Centralized oracles are just as vulnerable to this, and are still used. The solution is to take data from multiple sources and find a way to aggregate it.
2. These “providers” have an incentive to provide accurate data. If they don’t, you wouldn’t use them. If I request the bitcoin price from CMC, Binance and Bittrex I have to reason to assume they’d deliberately send me a false price.
The worry of data coming from “centralized sources” is just silly. All the data we consume comes from centralized sources, and how often is it wrong?

Probably, they advertise themselves as a 'middleware' or something which I took to mean as a way of interfacing off-chain data with the blockchain. And that what distinguished it from chainlink is that the latter has 'decentralized oracles'. But as you've said - it would be tremendously difficult to hack the CMC API and that places like them Binance, Bittrex are generally considered trustworthy, yes, not 100% but trustworthy enough that in certain applications you would use them as a source of data.
So why do we need a decentralized oracle if it's only as good as it's data providers?

To rephrase the question: what applications is a decentralized oracle of particular advantage when data sources, such as APIs are generally agreed upon or considered trustworthy enough to be the sources of data in a smart contract?

>>9869059

Any application, especially ones involving millions of not billions of dollars.

The benefit of decentralization is that NEET #482 who lives in his mom’s basement in Omaha, Nebraska can use his computer as a node in the network, but cannot tamper with the information that’s running through his node, thanks to Intel SGX trusted hardware. The problem with centralized oracles on the blockchain is that 1. they aren’t completely trustworthy, and 2. it goes against the decentralized nature of the blockchain itself.

The entire point of smart contracts is to be able to make and execute automated and trustless legally-binding agreements. If there is anyway any party could tamper with the contract, no one would trust it. Ethereum successfully made smart contracts trustless, and ChainLink is trying to make the data they interact with trustless as well

Their motto was "we are digimarines and we are not selling!" and they posted many amusing images in their constant support threads.
