He's also incorrect.

The logic is correct - doing math and letting the public check it will result in correct answers. But that relies on an assumption that can't work: a checking window.

Money Skelly says that every computation comes with a window of time in which the public can check for correctness. If someone, or a coalition of someones, finds a better answer, they get OP's deposit as a reward. Seems great right?

Wrong. Expand the scope to the aggregate case. We have only one possible nash equilibrium: it's adaptive to give right answers and only right answers. If it were adaptive to fuck with answers and skim off the top, that would be the norm and the 'police miners' would make MAD FUCKING BANK in a very short period of time. All the incorrect answers would be policed. So nobody will.

But that's where things get tricky. You see, it's plausible to wait for the important contracts and only defect on them, relying on the law of large numbers to make it highly unlikely that a police-miner will randomly be checking your work. After all, since 99.99% of computations are correct *by volume,* you're free to be incorrect on 90% of those computations *BY VALUE.* And the police-miners have nothing but random-chance to rely on to check your work.

In the ChainLink way of doing things, you have a reputation to uphold, and there's a coalition of computers running the same computation that you must agree with in order to keep that reputation. Your trustworthiness is being judged *in real time,* rather than during a finite (and therefore exploitable) window.

That is a false explanation. Buterins proposal would work gor tge same reason that pow and pos work. Economic incentives. You really don't need decentralized oracles because the big important contracts are more valuable and therefore there exists a higher economic incentive for a greater number of fact checkers to be checking your work and therefore makes it more likely you will lose your deposit on larger contracts by providing incorrect answers.

Augur pays people to be the oracles. Augur is a wayy less efficient oracle platform at it's essence. MakerDAO needed a solution before there were any others out there.

Basically there will never be an ecosystem because a healthy equilibrium is necessary for evolution.

Either Nash would result in a lot of investment: either EVERYONE defects, so policing is profitable and reliable, so you have an ecosystem; or, nobody defects because it never works. That's why ChainLink is set up the way it is - the decision to cooperate or defect is punished/rewarded during the same system-iteration in which the decision is made. That's what makes the system stable, and stability is what invites investment.

Neither is LINK dumbass. It's equally as centralized and shitty using the same shit system but you instead get to pay the centralized party with LINK.

Which is exactly why Chainlink works and MoneySkelly is silly. You have to have the contract writer define the redundancy of the contract in order to provision the correct amount of computers to make the computation. Otherwise you're reliant on hindsight to make that decision for you, which in this case means you've lost the sum of the contract value.

You are just explaining why chainlinks approach works. Not why buterins idea won't work. Both chainlink and buterins proposal work just fine but buterins ptoposal is much simpler to inplement and is cheaper at the same time. No reason to create a whole other convoluted system with a token that's stakable and requires ethereum transactions just to operate when you could just have a checking period to catch all bad actors for a chance to collect the bad actors collateral.

>>15859015
I'm explaining that in the aggregate, MoneySkelley's assumptions don't hold up to the game-theoretical outcomes. The assumption that people will police other people for a payout is correct IF AND ONLY IF there is a temporally reasonable structure for that payout. Saying 'there is a window for people to check your work' assumes that people will be scanning the system for bad work to cash in on. That will lead the system to one of two polar outcomes: either it's profitable to defect *in general,* or it is *not.* In either case, we have a lot of police or no police. If we have a lot of police, then rapidly there will be ZERO defection in the system because all normal miners will become police miners. So it isn't a "saddle point," in the game theoretical sense - it's just an occasional theoretical outcome. In the case that it's never profitable to defect, then you write a script that says, essentially, "do the right thing until Berkshire Hathaway IP addresses send you a job, in which case defect and fuck them for billions."

In that case, the chance that your bad outcome is policed is dependent on the AGGREGATE saddle point, not the VALUE DEPENDENT saddle-point.

In other words, chainlink's philosophy of per-contract redundancy is the clear and obvious winner.

link discussions always miss the point.
There's one layer: the oracle system.
Link system is centralized but whatever.
Another is how much the token is worth - tokenomics.
Regardless of how well the technical layer works, the token is worthless. It's very simple: a user buys link, immediately transfers to the node, the node potentially sells immediately.
At what point is there a value transfer to link holders? There isn't any.
The holders can only hope to dump their stash before nodes sell - but that's only going to lead nodes to immediately short-sell the payment, making the money velocity very high and making the task nearly impossible.

Which means all profits can only come from other speculators, and the token itself is worthless (not exactly zero, but very close). Which is also the story of most tokens and coins.

Btw the link collateral system is really sinister: it's designed to extract money out of dumb node owners in the last stage of the hype pump. As the price falls, they are going to have to add more link to keep its value, effectively transferring wealth to other holders. It's going to continue until they are completely out of funds.
Smart nodes are going to borrow their entire collateral and earn interest on acquired stablecoins (with higher rates), insulating themselves from the price fall and creating no net demand for link except interest. Price goes up - pay part of the debt. Price goes down - borrow more. Collateral value kept stable.
At the end, even if 99% of all link is going to be locked as collateral, the token velocity is going to be so high as to make the price very close to zero.

Calculate the price on your own or you won't believe me: $10M in payments daily, nodes hold one payment 5 minutes.

because

>>15859929
this reasoning is completely backwards. The price isn't going to be X just because even if that's required for the system to work.

What happens if/when contracts mandate LINK be held in the node for its duration? Even if node operators are buying LINK just to cover the contract, they're still removing that velocity you're talking about.

My favorite part of this is that I've been pushing an oracle system for a decade that makes link look like backyard dogshit, and it doesn't matter because the most emotional appeal I'm able to generate is autist morons on a Tibetan basket weaving forum saying "no link." The real irony in all this is that I could make link look like bronze compared to steel. Fuck all of you.

When you see a gig economy thing named after a river in a tippy-fedora to amazon, go with that. It's me. Fuck link even if it's the best bet to date. I got you homies.

MakerDao does use oracles you retard.
See:
>"The reference price (ETHUSD) for the Maker system is provided via an oracle (the medianizer), which collates price data from a number of external price feeds."
https://developer.makerdao.com/feeds/

And here's Rune (founder of MakerDao) literally talking about using Chainlink:

MakerDao is explicitly looking to decentralize its oracles, and are literally looking at Chainlink.
