Go on warosu, put the date to 2018 and start browsing. It was full of fud and shill. Full of hope and despair. Mainnet was always coming "soon". Every conference/event was special, but usually ended with the same slides. It was comfy in a way and really depressive as well.

>Hello /biz/. You don't need to know who I am and I am not anyone important. I am very much the average neet, however since a few years ago I have often had vivid dreams that come true.
>These dreams aren't like the stereotypical prophetic dreams you may think of when you imagine prophetic dreams. They aren't end of the world scenarios but usually just personal related revelations. Sometimes I've ignored a dream to my own detriment. For example, a dream revealed to me not to day trade and simply accumulate. As you might expect, I lost huge stacks of coins from moving them around after ignoring it and FOMOing thinking I could make gains.

>I have not been a big linker. I have often thought an ERC20 token can not be that valuable, that LINK is dependent of ETH and so on, although I held some anyway.

>Now, I recently had a dream concerning LINK. What you probably want to know is what is LINK going to be worth? Essentially, a lot. A lot. As in, the larps are real a lot(in the distant future, not eoy). Just as buying a few hundred dollars in BTC set you for life, if you invest now you will not have to work. I have no idea why it is worth so much, but I will not be ignoring this dream. Sergey seems to have been chosen ahead of time to head the project. Is not just a hobby project by him, he was picked specifically to do it. It is an intentional low key project worth potentially trillions in marketcap. Basically, the memes appear to be on the mark, even if by coincidence.

During the dumps back to $0.2 and then the following crab was really depressing for me and probably many others especially since I didn't have any extra money to buy more LINKs. It also depended on whether it was a silent time breadcrumbs/news wise or not since a $0.2 dump with good breadcrumbs was actually quite ok comfy. I was just 18yo back then and seeing my $10k go back to $3.5k wasn't the best feeling.

Link threads had that special quality about them, it's what got me into crypto. I remember the first ethereum shilling and i remember thinking it was never gonna happen.
Link shills gave the same feel. I was very excited. Then I got in at all time high, got distracted by diversifying into meme pump and dumps and lost all hope after the crash. Im glad the stinky linkies made it. But sad I cant join them.

The javascript has been hacked and now all LINK nodes are being affected, meaning they will go offline one by one.

But here's the real trick; every node that goes offline first has to be validated by other nodes, Thus the first node won't go offline until EVERY SINGLE NODE has verified it actually has gone offline

LINK will be in an infinite javascript loop. Maybe if you're a programmer you will recognize FOR and WHILE loops. Well.. This is a FOR loop that NEVER ends.

The price will TANK to at least 100 satoshi. Maybe even lower when the nodes are actually verified being offline.

Sergey is now busy setting up extra nodes to undo this process. Called contra-hacking. He has injected some GO-language code, pseudo-offline code, into the ChainLink network. This means nodes will appear the be online, while they are struggling to go offline, but in the meantime they cant because it isnt verified yet. Neat trick if you ask me, but it wont last long before the other nodes will know whats really going on.

I was at eth denver the other day and I went to the bathroom to take a dump. Midway through this guy starts talking to me about smart contracts from the next stall. At first I didn't respond because I thought he was on the phone but then he knocked on my stall and repeated the question. I said "umm not really" but he just kept talking about psd2 and sibos and iso20022. I said okay thanks for the information (trying to be polite). Then he asked if I wanted a t-shirt and pushed it under the stall. I said umm no thanks but he kept insisting. When I tried to flush and got up to leave he was pounding at the door yelling something about big macs and 1k eoy. I couldn't leave and had to call the police before I could leave the stall. After the police dragged this official member of the Chainlink team away I opened the stall door and saw feces spread all over the door. There were massive hand and foot prints of shit everywhere. About a dozen shitty chainlink shirts were on the ground and I had to step over them to leave. Wtf guys is this normal for chainlink?

I was at the fireside chat this week. At one point Tom called Sergey a sandwich fucker. He even accused Sergey of eating the sandwiches after busting loads into them. There was an intense bit of silence while Sergey glared. Beads of sweat formed on his forehead immediately, and his face was flush. He forced a chuckle into the microphone. Then he walked off stage and just out of the room where there was a magazine rack. He was still in full view of everyone through a window. He starts taking these magazines, two and three at a time, and just tearing them to shreds. Sometimes he would pick one up, and try to twist and tear the whole thing at once, but fail, so then he would start ripping out individual pages. He was facing away from everyone, so we couldn't see his facial expressions. This went on for two minutes at least. At this point I thought he was totally screwed, and that he had just ruined the reputation of chainlink in one fell swoop. However, he turned around and walked back into the room. He looked completely rejuvinated and full of vigor again. He proceeded to completely btfo Tom in every way, acting as if nothing out of the ordinary had happened. Afterwards, he even did a little q&a session after Tom left due to being frustrated from the btfo. Janitorial services were picking up the mess of shredded magazines at this point, and the only acknowledgement Sergey ever made to the mess was when one of the older janitors fell over while leaning to pick up the pieces. He sort of covered his hand with his mouth, clearly holding back laughter. It was bizarre, but with genius comes inevitable personality quirks.

I went to a McDonald's restroom and I saw this guy in there. he was sweating profusely and muttering to himself about a hooker and regretting what he's done. I tried to ignore him. I walked my hands and he got really, really close to me. he then brushed my arm with his sweating palm then quickly grabbed my forearm. I said WTF dude, stop sweating and touching me. he only said buy chainlink and perhaps both our problems will go away. I left the bathroom and I heard an order called for 6 bigmacs. this guy walks out, grabs the 6 bigmacs and dropped the fucking bag because he was so sweaty. one Mac even feel out of the wrapper and he picked it off the floor, took a bite and said it won't even matter if we all would just buy chainlink. gave me the chills.

then crypto went to the bottom and because i never made any gains at the point winter 18/19 arrived the price dumping mixed with the biz fud got me into not buying any more. i was depressed af and thought link and all crypto would go to 0.
then when it pumped past $1 i bought 500 more (poorfag).

I'm actually more qualified to talk about this than most anons.I'm employed with a cyber-techno machinations company, I do a lot of security analyst programming type work. Open source, decentralized, APIs, partnerships, you name it. We'd be one of the first companies in line for something like Chainlink, if the decentralized smart contract space had more value over traditional data exchanges. There's a catch though, an underlying flaw more deeply embedded in the bedrock of LINK than the very code itself. The flaw is with the concept, and it's this: Companies won't actually go through the hassle of trusting their data API's through crypto.
Now I can already hear your keyboards going frantic, but hear me out. /biz/ hates banks, and traditional data providers. But actual companies, businesses, and investors do not. There's an old saying you might have heard of: "If it ain't broke, don't fix it!". The idea that any of our bosses would give us the go ahead if we approached them to put our companies valuable data in a smart contract on a cryptocurrency called Chainlink, that they've never heard of, we'd be laughed out at best and fired on the spot at worst. We already have API data buyers and providers we trust.
'But Chainlink is trustless!' I hear you cry, but is that really a good thing? Just listen to the sound of it. Businesses don't want to spend millions of dollars on something that is trustLESS, they want something trustFUL. 'But the reputation system!', doesn't that defeat the whole point of your coin? If companies only trust nodes with high reputation, what's the difference between trusting banks and data providers that already have reputation, but in real life not on a computer screen.
The fact is, LINK is going to share the same fate as ETH will. A lot of 'real world application' hype, with a lot of 'crypto world application' reality. Only, this billion supply coin isn't going to come close to the $1k that Etherum hit. Happy gambling though anons.

Yeah, me neither. Sergey has ruined my family. Last summer, I approached the miserable fat fuck in the street, and asked him for his autograph, because my son is a huge fan. The fucking guy gave me the autograph and told me to burn in hell. Later, when I gave my son the autograph he started crying and said he hated me. Turns out the motherfucker didnt write his autograph, no, he wrote “you’re a piece of shit, and i fucked your mom". I’m now divorced, and planning a huge class-action lawsuit against the extra large devil that ruined my life. Your time is almost over, Sergey. All the people you’ve wronged will rise against you.

"Ring ring", the alarm clock said. "Ring ring, Sergey! It is time!" The alarm clock was programmed to sound just like Thomas' soft-spoken voice. Sergey had no choice but to wake up at the sound of the alarm clock he had set up through his own oracle node on the blockchain network many nights prior. While he was still feeling tired from the previous night of intense partying with on-chain verifiably legal Asian prostitutes and would have preferred to remain dormant for a few more hours, he knew the ineluctably of time's running its course was a factor beyond his God-like control. "Cursed be the fool who created the clock!" he exclaimed, half-angrily, half-jokingly, waking up Ting-Ting, the Vietnamese concubine. Alas, she didn't understand a single word of English. "Bring me my morning coffee, whore!", Sergey ordered. "And make it a large one!" Sergey knew the alarm clock's tamperproof and decentralized mechanism woke him up for a very specific reason on that day: so he would not forget to accomplish his duty. Like an Olympian God reminding humans of their roles in the world, the alarm clock reminded Sergey of his fate. Sergey booted his computer, drinking from his enormous cup while Ting-Ting massaged his feet. At last, the caffeine had entered his system and feeling finally ready to process; the ogre simply whispered: "Ahh... let the weekly dump begin..."

Biz in the middle of 2017-2018 was a very special time and place to be a part of. Maybe it meant something. Maybe not, in the long run . . . but no explanation, no mix of words or music or memories can touch that sense of knowing that you were there and alive in that corner of time and the world. Whatever it meant. . . .

There was madness in any direction, at any hour. If not in a breadcrumbs thread, then in seeing endless pink wojaks and fud threads during a mere 3% dip. . . . You could strike sparks anywhere. There was a fantastic universal sense that whatever we were doing was right, that we were keeping reddit poor. . . .

And that, I think, was the handle—that sense of inevitable victory over the forces of Old and Evil. Not in any mean or military sense; we didn’t need that. Our energy would simply prevail. There was no point in fighting—on our side or theirs. We had all the momentum; we were riding the crest of a high and beautiful wave. . . .

So now, less than five years later, you can jump onto warosu and search for link, and with the right kind of eyes you can almost see the high-water mark—that place where the wave finally broke and rolled back.

After Adelyn failed the spelling bee she was disowned by her family for committing a grave Chinese sin. Her father told her that he no longer had a daughter and the entire family turned their back on her. Distraught with nowhere to turn she headed back to campus her place of shame. It began raining then, silver streaks that hid her tears as she struggled to stay warm.
Sergey found her there at the library clutching a wet dictionary just trying to keep warm while memorizing the words. Sergey spoke to her in soft words that warmed her heart. Although Adelyn didn't know Sergey very well. He didn't look like a scammer; he just looked like a thin nerd that meant no harm.
Sergey saved her that day and brought her to a place where spelling doesn't matter. A place where people do as they please without worrying about knowing anything about the problems of the world.
And that place, frens, is ChainlInk, a new land of opportunity where problems that really don't exist are being solved. Adelyn says Sergey is a modern day Wittgenstein and orcales are his problem. Adelyn is not sure what an oracle is or why it's needed or even if it's needed but she still keeps that same dictionary on her bookshelf to remind her of that faithful first encounter with Sergey. The dictionary is faded and torn and really isn't much help but it still brings her warmth and that's what's most important.

>"Alright well... here we have Mr Sergey Nazarov, representing Smartcontract and their flagship blockchain oracle project, Chainlink! Please welcome Sergey to the stage"
>light applause gives way to the sound of heavy breathing and clipping as the sound of moist meat rubbing on flannel reverberates throughout the venue
>Sergey lumbers out on stage, carefully judging the distance between each step and taking several minutes to traverse the tiny set of stairs due to his prodigious bulk
>He stops at the top, wiping his brow vigorously. When his hand drops, his eyes are bloodshot and glazed, and he has mustard stains on his collar. He has either not noticed this or simply doesn't care.
>A brief look of surprise crosses his face as he remembers where he is
>"Ah so uh... funda...fundamentally"
>he fumbles with his little clicker and almost drops it after fishing it out of his pockets, which also seem to contain several spicy shaker fry packets from McDonalds
>one falls to the floor, and he turns away from the stage as if this will hide the fact that he is just sucking on his finger after dipping it in the bag
>"Yannow... I think I'll just let this neato little presentation present itself! Haha... there's a surprise at the end."
>He clicks through the slides on the projector for several minutes, yawning audibly and checking his phone as he does so.
>A smile creeps across his face as he nears the end of the presentation.
>"Oh, here's the new part."
>the last slide shows a new transaction from the usual wallet, this time selling off 1.4 million tokens in one batch
>he makes a hand gesture at the effects booth, and a small pyrotechnics display fires off while fresh fifty dollar bills rain down from above the stage
>he lies down in the money pile and makes a money angel as the curtains draw closed
>he is later seen being carried out on a stretcher to his limo, not because he is injured but because he is asleep

4000 sats or worse by next month. The project is possibly dead in the water after this knowledge.

Sybil attacks are possible since sybil resistance requires KYC or "trustworthy" node operators. Most people won't KYC because it's antithetical to the idea of crypto itself being decentralized and "anonymous". Therefore, since most operators won't want to KYC, LINK will not be sybil resistant.

Now why does RLC make LINK obsolete in this regard? It's simple. The PoCo algorithm is so well designed that iExec's dOracles can rely on it instead of KYC for sybil resistance.

Boom. I sold all of my LINK at 1.40 because I knew after RLC v3 dumped, that even LINK would dump.

I will not be buying back after learning this. I am all in RLC at the price of $0.50

Sorry gentlemen, I thought LINK was going to save me just like all of us did, but this is the nail in the coffin.

I saw Sergey Nazarov while visiting Auschwitz yesterday. Every time the tour guide started to talk about the camp he would interrupt by yawning really loudly and shout "Boring! Get to the good parts!" - I don't think he was even tired. When we got to the gas chamber he screamed "Fake, there were no gas chambers! The Soviets built this after the war" and then started mimicking a Jew suffocating on Zyklon B.
After the tour he walked straight up to me and said "they deserved it anyway", and praised the Nazis for their "decentralized" camp system, but they could have used an oracle to "improve the process." He then stood on a podium and informed everyone that Jews were "vermin" and that he had made it his mission to destroy the "Judeo-Bolshevic World Order."
Later that day the staff found pictures of the Chainlink logo stapled everywhere.
Even later they realized he stole most of shoes and striped pyjamas left by the gassing victims from the display. CCTV caught him walking around Salesforce HQ in the pyjamas pretending to be a ghost.
I can't believe anyone would buy a coin made by this guy.
