Set up a node on AWS last night. Went through all the docs and whitepaper this morning to make notes. Am about to start picking the node apart and potentially starting to write an external adapter today.

I would get on this stuff now, because by the time the Mainnet launches, there are going to be a lot of people already with working nodes/data.

Actually, it can be up to both the node and the client what data/API is to be used.

Good thing is, the EU just effectively forced banks to open up their internal APIs to third parties, effectively decentralizing internal bank data.

I unironically market dumped my stack of LINK yesterday and put it all into Mobius. I'm sorry but the lack of updates, developments, communication and quite frankly the tasteless overshilling of LINK around these parts has ruined my enthusiasm for it. I don't really think Sergey has his heart in Chainlink anymore. Something changed along the way, I can feel his enthusiasm for it waning similarly to how he left NXT like a thief in the night. He probably had a great time raising millions of dollars with the ICO and being a famous celebrity on biz, and I'm happy for him, I really am, but he lost his hunger for success along the way. The Bitcoin superconference will likely be a total shitshow. I've no doubt the price will dump within minutes of Sergey walking off stage. I really enjoyed holding LINK, it was a pretty cool bag to carry for a while, but Mobius is definitely the new wave of oracle tech and has the momentum/edge now.

Does anyone know how the penalties will work?
for example I don't think the penalty should be the same for giving false data as going offline due to power/internet outage
Imagine you have your entire stack of links locked in multiple assignments (because why not maximize your profit obviously by running it on full steam) and you have a power outage or you lose your internet connection thus losing everything? I mean even if you have some back up power/internet supply it's a risk, therefore I'm pretty sure that's not how the penalty would work, but maybe you guys already touched on this subject?

Where did the idea of having to fight for data feeds come from? The customers will be specifying the data they want and the sources they want it from in the smart contracts. There won't be any fighting for anything, and there aren't any super secret APIs that you can corner the market on. Once a node has a contract it either retrieves the requested data and gets paid or it doesn't and eats the penalty.

I can get 2%/year in just a regular bank account in the states. 2%/month is about 25%/year, and while that's a lot, you have to consider that this is both highly speculative and highly useful in many industries and completely revolutionary. This isn't a traditional investment so there's no reason why it should have traditional returns.

Or consider something else crypto related for comparison: mining. The time it takes to pay of the cost of hardware is about 3-4 months. Said another way, a 10k investment will roughly double itself every 3-4 months, or 33%/month.

While I don't think staking tokens should generate more revenue than mining, 10-15%/month wouldn't be unthinkable within the realm of crypto investing. 2%/month would be a sure thing and incredibly disappointing imo.

Idk, I have a very surface level understanding of the topic, so I'd email them directly for actual answers. But my understanding is that a node operator seeks out data and inputs it in the system. If it lines with the consensus, their reputation increases, if not it decreases and penalties may apply.

Example:
>request for average temperature in NYC
>node A inputs data from source 1
>node B inputs data from source 2
>node A aligns with the consensus
>their reputation increases a little and they choose to continue to use source 1

This doesn't matter bc the LINK network is blockchain agnostic and not running directly on Eth, so eth speeds aren't a bottleneck. Also, scaling solutions are coming to eth (plasma/casper) which will solve it anyways

>2) the team

Idk on this one... besides muh pajeets, the people on mobius aren't crypto people with a track record of success. The chainlink team is small but they have years of head start and the main net will be out way sooner

>3) It's safer on stellar which is non-turing complete, but still powerful enough for virtually all smart contracts.

Too much of a brainlet to know if this will ever matter.

>4) Just buy some mobius to be safe

You can make that argument for any coin that mirrors the function of another; you have to make your bets as best you can, if you overdiversify you guarantee you will lose.

Idk bruhs, the break of the cup's handle was hard on me. I've been buying the dips but I'm worried about black swans fucking us up.

Btw this is a real post by a white male living in Boston, inb4 pajeet, I'm not fucking fudding, just help me add to my anti-fud above. Memes are fun, but REASONS are what give us iron hands.

Sergey's been obsessed with Smart Contracts and decentralization since at least 2014. There are videos of him online to prove this.

I feel pretty good about it, especially considering their PoC knocked the socks off SWIFT

Crypto isn't a zero sum game. Even if mobius is better than chainlink, there's no reason they can't coexist because they do different things and the market is pretty small. Samsung and Apple, Ford and Toyota, bitcoin and litecoin. Anyone trying to tell you that the only way to make it is with 1 coin is either a scammer or retarded. Missed the boat with bitcoin? That's okay, there's a million other new projects to invest in. Missed the boat on eth? That's okay, there's ant. And on and on.

Dude, just watch the YouTube video with that chink chick and look for David Gobaud (founder) in the comment section. He reply's to a investor who lost $20.000 worth of Mobius. Extremely unprofessional reaction.

Read the Medium.com article written by Cyrus or look at their whitepaper. You have nothing to fear. I would be surprised if they are going to deliver.

I think LINK having a POC with swift and with a testnet already out, you can see it's advantage over mobi. They have been working on the project since 2014.
At the same time, you can see the differences on the team. Sergey is trying to capture the big institutions / investors, Mobius is trying to hype on videos and reddit, their audience is "hmm everyone!"
Read the whitepapers and you will realize how CL is much more serious.

I'm also pretty convinced the ChainLink - SWIFT deal was already signed back at Sibos 2017. It would explain why Sergey doesn't rush hiring a marketing manager or any other staff. I'm not going to start with muh NDA's but a organisation like SWIFT has a responsibility for 11.000 financial institutions to maintain a high standing reputation. I think it would be logical to stall any announcement to make this look like a well thought out strategy.

They are working on a private repo.
They supposedly hired developers eoy 2017.
If you want to communicate you need to do it through the slack.
IT can't be a shitcoin when the CL team has been on this since 2014, has a test net, did a POC with swift and Sergey has attended several conferences (and going to another one in february).

And yes, we will probably not see any announcements until we get the simplified mainnet (Q1).

Not to mention SWIFT would have to be out of their fucking minds to announce that they were going to initiate a partnership with a startup that still has not launched its product.

Same goes for any financial institution.

If Steve and Sergey somehow managed to fuck everything up, the financial institutions good names would remain intact. And that is of extreme importance to them.

Friendly reminder SWIFT won't even be using Chainlink even when it does finally start using distributed ledger technology.

Here's what it says on smartcontract.com:

"We're proud to be working with SWIFT on their own SWIFT Smart Oracle."
>their own SWIFT Smart Oracle
>NOT the chainlink oracle

Never forget than banks are interested in the blockchain technology, NOT some fucking ERC20 shittoken made by some journeyman who walked away from NXT. All you autists who are constantly harping on about "the SWIFT announcement" are absolutely deluded. It's like you just ignore what it actually says on smartcontract.com itself simply because it doesn't make you feel good.

Swift building their own oracles is just the same as having a centralized oracle.

When you look at the file that talks about swift, you can see that CL is in there.

Why would they use link as the oracle middleware in the images if it's not going to be used?

If you invested in let's say a patent for a new radical design for milk and orange juice packaging that would save the industry millions of dollars. You would receive way more then 5% of you initial investment.

That wouldn't make any sense. Why would Sergey and smartcontract.com work like some kind of subcontractor to get SWIFT's private centralised oracle up and running?

If he wanted to get to the same level as Bill Gates or The Zucc he would sell an x amount of smartcontract.com's tokens to SWIFT.
