SmartContracts

[Anonymous No.9035660]

Am I right with my conclusion that SmartContracts as firm will be way bigger than just ChainLink?
Seems like they not just try to establish themselves as Oracle Network(chainlink) but also try to be the standart for smart contracts and Oracles development in general
As we know they work together with SWIFT on their own Oracle and probably with other firms as well
in this article www.medium.com/@markoblad/contract-as-code-8cf74e6a5701, the new Head of Operations of SC describes the problems of standardized Contracts and how smart contracts/blockchain can be beneficial in that regard
from everything we know about their "partners" and advicers like ari juels and the new hires it seems to me that SmartContracts tries to be the go-to plattform for everything smart contract related
which is obviously bullish for ChainLink

Yes exactly. Mark Oblad probably has zero to do with chainlink. Chainlink will run silently in the background. That's probably the most bullish thing. They were an existing company working for SWIFT and the chainlink network solved a problem they specifically identified.

Yes, that's what Sergey has been talking about all along. It's not just about look guys we have oracles and that's it, they want to be the leader that will push the smart contracts into government and finance.
ChainLink is just Sergey's way of making this revolution possible, something that governments and companies can put their trust in.

In this old article Sergey talks about being an "accelerator" for smart contract adoption.
At the superconference he talked about getting smart contracts to a "tipping point" of adoption where the floodgates are opened.
It seems highly likely that once the ChainLink network is up and running, the SmartContract.com company will diversify. Anything that drives smart contract adoption generally.

true
maybe I was a brainlet in that regard
I always thought him talking about this is more of a way to then point towards the oracle problem and his solution to it - which is chainlink
but there is also a huge demand for actual working and bugfree standardized smart contracts with real life use
which is apparently pretty hard to do

[Anonymous No.9036319]

All in on Chainlink and Blockcat. Smart contracts are the future and it is beyond obvious at this point, it is just a matter of 'how long can you wait?'

Chainlink will be like the Windows to Microsoft.

>Be Sergey at business meeting giving pitch

... so that's why if you are running a blockchain function that requires external information, you need an oracle service.

CEO: ok, and you provide such a service?

Sergey: Yes, through decentralized nodes.

CEO: ok great, and you ensure the accuracy of the off chain data?

Sergey: ...no.

CEO: wtf? So what happens if we get incorrect data?

Sergey: the node operator loses LINK tokens.

CEO: Who is the node operator? What the hell are LINK tokens? Barbara, get me Oraclize on the phone.

Oraclize: Hello?

CEO: Do you provide blockchain oracles?

Oraclize: Yes, proprietary ones specific to your needs.

CEO: Do you ensure accurate off chain data?

Oraclize: Yes.

CEO: Great, book it. Sergey, you and your LINK tokens gtfo.

>this kills the linky.

You’re absolutely right OP. If I could ask Sergey one question it would be what his long term plans for SmartContract.com are. He is going to turn it into the ultimate one stop shop for enterprise Contracts. I imagine there will be a filly user interface with templated contracts and a myriad of other options and custom solutions.

Lads, I'm a brainlet.
Can someone explain to me how Link's price is less now, despite all the good news, than back in December when there was even less news?

Is it because alt-coins have their price matched with BTC/ETH, like their the gold standards of Crypto?

But they are two separate products, so how would that be the case? how does this actually work?

Right, so crypto's with Fiat pairing are not to the mercy of Bitcoin shitting the bed?
Do you think there will ever be fiat pairing for Link?

>Market manipulation
you mean whales and p&d's?

sorry anon, I need some spoonfeeding.

For the same reason that ETH was $1400 and now it's $600. There are cycles in the market that majority of the coins follow. The only instances when coins decouple themselves from this trend is when the news are massive like mainnet release, major partnerships, etc. But even those major news sometimes just end up being a quick pump and dump in this bear market.
LINK could release the mainnet tomorrow and it could stay at the same price. But the price will catch up as the market conditions get better.

Yes smart contracts will be everywhere and used by everyone.

Fiat pairing wouldn't really fix market cycles, it's unavoidable. Every Top 10 coin has fiat pairing and they also followed the same trend more or less.

Thanks fren, you cleared it up for me.

i don't disagree that fiat pairing is part of it but it's a bit overblown. the main reason the market is coupled to btc is because it's still the biggest coin and most stable so it represents your opportunity cost. any alt you invest in has to outperform btc or you should have just bought btc.

you could introduce fiat pairings to every alt tomorrow and it wouldn't decouple them from btc by that much. to fully decouple an alt has to show that it can stand on its own tech and community

Like the other anon stated the crypto market often moves as a whole unit
Since the market is fairly new and bitcoin is somewhat of the leading horse in the raise even crypto with fiat pairing is in the mercy of bitcoin
For every token its much more important how the are performing within the market not related to their fiat value
Im not sure but chainlink probably had a similar satprice in December and was worth over a dollar now its half the price because bitcoin is half the price
Marketmanipulation
Yes whales and p&d but also because the orderbooks are so thin that it doesn't take much to move the price

It's paired to BTC. Everything goes up and down because of the BTC pairing.
