Chainlink seems good on paper but if it had some sort of huge stuff coming that would pump the price wouldn't all the insiders be front running that?

>>60508882 (OP)
You're not wrong with that thought process but I've been around for years to assume this so far.

99% of the crypto industry has been speculation. You still have new alt projects coming out the woodwork. This being a 100% utility token it would be pretty bad for the project to be front ran without laying out the framework. You see multiple projects like Cardano and Polkadot, two heavy weights back in 2021/2022 considering selling their supply to keep the lights running. So far no old projects unlike outliers like XMR are pumping. Currently LINK holders are the only people who are making guaranteed profits from staking and BUILD rewards, this does not happen anywhere else.

But for the price to fundamentally appreciate, you have to assume a fair value price with it's TVS. The larger it's TVs is heading (hundreds of billions) a few things will be required to happen.

1. Staking pool is expanded
2. Token price appreciates
3. Fees are abstracted away to secure the ecosystem.

relative to it's performance in Defillama holding over 70% of all of Defi TVL, it will appreciate substantially the more Defi expands as an ecosystem itself. You should be looking at Defi as a whole to indicate the success of LINK.

fuck all stinkiiiiies
hate em all think they're dumb and pathetic and ridiculous and dumb
fuck all fuckin stiiiiiiinks

4.5% LINK APY + BUILD rewards

I've come to three concrete reasons why Chainlink is having trouble right now:
1. Bitcoin dominance: Bitcoin is dominating all of crypto right now. As it rises to take over percent marketcap of crypto, altcoins like Chainlink suffer. Bitcoin is trendings towards becoming a monopoly on crypto. Look at this chart. The rest of the market is left with scraps.
2. Supply dumpling: Chainlink Labs is constantly dumping supply of Chainlink, inflating total supply. This is bad, even if planned. Just like when the Federal Reserve pumps dollars into the US causing inflation, Chainlink Labs pumping Chainlink into supply causes each Chainlink to be worth a little less.
3. Lack of TradFi Production: It has become abundantly clear, through 8 years of Chainlink's history, that Chainlink's price tokenomics only hold if adopted by TradFi, which hasn't happened yet. TradFi is the worst industry to wait for change, because banking is one of the slowest industries in America. US banks still use fax machines, which were invented in 1964. It's clear they won't do a damn thing without regulatory clarity. There are two US bills right now, the GENIUS Act and the CLARITY Act. Guess what percent of US bills become law? 6%.

Chainlink will eventually become something I think. But not for the next 4 years, minimum. And I'm not going to wait that long to become financially stable.

>Currently LINK holders are the only people who are making guaranteed profits from staking
Why do you keep saying this? There's plenty of projects to stake with. I stake LINK and ICP (real staking btw).

>>60508904

Wrong. Chainlink needs customers to drive fundamental value. The number one customer of the chainlink network is chainlink labs- they subsidize nodes for practically all data supplied onchain. I don’t even know who else pays chainlink nodes directly but I guess that relative value is so completely dwarfed by CLL you wouldn’t even see it on a chart.

>>60508961
many programs offer staking programs, most if not all don't retain their fiat value.
>>60508976
they already have the fundamental customers, SWIFT, DTCC, JP morgan, BlackRock, Tmobile, Bank of Japan, Bank of Brazil, ANZ, etc etc etc. As of right now multiple projects are bootstrapping their developers. Look at DOT and ADA. The standard for fuddies need to be raised to actually make an argument.

>2. Supply dumpling: Chainlink Labs is constantly dumping supply of Chainlink, inflating total supply. This is bad
Link's inflation is around $1B annually (currently around 10% of circulating supply).
This is a lot lower than what XRP, SOL, Sui, ... are doing currently.
It's also a lot lower than what Bitcoin and Ethereum were doing back when they still had massive gains.
Hell, Bitcoin created the entire "crypto pump" concept on triple digit annual inflation.

>>60508976
>they subsidize nodes for practically all data supplied onchain
Bitcoin has always subsidized 98% of Bitcoin mining. Didn't stop it from creating the "crypto pump" concept out of thin air, did it?

At some point this retarded double standard needs to stop.

stay strong marine, remember this is a gambling board first. If you aren't buying what they're selling then they'll yell and spit at you. Have you ever been to France before? It's the exact same way with street performers trying to swindle you out of 50 bucks.

It used to be.
Now it seems like just a vector for paid spam.

Thats a a LOT of text. Here let me help you:

8% per year till 2030

>>60509055
those are all prospective customers

>>60508976
>they subsidize nodes for practically all data supplied onchain.

isnt it funny they were furious that competitors offered services for free when they do the same

have they ever thought about getting rid of all the ugly incels and hiring some attractive people to help sell?

>>60509055
>they already have the fundamental customers

how much do they make off those banks you listed? they are paying right? (that's what customer means)

and to clarify, if they are paying, are they sending usd to chainlink labs ltd offshore co who then pockets it?

JeetStink shills will cope about this but the reality is that they are exit liquidity. Token not needed.

>Chainlink reports fictitious, grossly exaggerated or fake partnership

Lemme stop you right there; it's almost always the partner (Swift, DTCC, JP Morgan, Visa, ...) who reports the partnership, never Chainlink.
Pic is just the most recent example.

The endless and relentless fud (likely heebs) over the past decade just adds to my conviction. Not selling til 1k per stink. Cope and seethe

The insiders can kill the pump and accummulate quiety.

No, because that would be illegal. Chainlink team is too upstanding to do that.
