Real talk, why the hell is the price of LINK so shit? Can we have an actual discussion for once?

>It's the team dumping tokens!!
Yeah? Tons of other projects inflate harder than LINK and still pump (XRP, SOL, etc).

>Token not needed!!
Cool, neither are 99% of coins, including literal dog memes.

>It's whales suppressing price to accumulate!!
No. Whales bought BTC and ETH while they were going up, not crabbing for 5 years.

> They're doing it to stop /biz/ from making it!!
Then how did all those OGs from /g/ and early /biz/ become BTC and ETH whales?

Stop coping. What’s the real reason?

when link hit 20 the other week they:
>caused an 8.8 earthquake in the pacific
>sent nuke subs to russian waters
>got china to ban all cypto and mining
>exposed fake jobs data
all to further the 'hiding strat' of link
can anyone else think of any black swans they released the other week to suppress link?

Real answer: it outperformed the maket at first and then it underperformed the market because it was coming off from a high point. Last couple years its performance was average. That's it. That's the reason. Anytime someone complaind about Chainlink price it's always cherrypicking its high point and/or comparing it with other coin that has pumped a lot instead of comparing it to the median altcoin performance.

Because it’s fairly complicated, which means the tok3n will be better understood by the likes of erc3643 association, dtcc, swift, Mastercard, etc etc than people who understand that XRP is the bank coin and SOL is for smart city people. I don’t think the “technocrats” would necessarily buy up the token in large swathes as a personal investment either until there is clear RWA adoption and systemic flows from protocol use on the horizon. Afterall, if they buy it all up, the liquidity retail has is comparatively thin and there is a small risk CLL won’t deliver the complete package so who would they sell it back to?

>>Token not needed!!

yeah the problem is you sold your coin as a utility coin that would accrue value based on usage
and it just isn't happening nor will it, and the market has realized that

>Cool, neither are 99% of coins including literal dog memes.

bro the entire space isn't "needed"
every single day the banking world functions without buying altcoins from an obese slav

with memecoins, you're comparing apples and oranges as they don't sell their coin on utility nor claim to be operating an actual business
memes rely on more intangible factors such as community to move their price
the good ones are all fully diluted as well so holders don't have to deal with funding a massive workforce like they do with link

memecoins are a much more honest investment and much less toxic for investors. whereas anyone who even asks the chainlink team for an update is berated
>>It's the team dumping tokens!!
>Yeah? Tons of other projects inflate harder than LINK and still pump (XRP, SOL, etc).

those coins have buying pressure that absorbs the team sells while link does not
no amount of reasoning on your end can change the laws of supply and demand

>It's whales suppressing price to accumulate!!

i think at this point only the biggest retards in the cult believe this
it was funny tho when dudes here had all of their graphs supporting this conspiracy

this kind of outrageous gaslighting is what turned off even more potential investors....
looking back at a 5 year window is a very common investing benchmark and not considered cherrypicking to anyone who's not stuck in a cult

at this point, the cult is basically relying on a 2 year window where link outperformed
this happened 6-7 years ago

Information asymmetry. 99% of the space has absolutely no idea what the infrastructure being built is or what it is for. Do you need more proof than hundreds of millions of dollars in liquidations from faulty oracles? Do you need more shitcoins and blatant VC scams to prove people don't know what they are doing? Retail has no fucking idea about anything other than "number go up". Most institutional money realizes what this is leading to but has a vested interest in milking the retardation of the public while quietly building.

ETH was the first widely adopted smart contract platform. It had a narrative of being the world computer defi base layer that was very easy to sell. It was also included in many indexes and a core asset in institutional reports. Basically it was in the perfect place at the right time and caused cascading effects of FOMO. Link on the other hand is more like hidden infrastructure that enables DeFi apps. On top of this it doesn't the liquidity in ETFs and derivatives for unwinding very large positions easily. Institutions that need LINK for its utility prefer slow quiet accumulation that does not spike price.
>>60749012
It's an entire suite of services including but not limited to price feeds, data feeds, verifiable randomness, automation, verifiable computation, cross chain interoperability, automated compliance, and more. It also serves as key abstraction layer for developers so that they can write code once and deploy anywhere instead of being siloed to one chain.

You're correct the other services have not matured to the same level as price feeds, however the statement that it's "little more than a price feed" is inaccurate. The infrastructure is built first to enable applications to use the services as needed.

Basically the theory is that as the stack becomes critical infrastructure with staking and fees enforced it will create a massive liquidity crunch causing a sudden repricing event, we can see this starting to emerge with institutional capital moving trillions into the RWA and stablecoin sectors.

Absolute best case would be $100, more likely just barely ATH or approaching previous ATH for this year. The next 2 years are where institutional PvP starts becoming a real factor squeezing the remaining liquidity.

PUTTING THIS IN ALL CAPS AS IT IS THE ONLY FACTUAL ANSWER AND PEOPLE SHOULD PAY ATTENTION, I AM NOT CAPSLOCK ANON.

THE REASON THE PRICE IS SHIT IS BECAUSE THE MARKET IS STILL PANTS ON HEAD RETARDED FULL ON CLOWN MARKET. IT'S THE SAME REASON COMPLETELY USELESS DO-NOTHING COINS ARE AT MULTI BILLION MARKET CAPS AND LITERALLY HUNDREDS OF ACTUAL SCAMS AND MORE DO-NOTHING COINS ARE AT MULTI HUNDRED MILLION DOLLAR MCAPS.

FEEL FREE TO TREAT THE MARKET AS A CASINO, THAT'S WHAT IT IS RIGHT NOW. HOWEVER, IF & WHEN THE MARKET MATURES, YOU BETTER HOPE TO GOD YOU ARE HOLDING LINK, ETH, OR BTC AND NOTHING ELSE. GOOD LUCK, MARINES.

yeah it doesn't make sense to me
it could just be the fact that there isn't a chainlink blockchain and people don't see it being used
it could be that chainlink doesn't engage scamming "KOLs" to shill
it could be that chainlink is working with market makers to suppress the price so it doesn't look hyped and volatile to institutional clients
it could be that chainlink is dead of reddit where 100-120 iqs reside. this type is important in shilling as they do so with genuine enthusiasm. biz's war on reddit to suppress the price was a major mistake in retrospect
it could be that chainlink is just to difficult to grasp and does too many things. very few ethereum investor know what a smart contract is for example and fewer could accurately explain why they are important
it could be that the closed staking (a rewards program for 2017-2020 buyers and which suppresses discontent from this era of buyers) is having a significant effect on new buyers who want to stake their coins
but yeah it doesn't make sense to me given all their bullish annoucements

Locked LINK supply crosses critical mass (staking, CCIP fees, vaults)
Enterprises and RWAs start moving serious volume via CCIP
Retail finally grasps that LINK isn’t a “DeFi coin” but a cross-chain data and compute layer
Liquidity dries up
Utility demand becomes irreversible
Every bag not held becomes a liability for funds managing RWA or cross-chain positions
At this point the flywheel effects create massive institutional and retail FOMO exploding the price upward

do effort posts
everyone else is too old, demoralized or tired
>>60749321
but that's the thing right, chainlink labs is happy
they get paid millions for just deploying feeds (they make a lot of money here), functions etc to a new chain, just like etherscan gets paid millions to deploy
they then also have 300m LINK to dump
a lower price also keeps employees on board as they get paid partially in link
the problem is just for retail investors

You're not going to like this but the main reason is that Sergay Betray. Whenever a fuddie brings up the link supply dumps, people here like to post that pic that shows the price went up most during periods where Sergey was dumping the most tokens. The premise being that Sergey's dumping is of no consequence to the token price, especially when compared to other coins.

That's the wrong way to look at it. Rather than saying
>the price went up despite Sergey's increasing dumps
You should be saying
>Sergey increased his dumps as the price rose higher

This is a meaningful distinction that you must wrap your head around to understand the price action. Chainlink Labs' goal is to get the most amount of dollars from their token sales. Whether the reason for that is because they only care about the money and they don't actually themselves believe in the Chainlink vision, or because they want as much funds as possible to be able to continue to develop the network into its final form is a seperate question.

In the same way that Link had a macro bullrun in 2021 and Sergey increased his macro dumping, everytime Link has a micro bullrun Sergey increases his micro dumping.

Remember when Link topped out at $53 everyone was surprised that it was lagging behind all the other coins? The reason is that Sergey was increasing his dumps.

I DONT CARE ABOUT XRP, GIVE XRP NO THOUGHT AT ALL, BUT HERE'S A FUNNY STORY
IT WAS JANUARY 2018 AND I GET A CALL FROM MY LATE-70S UNCLE WHO LIVES IN ANOTHER COUNTRY. HE SAYS HE HAS SOME INVESTMENT ADVISOR AT HIS HOUSE TALKING ABOUT CRYPTOCURRENCY. HE WANTED TO KNOW WHAT I THOUGHT ABOUT XRP BECAUSE THAT IS THE COIN THAT THIS FINANCIAL ADVISOR IS HOCKING.
'XRP IS ONLY A DOLLAR FIFTY A SHARE AND BITCOIN IS 12000. ITS POSSIBLE XRP CAN REACH 12000 JUST LIKE BITCOIN". HE DID INDEED CALL THEM SHARES.
NEVER UNDERESTIMATE THE STUPIDITY OF THESE BOOMERS. THEY HAVE NO UNDERSTANDING OF MARKET CAP, SUPPLY, NONE OF IT. BUT UNLIKE GEN Z WITH THEIR DOGGY COINS, BOOMERS HAVE DISPOSABLE MONEY TO SPEND. A LOT OF IT. AND FOR SOME REASON, XRP LOOKS "CHEAP" TO THEM BECAUSE ITS ONLY 3 BUCKS A SHARE...

SERGEY PLAYS A ROLE FOR THIS LACK OF DEMAND, CL LABS HAS BEEN UNABLE TO REALLY HONE IN A MARKETING PITCH. MAYBE THAT'S WHY ITS BEEN NEARLY A DECADE WITHOUT ANY INSTITUTIONAL ADOPTION. FOR WHATEVER REASON, THEY HAVEN'T BEEN ABLE TO SUCCINCTLY AND CLEARLY EXPLAIN THE BENEFITS OF THEIR TECHNOLOGY.

it's totally the hr roasties and big macs then
but seriously, it has to rise on meme/cult hype or utility.
it arguably already had it's cult pump years back, so now we have to what for the utility pump.
you either believe they are building the google of blockchain, slowly but surely or you believe fatman is a russian scammer
if the former, then it's basically a tech stock now and hopefully will be the next google and amazon, but still will be based on revenue, which will have to be captured, so either the news drip is good or bad, either you know what you hold or don't

All of crypto is *still* deep in speculation mode. For an asset to pump purely on speculation, it needs hype. LINK OGs took great pleasure in fudding their own coin, nudging the LINK narrative in an unfavorable direction, even on a meta-level (i.e. ensuring that normies didn't want to be associated with the project because of its association with a bunch of autistic frogs). Added to this, the breadth of the crypto sphere is *vast*, making it extremely unlikely that the uninitiated takes the time to actually understand what LINK is trying (and managing) to do. There was a time in 2020 when LINK had hype because defi blew up and everyone knew it was because of LINK. But after the bear, defi no longer has the hype, and RWA hasn't had its defi moment yet. But when it does, all powered by LINK, the hype will return. And if -- IF -- v1.0 drops at the same time? Hype *plus* fundamentals *plus* white-paper tokenomics? That's a recipe for the very god candle we've all been dreaming about.

>this kind of outrageous gaslighting is what turned off even more potential investors....
In a thread a while back, the argument to buy link was "it's too late to buy link". It was "only for the earliest buyers and it already mooned, it's over." That was the selling point from an actual linky. The linky typed that out and expected people to buy, with the same assblasted attitude of "why is it not pumping??". I'm convinced the only people still holding link are actual retards who hate money.

Effort post coming through.

First thing to consider is that the price isn't that bad, it's performing better than 99.9% of cryptos as old as it is and is sitting comfortably in the top 20, often nearing the top 10.
It has done a 100x since ICO, has massively overperformed the market from 2018 to 2020, had a pretty good run during the 2024 mini bull, and is performing as badly as the rest of the market since then.

The only period in which LINK underperformed was late 2020 and 2021, and the reason was that it was coming down from the massive pump it had.

Now, a few outliers have overperformed LINK when you focus on the past 4 years or so. What comes to mind is BTC, SOL, DOGE and XRP.
The reason is these coins had an enormous amount of buying pressure from retail :
BTC because the easy to understand "reserve of value" meme kept gaining more and more media attention and popularity
XRP because it has been relentlessly shilled by a lot of big crypto influencers
DOGE because it was shilled by Musk and everyone thought it would be funny to go along with it, creating a huge bubble as well as birthing the memecoin market
SOL, because you need to buy SOL to play in the shitcoins casino that gained popularity in the part couple years.

Right now, LINK doesn't have the kind of media attention or systemic buying pressure comparable to those. Sure Sergey publicly talked to Trump, but without dozen of influencers to hype this fact to their audience, it's pretty much as if it didn't happen.
So as long as LINK doesn't have a relentless shill industry or an actual massive buying pressure, there's no reason to think it will massively outperform its top 20 competitors.
In the meantime, it will still keep growing at the same rate as the cryptos market, and will still massively outperform 99.99999% of alts (which isn't saying much). And yes, it will still dump with the rest of the market whenever BTC sneeze.

1. Most of the market comprises of scamming and fraud. Why would projects that brings revolutionary change pump overnight?

2. Token supply keeps increasing despite a growing market cap. This ends when all tokens have been sold by CLL at the end of their release cycle.

3. BNB, SOL, ETH, AVAX, TRX are able to violently pump due to being able to mint your own tokens on their network, attracting retail towards shitcoins. If LINK were developed on their own blockchain and followed that same map you would see the LINK token reach hundreds of dollars, except it's not and it actually provides services that businesses are looking to adopt just like AI in order to save money.

chinese scam coins are able to pump out of the blue and you're asking yourself why a project that is actually bringing revolutionary change isn't pumping overnight?

good post. Look what systemic buying pressure has done for TRX (third worlders need TRX to use USDT which is continuing to grow), the most beautiful chart in crypto

Didn’t they lay off a bunch of people during the last bear market? They’ll probably downsize again this cycle hopefully. They also really need to take Schmidt’s advice and drop this remote work nonsense.

>>60749396
Sirgay was upfront about the token supply increase. If he was trying to manipulate price through hype, he wouldn’t have been so open about leaving out any pump related tactics.

It’s wild how tokens like HYPE and TRX get to pump off "utility" but LINK doesn’t.This market is so irrational, it’s infuriating.

What if the fuddies and bagholders actually teamed up to shill LINK? The combined autism alone could send us to Valhalla.

XRP has just been one of the top performers this cycle, that’s it. If you held it, congrats, well deserved.

>>60750538
Here’s what bugs me, if LINK really is going to play a major role with SWIFT and serve as the bridge between off-chain and on-chain, then why aren’t institutions buying up all the LINK already?

>>60750557
On point #3, HYPE is out there, and as far as I know, it is a utility token.

>>60750559
It’s been 7 years since I first bought LINK. Trust me, I know the pain.

the thing i'll say is you saying 7y outperformed is a weasel cop out
something a snake would do

another great example of why so many people cheer on you guys getting absolutely throttled by this market

such an arrogant group of cunts makes it so much sweeter

exactly! such an odd phenomenon with chainlink that i haven't seen in any other investment group

they virtue signal against each other to see who can get shit on more


there's a reason they call them...

the link price reflects the market expectation that they will deliver something of value. it's been 8 years, so extrapolating from that data point one comes to the conclusion that they will just take all the money from selling tokens and continue to deliver fuck all

Corporations can't invest in crypto the way natural persons can, which is why grayscale exists and had its own private Chainlink bubble into 3 digits territory.
You can bet that insiders are loading up, case in point with the Trump family last December.
