I am a long time link holder, and have been a bit silent lateley, but I believe today you deserve a thread from me. A few things:

>the reason I have been silent lately (the past few years) is that it had become impossible to provide constructive criticism regarding chainlink
>why impossible: thread got derailed either by fudders or by advocates (everything is shit or everything is great - no real discussion)
>my constructive criticism: there was a glaring issue of revenue leaking out of the network, and this was causing distrust towards the team. Basically they are getting revenue off chain and just dilute their investors in exchange.
>they had put in place numerous venues, bending backwards for their clients not to have to buy a single link on the market (pay in any tokens, pay us in usd, or your favourite shitcoin)
>every attempt to bring that up either led to gaslighting, dismissive response from advocates or over exaggeration from fudders

Now with this strategic reserve:
>CLL seems to do their mea culpa. They admit themselves they were unfairly lining their pockets at the investor's detriment this whole time
>I think this is a step in the right direction as they are trying to direct some of this cash-flow they used to embezzlement into the reserve
>Not sure what % though and they still don't provide any clarity on how much this cash-flow actually is. We still have to rely on trust for this.
>Latly, locking those tokens up is a good substitute for staking which is seem they're slowly going up on


Here, I decided to bless you with a post from an OG. I t would be good if from this advocates admitted they were wrong all this time, CLL with this réserve showed that there was an issue that needed fixing, issue that advocates were ignoring

It is a shame because they are pulling us down at shitcoin level of discussion. Literal football team fan tier screeching. Not too surprising link is now associated with scams like xrp. It is their fault. They have killed all discussion on this board

WRONG FUDSTER, BROTHER

Thank you for supporting Lil’Sergs addiction

>>60755938 (OP)
Thanks fren.

Oldfag OG here (bought 5 digits of link at $0.20 on the first day of links binance listing)
All of cult of sergey niggers owe us FudGODS praise and apologies. All of this progress is due to our hard work. The team did this because of us, you can see more and more people being increasingly receptive of fud talking points, all over Twitter there's and ever growing tide of former marines turning to fud marines shitting all over sergey, CLL and the broken tokenomics, this is because our critiques are true and real. The team has to respond to the popular consensus, they have to contain the fire before it spreads. Just like the inability to unstake, we got that fixed.
Due to our hard work, the team is forced to start addressing the tokenomics. The longer the price underperforms, the more permanent the stain on sergeys' reputation gets.
Where cultfags get it wrong is thinking we are some nefarious 3rd party actors, being paid to fud by the illuminati who are accumulating. No, we are in fact the most loyal link marines, we are the ones that truly want to protect it, and not let it destroy itself.
We are chainlinks version of judas to jesus, judas was the most important apostle, without him jesus' mission would have failed.
We want to see chainlink succeed, we want the fud to be disproven, the cultfags are damaging to chainlink, if they won't criticize it, then they don't truly care for the project, they are willing to support anything sergey / cll does, even if its detrimental to the price and thus project. As the saying goes "truth doesnt fear scrutiny."
What CLL cheerleaders and cult of sergey members do dont understand is that you're not supposed to praise sergey until after we are sitting on yachts. Praising a failing, underperforming, and unneeded token iis rewarding mediocrity. The price is ultimately what gets people excited and passionate about chainlink. Sergey needs to feel a fire under his ass in order for link to deliver the best results for all of us.

>>60755938 (OP)
In retrospect the period of token not needed will clearly be seen as a once in a lifetime accumulation zone where there were years to buy in. Many will be kicking themselves hard for falling for the fud

>>60756127
jeez this is so based

>>60755938 (OP)
The tokenomics are so shit. We still don’t have neetnodes and when/if we do, link tokens aren’t even needed. Just ask for payment in eth and stablecoins.

>>60756127

RIGHT THERE WITH YOU, BROTHER.
THE THING THAT PISSES ME OFF TO NO END IS THE FACT THAT LAGGARDS WERE ABLE TO PICK UP SIGNIFICANT STACKS. THOSE FUCKHEADS WERE MEANT TO BE PRICED OUT IN 2019 OR 2020. INSTEAD THEY WERE ABLE TO ACCUMULATE LARGER STACKS THAN OGS BECAUSE THE PRICE WAS DOGSHIT FOR SO MANY YEARS. THAT SHIT IS UNFORGIVABLE. BEING EARLY MEANT NOTHING IN THE LONG RUN

>>60756127

I trust this guy because none of the low iq fudcuck fags on here try to write gay little larps like this regularly, and he's definitely not projecting about derailing link discussion threads.
I agree we should all admit this was a scam and sell our chainlink (ticker: LINK) cryptocurrency tokens
And by all means definitely don't put sage in options

>>60756192
>I don't know how you keep up the energy.
All the fud spam is a mix of poorly paid third worlders and bots.
The pennies the third worlders got won't be worth it when they're locked up in a dog carrier in the basement of a newly built mcmansion while an unhinged linkie is dousing them in lighter fluid.

>>60756127
imagine being this delusional
they did this because vance and friends got angry about the price performance
not some fudders of twitter
but meh, definitely a good day
they had a gravy train at the expense of us and have finally done something about it

>>60756293
BROTHER YOU TALK ABOUT TORTURING FUDSTERS EVERY SINGLE DAY ON HERE
GET YOUR MENTAL HEALTH IN ORDER BEFORE THE SINGULARITY. I BEG THIS OF YOU, BROTHER

How could you possibile introduce a reserve for a token created out of thin air, with a total supply of 1,000,000,000 LINK?
Are they genuinely fucking stupid?

>>60756191
This is why its our duty to fud. No normies are allowed to buy link until its triple digits.
We didnt go through the effort of fudding reddit out like immature autists just to quit the job half way and come crawling back. Everyone who buys now is our enemy and in direct competition with us when it comes time to sell.
If you are shilling now, you simply dont understand game theory. I will be shilling as i am selling my bags at ath. We OGs have been given an immense opportunity to be VCs who bought at the ground floor, its too big of an opportunity to botch with poor execution. We have waited far too long to allow normies on the boat, they had 8 years. The fud filter is great at filtering out low iq scum and midwits, the smart ones who are /ourguys/ will pass through the filter and have / will figure it out.

Let us not forget the original fud pioneer... a true visionary... schwab anon (PBUH) it was he who was fighting hordes of euphoric shills since 2020 / 2021 he was once a lone madman spamming the board with his funny nonsensical schwab laced fud. The board was at the time euphoric with green. They thought he was just an insane autist, a deranged madman. But somehow.... he knew... like a true genius... he was ahead of the curve.. falling for schwab anons ironic fud would have had you selling the top perfectly.. no one understood him at first.. he was just a deranged but ambitious man, fudding the god protocol by himself... but he ignited a spark, and more started to join in on the fud.. slowly over the years, that small spark of fud was kindled into a raging inferno. This inferno now threatens to consume sergeys ivory tower.. finally forcing his hand into flipping the switch.. the switch that fulfills The Prophecy.

I think its great. We finally have direct statements about the LINK token, although he "couldnt comment" on the effects of the LINK token being market bought on the open market.
Now I want to see the uniswap pool dried up and we go to 3 digits

It doesn't matter... I don't even have 10,000 LINK tokens... how will I afford a new bugatti every year...

>>60756127
Sorry to interrupt your psychotic break but fudders are actually just annoying retards and have been from the start.

>>60755938 (OP)
didn't read, never selling

"Strategic reserve" is apparently the new retarded buzzword that every crypto firm wants to use regardless of what it actually means

>dumped tokens for roughly $1.5 billion according to grok
>takes notice of literal shitcoin teams doing buybacks to pump the price of their tokens
>decides to *announce* doing the same thing in order to build hype, curiously without specifying numbers, and exactly when the bullrun is nearing its late stages and altseason is around the corner

Will be interesting to see how much they allocate to this "strategic fund". I have a feeling it’ll be a laughable amount of less than $150M (10% of what they’ve sold) just to get a better exit price for their remaining tokens. Hopefully I’m wrong but after years of cynically assfucking the token price, I dont think the team deserve the benefit of the doubt

this 'strategic reserve' leaves more questions than answers.
How much of the revenue goes into it and how often?
How long does link stay in the reserve?
Does this mean proper staking is still nowhere near ready?

me watching the parade of concern trolls turn up to cry and moan

>>60755938 (OP)
>advocates
biggest gaslighting pieces of shit

kek linkies didn't get the memo

>>60756572
yes the cynical side of me sees this as a sign the market is gonna dump and the team need to generate some liquidity. It seems rushed and half-assed

>>60756127
This is the gayest thing I’ve ever read in my entire life. Have sex wagie, and then kill yourself, in that order

>>60756597
He’s right though. Glazing Sergeys cock like so many people here did all while he was systemacially dumping huge amounts of tokens to "fund" a very small company was a laughable approach, and without people like that anon it would have just continued and you would have kept getting fucked in the ass by the same man that you spend your time praising

>>60756616
Yes. There's this angle. But also it is really bad from a theoretical perspective to have your "oracle of truth" network getting so much cash flow outside of the network, even worse offchain, and having the subsidies being dumped manually without a track of how they are used.

>>60756640
All they have to do is be less opaque in what products are for "public" use on the Chainlink network, designed and produced by Chainlink Labs, custodian of the Chainlink network, compared to privately licensed enterprise packages that are designed and sold by Chainlink, the corporation that builds stuff on top of the Chainlink network.

Having 0 revenue share for the latter wouldn't be a weird decision. I'm honestly extremely surprised they mentioned putting tokens from these income streams into the reserve as well.

>>60756616
Fuddies go through catastrophic emotional collapse during dumps, and then delusional power fantasies when it pumps.
They are just completely emotionally unstable retards, whose contribution to, and effect on, Chainlink has always been zero.
We've been stuck on this ship with screeching retards for 8 years now.

>>60755938 (OP)
lmao what a bunch of fucking posers

It has been over 12 hours since the news broke and we still don't have a good fud angle. What is going on?

>>60756127
Based Post. My personal schizo theory to the Chainlink buyback is that (((they))) want to temp you to sell and unstake so you never get into the pool as their bot fills it

>>60756755
I genuinely have no idea what news you are talking about.

>>60756769
Are you retarded? It's in the OP

They still have hundreds of millions of link to dump kek. So they'll continue to sell then buy back immediately after kek wtf is this scam

>Dumps 75 Million tokens each and every quarter

BROTHER, THIS "BULLISH INITIATIVE" IS ALL SMOKE AND MIRRORS. I WASN'T HERE YESTERDAY HOWLING WITH GLEE. IT'S ANOTHER CASE OF CL LABS CARROT DANGLING
IF THEY DROPPED 100 MILLION INTO THE RESERVE RIGHT OFF THE BAT I WOULD START TO FEEL BULLISH. BUT YOU CANT SAY YOU'RE GENERATING HUNDREDS OF MILLIONS OFFCHAIN + HAVING BILLIONS IN THE WARCHEST FROM TOKEN DUMPS, THEN ONLY PUT IN 1MM INTO THE RESERVE. IT DOESNT ADD UP. IT'S A TOKEN GESTURE BY CL LABS TO APPEAR AS IF THEY HAVE THE COMMUNITY'S INTEREST IN MIND.
