Honestly with the chainlink reserve in play I'm less worried about them IPOing. Mass adoption of link = more money in the reserve = higher link price. This is on top of the node network gains from staking, if not just half of the intended revenue. Even so, if CLL itself becomes big, that just means more for the reserve than the nodes, but the nodes benefit too, and CLL gets to remain relevant once staking goes full decentralized
