Chainlink DOD plug in

Yeah, Wilson Bilkia actually started a thread on here about it. Not many people replied apart from me and a few others. He says he has a small holding in Link.

He is an ex US forces Dev who focuses on security. He posted it to the ChainLink gitter so the team should know about it.

Well considering LINK is partnered with Factom...

Supply Chains for the Department of Defense.
this shit is absolutely massive.

This just sounds too good to be true.

>There is growing anxiety about supply chain management for defense systems, which increasingly use commercial-off-the-shelf components for embedded software systems.
>The concern is that these components may contain deliberate vulnerabilities that could be exploited by an adversary at the time of his choosing.
>this issue is one of provenance, or the ability to establish the origin and traceable ownership of an asset. Blockchains offer a solution that could establish the provenance of every circuit board, processor, and software component from "cradle to cockpit."
>The card design firm could use blockchains to log every design iteration of a circuit.
>Manufacturers could log every model and serial number of every card it produced.
>Finally, distributors could log the sale of batches of circuits to system integrators, who could log the allocation of circuits to specific aircraft
assemblies, and so on.
>In this context, blockchains create a permanent records for the transfer of assets between owners, thereby establishing provenance.
>Such a system also has clear benefits for both DOD and industry beyond a system's production phase.
>Many weapon systems are designed with service lives of 30 years or more.
>However, the computing technologies these systems use are rarely produced for more than a decade. As a result, replacing obsolete parts becomes more difficult with time.
>Additionally, 30 federal law prevents DOD from using any component whose provenance cannot be established; any discontinuity in ownership renders some parts unusable even though they are functional and in high demand.
>In addition to helping DOD to support legacy systems, resellers would have an economic incentive to track specifically identified COTS components in a blockchain to maintain their provenance, which in turn increases their value.

I work with the DoD as a contractor and the hoops you have to jump through to make a single change technologically is impressive. There is absolutely no way on Earth the DoD is even considering using an unproven technology built on top of an unproven technology anywhere in their network.

Border security. Check out factom, they have been partnered with smartcontracts for years

but they actually do want to replace their old shitty system, since 2014 they are searching for a better way because the current one is very very inefficient.

HOLY SHYT!!! this made my weekend.

hodling until 2020!!! lets moon boys!!!

which department did Factom partnered with?

thats not how you use green text fucking retard,
go back to reddi.t

More proof that the vast majority of these supply chain shit coins are dead in the water. Link solves their problem as a subset of the problems it solves

If if I make a pull request will you die?

triggered much?

true dat

the hardest thing about investing in LINK is knowing too much. this waiting game sucks. that's the price to pay for being too early

It will be very stinky

you're a deluded guy

That's why I've been telling you to sell, pajeet. You don't need this stress in your life. You don't even want to be rich, if you're honest with yourself. This isn't going to end well for you.

Old news, Riddle user told us last year that SWIFT is out and there is bigger player coming

Brainlet here, what is the significance of this?

BANE?

This isn’t actually for the DoD...it just says DoD standards bla bla bla

Holding is so hard only because everything is so red. It creates depression. When we get back to a point of optimism seeing a bit of gain every day you wake up will make you feel better about waiting.

>link
>partnerships
nice larp

red = stop green = go. When it's red, you stop or hold. You lose when you sell at a loss. Because what goes down is sure to go up again. ala bitcoin.

Neat, but why would this affect token price? Wouldn't the DoD track this stuff with their own Chainlink nodes and thus not need to worry about penalties or payments?
Come to think of it, why can't node penalties and payments just be handled through a clause in the smart contract that pays or debits node operator's bank accounts?

What do you think a node would pool this data for? People who want to sell the items on it to the government. They're creating a list every DOD+ contractor is going to want to pay to see. Very high value API data. Very expensive items being bought and sold via smart contract using LINK as collateral. I think that affects its value.

Swift is out ... LMAO .. sure they are ..

user this is great shit. Thanks much for posting this. Don’t travel in DOD circles and there is no way I would have run across this if you not for you posting on biz.

Microsoft, AXA, SWIFT, SalesForce, IC3, the list goes on.

I plan to HODL either way. Sometimes I feel like a genius who needs to wait a bit more; and other times, I wonder if I fell for the spell meme megic has put us under.

So the spooks in the U.S. will be using LINK? Mother of God. This is massive use.

LOLOL LINK is so fucking undervalued. Increasing my insurance stack at these prices.

even if link doesnt moon or be succesful.I went balls deep and lost. I had a story to tell what do you have no-linkers you have no balls you have no vision we will make it even if we dont with chainlink

If all this is true, why isn't smart money stacking up on LINK?

Because the smart money already stacked up on link.

I just used google, DOD/Department of Defense + "Blockchain"/"Smart Contract" + "pdf"

>The shart money
Ftfy pajeet

Fyi, this doesn't mean much. This is one major's school research paper. In these officer advanced schools, students come up with all types of research topics, mostly things that they already have an interest in. This is basically the equivalent of a research paper for a master's degree course. Not fud, just realistic.

My flavorite aspect of ChainLink threads are how many subject matter experts show up to tell me everything is a lie. I don't even need to read reports or form my own opinions. Saving money, saving time, making a better life for myself. Thanks.

are you me?

K.

Don't get me wrong, I literally have no idea if there would ever be DoD interest in Chainlink or smart contracts in general. There may be. I'm just trying to point out that paper is nothing to blow your load over.

the ONLY voice of reason in this thread goes ignored. good job guys, totally not a cult, etc

I understand why LINK isn't marketed. They're on the radar of some of the world's most promising sectors across a number of verticals. We weren't supposed to be apart of this opportunity, but we got lucky once again.

if it wasn't supposed to be open to the public it wouldn't be listed on Binance

I think most understand what it means but they just let the noisy minority get carried away.

It is a useful tool for future applications, it just doesn't mean any partnerships are lined up.

if it was supposed to be open to the public it's ICO wouldn't over in 10 minutes.

so tell me, why's it on Binance?

Digibyte 2.0

No one can stop binance from listing link.

Binance bought a whale load and listed the coin on their own. Team had no imput

This. I have no idea. I've asked this question many times. Usually the response is that sergey has 650m link to give out to big players and they're not going to waste time going to binance. Although if they New about he tech and their company possibly adopting I would think they'd want to buy up their own stash but who knows. Nobody has ever mentioned link by name and there's no such thing as I've seen here posted before about NDA's because that just doesn't make sense for an open source project. This entire project is eerie.

>10020656
Away from all moon opinions and FUD accusations, literally equanimous about the future BUT who the fuck is stupid enough to believe "duh we got in by accident, this was never suppose a happen"? It is completely a stand-out of stupidity on a board famously created out of low intelligence population groups.

Kek

This is fucking bullshit "we don't deserve this project" lmfao

Same thoughts here; just months after confirmation of foreign jnfi,tration of reddit/electoral process/intel group out of maryland responsible for voter data security, THIS fucking project still has steam and is captain of the rumor mills here and NOWHERE ELSE. When I even bother to think about this bullshit, I feel like it's some sort of front for gathering alt-right supporter info/non-employable "members" that feel smarter than everyone or that they have a"destiny" and were clever enough to find Link etc etc. like someone is recruiting or at least profiling the dregs of neet society since they are so easily led. Eh, I gotta get a hobby.

Even if the larps are all wrong, LINK is definitely a weird project. Despite massive players and crypto gods being undeniably aware (Antonopoulos, Gonser, Vitalik, Nick Johnson, Fucking Klaus Schwab etc) no one working on any products that could use it seem to even realise it exists! Like, that fucking airline insurance app that basically said "why the fuck would we need that"? When they were asked about it.
It would be one thing to asses it and dismiss it, but they seem to not even know.

YES ITS AN UNRELATED GITHUB OF A 'SECURED' NODE SETUP THAT CLAIMS TO MEET SOME BULLSHIT DOD ISO SPEC.UTTERLY IRRELEVENT SHIT AND I WOULD NOT TRUST IT. AT ALL.

this. dont bother with this fake DOD shit, its nothing. shoo shoo.

Sergey has documented Russian connections. It would make sense if some of the same astroturfing groups used for the Jow Forums trump campaign were contracted to shill LINK here.

Right. And the fervor that Link holders have. They were able to target the most desparate and seemingly unskilled/unemployable. It feels very sky novel, right? And their weird logic with "this HAS to work" "you are trying to steal my link!" "This FUD is professional level - we must have got imto this via loophole. We're not supposed to have link!" It's like how children think.

That was not an AXA employee it was a random pajeet...someone screenshoted his other posts yesterday

*sorry i meant spy novel, not sky novel.

Oh I knew it was some random idiot as soon as they claimed to speak for AXA lol. But that's the typical response from everyone. The oracle problem gets handwaved by Dan Larimer too, for example.
What's sky novel?

Dan Larimer is dumber than most of the idiots here

Jow Forums is a mix of low IQ and high IQ population groups though. basically most people here are deviated from the norm of society. very little in the middle "normal" people. that's why genius ideas tend to arise as well as dumb as shit ones, and you have to figure out for yourself which is which

>no one working on any products

this is true

The Department of Defense (DoD) has taken notice, even if it hasn’t been on the forefront of blockchain acceptance. The National Defense Authorization Act for fiscal 2018, signed Tuesday by President Trump, includes a provision ordering DoD to conduct a comprehensive study of blockchain, particularly with regard to cybersecurity. Some DoD components, meanwhile, have been exploring blockchain on their own as a way, for example, to deliver secure messaging to deployed troops and for protecting the digital 3D printing supply chain for ships at sea or units in the field.

I make 80k a year though. And I don't believe the larpers and will wait and see but the most intriguing thing about CL is that there's always big money floating around in the background wherever they are. It leaves it open to speculation and people get excited because they don't use this to try to claim partnerships in a market where cryptos tweet for a whole week because they know a janitor who sniffed a GS intern's chair.
It isn't certain, but to me it makes more sense that CL is working towards an actual product and has involvement with these groups at this point rather than it being just a scam like the others. If it was a scam, it would be a terribly convoluted and mind-fucky scam and they would have bailed out long ago. If it was a failed project or it didn't have a high likelihood of working, you wouldn't have people like Tom Gonser or Ari Juelz taking personal interests in it.

>besides: Microsoft, SAP, sage, Salesforce, DocuSign, Fidelity Labs, Symbiont/Vanguard, twilio, IBM, Intel and others.
Yes yes see this is what I'm talking about. The entire project has substance but sometimes I think I'm going crazy because I look around and nobody else gives a shit. Nobody else is buying. I know sergey has 650m to give away but wouldn't you want your own stash too if your company was working on implementing this technology? It seems eerie to say the least. How can something so big so revolutionary fly under the radar so proficiently...this is the only place it still has steem and people talk about it like the other user said. It seems so obvious too but obviously it's not and I often think I could be totally off the mark and one day I'll sweep this under the rug as one of the worst financial decisions of my life.

Or maybe a special Jow Forums tailored scam for high IQ deluded fags

its too complicated for the average normie, you have to think around 2 corners to truly understand the project and why it is needed for smart contracts to work, so only high IQ individuals and lucky bastards get involved.

But Jow Forums's support or dismissal, selling or buying has nothing to do with why the project is good. This is why the golden rule is to DYOR, because being immune to shilling is as important as being immune to fud.

Come the fuck on. I know I'm being harsh and trying to be funny when I crap on the board here, but again, come the fuck on. It is NOT that hard and you know it. I'm staying away from link itself and it's worth/non-worth for a reason. Just think about WHO it has been popular with and for once be honest with yourself. Does this really seem like it might be something else?

It's/its sorry

this scares me, until i look at the facts.

Klaus Schwab was not tricked by Sergey. Ari Jules was not tricked by Sergey. Marc Benniof was not tricked by Sergey.

we. t

take your "the cia is trying to recruit me" mental illness back to /x/ you fucking kook. no one is trying to weaponize you with a fortune.

You are a fucking lying cunt. You have 0 proof of that.

There’s no reason for an enterprise to take a risk on holding link until it goes live and they can start to buy data feeds. It’s easy for a person to take the risk: they just go to binance and buy it and hold. But an enterprise would require the convincing of multiple people and if there’s no quantifiable short term benefit, there’s literally no reason for an enterprise to hold an unproven token. When mainnet goes live and data starts getting used in contracts, the price singularity will soon follow.

LARPER ALERT. Reminder than Chainlink has no confirmed partnerships despite that it would be in their best interest to disclose them, especially since they're an open source and transparent project
