There's a lot of crypto projects out there. A lot of start ups in general. Every one of them has a community behind it, absolutely convinced that their investment is the one that's going to change everything and make them rich. Their arguments are no less convincing, their data is no less false, their theories are no less valid, their assumptions are no more ridiculous.
What are the actual chances that you've picked the right one? Seriously. YOU'RE going to be a millionaire? Some fucking neet? Because you saw something that no intelligent investors, banks, programmers, futurists etc saw coming? In this future you've imagined for yourself, where you're a multi-millionaire, you realize that Sergey and everyone on the team would have to be richer than the richest men on the world right now?
I think at a certain point, you just have to admit to yourself that this is yet another doomed to fail start up by yet another yuppie 'entrepeneur', that already has half a dozen failed start ups to his name. Just check his Linkedin, 'CEO of company that WAS...'. Perfectly sums up Sergey. CEO of was. Get back to work anons, you'll need that overtime to invest in stocks. You might retire by 55 if you're lucky, and keep working hard, and stop trying to rely on shortcuts in life. Your get rich quick schemes are just like any other, and they're not going to help you.
Jow Forums was always better at being ahead of the curve on the next big thing. They predicted bitcoin years in advance, and ETH as soon as it was announced. They also don't care about LINK and think it will be worthless. It's just retards on Jow Forums that hype it.
Really makes you think.

This is a real Plebbit mindset. 'Pure' cryptocurrencies are dead. Many projects do not need blockchain. The important thing is about the decoupling of the blockchain tech and accommodation with legacy actors and systems. This is where the real value add is, not in idealistic "let's overthrow the bankers" bs.

Only a fraction of the top 100 are pure currencies. Most of them fill a specific purpose for particular industries, but every one has a community convinced that it will revolutionize whatever it is they're doing.
In simpler words, for the same reasons you reject the hype of other coins, we can reject the hype of yours.

You're not getting my bags. Don't you think it's pointless to spread this FUD, when the project hasn't even started (mainet not being out). Every year some company makes a fortune, with it's investers cashing in with it. If you are content with wagecucking for the rest for of your life, so be it. Not doing that shit bro. You can keep your mindset, but just remember that it will never make you rich (or dependent on the system is a better way to describe it).

Sure, all LINK FUD is good and useful. But this thread has no specifics, just truisms and generalities.
The main argument for LINK is that in opening smart contracts through a secure and decentralised oracle you render the business case of many of these projects moot overnight.
Andrew Richardson
Its pointless to try and extrapolate data from a project by reading unnecessary and baseless hype on an image board. You must realize at one point all the hype sounds the same and attempting to compare a projects hype to another projects hype is a pointless and fruitless task.
We are here for moon missions. The majority of anons here don't have a couple million lying around they can throw at safe stocks/bonds and make yearly dividends off of. We are here for the moonshots to hopefully get us to that point.
This is why you must realize the majority of people here love LINK because it is that moonshot. It is that ticket. If it went to 0 sats tomorrow most of us would continue on with our lives and look at it as "what could have been". There is no other project on the scope of what Chainlink is trying to produce. No other project looking to connect Off chain data. We all realize that if Chainlink can accomplish what is looking to accomplish, then it will be miles ahead of any other project in this space. Its is the final piece to the puzzle, the middleware that could allow smart contracts to exist outside of tokens.
You don't have to tell us its a gamble. We already know that. None of us know if Chainlink will be the one to finally solve this massive issue, but if it is the one then we are in for one hell of a ride. And thats why we invest in it.

I don't really get what you're saying? Chainlink has been debated ad infitium on this board in great detail and depth. FUD is welcomed and encouraged but this thread is adding nothing to that debate - it's simply stating something that is self-evident.
How has the debate about LINK been filled with generalities? So much of the research has focused on trawling through corporate reports and documents, on the background of each team member and advisor. Of course, the project could fail but with the available information we have, it's a worthwhile bet that would led to monumental gains.
