In this thread we discuss Chainlink and post out price predictions for Chainlink in the next bubble. The only rule is that you can't let price predictions in this thread influence your opinion on the future price of the LINK token. This is meant to be your personal opinion. I hope to get 100 predictions from different people. If we get enough interest in this thread I may aggregate the data.

Supposing link takes the #10 spot on coinmarket cap by the next bubble , and supposing the market cap of all crypto goes to about 2 trillion, the link market cap will be about 20 billion. That's a 130x from now so about
65$
Probably this will happen by 2021 or so. Given the lengths of the previous market cycles. But who knows maybe we'll take the number 2 spot, this would put us at like 500 billion market cap. Or more than
1000$
Luis Green
Checked. Yes it’s called meme magic
Jack Carter
I don't know if it takes one bubble or two bubbles, but it will max out at around $30. So I'd say 40k LINK to make it.
Checked.
Nicholas Turner
Nice fud. The next bubble will be 20 trillion mcap
That's not silly at all. Chainlink could hit $1200. Dot com companies hit golds market cap in december 1999, bitcoin/crypto is often compared to gold and crypto will likely be more revolutionary than dotcom technology, and since history "rhymes" i think crypto will hit golds market cap at 8 trillion.
Gun to the head prediction with available info now: 1-10$ EOY depending on market. IF we see major adoption and a killer app using chainlink oracles or a major service using chainlink we're off to the races, probably new crypto boom and 50$ or 10 times that, who knows at that point. Chances of that happening in the next 2 years? 25%¿

Why should I invest in a technology with no product, no mainnet, not even a proof of concept? If it were super undervalued like iExec I would understand but even then, why not just invest in an actual product that's undervalued, such as REQ?
Robert Taylor
done.
Jacob Long
I’m hoping to just get solid rewards from running a node for a few years, then $100+ I’ll have to dump it
Andrew Price
stay on the sidelines and buy with redditors once it's $50 a pop thinking you're an investing genius you cuck
Ethan Ward
I did some calculations in a previous thread, others have done them aswell. Based on the marketcaps of coins in top 15 at the previous bullrun. You end up with numbers in the range of 10$ to 1000$.
I have no doubt Chainlink is a "top 15", and i furthermore believe that the next bullrun will be greater than the last. so if chainlinks real life adoption coincide with the next bullrun, i would say chainlink can easily go for 3 digit usd.
Matthew Bennett
Screencap this, LINK will never pass $1 in price again. Ever. Put this in the collage, you know it's true.
>LINK is designed to be a cheap, cup of coffee automated platform
Lincoln Howard
Not an argument.
Robert Foster
the fact that you are even considering such trash bags like req or rlc makes you unworthy of any arguments, seriously
Anthony Jackson
>no proof of concept wrong
Jonathan Cruz
LINK is a top 5 coin by conservative estimates. No way this real world protocol required for the whole market to function should be below shit like IOTA. It could be $50 even without market recovery.
Logan Perez
>If it were super undervalued like iExec iExec doesn't even need a separate currency to function it's such a piece of fucking shit
Triple digits minimum but it will go higher after initial speculation into 1200usd region. Pajeets have just started infecting the telegram but are being pushed aside with things they don't understand.
Christian Turner
EO2019: $0.90 EO2020: $3 EO2021: $6 Tippy top of the next crypto bubble: $22

Why are the so many street shitting pajeets here yet so few on Chainlink's Telegram? I'm not keeping up with National Geographic.
Leo Allen
YOU'RE FUCKING WRONG, YOU'RE LITERALLY GOING TO BE A MULTIMILLIONAIRE
Yeah - if chainlink reaches the same mcap as XRP now it would be $50, if it reached the mcap of ETH at peak bull it would be $300 So my prediction is $50-300 and I have enough link to make it if it hits $50.
Your prediction is false. I’d have 87,000,000 USD and obviously that isn’t happening
Jaxon Kelly
I agree. But what people don’t anticipate mostly are multiple token splits to accomplish this.
Will be $1 but there will also be a 1:1000 token split prior.
Zachary Ortiz
reminder that bitconnect reached rank 26 and 2.7bn market cap at one time.

In theory you would have 87 million USD, but you won't, even if LINK hits that 877$.
You can't hold all your linkies to that, you (and everyone else here) will begin selling something starting from 2$, and when LINK is 25$, most of current holders have sold 95% of their tokens. This happened with Bitcoin, it happened with NEO, ETH etc.
Most of those who will have link when it is 877$, have bought it for 100-500$ each, and are holding a few, or maybe 10-30 LINK.
Josiah Hughes
bog here, I'll dump it all, you have 72 hours before shutdown
Gabriel Allen
The thing with LINK is that you can stake it either by running a node yourself or putting it into a pool(paying a fee). If the ROI is at least 8%(gonna be a lot bigger earlier) a year, then I doubt anyone will start selling a lot. As long as the staking returns are good and smartcontracts are getting adopted, then there's no point to sell your LINKs unless you need the money for a car/house whatever. You can just ride out the passive income and then when the ROI gets small(which means LINKs price will probably be very high), then you can start thinking about selling and putting into some other stock funds with better ROI.
At the moment LINK seems speculative, but when mainnet is up and smartcontracts are saving money, then it will be seen as a secure investment, not just some "crypto". It will be a piece of the smartcontract economy.
The reason BTC, ETH etc where sold was because you couldn't get any passive income from it. You couldn't stake or anything. For mining you don't need to put anything for collateral. Chainlink(in theory ofc) is a completely different beast.
8% is a ROI that you can get from safe stocks. That's why I said that if the ROI is at least 8% then there's no reason to sell LINK and put it into safer investments.
>You can't hold all your linkies to that What makes you so sure? Never underestimate iron hands.
Jace Hall
so you know the cost of the api data, you know the % of collateral need for the contract, and you know what company and industry will use CL network already? So you pull that 8% out of your ass just because 8% is a safe roi from stock? amazon and apple ELKs didn't even do 8% last year
Ryder Gonzalez
Jesus fuck do you have any reading comprehension? I'm saying IF the ROI of running a node with LINK collateral or letting someone else use your LINKs is bigger than 8% a year, then there's no point to sell your LINKs just to put them into safe stock funds/indexes.
Take your time reading it. Read it more than once.
Also it doesn't have to be exactly 8%. Just look up some stock indexes/funds whatever and see what you get for yearly ROI. It can be between 5%-10%.
Ayden Phillips
In the current market, if link was to get to No 5 (where litecoin is at the moment) at 3 billion MC, we would be looking at around $10 LINK. I think that's probably achievable over the next few years. The only thing that worries me about link is the amount of exchanges to buy it on - the CL team don't seem to give a shit about wanting to get LINK purchased by the public.
Logan Harris
Are you retarded? It‘s on binance and will be listed on coinbase after mainnet
Jackson Howard
Look at the amount of different exchanges big MC coins have. Link has fuck all in comparison
8T mcap would be crazy. But if we did, I think that there would be less coins in the space than there were doing big bullrun. Meaning most of the money would be located in a few other coins.
