I reached 10,000 LINK. I'm about 80% sure I bought the absolute top of this bull run and I'm gonna be dumped on hard and for a good long while, but I'm not willing to take a 20% risk. I've put now, about 36,000 dollars just to get a 10k stack. If I had just done it a month ago (when I originally came here) I could've gotten it so much quicker. These 36k USD make up most of 2019's income for me, so it's a pretty big deal for me to go all in like this. Luckily I'm a 19 year old almost-NEET who works online with no real responsibilities, so if it turns out all the FUD was right, it won't blow for me as much as it would with a wife and kids.
I did it, Jow Forums

You're already ahead of the game if you had 36k as a 19 year old

This isn't the top of the bullrun, nor is it in a bullrun right now.
Adrian Johnson
I now have to wait fucking 13 days for coinbase to approve the link I bought, but I'm glad I priced it all in when I did. I actually have 10,400 now so I'm gonna use that extra 400 to swing trade and see how far I can get. If I lose it all I won't be too disappointed really. Honestly I don't feel much right now, for the last 18 hours I've been hoping LINK would dump but it did the literal worst thing I could've hoped for: crab the entire fucking day and night. Literally only exited out from below 3.65 for like 10 minutes. It's been in the 3.70s THE WHOLE FUCKING DAY. Made me wanna punch the screen when it would slowly rise. To me that was a signal that we may not be going back, even if I only had 20% confidence in it. What drove me most to be impatient and buy was the comparison between the current state of the LINK graph on CMC, and the ETH graph between feb 5 2016 and feb 25 2016, wherein the price pumped hugely, dipped a healthy amount, then never saw a dip that low ever again.
Brayden Bailey
Extremely based. Your going to make it, make sure to hold fast.
Kevin Fisher
Yes, I've been very lucky to earn the amount I have. Since the beginning of the last semester of high school I've made over 90,000 dollars just working online with no real schedule. Won't reveal what it is but it involves programming.
Give me more of that hopium bro.

>swinglinking only a (((part))) of your stack
Absolutely disgusting, your setting down a dark path of the swing linker.
Sure you might only use a small part of your stack now, but if your successful you'll delude yourself into using more of your stack and then you'll get singularity pumped out of no where and destroyed.
And then you will hang from the rope like picrelated.
Jose Perry
I'll get back to you on that.
Daniel King
Just don't sell or try to swing. Every swinglinker gets rekt eventually and loses a large portion of their stack. Have iron hands if we do dump. But honestly I don't think we will dump.
How does it feel that you could possibly be a millionaire in 6 months OP? September is going to be turbo bullish for Link and it's really going to kick off there. $25 absolute minimum for EOY.
Easton Garcia
>Just don't sell or try to swing. Every swinglinker gets rekt eventually and loses a large portion of their stack.
I have seen family friends lose everything daytrading. I understand where this argument's coming from, that it's like a gambling addiction. I know:
>but i'm different
but really, I am using these 400 links as basically play money. If I get to 1,000 I'll dump it into LIT, RLC, and VIDT or other biz coins.
>Have iron hands if we do dump
I will probably buy more if we do honestly, because starting this month I'm making a lot more than I used to.
>But honestly I don't think we will dump.
I think it went up too fast to be sustainable.
>How does it feel that you could possibly be a millionaire in 6 months OP?
I've thought about this before, wherein if it had only a slightly higher marketcap than that of ETH (and thereby being priced at approx. or below $100 a pop) I would have an equivalent of a million bucks. I won't be selling though, not for a while.
Nathaniel Gutierrez
We already did dump. Do you have any idea what's been going on?
Juan Scott
We went to $5.08 and then to $2.87. I had $1000 ready at the exact bottom of that dip luckily, so made a bit off that. I don't know man, it just feels like the Coinbase listing force-coupled it with BTC. That shit will crash and burn eventually with how useless and convoluted it is with the wait times and transaction fees, it just might take a while, but LINK seems to be riding the same waves now that BTC does with its Tether pump and dumps.
Hope I'm wrong.
Evan Scott
A man can only afford a 30,000 dollar mistake once in their life. It takes years to recover.
Ryan Cox
As I said, I'm still very young so I don't think the effect would be as bad as if I was say, in my thirties.
Austin Stewart
>That shit will crash and burn eventually
No it won't, normies are fine with using low-quality software and they do it all the time. LINK is doing fine at the moment.
Samuel Harris
congratz marine, youre amazing you actually did what most of us did back in 2018, most biz got themselves the 10k suicide stack(advised by assblaster himself) so now just forget about your stack and wait with us...sur you paid your ticket at a higher price then us...but you made it into the rocket
Ethan Reed
Am I going to make it? Just bought $10k worth more. I'm all in
Robert Morales
>I've put now, about 36,000 dollars just to get a 10k stack.
oh nononononononono
Aaron Hughes
Normies do not use the software associated with bitcoin. Almost ALL the money in Bitcoin, and crypto as a whole, still remains as just pure speculation, and is traded on exchanges, rather than being transferred locally. This will change over the next few years, and it will weed out the crap coins in the game. Just like the dotcom bubble, which built up over 5 years and killed all the businesses that were started up the same way ICOs were pumped in 2017 (they were literally called IPOs; the similarities between these two situations are striking, even down to the similar acronyms), this too shall pass.
I believe LINK will do this, among other tokens.
Brody Jones
>keeping funds on an exchange
You’re going to get sim swapped and lose everything
Jack Lee
How did you know to believe and trust the Link marines instead of the other dissenting anons?
Andrew Fisher
For a newfag you're making some pretty big fucking predictions about where cryptocurrencies are heading.
>Normies do not use the software associated with bitcoin
This has nothing to do with what I said. Normies use slow and low-quality products all the fucking time and it isn't going to cause Coinbase to "crash and burn"
>Almost ALL the money in Bitcoin, and crypto as a whole, still remains as just pure speculation, and is traded on exchanges, rather than being transferred locally. This will change over the next few years, and it will weed out the crap coins in the game.
And you know this how?
Christopher Anderson
It's going to be worth around $1000 in two months.
Austin Williams
I don't know what that means! Should I store it on a USB?
Landon Lopez
Fugg, I honestly DO just wanna forget about this and come back in like 5 years to discover I'm rich beyond my wildest dreams and all, but I'm addicted to reading Jow Forums like a true neet. Also I wanna start staking when that's ready.
How much do you have now?
yes, I know... my being late here has caused me to put a higher dollar amount into this coin than most of you guys did, even though yall have far higher stacks than me.
Before the google pump Jow Forums was still relatively reddit-free, so discussion of LINK tokenomics was still discussed. After a week of being here I just sat down and read the whitepaper, and in the end had a decent understanding of it all. What really sold me on its importance was looking at other whitepapers and realizing how the Chainlink paper tries to address every possible issue, while other papers put lots of words out without putting them to the test in the abstract.
Also this hopium

In terms of swinging on coinbase how the fuck do you do it. For me as an example I had 460ish in link. As soon as it rose and I'd sell with the fees and shit I'd have 10 to 15 euro less than i should've had. So how the fuck am I supposed to swing if every buy and sell eats up over 5%
Carter Moore
I am
Eli Brown
Good job OP I’m in a similar position as you. What’s your sell target?
Ethan Allen
>it isn't going to cause Coinbase to "crash and burn"
When I said crash and burn I was referring to Bitcoin, not Coinbase.
>And you know this how?
Know what how? That the money is still purely speculative, or that most money is just on exchanges, or that one or both of those are true and that this will change? You need to be more concise in your question.
Cooper Hill
This is hilarious. You're completely fucked on the off chance you're serious OP
Liam Lee
I know, you said you bought more, what, did you have like 27 before? Surely 3194 isnt all you have
Connor King
I have no idea. I'll probably wait 3 or 4 years and cash out a small chunk of it, live off that for a good while, then if ChainLink tokens have taken over as the world currency by then, no I will never sell.
You see I don't know what I'm gonna do with them, I just know I want them because of how powerful they're gonna be.
Justin Wilson
We'll see
Andrew Brooks
>then if ChainLink tokens have taken over as the world currency by then
In case some redditor faggot disregards everything I said previously because of this, yes, I'm being facetious. But I still have no idea just HOW powerful LINK tokens will be in 5-10 years. Any guess of mine might be off by 90%.
Joshua Kelly
500 before. Bought the rest not too long ago
Levi Miller
You better hold onto those tight user, that's a post-2018 sized stack and you're cutting it pretty close.
Benjamin Adams
Anyways I've been up for 22 hours now just cause I had been waiting for LINK to dip below 3.50. I'm almost sure it'll happen, and actually much further than that, but I wasn't completely convinced it would then, and remain so. Nothing worse than being left behind like that user who missed out on ETH going from $6 to $1,000 cause he waited for a dip that never came.
Nathaniel Reyes
Good night Jow Forums, I will sleep very comfortably this morning -> afternoon
Asher Allen
I'm thinking I'll erase biz and link from my memory and not come back for a year
Elijah Harris
You knowingly used your life savings to buy the top of the flavor of the month cryptocoin with no real world use case. Why not at least average in?
Samuel Martin
Yes it's addictive and spending too much time with it might make you slip up and swing your stack or something stupid.
I'll wait it out. We'll see.
Thomas Perry
> he paid 36k dollars for a 10k stack
Hahahaha this is fucking brilliant
Jaxon Stewart
No idiot. Don't wait and see. Sell that shit right now and average in instead. Don't do this op. You're not thinking clearly. The pain of LINK pumping without you has rendered you temporarily numb and irrational.
Evan Thompson
This. But the sort of idiot who ignores link for years is exactly the sort who dumps all in at once at the ath.
William Anderson
Get a hardware wallet, I recommend Trezor since it’s open source
Landon Sanchez
Actually the opposite because of the time value of money. Not necessarily saying what you did was wrong though. I have no crypto of any kind but was taking a look at buying some chainlink as well since the dip.
Jaxson Cook
Just use a paper wallet dumbfuck.
Grayson Thompson
Thanks. Thinking about getting vidt and lit $1000 each to hopefully be in the position link was in a months ago and hold those. Then forget about crypto for a long time
Thanks! I'll look into it asap
Christopher Martinez
