Sergey is selling off gradually, and then when he and his team have determined they have profited enough from Chainlink they will literally market dump the rest of the supply.
The chart will be Bitconnect-tier on that last market dump. They have THIRTY-EIGHT MILLION left to dump.
>Exit scam this far away from the ath You fucking retards can't seem to understand that BTC still makes every coin its bitch and BTC has been crashing for weeks to 10k so Link is bleeding like every coin. Instead of making up garbage tier accusations of link being an exit scam and Sergey selling low like a true Jow Forumsraeli look at the crypto market as a whole.
Elijah Smith
Nigger, are you a retarded little freak? What does "selling low" matter to Sergey when he literally printed these tokens out of thin fucking air?
Ryder Sullivan
Why would he only want half of what he could have had? Also, why do you militantly despise link? Whos fucking paying you to post? What whale is organizing your little fud campaign here?
Jayden Hill
so you are saying that dumping or market selling close to 1 million link has only managed to drop the price from 2.6 to 2.3? Do you see how moot your schizo argument is there retard
Hudson Russell
>LINK is a fucking exit scam All of crypto is a fucking scam, Sherlock.
Liam Torres
DUURR DRNS HURRR NEVAR SELLING
Can we at least try to have an honest discussion about this without all the LE EPIC MEME shitposts? The creator is selling his stack with no end in sight and has no new material to present to prospects. Realistically, what's going on?
Parker Martin
Realistically? Nothing based on the price movement.
Liam Diaz
>why do you militantly despise link
I despise scams, Sergey is a smart guy - he's not obfuscating the dumps at all. He knows that he has a cult-following of "LINK-marines" here on biz that will keep putting up buys that he can dump onto. The decision not to obfuscate these dumps does one main thing: it paints a false idea of transparency to LINK holders.
"oh, they're not hiding anything dude, the sells are for expansion of the team! dyor and read the whitepaper!"
This narrative will continue back down to 50c because HE KNOWS HE HAS YOU IDIOTS BY THE BALLS.
As for why he only wants half of what he could have had, I dunno man, but personally I wouldn't be fussed if you gave me $50MM or $100MM in my hand right now for free. Again, probably another red herring to detract from the scam.
The proof is right there on the Blockchain and on the chart.
Liam Rivera
are you trying to save linkys? you know they're deluded and don't want your advice right? they'll go down with the ship if that's what it comes to. stop caring about other peoples money.
John Morales
Realistically? Who fucking knows Whatever the reality is, what are the serious odds of it being revealed here?
Brandon Lee
ding ding ding
Best-case scenario? Sergey is de-risking because he knows there is a chance of failure. Why the fuck would he use the same copy-paste presentation at the mainstage of Web3?
Because further development and adoption is much much further away than the shillers would have you believe. Enterprises will not simply adopt these smartcontracts on a whim. They need PoCs that have been running and producing positive metrics for YEARS on end before that.
Gavin Thomas
So your proof its a scam is >DUDE TRUST ME BRO No fancy larp with numbers at least? Wow, you wont even fucking give me the respect to put effort in.
HAAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA if you think we sell with this 700,000 dump crap you don't understand shit. You also know that link will go up. Stop with this FUD from elementary school. HAHAHAAHHAHAHAHAHA HODL!
Jaxon Lee
Not comparable, Amazon is actually an established company and emerged from its respective (dotcom) bubble.
The proof is on the blockchain and on the chart.
>LALALALALALA I cant hear you DRNS DRNS
Landon Jenkins
>Not comparable, Amazon is actually an established company And Chainlink isn't?
You think Im stupid and easily manipulated by randoms with no argument? All you can do is say Scam this scam that with handwaiving when someone challenges you. Maybe you should actually do your own research instead of blindly believing what you are told...
Evan Williams
Doesn't really matter, Sergey didn't read and still selling
You FUDers can never argue in honest, straightforward terms why you believe Chainlink to be a scam. Rather, you impress upon us the sentiment that Chainlink is a scam and expect us to argue otherwise. You assume the sale in constant bad faith. So why should we listen to you?
>nulinkers still dont understand that if chainlink is a scam and sergey exit scams at some point, sergey will die >because of the amount of people he fucked over is enough to get a bounty on his head with hitmen going after him till he fucking dies
That is why I am not afraid about investing into chainlink, the knowledge that his life is on the line is enough coverage on my end.
The only thing that Google blogpost showcased was the capabilities of LINK re: BigQuery datasets.
In order to become an established company rather than a glorified PoC, Chainlink needs enterprises making use of what has been so vehemently advertised as the solution to the Oracle problem. And as I mentioned, this will not be done on an enterprise scale until PoCs have been in place for years with identifiable and actionable positive metrics.
Hudson Bell
Implying he wasn't dumping at the ATH either
Eli Price
>They have THIRTY-EIGHT MILLION left to dump.
ummmmm no sweetie they have 650m tokens total and 300m are for dumping. the other 350m are to give away free to node operators. they still have 288m of their own tokens left to dump and then another 350m to give away for free. why do you think sirgay is selling NOW right after the coinbase listing and google article. if there was anything big coming up he would have waited to sell. you retards are buying his bags and hes fucking laughing at you morons
Carter Collins
38M you say? Well that may just be the weakest FUD of all
Jace White
The 700k meme wasnt a thing at ath. This is just you guys trying to convine us that up is down and you want us to prove you otherwise rather than simply rebuking unproven accusations.
Isaiah Parker
why would sergey be selling at these prices if LINK was going to go for higher highs? oh thats right, sergey knows its over and thats why hes selling
Can you use actual language instead of doublespeak? Incapability of explaining complex concepts in simple terms shows a lack of understanding.
Grayson Jenkins
My mistake, should have specified in that wallet, alone that is...
Isaiah Reyes
yes because sirgay nor any of the og staffers had a personal link stashes.
Stay delusional land, its safer there.
Levi Foster
>DUDE TRUST ME Once again you need to show me proof.
Kayden Anderson
Idc I've read the whitepaper and 300m tokens are going to be sold, are you retarded? I guess you haven't read the whitepaper
Bentley Lee
Fuck sergey!!! If it goes under $2 he will never see another day of life again !!
Carter Diaz
If you can't understand what I wrote there I think you should go back to /v/.
Bentley Garcia
See
Jaxson Russell
Prove they didnt. See >>succdicc
Brandon Young
I dont think he's selling at all (LINK/ETH pairing has been basically a straight line since July) but playing devils advocate, it would make sense for him to start selling below ATH and then continue in regular intervals, as it gives the impression to regulators that he is not trying to time the market aka pump-n-dumping. If he knew an amazing announcement was around the corner and waited til after the huge pump to dump 10M tokens or whatever, that's just ammunition for the SEC to use later.
David Turner
Once again you won't put any effort in explaining yourself . I'm going to keep calling you out until you stop.
Evan Perez
>its not a partnership you absolute delude Who said anything about "partnership" you moron?
>The only thing that Google blogpost showcased was the capabilities of LINK re: BigQuery datasets. And Chainlink, they also showcased Chainlink.
GOOGLE CLOUD showcased Chainlink.
Cope.
Andrew Brooks
No, we can't have an honest discussion with all your retards rehashing 2017 fud. The team literally told us 2 years ago that exactly this would happen. The selling is not relevant to any discussion but it's all we hear about from you shitbrains these days. The price hasn't even dumped as a result, it's still rank 16, 1 from its ATH. Literally nothing negative has ever happened. The price holding up with this selling, even after the insane run this year is without a doubt the most bullish thing that has happened to Link and you idiots try to make it sound bad. If any other crypto on the market did a 10x in the current market the crash would put it back where it started.
Joseph Nguyen
Is English not your first language because I can't think of a simpler way to explain that.
PoC is a proof of concept. actionable is having the ability to make a decision because of metrics are measurable statistics as a result of the system's implementation. For instance, foot traffic in a store over a period of time is an actionable metric over a change in advertising.
Can you wrap your head around that?
Evan Hall
careers.chain.link >14 positions Average salary of 100k leaves them needing $1.4MM per year. So far they have sold over $30MM worth of tokens in less than a month giving those hires 21 years of buffer. Does this add up?

Juan Diaz
You're not explaining what you said. You're giving me dictionary definitions. You obviously don't know what you're talking about at this point because you keep deflecting or you're just being juvenile. Why are you pushing a narrative that you can't even explain in your own words?
Henry Allen
Do you think it's just a simple case of deciding to dump on the exchange and then doing it? Only for the teams that don't give a fuck about the potential legal consequences.
Eli Walker
see hitmen are international
Nicholas Martinez
Just because you can't understand doesn't mean I can't explain it.
It's like trying to teach calculus to a 2-year old.
Noah Bell
>So far they have sold over $30MM worth of tokens in less than a month giving those hires 21 years of buffer. Does this add up? Wait, are you under the impression that wages are the only thing a company has to pay?
Cooper Walker
Nice thread. So linkies, how about that presentation? Chainlink presentations are a game of spot the difference. I've foretold this for many months, maybe even a year back now. This is called a long scam.
Anyone can easily grab money quickly and run, leaving many people infuriated. The smarter way to swindle people is to make it look like you're trying hard, doing all these presentations but nothing is really happening. Make your bagholders so bored with developments, or lack thereof that they just quit and move on. When the last retarded bagholder has dumped his bags (long after you've dumped yours, Sergey), the scammer can slip away, almost unnoticed because no one is fucking following them anymore. This is an exit stroll.
You're doomed to fail in tech investments if you do not understand tech. This is a very basic concept. Zero linkies actually get the system they're pretending to create. Anyone with half an idea knows its dumb, very hard to do and ultimately pointless. Shoving middleware where its not needed. There is no point in decentralizing CENTRALIZED data feeds. If I split a dollar into one hundred cents I don't have more money. If I get a direct feed via an API from a sole, singular weather station in a city, I don't need a botnet of 50,000 linkshit 'oracles' telling me what the temperature is. I can feed that into the blockchain myself with a day's worth of coding.
So what's the next event/month/year you're waiting for to be rich from your ERC coin that relies on Ethereum with its 14tps?
Gavin Ross
You gave me fucking definitions for terms, you didn't explain what the fuck "I mentioned, this will not be done on an enterprise scale until PoCs have been in place for years with identifiable and actionable positive metrics" means. Thats word salad which shows me that you don't know and are just trying to fake it until you make it.
Josiah Jones
>In order to become an established company rather than a glorified PoC, Chainlink needs enterprises making use of what has been so vehemently advertised as the solution to the Oracle problem. And as I mentioned, this will not be done on an enterprise scale until PoCs have been in place for years with identifiable and actionable positive metrics.
So what you're saying is "no moon until finished product and adoption". Well, why don't you wait on the sidelines until that happens.
Surely the price will wait for you.
Ethan Reyes
if link goes below 1.5 usd, sergey will be found dead with a big mac in his hand and another stuffed down his throat
Blake Robinson
have sex, incels
Matthew Rivera
Some people actually believe this. Go look at Chainlink's telegram. Random teenagers from literally all over the world. Imagine thinking this place is some elite investors club. No one would do shit. Fucking hilarious.
Parker Brown
I have enough incentive to go after him if the project turns out be a scam, I have nothing to lose and everything to gain.
Lucas Ross
To be fair, the bigmac in his throat would be self-inflicted
nobody with any real money has gone near this radioactive garbage.
Caleb Green
Again, you don't provide any answer to my statement. The chart doesn't say anything, it shows that there was a movement of 1 million link followed by a drop from 2.6 to 2.3. You are the one claiming these have been sold and yet provide no real proof of this. selling 1 million link doesn't move the price downwards 0.3$, it crashes it to 1 $ at least. Hence your argument is still moot.
Bentley Howard
Yup he not gonna do sheeeeet
Michael Edwards
show proof that there are no wallets with more than 1k links
Ethan Murphy
wow nice line user
Landon Parker
I forgot how Microsoft, Disney, Apple and every big company ever had to get someone famous to invest first. My bad.
Dude, seriously? You can't grab meaning from that sentence?
Let's unpack this.
The implementation of smartcontracts represents a huge paradigm shift from the way things are done now. However, smart contracts have not been done on a large scale because, according to LINK, of the oracle problem whereby real-world data cannot be transferred reliably onto the blockchain due to trust issues associated with centralized oracles. This inhibits the very purpose of said blockchain.
LINK aims to solve this oracle problem with a decentralized network of oracles which will query the required dataset and transfer information onto the blockchain, providing a guarantee of trust with necessary collateral if that guarantee is broken.
This is all well and good but enterprises will not just adopt this and assume that this will work. They need proof of concepts which have been in place over a period of time (likely years) by which they can receive actionable metrics (pieces of information which tell them whether it made a positive difference) to judge the result of the system on their business.
The 50 startups facilitated are the PoCs which will LINK will likely be judged on. Technically they aren't PoCs assuming they are actual startups, but still. We have to wait until these businesses can provide those metrics for giant enterprises to onboard their systems to smartcontracts enabled by chainlink.
The crypto market isn't in the business of waiting for years to facilitate the time needed for LINK to provably work. LINK went up too much and too fast and this stage in development. It will bleed for years before these metrics can be delivered to enterprises.
Dylan Carter
ahh i love it, where are the linktards now? he's literally taking a shit on your heads looool
Landon Watson
I'm just so exhausted bros I keep reading the hopium on here and plan my new made it life only for it to be put on hold. I tried trading with other altcoins but bros I should've just bought this to begin with and held. Now I need linkies to go 7$ just to break even for my initial capital. I have lost all hope bros.
Brandon Long
>LINK went up too much and too fast and this stage in development. It will bleed for years before these metrics can be delivered to enterprises You're just describing the crab market we already know we're in. Lot of work to just say nothing. This evenmoreso shows me that your scam narrative is artificial.
Luke Watson
>14 positions Those are the positions they're currently looking to fill you absolute moron. According to Rory there are already 20-something employees at Chainlink.
So 34 times an average of 125k (100k + 25% overhead) = 4,250,000 USD per year.
That's just wages. And unlike what you think, wages are not the only operating expense a company has. There's also rent (in SF and NY no less), consultancy, legal, audits, basic utilities, licencing, etc. etc.
This is very much not the board for you.
Benjamin Brown
link takes data from a centralized api and then decentralizes it. you can take a piece of shit from my asshole and cut it up into a million tiny piece but at the end of the day its still a piece of shit that came from my centralized asshole
Ryder Mitchell
also lunch catering
Jayden Sanders
basic and straightforward. adding any complexity doesnt make it any better
Luke Richardson
decentralizes it to a handfull of centralised arbiters
Austin Jackson
The current data is running the world as we know it. You are fudding the current way the world is run just to take a stab at Chainlink.
You are a massive trenchbrain.
Isaac Hall
Totally depends on your definition of a scam. If LINK fails, make no mistake Sergey and co. are dumping the rest of the tokens and disappearing with your money. The tokens that have already been dumped represent derisking and clearly show that the team does not even know if their system actually works on an enterprise scale, nevermind if it will be adopted.
This is also concerning. Trust has to be assumed from the source where there is data that can only be pulled from one place. A network of centralized oracles does fuck all to guarantee correct data if the legacy database is hacked beforehand. Yeah decentralized Oracles can guarantee a totally accurate feed of data for say, temperature in a geographical location where there are obviously multiple datafeeds but how big of a market subset is the proprietary data which only exists under the care of a single organization? Assumably, quite big.
Jackson Cruz
fundamentally they can only dump 54 more times then
Liam Stewart
>individual nodes are "centralized" so blockchain isn't decentralized
Bitcoin BTFO.
Hunter Morris
Except CMC still has circulating supply at 350M. Which means the 700k LINKs arent hitting the open market. Which leaves us with, really, only one conclusion.
700k LINK are being sold in the binance OTC market to bigger players. Simple.
Ethan Thompson
