Has anyone actually followed the transfers along in Etherscan?
I thought this was mostly fud, but I've just begun following the transfers and it's pretty strange.
The 700k transfers are usually sent to multiple addresses before eventually being broken down into smaller increments (i.e. 100k) until they end up in a wallet that actually is sending them to binance.
So it actually does appear as though as many of these tokens were sent to binance for cashing out.
Attached is the image of (one of?) the wallet that is sending the coins to binance...
This unironically has me thinking this is the actual cause of the correction and not weak handed faggots coughing up their links
It doesnt take a genius, just look at when the transfers happened.. its obvious they dumped. Its also funny they havent dumped any after this large correction
Gabriel Johnson
I'm trying to determine what percentage of each 700k dump ended up being sent to binance.
The sketchiest part is that they are sent through multiple wallets as though trying to make the tokens a bit harder to track before ultimately going to binance...
Oliver Cox
if they were trying to obfuscate their "dumps" why would they send it to the same wallet every single time? lmao
They don't send it to the same wallet. They send them through multiple wallets then they seem to end up in different wallets that are the ones that ultimately send them to binance in smaller batches than 700k...
Hudson Cruz
This is my only chance at a regular life. I’m holding it to 0
Asher Turner
This is a team that is manually dumping 700k on their phones at market price. Hence why they fucked up and had a 70k and 630k dump back to back. They literally have no idea what they are doing.
Benjamin Smith
Relax guys. From here it will gain about 59,000% by eoy
Austin Long
Does it not concern you in the slightest that there are still several wallets with 50M tokens (as this wallet dumping the 700k was initially)?
Jose Stewart
>Its also funny they havent dumped any after this large correction This is the biggest red flag
Lincoln Jackson
Didn't sergey once say that he was worried there isn't enough tokens. I'm not worried
Jace Clark
They’ve explained why in their white paper, to anons that emailed the team and even talked about it on stage at the ETH developer conference.
I mean, in truth they recently hired a handful of new devs, most likely having low-mid 6 figure salaries at the least.
It’s not the sketchiest thing in the world, but it could certainly use a lot more transparency, considering it was an ICO startup.
Logan Baker
Surprise surprise, fat ass Sergey hasn't made a transfer in over a week since the major dump has occurred. Pretty clear he's just dumping at this point, if not, why would he not make a 700k transfer in over a week?
Joshua Turner
Your explanation would make sense if they didn’t dump exclusively when the price is rising
this is good, which means they're expecting price to rise again. good sign that they still have a lot to dump. I'd be worried if they've dumped a lot already and don't have much to dump later, which means they don't think it will rise much later
Alexander Hill
>I'd be worried if they've dumped a lot already user I...
The tokens are being sent into the mainnet, you fucking paid shill
How the fuck can the mainnet operate without tokens?
Adam Hughes
Not that I'm aware of...
Jacob Ward
What did you check? Put your fucking glasses on blind fuck.
Julian Sullivan
They're literally not, and you'd know this if you followed them on etherscan yourself
Matthew Taylor
>The tokens are being sent into the mainnet Only when the price is pumping, right?
Thomas Martin
"Harder to track" how is literally anything on the blockchain hard to track as long as you know where one wallet is. What's there to track? All the information is there, faggot.
Luke Ward
This...I've already made up my mind...its done
Luis Rodriguez
My ID says its PIE so that basically confirms it
Owen Cox
>sent to binance yes >for cashing out unproven, and LINK/ETH pairing (which is a better point of comparison than LINK/BTC or LINK/USD since it shows LINK performance relative to other alts) does not really support the hypothesis that some 10 million tokens have been dumped on the open market. This is just stale FUD by now.
We have been crabbing +/- 10% in vits since early July. Admittedly we're on the lower end of that range at the moment, but as a point of comparison, LINK was CHEAPER in ETH value back as early as July 6.
Julian Murphy
Why nobody remember that Sergey never want to discuss LINK price.
LINK is used as funding token (like XRP) for the next years.
Ryan Foster
Just another chainlink newfag here that things any repeating digits in a post is significant. There's lots of them lately
And here, since you clearly haven't checked shit, let me do your fucking work for you, you useless POS:
As you can see, this is also the wallet where 630k was sent and this is where smaller batches are sent out to other wallets. Let's follow the 300k amount sent 9 days 5 hours ago, it gets sent here (let's call this next one WALLET A)
And you'll see, here is the wallet where all the large amounts are sent to binance from. If you follow all of these large transactions, they mostly all end up here save for
Andrew Lewis
i can't follow along, please make it more simple for me
Nicholas Bell
It requires a more complex data structure/tree to account for it/organize it if you want to think of it that way. There are several "extraneous" branches of the tree that lead to the ultimate same spot where large amounts were moved into a wallet with no transaction history besides moving that amount in for a few minutes then moving it out.
Christian Garcia
What other reason would they be sending tokens from a developer wallet to binance for? Why would they be holding tokens on binance instead of on their own secure wallet...?
William Ross
Ok, now fucking show us pictures of those amounts showing up on the order books or kindly STFU faggot
Blake Diaz
First try actually going to the links above. If you're being serious, what part don't you understand?
Bentley Evans
Get me access to binance's archived books and I will...
Why do you suppose they would be sending tokens to binance instead of holding them themselves? The volume has been more than high enough to prove that much larger amounts were exchanged than these each day on binance...
What more logical reason do you propose? Just feel like keeping millions of coins on binance instead of in a wallet that's been secure for years...?
Isaiah James
>I thought this was mostly fud, how much of a fucking brainlet do you have to be not to check it out before ruling it as fud you deserve to be poor
Juan Sanchez
Lol you guys deserve the suffering. Thanks for flaunting this useless fucking token and ignoring real projects. Go fuck yourselves and fuck link
Matthew Thomas
Hi Anima, go dilate
Dominic Stewart
Either LIDF paid by team or genuine retard. Probably both.
Carter Powell
Just did the math, 8,600,000 tokens have been dumped from the wallet that is directly sending them to binance in the past 45 days (the wallet's oldest transaction is 45 days, 3 hours ago)
Joshua Reyes
Have been busy
Don't know what this means
I'm just expressing facts regarding these tokens, not sure why anyone is getting butt hurt.
And then just click the "from" address for each transaction of 100k-400k. If you follow them back to 3 or 4 wallets, you always end up back at the dev wallet that was sending them out in 700k batches...
Justin Wright
If LINK hits $0.98 I’m selling half my stack
Nicholas Rodriguez
>Devs get paid in tokens >Everyone agrees with this. It's in the whitepaper, it's on the site. >Devs sell the tokens they were paid in >ZOMG HOW DARE THEY
But this would suggest that the devs are NOT paid in tokens because one single wallet is the one that is ultimately sending the tokens to binance for liquidation (or for whatever reason they're sending them to binance since previous anons, despite not saying why, appear to think there is some reason for doing that). Furthermore, if the devs were getting paid in tokens, I could guarantee you that some of the American devs would have chosen to cash out using coinbase...
It's just strange...
Austin Hill
This is why we all need to report to SEC.
Kayden Barnes
>.. its obvious they dumped. Its also funny they havent dumped any after this large correction
Interesting theory on the ETH pairing thing, I was actually just thinking about that yesterday, whether I should be charting alts more in ETH rather than btc.
Especially now that it’s looking like ETHBTC might start to finally bottom/reverse up soon, that will be the true benchmark to watch during the next bull run, assuming ETH does indeed end up rocketing in sat value. ‘
Gabriel Ramirez
by sergey do you mean a larper? i remember the larper he was larping.
Anthony Morris
kek this retard just realized the team is dumping on him now
Alexander Walker
I'm not 100% sure, but it seems most likely that the team is selling on binance OTC in order to fund future development like they mentioned in the blogpost, thereby sidestepping the general Binance orderbooks.
This would translate into less aggregate demand on normal orderbooks, as large funds and potential node operators who need LINK tokens would buy directly from the devteam rather than on the open market.
This is bullish longterm as it means big players are making large-size purchases of LINK tokens already, either in prenegotiated amounts for running nodes or as direct long-term investments. Short term it reduces orderbook demand, but really it means Sergey is keeping the speculative price separate from the fundamental price until the network establishes itself through real-world usage.
Jose Rogers
kek linkers are so deluded, they think it's "unproven" that the tokens are being dumped because no one has order books screenshots of it. That is the most desperate cope I've seen in my life. There's no order books screenshots if you use the API to sell 1 link per second.
Daniel Nelson
>Team owns 65% >Team sold 2% of their tokens, still 98% left to dump >Price dump 60% >Linkers: This is bullish longterm kek the cope
Bentley Taylor
>Market demand for large quantity of tokens in a highly illiquid market >Devteam actively hiring and making investments into related technologies like Towncrier and Treeleaves >Implying this isn't bullish for the future of decentralized oracles
David Young
>implying the fact that the team still have 98% of their tokens to dump after a 60% price crash is bullish kek coooooooooope
Ian Perez
Oh alright, you got me. I'm coping with the best-performing cryptoasset over the past year and their responsible business practices.
Guess I'll just wait a week for your next "Insider LARP" thread and the FUD to mysteriously vanish.
Alexander Evans
Ahem listen here brainlets the team are selling it to an OTC firm, this is how OTC firms operate, there isn't necessarily a buyer on the other side for the whole batch, that's why they sometimes sell part of the batch on binance. The team is literally dumping on you, but most of it is dumped on a boomer whale who can't tell that chainlink is shit tech.
If you don't believe me that's how OTC firms operate here's an interview with a bitcoin og running an OTC firm. He touches on his OTC firm at the very end and suggests there's plenty of automated trading and dealing with exchanges going on. youtube.com/watch?v=g1CIVSOAcK8
Noah Hall
>Can't post pics >Can't prove shit
The argument is over. You'll never be able to prove anything.
Luke Foster
They are selling them to burn then and make it better to increase the value
Luke Rivera
I think the key thing that everyone is amazed with is the buying power.
700k drops and people are continuously buying it up. The price has stabalized in betweekn 18k to 20k stats. Unbelievable.
Chainlink price chart looks ready to skyrocket. The best investment of 2019 is about to get even better into 2020.
Owen Campbell
The fact that ChainLink is compatible with Ethereum has nothing to do with whether there is a mainnet (hint: there obviously fucking is one). I’m now convinced you people are paid shills—your lies are too high-effort.
Juan Gutierrez
STOP SUCCESSFULLY DEFEATING FUD, I NEED IT TO DROP TO 50¢
James Cox
this was literally day 1 information you idiot. there is literally 0 reason to transfer assets to binance like this unless they were willfully trying to obscure it's final destination. it's shady as fuck, and you have to be an idiot to still be holding this shit.
Jordan Campbell
People are buying it up? The volume has dropped from over 1000 BTC a day on Binance to 300
Lucas Rogers
what other reason do they have for transferring to binance only when it pumps if not to dump them? why aren't they transferring 700k right now when the token isn't doing shit but losing value?
Evan Scott
Sorry to tell you kid, whether its to sell or obscure movement, its not shady....its just business
Adam Morris
Exactly. It's obvious they are dumping, if not, they would have made atleast 1 transfer in the last week
Kayden Reyes
Why in the fuck do they need tens of millions in the last 2 months, not even counting the $32 million
Gabriel Cruz
yeah, people have been buying it up obviously. Who the hell here can sell 700k LINK without the price cratering. let along selling it batches of 700k LINK.
LINK has the strongest chart pattern in all of crypto. My god. Chainlink looks like its about to explode higher. Those that can't see it are just in denial.
Joseph Sanders
They're in Mumbai.
Lincoln Ward
well, They adressed this.
They are selling to expand the team. I mean, when your partnered with half of the crypto projects and adding more partners, google and oracle integration with 50 startups on the way.....i Mean DAMN, yes, you have to expand to handle demand.
They are already top 3 Gas spenders on the Ethereum chain. The calls for data through the oracle network is gonna be insane volume in about 2 months.
Camden Thompson
gl. i sold 20k between $2.50 and $3.50. will sell half of what i have left at $1, hold the rest forever
Robert Gray
because people in mumbai got millions to spend.
Xavier Wood
Millions of peaches.
William Morgan
listen you stupid mother fucker. They are using the binance to obfuscate the transaction. if you keep following the wallets they all end up at the same place in small increments
Cooper Harris
Because there's a perception that they're dumping the tokens. If they dump when LINK is at its low, I can see people panicking even more.
Asher Perez
They don't need tens of millions to hire 10 people to the team fucking lmao the cope
Robert Flores
they're probably buying intellectual property in addition to hiring, who knows they may even need to move to a larger office with a better location
James Nelson
Based
Logan Diaz
Well if you have no proof then why should we believe you
Jordan Wood
They dont think much of you braindead holders
Jayden Butler
They aren't being dumped, they are being used to build out the platform. Nodes, API and start up marketing of customers. Don't buy the rest the bullshit on here.
Isaiah Peterson
link is shit ethereum is the real innovation that will have a massive positive impact and change the world for the better
Matthew Fisher
Imagine the levels of delusion to actually believe this shit
Jaxson Flores
If the volume was rising and price falling, we'd be in trouble
David Flores
According to biz if you have no actual proof then the worst is immediately assumed. It's also why we have a bunch of conspiracy nutjobs here.
Christian Hill
How come every time I refresh the chain link main page the Cayman Islands address changes? I had to refresh it a few times but it changed a few times!
Xavier Walker
Behold the bagholding brainlet. Everyone sold at $4 after they dumped the first batch. Enjoy holding your bags to 0.
Noah Mitchell
The tokens were being sent to Binance to sell. Sorry folks, no CEA or OTC, they were just sold. Not all of them have been sold though, some still sit in ether wallets and the team still have a stack on Binance. The team has been raising money for network development, like they told you they were.
John Gomez
Show us the corresponding LINK transfers going from binance to smart contract addresses for the link mainnet, you delusional FAGGOT. Devs aren't 'hiding' transfers to muh node operator startups, they are exit scamming in broad daylight. I can't wait for it to dump to zero and the chainlink websites to go offline. One great thing about this coin's bagholders is that they will definitely dedicate their lives to tracking sergey down and bringing him to justice, which will provide endless entertaining Jow Forums threads
Austin Adams
>t. BitConnect holder when it was $400
Nicholas Allen
You’re right, they’re not hiding transfers. But they’re not exit scamming either. Just watch this space.
William Morris
Good luck fren. I’m in DEEP at $2.72. If Chainlink doesn’t recover in the next 18 months, I’m in rough shape. I’ll survive, but it will be rough.
>I’m in DEEP at $2.72 wew. how nu are you? shame you won't get told to lurk moar.
Aiden Carter
>LINK/ETH pairing (which is a better point of comparison than LINK/BTC or LINK/USD since it shows LINK performance relative to other alts) does not really support the hypothesis that some 10 million tokens have been dumped on the open market. I know you're shilling and you don't actually believe this but you did make me kek hard so thanks for that! LINK/BTC is by far the LINK trading pair with most volume. LINK/ETH is mostly arbitrage trading bots and a small percentage of real people buying, so why are you looking at it to detect volume from the dumps? Why would they dump their LINK for ETH when ETH/BTC is looking grim and an increase in trading volume for LINK/ETH would looks suspicious?
Jaxon Sanders
didn't read; not selling.
I'll spoonfeed all of you retards. It's no coincidence the 3-4 million link wallets popped up during the exact duration the 700k transfers started occuring.
Stay poor.
Zachary Sullivan
This is the only correct answer. Biz is a joke anymore. These are all coming out the back end of Binance and are being concentrated into several very large wallets. The question is now, who are the holders of these wallets? They are definitely going to be for staking in nodes for someone. Most likely a specific group of banks working together on something. Hmm. Derivatives maybe?
