Desperate attempts to keep the price down...What is approaching?

ooooooooooooooooooooooohhhhhhhhwheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee hot mamma call my pa, get the chickens down their birthday suits

I'm in deep. If this fails I'll lose 20k USD. My family would think I'm actually crazy for investing this much as they'd tell me I should be more cautious and just save money. Hope it all works out.

lol

I wish I could be in that deep..

You've done your own research yeah? (Or been spoon fed is acceptable)

delet this

The price right now is based on pure speculation. Which means the more FUD we can spread, the lower the price will be, the more we can keep accumulating until it actually blows up.

pls

I'm actually the same, user. We won't fail.

You think thats insane. I took a 50k loan out, I didnt know any better and bought at the all time high. But I truly believe in the Anons here and they wont lead me astray.

so how many linkie you got? 50k?

I'm sitting on 76k stinky linkies right now at an average of $0.50. We're all gonna make it.

What do you do for a living?

computer engineer, embedded systems R&D

If I wanted to be both a mechanical engineer and a computer engineer, which would be better to do first?

Strange combination, but I would definitely choose computer engineering first.

1) You make more money to start with
2) The classes and some topics are more difficult
3) You will greatly improve your abstract thinking, which will only help your ME education as you learn things like statics and fluid dynamics

Tell me I will make it with 16k you filthy whore

lol? what do you mean lol? THATS ALL YOU HAVE TO SAY? FUCK YOU I HOPE YOU DIE MOTHERFUCKER DON'T EVER RESPOND TO ME LIKE THAT AGAIN FAGGOT

Realistically, my target for LINK is $15-30 EOY

If $200k - 500k is enough for you to make it, then yes.

I could also see $100 happening within the next 12 months.

20k is the minimum to make it.

Did you faggots not watch this? Fuck off this board with your shitcoin, it is worthless.

nice try fag

I actually watched about 5 min of this once. The guy's retarded. I hope he makes a video after it hits $10 and mainnet goes live.

Thanks. I'm holding till 2020, so EOY prices don't phase me as much. Have you thought much about long term price targets?

Connecting blockchains with each other and external data is more revolutionary than bitcoin. I'm hoping to see $1000, even if it takes 5-10 years.

Thank you for the input. For the longest time I wanted to do ME exclusively but I’ve come to understand if I want to have a competitive edge/stay relevant then computer science/engineering is almost inevitable. Thinking of trying to learn Python in my free time, maybe JavaScript after that, before I go to college full time in a couple years. Or should I just start learning C now? Basically my game plan is to double up in mech/computer science while my brother does materials science (primarily nanomolecules) + chemical engineering. Is this a winning combo y/n?

>Have you thought much about long term price targets?
It's so impossible to say. Given the use cases, kek only knows how high we will go. Assuming it all actually pulls together like it appears to be (and like my gut says), I don't think $1000 is out of the question, unironically.

LOL it's the exact opposite.

C++ is the language you want to learn if you aren't a brainlet. It encapsulates all important elements from Computer Science. Other languages like are easy as fuck to learn once you learn C++. Python is great and very useful but it shields you from things you'll eventually need to learn. Just bite the bullet and learn everything once.

but seriously did Ari post about mcdonalds and toilets?

My honest opinion is that Sergey fucked us hard and exitscammed.

nobody cares about retard's opinions

wise, other user BTFO

>unironically $1000
come on now. link is my largest position but that's outrageous. $1000 is a meme

Lol nigga the whole market is a meme, we have robots literally making billions reading meme lines. So I'm bullish on memes.

people who truly understand the tech know that $1000 is a longshot and a ways off, but totally possible

he's not going to exit scam till $999.99

Very insightful.

Okay. Thanks again for the feedback. I’ve seen people recommend this path generally, seems like it’ll save a lot of time and effort in the long run,

kek

I'm truly thankful people like you will sell early. Thanks buddy. You'll be wealthy, I wish you the best. Not everyone can understand the implications of this project.

I realize it sounds ridiculous, but I have enough industry experience to understand how large international companies operate. If any new technology or strategy can save them a significant amount of money, it will be adopted. There are business leaders who make their names known within a company for being the person that finds these huge cost savings.

Smart contracts connected to the real world in a reliable way is as important an innovation as Ethereum's trusted computing and Bitcoin's decentralized trust network.

The richest companies in the world are insurance and investment firms. Smart contracts are a drop in replacement for many very costly processes in both of these industries.

If ChainLink actually works as its described, it will be adopted, and whatever the long term target price is will be absurd sounding now.

He abso-fucking-lutely did. Not mememing

It will be hard the first few months. One time I remember almost crying from frustration, but after 6 months you'll realize you have a much better understanding of CS than most people that "code" for a living. You have to be diligent though, and study/code everyday.

>1 trillion dollar market cap
yeah, right! totally realistic

>Thank you for the input.
You're very welcome. It's a big decision, but don't kill yourself over it. You have all the time in the world (as long as you don't fuck up your life/body really bad)

>For the longest time I wanted to do ME exclusively but I’ve come to understand if I want to have a competitive edge/stay relevant then computer science/engineering is almost inevitable.
For this reason, most ME's I've worked with in the real world end up learning some basic programming skills (usually in a language like Python). Most ME's also end up being "jacks of all trades" -- at least the good ones. A solid ME is a real godsend.

>Thinking of trying to learn Python in my free time, maybe JavaScript after that, before I go to college full time in a couple years. Or should I just start learning C now? Basically my game plan is to double up in mech/computer science while my brother does materials science (primarily nanomolecules) + chemical engineering. Is this a winning combo y/n?

If you're serious about learning real programming, there is no better language than C++. There's very little in the way of kid gloves, and as the other user pointed out, it forces you to learn a lot of important things (not the least of which is build processes and toolchains).

Python is my go-to simple prototyping and workhorse language. Gain some familiarity with Linux as well (including some Bash) -- again, if you're serious about your competency/usefulness in the computing space. Windows will be dead in the enterprise world in 10-20 years, I'm fairly convinced. Most of the enterprise world uses Linux for important shit nowadays anyhow.

Godspeed, user.

have any more things you wanna say to reveal how much of a newfag you are or are you done

Read "Effective C++" by Scott Meyers. Even after spending years as a programmer, it taught me so much. If you follow what he lays out, you will be a fantastic C++ programmer some day.

Same. I have 30k of my personal savings that I've invested. Everything I've read points to this being legit. They say the difference between and lunatic and a genius is whether they're successful. In any case, I'm prepared to hold for 3-5 years. I could even lose this money and be fine. I dont think that will happen with link

Market cap is a meme. Price is determined by utility and scarcity. Some user did the math yesterday and his conservative calculations (based on Sergey's statements) showed an enormous amount will be locked in nodes.

the $1000 meme is based on the idea that people will keep the supply locked in nodes.
only they won't. they'll sell like people did with btc and eth

that's a lot of chat because surely you won't sell a single one should we reach three digits

This is what I come here for. C++ it is then. I wish I had more to give back than stale memes. Hope you all make it brothers

Why learn all that bullshit and abstract way of thinking when you are going to die in a few decades anyway. Better to go through life as a brainlet

Everyone has a price, user. There will be a tipping point at an individual level. If I'm not retiring off of my LINK sales, I'll stake. Once the value hits retirement level, I'll sell.

Ditto, hope you make it brother. C++ is beautiful and deadly.

Thanks, just bought a copy on amazon. I'm only only about a year in, so I really appreciate this recommendation. I'll buy you a shot at the Lunar Link clubhouse in 2031

Not to twist your head at all, but if you go ME you can teach yourself computer programming along the way. Programming is basically a necessity in these fields anyway, at least to do very well, and I think another user even said that the most successful ME know computer programming. The difference is that if you go into CS as a degree, you'll know the theory better, but if you go with ME you'll only need to know as much CS as is necessary for you to apply to your work. Why waste time? Just go for your end goal.

>genius
>lunatic
you're a gambler and most likely retarded.

you fucking gay faggot, comp eng would be better so that you can use compuders to help you with your mech eng modules... take all the optional programming modules and use programming skills in ur reports ez pz. nigger

you're mom gay

we're going to 4600 and below

then, if news arrive, we shall moon

this is sort of me, I’m an electrical engineer, specialising in power electronics, but I’ve always had a deep interest in compsci and programming.

the most value I can add is at the intersection of those, amongst other things I develop our in-house simulation stack (Python) and other pieces of software infrastructure, like comms libraries and integration with the firmware build system.

these days in almost any engineering field, your ability to leverage computation to multiply your effectiveness is critical. I think I’m underpaid though, lol.

it won’t teach you bare-metal computing fundamentals, but Python is a very effective and widely used ‘glue language’ for simulation and scripting, and numpy provides native-performance vector math like Matlab, I honestly think the ROI is better in an applied field than C++.

I see where you’re coming from and I’ve thought about that as well. Based on what I’ve read basic CS is incorporated into most if not all ME programs so I know I’ll be exposed to it eventually. I guess the long and short of it is that I want to attain an equally high level proficiency in both disciplines and knowing what to learn first will make it a bit easier. My tuition is covered and I’ll have all my electives cleared before I even start so it’s more a matter of deciding exactly how I want to go about it. I’m probably overestimating my competence level.

RIP

Gambling implies luck. Speculation implies a bit of knowledge. I'm a speculator hedging on good information. Sergey's Relationship with Gosner of Docusign and Swift give me a lot of confidence. Of course, that's after considering the WEF's own speculation about the effect of smart contracts and the necessity of an Oracle.

> I honestly think the ROI is better in an applied field than C++.

This is true, there are definitely more jobs for Python devs than C++. Still though, C++ is very widely used and has great respect. Learning Python is a cake walk to learn for someone who has studied C++ for 2+ years.

For examples sake, I'll use Amazon. So Amazon could create a contract or simple wallet address that can receive payment in ETH or any ERC token. Amazon then uses their own ChainLink node to monitor that address. Whenever payment comes into that address, the ChainLink node would notify their API's saying address of X has paid Y amount of ETH. The node can then use an external adaptor to get the live price of Ethereum and then convert it to any currency on the fly, giving them the USD amount.

This would allow for the following use-case: You could send ETH to Amazon that is used for payment, does on-the-fly conversion rates and then notifies their API's.

That's all just with a single CL node.

stop rationalizing your bad habits.

100k all in here. I can live with the outcome whatever happens.

I think you're just concerned about performing well in your field, and you can probably rest assured considering the amount of deliberating you do about this. It is a big decision though. You can certainly do both degrees if you want, but why overdiversify? All that a CS degree will give you is the ability to reinvent the wheel, when you could just go straight to using the wheel as an ME. I say leave the theory to the people who love it and just learn enough to be able to do what you love to do.

Prove to me that LINK is a bad bet. I want your best fud. I don't gamble or buy scratch off tickets. Show me how this is gambling

if Amazon wanted ETH that is
if not they would need a third party buying the eth for usd

check my digits and nothing is certain until it happens, there for all you're currently doing is placing a wager.

>bad bet
>I don't gamble

That's a poor argument because it invalidates all action and offers no replacement. Nice try. Nothing is certain. Waiting for perfect information will leave you waiting for eternity.
The best investments are made while taking advantage of asymmetrical flow of publicly available information.

this. flush yourself down the toilet.

my dick approaching your girls pussy nigga

>More money

Nice try Computer cucks. Just signed a job offer for 80k starting and 100k in stocks over 5 years straight outta of undergrad. Do mechanical user, I get to design shit to blast into space for a living plus computer is full of pajeets. Mechanical is the true masterace.

My statement doesn't invalidate any action, it may however reclassify every action as a gamble. Why do you require perfect information in order to act or assume that others require it in order to act?

I wasn't arguing whether or not chain link was a good investment. I was pointing out that your a fool for thinking highly of yourself for investing in it. It doesn't make you a genius or lunatic regardless of the outcome.

>learn enough to be able to do what you love to do

This is sound advice. I’ll have to think more about it but I could definitely go down the wrong path and overdiversify unnecessarily. It’s not even about being more competitive as it is having a more well rounded understanding of the technology we use everyday. It bothers me that I don’t know how information systems or digital media actually works. I think my desire to become intimate with machinations is part of the reason ME appeals to me. Money is less of an object, I have enough experience in my own field that I’ll be able to find employment afterwards (milfag here) and my GI Bill to cover tuition, I’d like to find work in a different field though. I just want to make things. Like if I ever made enough money where I could reinvest and live off passive income, it would nice to open my own lab of some kind. Things like that.

yea, couldn't be assed to download the episode and make a pic.

I dont think highly of myself. The "lunatic or genius" line refers to how others will likely perceive anyone that invests in chain link (similar to people that invested in bitcoin). We are lunatics in their eyes if it flops and geniuses if it performs well. I dont think it's a genius maneuver. I just happened to be at the right place to find the right information. My comment was more about how people will perceive it. The context is that one of the replies I originally wrote towards was talking about how his family would perceive him

I wasn't advocating for perfect information either. Perfect information would be the requirement so that nothing is a gamble. I think that's a stupid way to live because there will almost never be perfect information.

I have just under 20k invested in crypto right now.

My family and friends also gave me money to invest in crypto which totals to about four grand.

It's all 90% into LINK and 10% into RCN.
