1  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Why I believe chainlink (LINK) is the most undervalued coin in the top 100 on: January 05, 2018, 01:17:43 AM
LINK is a true sleeping giant. Buy now before it wakes up.

yes. I am true believer in it. bought it in around 15 cent, still continue to accumulate. As mainnet coming in March. this will explode soon. I expect XRB kind of pump in a month or two. I suggest every one to have some chainlinks in u r kitty.
2  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Why I believe chainlink (LINK) is the most undervalued coin in the top 100 on: January 05, 2018, 01:11:09 AM
What is Chainlink?

Chainlink is a project that aims to be a decentralized oracle provider for Ethereum, Bitcoin, Hyperledger and other blockchains. It might sound complicated but hang with me. Smart contracts are amazing and without a doubt will change the internet in ways we can't even imagine right now and smart contracts even have potential far beyond the internet, in the real world. The issue right now is that smart contracts (like the ones Ethereum has) cannot communicate with real world APIs and services. What is an API? An API is a set of commands that one program can send to another program, effectively they allow different programs to communicate between each other. APIs power the entire internet and vast majority of today's internet could not function without APIs.

Now how does Chainlink come into play? As I said Chainlink is a decentralized oracle provider. An oracle is a software that allows smart contracts on the blockchain to communicate with off-chain APIs and services. Without an oracle this isn't possible and blockchains with smart contracts can only use data on their own blockchain, which makes them useless for responding to or using anything in the real world or elsewhere on the internet. Currently there are several oracle providers for blockchains, however their major issue is that they are all centralized. Smart contracts are all about decentralization and using data fed from a centralized oracle is a major point of attack.

Say you have a bet with a friend made on a smart contract. The smart contract uses centralized oracle to check the latest ethereum's price. If it goes above $1000 before a certain date, you win the bet and get your friend's $50, if it doesn't then he gets your $50 that is deposited on the contract. The issue with a centralized oracle is that in this case, your friend could just hack into the centralized oracle, make it send false data about Ethereum's price to the smart contract and get your money without actually winning the bet. Not that big of a deal if you made a bet with a friend, but much bigger of a deal if you're a massive company that relies on millions of dollars being handled through smart contracts using oracles.

What chainlink does is that it provides decentralized oracles (effectively hundreds, even thousands of sources of the same data) combined, making it nearly impossible to hack, similarly to a blockchain. In this case, there would be no way for your friend to hack the oracle because the oracle is hundreds of different computers sending the same data.

What partnerships do they have?

The main reason why I think chainlink is so undervalued is due to the amount of partnerships it has and the rumors surrounding its potential partnerships.

On the smartcontract.com website (yes, chainlink owns that domain) they state that their partners are SWIFT (yes, the SWIFT that works with 11,000+ banks worldwide), Gartner, Cornell and World Economic Forum. These are all impressive partnerships, but those are just outside of the blockchain world.

The most recent partnership of chainlink is with ZeppelinOS. ZeppelinOS is an open-source, distributed platform of tools and services on top of the EVM to develop and manage smart contract applications securely. ZeppelinOS is used by projects like OmiseGO, CIVIC, Aragon, STORJ, Tierion, Augur, District0x, Ripio Credit Network, Decentraland and others. And guess what? They partnered with chainlink to use them as their oracle provider once chainlink's main net is up. This is huge, it means that projects that will use ZeppelinOS can easily use a secure, decentralized oracle for their projects if they need one (and many of them do).

This alone is a huge deal for chainlink, but far from end. Request network, which is an amazing project that was recently soaring in price will need to use an oracle for their FIAT gateways and in an update a while back they mentioned that they are in regular contact with chainlink and in an another update recently they mentioned it again as their #1 solution.

These are already huge use cases for chainlink, but it's still not over. There have been numerous speculations of chainlink's partnerships, such as ones with Microsoft, banks and other crypto projects. If you search on chainlink's subreddit for partnerships, you will see a lot of speculation on that, some with convincing proof.

Why is it valuable?

Last but not least, why is the LINK token valuable? Well, apart from naturally increasing in value as the project gains more use and partnerships, the LINK token is used by smart contract owners to pay chainlink nodes for getting data from them and the more LINKs an oracle node has, the more reputable it is. So oracle node providers are incentivized to hold as much LINKs in their chainlink nodes to appear more reputable to the chainlink network, gaining more usage and profit.

LINK staking is another big thing that will do wonders for Chainlink's valuation. Turns out Chainlink oracles can be made into pools, similar to mining pools on bitcoin and ethereum where multiple people come and put their LINKs together to run a more secure oracle node and distribute the profits fairly between each other. This will be huge as it will effectively allow you to stake your LINK tokens and earn more of them passively without doing anything. One such pool in development is LinkPool.

/u/smartcontractsfortax provided a great in-depth explanation of chainlink's value in his comment.

Summary

There are excellent videos from Sergey Nazarov (creator of Chainlink) explaining oracles and Chainlink on youtube, the best probably being from last year's DEVCON. Sergey is also a respected member in the blockchain community, where he created projects like Secure Asset Exchange for NXT and Smartcontract.com.

Chainlink has been in the works for over 3 years and if Chainlink succeeds in creating their decentralized oracle (which I have full faith they do based on the team's previous projects, how close they are and the fact that smartcontract.com currently provides functional centralized oracles) and they successfully provide oracles for majority of cryptocurrency projects, the valuation of the LINK token will be insane. We are talking valuation in tens of billions of dollars, if not more if chainlink actually ends up working with SWIFT and will be partnered with them. Not many people have a chance to get in on a project like this in its infancy that has such a potential for price increase. The current market cap of chainlink is extremely undervalued for the potential the project has and I think we will soon see chainlink come closer to its true valuation as the main net release (Q1-Q2 2018) approaches.

TL;DR: Chainlink is the only project focusing on being a decentralized oracle provider that has a MASSIVE use case, partnerships like Request Network, ZeppelinOS, SWIFT? and the LINK token can be staked in pools in the future to provide passive income.

spread coin is forking as bitcoinspread , possible bittrex support+cryptopia

anything with bitcoin name is premium, current spread coin cost is under 2$, lets assume bitcoinspread trades above 50$ after fork. its possible 10x.below is thir upcoming fork details, doyr . I thrown few hunders dollars on it hoping if it repeat 10% of ZCL.. would be happy with it. its already up 90% today. once this goes to reddit, twitter, normies may fomo and it will do at least 3-5x , possibly more.

so where is windows wallet?

It will be released at a later date, no later than 25th January 2018.

So basically you are going to copy the SpreadCoin repo and create a new coin without changing anything?
Shameful. Another "fork" of BTC to make money...
Can you explain to me what is going on here? Firstly I thought this coin was a Bitcoin Fork, then I realized this is not even a Bitcoin Fork, but used the Bitcoin name, isn't that weird?

Newer features will be implemented.

I like it, copying the REAL spreadcoin thread. Better than Georgem's.
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=715435.0

Devs, could you please explain your history with Spreadcoin and why you are creating this fork?

Cheers.

We're in no way related to the original SpreadCoin developers. Just continuing where they've left off since 2016.

what exchanges this fork supported ? are you guys contacting bittrex for fork support ?

Chainlink is next 100x. when their mainnet up in q2.

So, they will have a separate mainnet in q2? Thanks for the info, buddy!

mainnet is not up yet. they targeting somewhere end of q1-q2.

guys, some one help me on this

I have coins in coinexchange. how to swap them? will coinexchange does it for us? or we need to do ourself? how to convert them pl advise

When CoinsExchange finally updates their wallet (they have been given all the code ages ago) they will automatically convert B3 to kB3. kB2 is to B3 what KG are to grams if that makes any sense. You can currently trade on CE, just not withdraw or deposit at the moment. CoinsMarkets has been trading smoothly for a while now if you want to buy more.



ok, thanks dude, I leave my coins there. dont want to trade.

when is richard ellies releasing rest of 4 billion 900 mill in to ico  folks. with this rate it may take atleast couple of months to get ico tokens back to investors. also just 2% tokens out in market. price tumbling. I believe it fall below 50 sat once 5 bill out to market. from there it raise. I will happily buy below 100 sat in few days.

Please stop posting 100% false information.  690,792,815.39 ET were transferred in the first 24 hours. Not 2%. LOL Smiley All of the hundreds of thousands of accounts were clear as of yesterday and only 600 wallets were locked as of yesterday due to suspected malicious activity. If people wanted to dump over 99.9% already had the opportunity long ago but many don't. Some will probably dump in the future but that wave is mostly done with. The reason the other 4+ billion are not flooding the exchanges is that the majority of investors are not day traders and have no intention on opening a cryptopia account just to dump their coins.
 
Crytopia moved $45 million ETN yesterday alone. That's more than the original ICO investment. Crytopia moved more ETN coins than the other 1,300 coins combined.  Actually, ETN owned Crytopia that day as Crytopia is a small exchange on only moved $36,449,072 USD today.

Applications for other exchanges are already submitted. If ETN gets on hitbtc it will be open to almost 20 times the market size. hitbtc did $644,123,689 USD today. Crytopia is at  $36.449,072 USD

Today it's the 45th largest volume coins out.    
Electroneum   $345,495,182   $0.069134   $8,811,850   4,997,507,466 ETN   

Right now ETN is trading in a relatively tiny exchange.
If ETN gets on one or more of the exchanges below it has the potential to skyrocket.

Crytopia      $36.449,072 USD
Hitbtc        $644,123,689 USD
Bithumb  $3,254,035,200 USD
Bitfinex   $2,606,468,299 USD
Bittrex    $2,029,966,400 USD
Binance  $1,729,793,860 USD   

The Dev team even with all the startup problems are headed by marketing masters in other fields and have had excellent results in those other fields other than Alt coins.

Personally, I missed the ICO but instead mined ETN and day traded them with great success. With almost zero invested  I made over 2 BTC from ETC alone in the month of November and that's growing.


If anyone wants to learn how to Day trade coins. I would watch every single Youtube video by Quickfingers Luc and then Watch every single one Again. You have to understand those tiny little subtleties that you'll miss the first time.

https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCbcxHiowf0TSNKn3xVpGTiQ/videos

Here's an image of some of my ETN trades.

Get yourself a Free https://www.coinigy.com account and practice on endless tiny trades so that you don't lose your wallet. After 100's of tiny trades you'll start understanding his panic logic and the 1 hour charts and can move up to making real money.

another noob spreading false info. all the 6 bill coins in our wallets are transferred during the ICO, all they did was some security enhancement. now problem is those coins in our wallets cannot able to transfer properly about 90% not in market, when they hit , day by day buy support it reducing. sell walls are increasing. as ppl get coins , this keeps go down.  unless team get some tech guys onboard fix problems.  pure marketing. they simple fork the monero not able to make it work. mobile mining app is joke , looks 5rd grader built it so many bugs in it. hope they hire some monero tech guys to fix it rather than marketing, they fix all those problems and do marketing that helps long run.

Finally got my coins after sooooo much bullshit. I dumped them so fast. I'm entirely done with this project. I'm moving on to proven tech, like...

Good for you. All you seem to be doing is trying to entice people to dump their coins for you at this stupidly low price.

its already 6x currently. the more time u wait price go down. from yesterday to today there is less buy pressure about 100 btc. and sell increased 10 mill more. as tokens keep coming , price will fall apart. what a insane the tokens does not have own blockchain, working product. just with marketing 350 mill valuation. no wonder we sitting on bubble.


Let me teach you couple things, as it seems you will be headed for some really rough waters here in cryptoland, if you continue with misunderstanding the blockchain, markets, and ETN itself

No worries, thats why Im here to help the thread "stick to the facts" and point out the counter-point when too many members in the community are looking at things from one vantage point.

Let me clear up the confusion.


1. The more time you wait does not always mean "the more they will go down"


2. As someone has pointed out, this insane amount of ETN you seem to think are stuck, is actually an insane amount of people that have decided to HODL.

This is not surprizing considering the 14 thousand transactions ETN made on day one is 3000 more transactions than the coin we forked (monero) has ever done in a day in its history. This is notable because Monero is a Top Ten coin with a marketcap in the BILLIONS. This is promising because it ETN will have over $1 a coin in price to match/pass moneros MC.


3. Markets cant be analyzed as you would propose they can. We would all be millionaires tomorrow and crypto gurus, if all we had to do is look at buy/sell orders and know what will happen next.

This is a myth and common mistake made by newbies and inexperienced traders.

The reason this will never work is because many traders buy and sell at the current price, instead of placing orders to buy higher or lower than the current price. Many believe buy/sell orders are an indication of what those buying at current price will do, and this is far from true.

From coin to coin, day to day, and hour to hour, the precentage of buyers/sellers that dont wait, can also swing drastically.

Careful as whales also place fake buy/sell walls just for the people that havent learned this is a bad strategy for trading.


4. ETN is not a token, and in fact, DOES have its own blockchain.


5. Find me someone who would characterize $.06 ETN as a "bubble"

good job contra for shilling and leaving etn holders all time bag holding in crypto world.

You're a bit behind the times, the recent drop was from the ICO coins being released Wink

dude, I am way forward, out of 5 bill coins, only 100 mill pass through so far on blockchain because various issues. like 4 bill 900 mill yet to come out.

Things are finally settling down a bit.

Not quite the crash so many expected.

Funny some people are still waiting for the big dip

If it was gonna happen, we would have seen it by now
Shocked
Quite impressive
I know that there are still a lot of people that have their wallets blocked, so we how to see the price after those wallets release.
But the support for this coins is way more than i have expected.
The ICO price at the begining was under 1cent. Now the price is 6-7cent. REALLY IMPRESSIVE, with such a huge amout of coins.
I new this coin had great potential. But never expected such a great support just from the start.
WOW
Still one of my best investment of this year
 Cool


PS: I had prepared some capital to invest , cause i thought that the price could go to ICO or even bellow. Now my plat vanished  Sad
  Grin
Cool


dont think too much. price will fall apart , currently less than 5% coins released in the market. 90% yet to come out. not denying that great potential for project but short term there would be a dip as yet to 4.8 billion coins yet to come put
