LINK

brewmasterlite

Stupid question. How do you stake LINK? Or what is the easiest way to stake chainlink. Any exchanges, wallets let you do it?

PatioFurniture17

Here’s the deal. Wait for a bump higher and sell. Put j to LINK or GRT

whisperedstate

You don't have to be from the US to use Americanism's. I've never met someone who's invested in ETH and thinks litterally everything else is a shitcoin. There are no such people, because Ethereum as a network promotes diversification of crypto assets. People that hold ETH are likely to also have some ARB, or SOL, or XMR, or LINK, or whatever. But one thing is true, people in Ethereum call out bullshit, and 99.999% of crypto os a giant pile of bullshit. Now go find some Bitcoin maxis that think anything but BTC isn't a shitcoin.

LINK gonna be a monster

Schrezberatina

Good reality check. Even before the October crash, if you exclude LINK and LTC, most were still losers compared to their value 5 or 3 years ago.

Powerful-Alarm9394

Can’t give you suggestions, but I’d look for projects that generate stable and increasing cash flow over time and capped or deflationary supply. I will just post my own portfolio: 1. Ethereum (40%) - expecting slow growth over time. Almost sure it won’t go to zero 2. LINK (20%) - same as Ethereum 3. LTC (20%%) - just because I like OG cryptos 4. ZRO (15%) - as a successful business and a hedge against LINK. Smaller percentage than LINK, cause it’s less established and has lots of unlocks. 5. SPX6900 (5%) - most likely will go to zero, but I like the concept and the community. It’s my whim to hold it

Herosinahalfshell12

This has been the narrative of LINK for years but has it happened?

ShoeBaD

Personally, I diversified into a few alts that have momentum as well. ETH LINK SOL

Don't hop on memes. Focus on LINK, ADA, AIOZ, SOL, RNDR for the most part. Play with the tech as much as possible, it gives you a better view of the project.

LINK!!!

Str8truth

We found the LINK bagholder.

AgentAiLeader

I stopped trading based on 'reversal sentiment' and started looking at the Developer Mindshare. ADA and LINK are two very different beasts under the hood. LINK is basically the industry standard for oracles, it’s the plumbing of DeFi. ADA has a dedicated community but a much slower dApp ecosystem growth. If you’re 'backing up the truck,' ask yourself: if the price stays sideways for another 12 months, which of these projects will still have thousands of active devs building on them? I’d rather bet on the infra that everyone else has to use to build their own apps.

UhUhWaitForTheCream

Invest in LINK or FOLKS? Both similar aura but significantly lower market cap. Cheers for your advice

I buy, I hodl, I don't trade frequently… I rotate slowly into narratives I actually **understand** – infra + AI + real revenue. For me that’s AIOZ for decentralized AI + content delivery, a bit of LINK for oracle infra, and some RUNE/INJ for actual usage and fees. I’d rather sit on strong theses for a full cycle than play every 5% candle and pay the volatility tax.

TheRicFlairDrip

the same custodian holding an BTC ETF doesnt have plenty of altcoins to choose from, ETH, XRP, SOL and LINK maybe. Those arent even altcoins anymore if you ask me, they are crypto blue chips.

Fit_Brilliant1708

Just invest in the blue chip alts. The top layer 1’s like ETH. The ones needed for the next financial system like LINK. Privacy like XMR. The top in every category essentially.

trading trading advice from reddit is crazy.... but ill give my two cents anyway I think it depends on how much research you want / have time to do, i work a full time job so i dont really have the time to keep up with the new tokens and such but still like to have some in my portfolio so i just dollar cost average in to ETH BTC and a little bit of LINK, make sure you youre using a safe platform too, shop around different ones to try, i see a lot of people recommending ndax, kraken, wealth simple and dcafun, at least for what i like to do (dca) not much of a lump sum buyer

Dolomite also a Chainlink BUILD partner, they utilize LINK for their price feeds, automation, and CCIP/cross-chain tooling.

LargeSnorlax

Never know why salty dogs downvote actual talk about Cryptocurrency, always the weirdest thing to see in the daily for me. DEX volume is a good indicator but on chain can easily be washed on low transaction cost chains. Plus, DEX volume is miniscule and is basically all stablecoins. Uniswap is [all stablecoins and tether gold for some reason](https://i.imgur.com/5ragetu.png) until you get to Chainlink, and that's not even close to 1% of LINK's "daily volume".

BuiltToSpinback

Did my research on LINK 5 years ago and have nothing to show for it. Doesn't mean it can't turn around but I'm not betting on it. Sold it all and put it in BTC and never looked back. Learned what I needed to from it. Good luck on your investments.

ShoeBaD

Price appreciation will become related to adoption and utility IMO. LINK token is, do your research again. I’m not against bitcoin and own some but, I don’t rely solely on price action yet. At one point BTC price action was weak too.

BuiltToSpinback

They don't have in-built mechanisms for price appreciation. Look at ETH/BTC and LINK/BTC. Down, down, down.

nugymmer

Even with fundamentals, eg ETH or LINK, they still underperform BTC long term.

nugymmer

Honestly at this point I don’t even believe that much in ETH or LINK. I think those who got in early washed their hands and loaded up on cheap BTC, leaving bagholders scratching their heads. If you own these long term you may be rewarded. You might also be f**ked, too.

713Capital

Im done with almost all alts, permanently. Bitcoin, ETH, SOL, HYPE, and LINK are my last dogs in the fight.

crypto_ad_97

Your plan is solid 👍 $20k BTC + $10k ETH with $200 monthly DCA over 10 years is a strong strategy. Most veterans win by consistency and patience, not by chasing many coins. If you want diversification: • 5–10% max in a strong alt (e.g. SOL or LINK) • Not necessary though Bottom line: BTC + ETH alone are enough for long-term success. Stay consistent and ignore hype.

re-patch

85% BTC / 10% ETH / 2.5% SOL / 2.5% LINK Buy a fix amount every 1-4 weeks no matter the price. Hold BTC/ETH for 10years+ and don’t touch it. Keep an eye on the other two over the next few years and sell if you want/have to

I can not say anything about profit since ETFs have changed the whole space and market circles. However, I have been mostly focused on long-term investments, but have some short-term ofc- REKT. Among favourite alts there are LINK- solid, fast-growing ecosystem, DIA- also a solid oracle project, AIOZ- decentralized storage, streaming, and AI compute full stack, ZEC- privacy project attracted attention lately, and OCEAN-monetize data without giving up on ownership.

LINK

Glyzzza_

Hello OP! If you’re coming from trad markets, start by studying infrastructure and cash-flow–adjacent sectors: L2s (ARB, OP), oracles/data (LINK), RWAs (ONDO), and core infra (SOL, AVAX). These behave more like platforms than hype cycles. Most experienced traders filter noise by market structure + on-chain data first, fundamentals second, and narratives last — price still leads, but on-chain helps confirm whether moves are real or just speculation.

BONERFLEX_

Not financial advice. BTC and ETH are my safest long-term bets/gambles. I like QNT, XRP, H-BAR, LINK and XLM as my high risk long term bets/gambles. There are plenty of other coins that can do well. Do your own research and don't invest anything you are not willing to loose. You will be down 5k tomorrow and up 10k the week after. It's a rollercoaster. Good luck at the casino.

coinfeeds-bot

tldr; Chainlink (LINK) has broken its 21-day moving average for the first time since summer, signaling potential upward momentum for altcoins in the next 2-3 months. Analyst Michael van de Poppe highlights this as a positive development, with historical data suggesting similar MA breaks often precede 20-50% rallies in altcoins. However, sustained growth depends on Bitcoin stabilizing above key levels, as altcoin strength remains fragile without a Bitcoin breakout. *This summary is auto generated by a bot and not meant to replace reading the original article. As always, DYOR.

MountainGrape6816

Just dumped losers ADA, DOT, ALGO, AAVE, ATOM, MANA. Needed some long term (since 2021) writeoffs for 2025 tax purposes to offset other gains. I held these way too long, because there was a lot of "don't be a paper-hands" bullying going on. Still holding POL/MATIC, LINK, AVAX, for now. These seem to still have at least some activity. They'll go in case i need more writeoffs in 2026, or if they make any kind of a comeback. But to be honest i don't have much interest in Alts any more. Anything i do, like ZCASH, will be relatively short term and I'll be quick to take profits and cut losses. I don't need any more skeletons in the closet

RastaBooties

>like VET, XLM, LINK, AVAX have all dropped to near pre-bull run prices. That's what people holding dead projects from previous cycles thought, QTUM, NEO, IOTA, EOS, XEM, all these coins were the shit back then, but they just went lower and lower and lower....

SavingsDimensions74

This is why I hold all of the above. Like you said, it’s just money rotating for the best or safest gains. Much like how a river flows to the see. Crypto right now is near rock bottom (of course there is the possibility that it falls off a cliff but I think that unlikely) so it’s a good place to buy sensible coins. What do I mean be sensible? Well utility obviously. There will be winners and losers. The two things that strike me are disrupting banking, the fees and time lag. Hence CRV, XRP & LINK The second, is probability. When I see a TikTok or an IG, my immediate reaction is whether this is real or AI. I’m kinda better on HBAR and TRAC for this. I might be totally wrong on this. Nonetheless, we are entering a new ecosystem. There will be winners and losers. Hence why I play my bets on multiple actors. I only need one to come in. Also, I’m not leveraged and also this is not financial advice

Nahh not really unfortunately. LINK‘s adoption/partnerships/technology is amazing, but the token hasn’t even come close to its former ATH and I’m not sure it ever will again… so yes, technically amazing, but constantly underperforming:/ For ETH basically everyone expected it to be around 5-10k by now and it’s been dragging along for years as well now, so not sure if I’d agree on these two

Even better when you short against the BTC ratio. Practically free money. LINK/BTC and ETH/BTC are the obvious ones. Supply BTC on Aave, borrow LINK or ETH, dump immediately for more BTC, then repeat.

I bought 1 BTC @ $10,000, sold at $100,000 - so that's a 10x. I did the 'smart' thing by diversifying it into... alt coins. CRO, KCS, XYO, LINK, This was in 2021. Basically sold my BTC at its ATH just to buy alts at their ATH, then they all -80%'d. Should have held, since some alts recovered in 2024 at least half of what they lost, but I sold to free myself of the torment of checking the charts and constant notifications of my phone. I still think about it. What I could have done with that $90,000 gain. S&P, TSFA-GIC, just hold stablecoin and wait for re-entry. To make matters worse I paid taxes on that 90k gain, but just gambled the profit all away. Fuck alts. I don't care how quickly you can turn a profit compared to BTC or trad stocks. I don't care what the charts look like. It's all a gamble,

Just another alt coin. Please just please ask me why I’m only buying BTC from here on in. My only other stack is LINK and it’s a small one. Just limiting my exposure to risks. BTC is the only one I’ll put money into it. There are too many good reasons to stick with BTC and keep it simple and easy and stress-free.

Superb_Conclusion603

I’ve decided on the following allocation for my portfolio: 35% BTC, 25% ETH, 20% BNB, 10% SOL, and 10% LINK.

Protocol_Man123

I have sold Solana a few days ago. Sold Fet also. I now have these 6 --> BTC, ETH, XRP, LINK, SUI, and HBAR.

$LINK is not a governance token.

No_Giraffe_4647

If I had to put another chunk like 4000 in crypto it would be like : 2000 BTC 1000 ETH 500 SOL 100 AVX 100 HBAR 100 XRP 100 DOT 100 LINK

nugymmer

Which one's next, LINK?

Individual_Ad_7693

LINK, ONDO & ICP. All on stake.

DaddyDontTakeNoMess

Adoption doesn’t mean price action. Look at LINK. It’s a key infrastructure token for blockchain, but the price only reached about 1/2 of last bull run.

I just wonder if it is the same for crypto market as well? If, 'yes', my plans are to buy these coins: **ADA, XRP, LINK, SOL, ETH, & BTC** When it comes to **SOL, ETH & BTC**, I cannot buy full coins but invest between 50 - 100 USDT on each coin. The above mentioned coins sound promising based on the upgrades and news.. but am new to crypto trading, so would like to know from experienced traders here to get an better understanding.. Also, if you see any other coins promising to buy based on long-term profit, please suggest with your suggestions. *I am a bot, and this action was performed automatically.

It's the end of 2025 and **big dummies still don't realize crypto doesn't have fundamentals.** But for a good laugh, lets look at ETH in a common fundamental metric. **Price-to-Sales (P/S), a Fundamental Valuation Metric** QQQ heavily weighted towards tech companies currently has P/S ratio (marketcap/revenue) of approximately 6.16 and is considered overvalued because it's much higher than it's historical average. NVDIA for perspective has a P/S of 23 because it's priced as a hyper growth tech stock whose revenue has gone from ~$10 Billion in 2020 to $130 Billion today and continues to grow. Using that same metric, compare popular cryptos which collect fee revenue and distribute them to their staking token holders and you see that **ETH is comically overvalued by fundamental metrics.** | Network | Daily Fees | Marketcap. | P/S |:-----------:|:------------:|:------------:|:------------:| | QQQ | -- | --- | 6.16X | TRON | $6.9 Million | $26 Billion | 10.4X | LINK | $164K | $8.9 Billion | 149X | ETH | $330K | $360 Billion | 3,000X ETH is a double speculative asset that historically has a 0.96 correlation coefficient to BTC. *ETH only appreciates when BTC goes on parabolic bullruns.* Otherwise like the rest of crypto, it does nothing relying entirely on BTC for any appreciation of value and then *loses 70% to 90% of its value when BTC goes into a bear market.* - Summer 2017, ETH hits ATH of $400 after BTC hits local top of $3,000 - January 2018, ETH hits ATH of $1,400 after BTC hits cycle top of $20K - May 2021, ETH hits ATH after BTC tops out in April 2021 - Nov 2021. ETH hits ATH in December after BTC tops out in November 2021 - August 2025. ETH briefly touches past 2021 ATH after BTC breaks $120K

iOCharts_

beyond btc and eth, the projects i see most often in serious long-term portfolios are SOL, LINK, AR, OP, ATOM, AVAX, AAVE and MKR. they aren’t risk-free, but they solve real problems and already have users

Glyzzza_

SOL, MATIC, ADA, LINK, AVAX, ATOM, FIL, and Arbitrum – strong fundamentals, real use cases, and long-term potential.

Valyarian

LINK, DOT, TAO, PYTH, SOL, UNISWAP, QNT, and another utility coin you deeply understand and your set for life.

ThriceHawk

LINK

ThriceHawk

LINK. Almost every major tradfi, defi, or crypto project out there relies on or uses them. Even the US government.

ThriceHawk

Have to include LINK in that list. Almost every major tradfi, defi, or crypto project in general uses them.

Your entire response to all of this is based on your own preconceived notion of what crypto does. “Nobody in their right mind” and “nothing burger” is just your way of saying “I don’t understand what this does or why it’s happening” I read the articles and am very knowledgeable beyond what I’d ever take the time to explain in a Reddit comment. You asked for proof so I gave you some. There’s hundreds of other bullish articles and future projects about the industry I could show. I’m not gonna write an essay on every article and why it’s there. Your “research” is just repeating Reddit buzzwords like “nothing burger” Is that really the best argument you can come up with? If you actually read the articles and somehow came to the conclusion that every meaningful crypto transaction will happen on a private blockchain that no one else ever touches then I really can’t help you bro. Nearly every article lists a currently publicly tradable blockchain you can buy today. For example you asked “who’s accepting large payments in crypto” and then immediately dismissed PayPal because it’s using stablecoins that’s literally what people will accept large payments with dummy DOVU is a crypto project built on Hedera by the way. it solves one of the hardest real world problems which is verifiable ecological credits tracked on a blockchain with an immutable audit trail. Europe is literally creating a massive use case needed starting next year https://www.akingump.com/en/insights/alerts/eu-carbon-border-adjustment-mechanism-financial-obligations-commence-amid-proposed-scope-expansion-to-include-new-downstream-products Tokenization is the future of the world you and I probably agree that 99 percent of crypto projects are complete shit but the 1 percent that provide real government compliance like MiCA and other legal frameworks will produce actual winners that you’ll see in a few years. Yes some systems will go private but the tokenized RWA industry is projected to grow so large that there will be room for both institutions and public crypto infrastructure like ETH and LINK and Hbar (fixed fraction of a cent transaction fees with next to no energy usage) If you think everything ends up private and isolated you’re missing the scale of what’s being built

Randomized007

I'm 50% btc, 15% eth, the rest are SUI, XRP, SOL, LINK, AVAX, QNT, ONDO & HBAR

>Where does the fundamental value of BTC come from as opposed to any other digital asset? Everyone talks about decentralization, consensus, etc, but those are properties of blockchain and not the specific BTC asset. You could accomplish the exact same thing with ETH, XRP, LINK, DOGE, etc - the value proposition I feel lies in the blockchain architecture and not the specific coin being used in a blockchain fashion If bitcoin(the asset) only exists on Bitcoin(the network) then it inherits those properties. BTC mostly is digital gold because it was first successful crypto, this allowed the network to grow and strengthen. If any other crypto was the first and especially if it was PoW, it would probably be digital gold instead. >Is it simply the capped supply of 21M tokens (I think) making it deflationary? Tokenomics are a factor, that controls supply, but without demand it's moot. >Why can't I just create a new coin XYZ that is also deflationary? Like previously mentioned, this solves for the supply, but without any other beneficial properties, there will not be any demand for it. >Why won't that have the same potential to be digital gold? Because no other coin will have as mature of a network securing it combined with a supply that's only slowly releasing and hard capped, combined with a supportive community who is resistant to change to BTC. I think ETH could be considered digital gold as well, the supply isn't capped but burn mechanics mean the supply won't grow out of control and will even deflate in some conditions, but ultimately it has demand without that narrative. >What makes the prices move? There is no definitive answer because it's an everchanging mix of factors and there are *some* fundamentals. Mostly it's just signs of increased adoption spurring buying but there are also macro factors, like being a hedge to fiat/money printing so you hold more BTC than your local currency. Or you're trading stocks but you feel the stock market is temporarily overvalued so you rotate into BTC. And then legislation is a big factor that will spur or hinder adoption and subsequently move the price.
