LINK

Due-Candy-8929

Alt season isn’t over yet - just getting to the exciting part of it… ETH is set to go soon, XRP as well… expecting big things across SOL XLM HBAR LINK SUI ALGO ADA FLR… expecting volatility, price discovery and some new all time highs 🙌🏼✨

Due-Candy-8929

A big part of the issue is the SEC doesn’t have clear guidelines and regulations at all - utility-based projects like XRP / ALGO / ADA / SOL / SUI / LINK all benefit from rules - it seems like they are looking towards different categorisations as well (memes / NFTS as collectibles) companies like tether have had a free pass, even though they can't pass an audit - SEC did nothing to stop FTX crash… XRP was ruled not a security by a federal judge, and this part of the case is not being challenged. Choke point II involved debunking projects related to crypto and trying to freeze them, or the case against Coinbase Better and clearer regulations mean governments/institutions/banks can buy in with better safeguards…. The US is woefully behind the rest of the world when it comes to digital payments and crypto regulations (look at MICA… Tether was delisted in Europe because it’s not up to code)… one of my friends who works high up in a vast US-based tech company was telling me when they visited that the pay system here in Australia is more advanced - banks in the Philippines are even working with HBAR to trial new technology (as it’s cheaper to do trial tests there than in the US)

TRUMP is gonna overtake LINK unfortunately

watch-nerd

Here me out: To fit their logo of a ring, and to capture the juvenile humor degen market, $LINK should rebrand as: $SPHINCTER

morganpriest

LINK is not an L1 mate

enfj4life

LINK is the one. And maybe DOGE, because as long as crypto is around, it'll always be the OG and #1 memecoin. Otherwise, i'd only get BTC. SUI is super hyped by Reddit, but so was ALGO, so I'd just stick to BTC, LINK, and DOGE.

Rent_South

I've heard of LINK for sure. I just didn't study it enough at all.

EntrepreneurLife9883

I know it!!! 👋👋 Buy LINK, ADA, DOT, VET and ATOM.  THanks 👋👋

Uther-Lightbringer

Here Lies "Better Coins Will Dominate" ADA, POLK, ETC, LINK, Etc etc. The list of other smart contracts platforms who had "better tech" that have failed to ever come close to capturing ETHs market share and usage is very long. The list of decentralized smart contracts platforms to overtake ETH is the same list as "Crypto currencies worth $1,000,000 per coin"...*hint, the list is empty* This is the same fallacy that has led to people looking for the next BTC forever too. BTC as a technology is shit, it's slow, it's expensive, the mining costs alone are positively insane, let alone the environmental impact. And yet, no coin holds a CANDLE to BTC. Face facts, were probably still another 5-10 years at a minimum before things like technology actually start to matter.

apstl88

BTC - Because it's a master of everything OCEAN - Because it's best data-oriented AI project and because it never let me down WILD - The best multiplayer metaverse that relies on photo-realism, AI and blockchain tech SOL - Because the memes are the hottest narrative and Solana is their safehouse LINK - Nothing would be the same without oracles and what's best than LINK, really?

redubshank

As far as safe long term I would put them in this order: 1. BTC 2. ETH 3. XRP 4. SOL 5. DOGE BTC is the safest and ETH is fairly established so comes up second. XRP because it has real world use case and a company behind it pushing for adoption. DOGE is in last because it's just a meme coin. My highest ROI was with DOGE but it's longevity depends on both Musk tweeting about it and people who don't realize DOGE has no use beyond memes. If you swapped out SOL for LINK that is basically my portfolio.

reben002

LINK going up!! 🙌

---OZ--

XRP HBAR AVAX LINK XDC XLM ALGO ETH BTC Don't touch shitty meme coins. Hold long term and DCA

ThriceHawk

BTC, ETH, and LINK are the safest long-term bets. Those should be the base on any portfolio. Then you can start playing around with HBAR, AVAX, AAVE, etc. from there if you want additional exposure and can handle it.

Unfair_Ad_2129

LINK. You’re welcome

kirtash93

LINK loves this comment. 

TheShtoiv

HBAR, LINK seems to be frequently mentioned in this run.

Sheeple9001

Inverse CC, time to sell LINK

kirtash93

Advice: Don't sleep on LINK. It is so undervalued. 

oak1337

HBAR checks all the boxes. It is the only coin I invest in. A coin that doesn't check all the boxes, but will likely be OK long term, is BTC. LINK is another coin that may not check all those boxes, it is a different category, since it's an Oracle. I think it'll be fine long term as well. I wouldn't touch the rest of the coins out there with a ten foot pole.

Masato_Fujiwara

Yeah I think LINK is a must and seeing how it resisted the last drop, I'm very bullish

Toblakai1979

I'm putting my money on good projects like VET and LINK. I'm holding on to some reddit MOONs as my meme coin moonshot too.

red224

The entire ecosystem depends on LINK. It should be a no brainer. BTC / LINK / ETH is the order that makes sense to me.

dataCollector42069

I feel the two coins I will regret not holding is SUI and LINK if alt season actually happens. Holdings DOGE, SOL, ONDO, MOON

galaxyheater

What are you talking about? I bought one LINK a few minutes ago and I'm already up 20c. Massive profits that I will ride back to hell by stupidly holding forever.

ewdietpepsi

My LINK looking at me from my trezor wondering when it gets more.

Intrepid_Upstairs243

Since we’re just out here shilling look at these. Safebets:ADA,ALGO,LINK,XLM,QNT Riskierbets: XYO and ANKR XYO is my favorite. Very interesting concept and is front running the space of geospatial data. A lot of real use use cases.

thursdayjunglist

I'm willing to lose the $1000 I already invested plus another grand. I'm in $100 each on ADA, AVAX, BTC, DOGE, ETH, HBAR, LINK, UNI, XLM, and XRP. I already have some Solana (nice profit), BTC, and Shib from before. Any of these you would advise against doubling down on, or swap for a different coin?

Time-Relation-4715

Terrible advice if you like fiat. I was a XMR maxi until 2022, If I never swapped in 2022 I would be up about 8% right now. Instead I went 5x on HBAR, 4x on LINK and 6x on SOL. Regulations killed any major price action for XMR and you could see it coming from a mile away. Use it and keep a small stash for a rainy day, please don't turn it into an investment.

pilatesfarter

They’ve trialed with LINK. But that’s not appealing as a solution to big banks as they’re not regulated or compliant with iso20025

FL_Squirtle

It's laughable how little people are jumping on the LINK train. They've been chosen as the standard and all of TradFi will connect to blockchain through Chainlink. Euroclear processes the equivalent of the world's GDP on a daily basis and that's all coming on chain through LINK. That's only one of the MANY partnerships that are just as massive. LINK will be the best investment of the next 10 years next to BTC. It'll flip ETH and be top 3 mcap with a trillion+ cap by 2026.

kingjoeg

LINK is doing so well this cycle. I'm glad I held onto my bag

igoldring

LINK is getting close to overtaking AVAX 😶‍🌫️

yokmubenisiken

And the ones that did actually make new ATHs this year are the ones this sub loves to shit on. SOL, BNB, TRON. All the love affairs; ETH, ADA, LINK, DOT etc are miserable.

EdCP

Look I've been in this space for 9 years, I don't want to dox myself, but working with Chainlink and using their oracles. We 1000% trust Chainlink. But their token marketing/utility sucks for bull-runs. In the bull runs everything is overpriced - everything but LINK. The thread is about the alts performance, and I don't believe the r/r ratio on LINK is worth it.

ThriceHawk

I wouldn't remove either, but honestly I'd remove ETH before LINK. The largest financial institutions, SWIFT, etc. are all using Chainlink to be able to connect to any chain. Whether they use ETH, AVAX, XRP, etc... they'll still always be using LINK. Crypto is massively dependent on DON's and there isn't another coming close to Chainlink so far.

cdbriggs

If you're suggesting ETH, you're supporting decentralized finance and smart contracts. LiNK is the literal leader in getting data to the blockchain, which is essential in smart contract success. So what's wrong with LINK?

cdbriggs

The token's performance in terms of value is quite literally not important right now lol. The concept of LINK will be realized when decentralized fiancne and smart contracts are common place. At that time, LINK'S performance will be insane as the demand for real world data on the blockchain will be satisfied through LINK fees.

Overloader6

This, without the LINK

ThriceHawk

DCA into BTC, ETH, and LINK. Then forget about it for that 5-10 years.

TTHODLIFER

Give me a comparison. If you bought XRP and LINK on the exact same date somewhere in March, With XRP at its current price you only be a little more than a 2x, if you bought link you pushing 5x? So which one is underperforming?

DHalps2323

IMO, I think that BTC is going to go back up soon. See the $100k mark as more of a psychological number. Then the hype train with talks of US Strategic BTC Reserve (SBR) and European Union talking SBR, plus states like Ohio, Texas, Pennsylvania, etc talking SBR... Many took distributions and profits when it reached ATH levels. Then the rate cuts went the other way as the cuts increased the value of the USD. Plus, Powell made comments saying the fed cannot not hold BTC. Overall, in many ways BTC like the stock market ebbs and flows on emotions & sentiment. What is interesting is that currently, we are at all time highs for STH (Short Term Holders) of BTC. Typically STH supply increases during bull runs and it is at an all-time high in the past 40 months (since last halving). LINK: [https://pbs.twimg.com/media/GfUp1nlbsAAyuq0?format=jpg&name=large](https://pbs.twimg.com/media/GfUp1nlbsAAyuq0?format=jpg&name=large) As far as increasing, I see a pump on/around 1/20/25 when Trump takes officially takes office, or shortly after he takes office. If not for the SBR, for the changes in regulation and the new regime that will be friendlier to crypto. Right now, for the next month I think BTC may go up and down but will not change too much. The BTC Power Law chart puts BTC at about $99,400 on the linear progression line, so we are not that far off from that... I see support levels at $98k, $95k, $91k... Did a quick Fib retracement chart over past 3-6 months and key levels look to be around $97k then $89,900 then around $84k. What I mean by "key levels" is if the market drops strongly then most likely these are the next levels/amounts that it will go to (ex: if see a big drop from $97k then $90k is most likely next level). I really do not see it dropping below $90k... If it does then it could go down to about $84-85k but I really do not see that right now... I could be wrong though as I am not an expert. There's a very interesting chart I saw that overlays the past BTC cycles on top of one another. It is interesting to see how each BTC cycle is fairly similar...

Kingly92

LINK, SUPER, AERO, ONDO, FET Have exposure to the Base narrative, blue chip alt, RWA narrative, AI and gaming

FL_Squirtle

Yes the token is needed. It's the universal gas token. Also the CCIP contract for Chainlink buys LINK with all the transaction fees in the network.

Advanced-Zebra-7454

HBAR and SUI are definitely worth a look. LINK is a very solid project. ICP has built some powerful, versatile tech. Definitely solid. SOL has a big future. It’s not just a Meme casino.

TTHODLIFER

The fact no one has said Chainlink($LINK) is disappointing because it really the only correct answer.

Past_Friendship2071

I dipped my toes in a few LINK, I have some XRP, I mined for years XYO which I have strong hopes for. Got some HBAR and some Doge for the lulz. I'm focusing on HBAR, LINK and XRP for now 👍

Appropriate-Grisham

Let me still my bags please: $LINK.

z-a-c-h--

half my portfolio (as of now) is BTC while the rest is divided semi equally between 11 others (Solana, Doge, Shibu, AVA, XRP, LINK, TON, and a few more) I’ve got weekly buys of BTC on and I try to buy the rest every here and there when they dip. Still fairly new.

SplooshTiger

You could take on crazy high risk and swing for the fences with a bunch of small alts and maybe have 80% of them do nothing and 20% do something, or you could go for established mid-sized alts that may still 2-3x this cycle - LINK, AVAX, DOT, RENDER, FIL, maybe a more serious bigger AI project like FET, and sleep fairly easy

jventura1110

Wtf is wrong with LINK holders lmao

B12Washingbeard

There’s so much being developed in the business world on ETH and LINK and all anyone gives a shit about is Bitcoin 

TexasBoyz-713

Well in the last 3 months XRP nearly 4x’ed, DOGE ADA 3x, LINK 2x.. Crypto moves fast, trends are short lived, hype is fleeting just gotta be on and off the train at the right time with alts.

Mom_said_I_am_cute

I am investing. I wait for dips on specific stuff and have limit orders. I am buying Bitcoin, XRP, Cardano and am eyeing Chainlink lately, but I am not sure about LINK yet, might buy, but not so sure yet.

Pretenderinchief

Yeah. I didn’t a 30x on WIF. I did a 25x on SOL. I did a 40x on LINK. Bitcoin is my retirement portfolio, tucked away gaining over decades. People here in CC are gamblers and love to play with various alts, people like you don’t understand that. Always maxis coming in here like they have the “secret”. lol.

Puzzleheaded_Air9255

Good Day to buy some $SOL & $LINK Nice dip

Ok-Western-5799

Still stacking! Got SUI on deck, SUPRA picking up some serious momentum, and LINK doing its thing.

C-Dull

Still bullish as ever on LINK, I think it’s one of the few alts left that’ll touch ATH again

Ok-Western-5799

SUI is definitely a solid alt, no doubt. EOS brings strong fundamentals to the table, making it look like a bargain at its current price. Add SOL, KAS, and LINK to the mix, and you’ve got a lineup with serious potential

ready2freeze

BTC, ETH, XRP, GRT, OP, LINK, LDO, ARB, PYTH All on fire sale 🔥 Based on my current strat, we'll see what the coming weeks bring

Ok-Western-5799

LINK, SUPRA, XRP. I HODL, I don't sell.

Indulgent-edison

I all in ETH, SOL, and DOGE with 1.8 of D/A ratio (1.8 leverage) with an average entering price 3302, 183, and 0.2905 for my conservative funds. For my small funds, I all in PEOPLE, LINK, UNI, CRO, TRB, ADA, GALA, pretty much the other coins you could think of.

HenryHurdenEstonia

Perfect portfolio for long term a bit more risky 65% BTC 10% ETH 10% SOL 15% PYTH,FTM(now sonic), LINK Read about last ones, very high risk and reward, except LINK is more safe

PeterParkerUber

Still holding my LINK from last cycle, haven’t sold yet. Bought a lot of ERG during bear (og co-founder of LINK) But tbh am looking at getting into positions in other projects I didn’t have the cash for during bear

sakion

LINK don't sleep on it. Seriously look into it.

z-a-c-h--

Ahh okay. This is all for the long run so I have to have that will power to allow my money to work for me. I put about $100 into BTC including my original purchase, 20 into LINK and Solana then I basket’d top earners with $5 like AVA, TON, Shibbu, Eth, etc. I plan on sitting with this method for a while then buying each of my stocks during the dips and holding for the highs. Not to sure though, I still need to make extensive research

Outrageous-Leopard23

Just LINK.

Advanced-Zebra-7454

Yeah, anything is possible. Your plan is in line with mine, and so is your reasoning. I do think the early ‘25 will see more hype and bull movement, then your plan to sell 20% is very smart imo. And your reasoning for selling XRP was also good, given what you said about sleeping better. That’s key! I’ve only recently learned how to put value on my stress level. I’ve always found LINK to be quiet but solid. Well played. Stick with your plan. I’m impressed. I think XRP has further to go in the near term, and has held up well in this dip. But maybe you wait for a solid retrace and settling of the hype? Trust yourself. You’re making good choices. 👍🏼

Toblakai1979

VET & LINK are two of the best utility coins.

Django_McFly

> Historically, you would expect low-cap altcoins to have increased by 10x by now, but they remain at their lows. People were digging deep in the garbage for *outside the top 200 low cap gems* at a time when SOL was like $12 and SUI was $0.40. LINK was like $5. AVAX was $12. ETH dropped below $1k and BTC was $17k. THERE WERE EASY 5X-10X, ANON. TAKE THE EASY MONEY, ANON!!!1!

kingjoeg

Go on LINK getting a good little bounce. I think this will become a top 10 crypto in 2025

kingjoeg

Bought some LINK on this dip

EntrepreneurLife9883

Of course, LINK, ADA and ETH.

Past_Friendship2071

Mainly XYO (most of bag is mined) Then HBAR small bag XRP small bag Doge for fun (420.69 doge lol) Might add a few LINK to the mix 👍

MonkeyCryptoQueen

Added some LINK and AVAX to hodl

Ecstatic_Courage840

Everyone freaking out doesn’t seem to have memory going further back than 2 weeks. I bought more during the last dip to 91k and some LINK when it was 17. I remember being fine then too.

Possible-Local-9357

Yeah! Trying to fill my bags for a decent amount (especially HBAR) before Inauguration as they are US based - feel like it’s a good marker but after that I’m gonna drop the total investment maybe 20% and boost some cash reserves for security but also like you said for getting in on new positions if there is opportunity! I did have XRP, I bought around 100 at around $2 or so but I sold all but 21XRP mainly because the hype cycle around it is crazy 🤪 I’d be going to bed and it’s kicking off and I wasn’t getting any sleep ffs so I sold at a small profit and put it into LINK as they are fairly pricey and a lot less noise! Strong partnerships though and they sound like they are going to be an important part of the infrastructure in the future! I know it’s all unknown but are you thinking the inauguration will pump or is it gonna be a more gradual 2025 - tbh we could be seeing red for the next two years 😂 I’m ok with that though, discounts!

Status-Travel6685

LINK will be bigger next year

Advanced-Zebra-7454

Big things coming for HBAR, and LINK is simply a rock solid project. So great choices. I’d suggest giving XRP serious consideration, then SOL, SUI and ICP next. You need to feel good about the projects you’re buying though, and the price you’re getting in. It’s a great time to buy. The slide is continuing….

Advanced-Zebra-7454

Good time to buy FET. It’s a strong project. I think Beam and Aethir have great potential. Haven’t researched Flux. At some points though, you need to build up BTC. Take profits in the pumps and when the market take big falls pick up some BTC, XRP, HBAR, SOL, LINK. Keep the low caps and memes to a small percentage of your total portfolio imo. They have their place, but you have to research and find the projects you believe in.
