Message: [QUOTE="uconntoatl, post: 3864105, member: 6672"] Haha buying link under 100 is never a bad idea. Essentially, node operators/oracles that provide real world data (price feeds most popular right now) have to report on chain which cost ethereum gas fees( which are outrageously expensive right now) as eth has scaling issues. This problem means oracles have to sell the link they earn for eth for the gas/,maintenance fees. However, off-chain reporting eases those cost by 90% further incentivising future oracle creation and reducing current oracle operators from selling their link for eth gas fees. ~"Deutsche Telekom AG, Europe’s largest telecommunications company by revenue, is now one of the main data providers to Chainlink – the omnipresent oracle service on which decentralized finance (DeFi) relies." This will be huge for companies operating oracles on chainlink. Enjoy the ride up [/QUOTE]
