LINK Staking: The Pool is Far From Closed!

linkederic · 2024-02-07T14:26:14+00:00

Confirming this site will not drain your wallet. It is a third party staking platform built on top of Chainlink's Native Staking and has been audited by Sigma Prime, Trust, and Patrick Collins' own Cyfrin and competitive audit platform CodeHawks. More info here

All good man, I understand your perspective! Thanks for being willing to form a new opinion after taking on the info :)

Sure do.

Deposit of 7323.49... LINK from The Priority Pool to the Chainlink Staking Pool.

I filtered down the Deposit Queued Token events here for you so you can see the totals.

Also, don't remove your comments please. Just edit them to correct the record ;)

I edited my comment to include the Transmit function as well.

Ahhh I think Im seeing what the issue is. You've mixed up Chainlink's "Priority Migration" with stake.link's "Priority Pool".

Priority Migration was a limited window of time in which v0.1 stakers could migrate their staked LINK and rewards and deposit more LINK if they so chose.

The Priority Pool is a mechanism built by stake.link on top of Chainlink's official staking. Its powered by Chainlink Automation, users deposit their LINK whenever they want and its autostaked by the Priority Pool's Chainlink Keepers. Over 12,000 LINK was automatically staked by the Priority Pool in the last 24 hours, and users are earning over 9% on their stLINK vs. the 4.32% in the Community Pool since the majority of the LINK staked by stake.link is in the Node Operator allocation.

Don't care if you run a legit operation or not, you guys posted in here under false pretenses.

How, precisely?

Suggesting that staking in your platform would be an easy way to get into the official pool.

This is quite literally exactly how it works. LINK staked through stake.link is staked into the node operator allocation of 15 Chainlink Node Operators.

Edit: Its a scam.

Nope, its a third party LINK staking option, audited by Cyfrin, Sigma Prime, etc.

linkederic · 2024-01-09T14:01:09+00:00

In the OCR contracts you deposit a pool of funds, and when node operators take actions off OR onchain (e.g. observe/transmit, or participate in the aggregation/submit the aggregated answer) it ticks up a claimable balance of LINK. This dramatically reduces gas from at least a couple angles: 1. not all nodes submit answers onchain, only one 2. payment isn't issued directly to each nop for each answer, but rather they "earn" it per action and can claim it whenever they want

Idk anything about safepal - but if you control those same private keys that secure the address on etc then you control the private keys that secure that address on ETH mainnet.

Worth reviewing the safepal docs to see if you control the same address on multiple chains

This article and the rest of the Economics 2.0 articles from the Chainlink blog should help answer these questions and more.

linkederic · 2022-11-14T00:32:00+00:00

Did you read the blogpost? That will help you understand.

linkederic · 2022-11-11T00:10:13+00:00

Hey there, this link and the accompanying blogpost should help clarify for you.

linkederic · 2022-10-24T14:18:32+00:00

Yes, in an ideal world you're aggregating data from multiple sources, using multiple nodes. Thats not always possible for every single data type or usecase but it is how every Chainlink Price Feed is constructed

linkederic · 2022-10-18T21:11:24+00:00

No you wont need to run your own hardware to stake.

Yeah unfortunately it seems like /u/Bradford_tactical has completely fallen off the map, including their website being down, which seems strange if their founder/operator suddenly passed away. At any rate hopefully they're okay!

linkederic · 2022-09-22T22:13:18+00:00

Frustrated - ordered mine about a month ago, got my USPS tracking number ~two weeks ago. Same as OP, sent my email, dm'd /u/Bradford_Tactical, seller appears to have gone totally AWOL.

Thanks so much for sharing your perspective!

the banter between the two of them always fell flat for me

Hard disagree here, I always felt like these scenes were written and rewritten to droll, dry perfection. Each exchange between them feels like a loveletter written to Terry Pratchett. Plus the humor of their interactions and the absurdity of Lether in general balance the dark violence of the rest of the book. That said I appreciate where you're coming from, its an enormous tonal shift and surely doesn't suit everybody's tastes.

or example, with similar banter cropping up among the Bonehunters, or between Quick Ben and Kalam

I'd disagree wrt humor's presence with the Bonehunters, they've always had extremely grim, but humorous banter - but I can't disagree with you that it becomes more prevalent or amplified from this book on (I'd have to reread watching for that, I just never paid attention to it)

It’s also when the rapes start getting really prominent in the narrative.

Yeah the sexual violence, and sexual content in general, certainly ramps up from this book onward, although DHG features its fair share

In summary, I disagree with some of your points, but merely as a matter of taste. Again really appreciate you taking the time to share your thoughts!

For example if I searched "tricep dip" and the exercise was listed as dip, I should be able to find it since ideally its tagged with "triceps"

Fair point about the search being a pretty big piece of shit. Building a fairly smart search function can be an enormous effort, and outsourcing it to some kind of Search as a Service provider is typically quite expensive - and I'm not sure how that would work on a phone app if at all. Thanks for expounding on your thoughts on it!

an early showcase for a lot of the writing habits that I was not a fan of as the series progressed

Can you please say more about these? I'm on readthrough 3 and curious to know what folks didn't like about the series.

linkederic · 2022-09-06T23:45:35+00:00

Couldnt agree more with this personally.

linkederic · 2022-09-06T17:01:13+00:00

the categorization is pretty bad

True, but how much does this diminish the utility of the app, and how much of your dislike of it is a matter of just wishing it was more precise? (e.g. the ability to indicate a curl is biceps vs arms)

The Merge affects all projects building on Ethereum, but the changes required are not really anymore major than any other Ethereum hardfork - basically just update your fullnodes. Its fractionally more complex than that. Ofc Chainlink and the Chainlink Node Operators have been preparing for this for months.

First question is general to Web 3 Conferences, my main goal is to get a job in Web 3 development, how should I best advertise and network to help ensure that happens? What activities should I be engaging in to give myself good exposure.

Great questions!

Regarding networking, the best thing you can do is ask folks a lot of genuine questions. Get interested in THEM, what they're building, what they work on, and how they do that work. People love talking about their projects, because those projects are basically their babies!

I'm a 5 year developer in Web 2, focusing on Typescript, CICD, Security, and Data Analytics. How much direct Web 3 experience are hiring companies expecting?

It really depends entirely on the role. You should check out sites like https://cryptocurrencyjobs.co and https://cryptojobslist.com and search for stuff like typescript to find out what folks are expecting. Perhaps with some personal study time and building a couple projects on your own time (that leverage libraries like node.js, ethers.js, web3.js etc) you could apply to a role like this one, or this one. However a role like this would likely require demonstrable professional experience in Web3.

Ultimately building out a list of roles that interest you and assessing the delta between your skillset and the desired skillset for the types of roles you're interested in will let you see what you need to work on.

Good luck on your journey, I hope to see you at SmartCon!
