About Chainlink

What is Chainlink?

Chainlink is a decentralised oracle network and blockchain abstraction layer that communicates off-chain data to blockchains. Its oracles securely enable computations both on and off the blockchain, supporting hybrid smart contracts and cross-chain interoperability.

The Chainlink blockchain is hosted on the Ethereum platform, which uses a proof-of-stake operating protocol. Chainlink is also an open-source blockchain project, meaning that anyone can view the project’s code and contribute.

Who Created ChainLink?

ChainLink is the product of a blockchain technology startup called smart contract, which was founded in 2014. ChainLink itself began with a white paper published by Steve Ellis, ARI juels and Sergey Nazarov in September 2017. The document outlines their vision for a decentralized Oracle network. ChainLink’s technology aims to solve one of the core challenges of smart contracts running on the blockchain – providing reliable notional data for the blockchain. The project first started to provide services for smart contracts on Ethereum, but now it has extended its services to other blockchains with smart contract capabilities.

In order to manage chainLink’s technology, another for-profit financial technology company called SmartContract Chainlink Ltd. was established, with Sergey Nazarov as CEO. The company is located in the Cayman Islands. Under chainLinklabs, a global developer and research team is further developing chainLink technology.

What is LINK and What is its Value?

Link is the native token of chainLink. The token is to help fund the development of projects, similar to Bitcoin (BTC) and Ethereum (ETH). Both cryptocurrencies work on their respective blockchains. Just as BTC and eth serve as incentives for users to mine, so does Link.

The Link token was launched in 2017 at a price of less than 20 cents and remained below $1 until 2019. In 2020, prices began to rise sharply. In fact, the price rose from less than $2 in early 2020 to a high of $36 on February 20, 2021.However, despite the meteoric rise of Link, it has fallen from a high of $36 and has not reached this level again. In fact, by March 1, 2021, the price had fallen by nearly $10.

Should you invest in LINK?

As you may have gathered from the above, although LINK has generated substantial profits since the beginning of 2020, its value remains volatile. Therefore, investing in LINK may only be worthwhile as a way to support the underlying technology. Otherwise, the high volatility may be too much for most investors to bear.

Nevertheless, as cryptocurrency continues to develop, Chainlink seems to be an important technology. Having an oracle like Chainlink will be key to the long-term stability and feasibility of the entire cryptocurrency sector. If you believe that Chainlink will become the industry standard and the most widely used decentralised oracle network, then investing in LINK may be a reasonable option.
