Next project to kill Chainlink and IC for ecample is ModeFi. And you can make x1000.
Why would anyone who loves crypto and who wants to see a better world trust projects that made their owners rich and lazy? If you want to be in a good, hungry project that can still change the world be in Bitcoin (since its not owned by single people like the rest of the top100 crypto), or buy crypto that is still only $5m or even less market cap like Modefi.
I got x100 on Chainlink which I bought in 2018. Because I learnt from early ETH buyers who got eth for $0.25 and got rich like mmcrypto and themoon (they mainly got rich with affiliate commissions tho), however anyone who bought ETH at $0.25 trusted an unknown, small, tiny project that was not established yet (like Modefi and others now) and got rewarded. But why did people go in ETH early? Simply because they learnt it from the early Bitcoin investors who got Bitcoin or $0.20.
Now you need other early projects that are still small to become financially independant and free and to revolutionize the world. Not the big ones. The big ones keep everyone poor. They crash by 95% in bear markets for a reason. Do you not want x500 or x1000? How can eth possibly ever go x1000 again?
Learn from the early crypto people who trusted early projects and got rewarded. You just need to find the good projects (modefi over 1 million lines of code, self-funded), the good teams, the crazy and creative teams, the guys who will make the world a better place and help replace banks, mainstream media and centralized social networks.
