All of it is false
1) anybody can run their own node and anyone can create their own oracle network choosing whatever nodes they want, Chainlink is a framework,
feeds.chain.link are just one set of networks bootstrapped and subsidized by the team
2) Black Thursday wasn't great but pretty much half of DeFi and all other decentralized oracles broke, projects like Aave were unaffected, there was a bug in the gas price updater in the core node software which was been essentially replaced now, this is a black swan like Ethereum Shanghai DOS attacks, you only come out stronger
3) partnerships is a meme, what matters is integrations, integrating and building with and on Chainlink netoworks is permissionless, don't need to pay just use chainlink for skemthing cool
4) distribution is 38% circulating, 27% is held by the team for development, and 35% is reserved for nodes, it's always been that since 2017, not a Pump and dump, and they team doesn't manipulate the market, they're funding networks and growing adoption, it's already at 200+ in the pipeline
5) they are not nothing, Google is a data provider, the Google Cloud team helped build a BugQuery external adapter so any chainlink node can now use Google services, Google is very much on the
chain.link website, SWIFT is still very much on
SmartContract.com website with the Sibos presentation linked, Chainlink's work with SWIFT is gpiLINK, connecting SWIFT GPI to blockchains, Gartner was a research report, they never said they were a partner
The report also said Chainlink was only on testnet, the Coinbase signed data source API is a LINK killer, that the addressable market is only $300M when it's already securing much more than that, and so many more lies
Again that piece was falsehood after falsehood, it was solely designed to get you to fuel their short position that they stated they already had, the firm is fraudulent and never published anything else before, it was a disinformation piece
It's a Gish gallop, where they throw a wave of misinfo that takes longer to debunk than it does to write
Don't mean to go off lol, way too much info for a telegram, but please do your own research and don't fall for stuff like this
