An underrated attribute of Chainlink LINK is that there is no toxic VC influence so common in our industry Unlike some competitors, there is no conflicts of interests whereby VCs force their portfolio companies to integrate a portfolio protocol as part of the deal or under the threat of pulling funding Companies choose Chainlink because it’s the best solution, not because they’re forced to by their VC overlords The quality of the product speaks for itself, not dangling money over the heads of devs
