There seems to be a lot of confusion on what a suicide stack up and a make it stack is these days, so allow me to explain.

Back in 2017, when a single link's price was about 0.15 to 0.40, there were two categories of linkies on Zig Forums : the one who believed in link 100%, and the one who weren't sure it would actually rise that much.

At the time there was a sorry from reddit of someone's brother who committed suicide because be knew about bitcoin from almost the start but didn't mine it nor bought it when it was cheap. Seeing it rise to 10k+ was too much for him.
At the time also, the consensus was that to make it with bitcoin, you needed 21 btc, because that was 1/1.000.000 of total supply, meaning that there can never be more than 999.999 person in the whole universe with more btc than you.

So the reasoning of the linkies who where not sure about link was that since you're not sure, you can't put all your money into link. But since you don't want to kys like this reddit brother, you need a stack big enough that you're doing ok if link goes to the moon.

Hence the birth of the suicide stack meme. Imagine buying 21 btc for 10 dollars a coin. Sure you'll be frustrated to not have more, but you're part of the 21 bitcoin club, nothing to kill yourself over.
So by the same reasoning, buying 1000 link (1/1.000.000 of rotal supply) for the cheap price or 150-400 dollars would put you in the same situation.

So that mean two things : that the suicide stack isn't necessarily not a make it stack since at the time the term was coined the idea was that it might be enough to make it ; and that the idea of a 1000 link suicide stack doesn't make sense in 2020 when it cost 14k.
It also doesn't make as much sense now since the notion of a suicide stack implies that you're unsure about link. Now that link has been confirmed leader of the DeFi bubble it's not just some crypto you throw dollars at just in case, it's a legit investment, if you learned about it just now and it does a x100 again you're not going to kys just because you didn't bought 3 years ago, just like if you learn about bitcoin in 2017 you're not going to kys just for not buying in 2011.

So my conclusion to nulinkers is that a "suicide stack" is any number you're comfortable investing and maybe losing right now, don't let oldfags and larpers make you insecure about your stack, most of them were in a similar situation with btc and eth a few years ago, priced out of a significant amount.
Invest what you're comfy with and keep your eyes open for the next gem.

Bump

I have 100k link which is nowhere near enough to actually make it

Holy linklet cope. If you don't have 10k link right now you're not going to make it.

Op this is surprisingly well-reasoned. You’re right, a suicide stack isn’t just about getting a particular amount, it’s about when you knew about this particular investment. Nulinkers shouldn’t be too upset and just build their stacks, the same way I’ve bought BTC from 4K to 17k and back building my stack.

Good thing this thread is about suicide stacks and not make-it stacks, which are 10k.

I've been here since 2017. I distinctly remember people telling doubters of link to "at least get a 1000 linkie suicide stack". they wouldn't tell people who were doubtful to get 10k, as even then, that was a good chunk of money that some bloke wasn't going to blow on a speculative investment he didn't believe in.

at some point along the way, it started getting memed by newfags that 10k is the suicide stack. i don't know why, but it's probably because they want to make people feel bad for missing out (as they did).

is link going to dip or should i buy in now?

You have 45 minutes left

So what's the new suicide stack? 300?

Fuck you IDF

Understanding these rankings in terms of percentage owned of total supply of coins has always made sense to me as well.
So in terms of Lition, which will have a max supply of 100,500,000 after all unlocks and burns are complete:
Suicide stack (1/1mil): 100.5 LITs
Comfy (1/100k): 1k LITs
Make it (1/10k): 10k LITs
I do the maths and set a goal for “comfy” level for each of my investments, personally.

Make it stacks are a more complex question. While the notion of suicide stack is mainly psychological, ie how much do you need to feel good IF chainlink succeed, the notion of make it stack is a question of prediction.

Where is link headed? What amount of money you need to consider that you have made it?

Let's say 10 million is what you would call having made it. And let's say the absolute top of link is somewhere betwin $500 and $1500. In this situation indeed 1000 LINK isn't enough to make it, a make it stack would be about 10k LINK, more or less.

But what if the absolute top is $5000 per link, and that for you "only" 5 million is enough to have made it? Then 1000 LINK would be a make it stack.

Now do keep in mind that the age of the holder is very important to consider. In my opinion for exemple, a 25 years old with 2 millions in his hands is closer to having made it than a 50 years old with 10 millions, because the first have the luxury of time, youth and opportunities.

But basically Zig Forums consensus is contradictory when it comes to make it stack and price prediction.
If 1k EOY is FUD, then you will be able to make it with less than a 10k stack.
If 10k is the bare minimum to make it, then 1k EOY is the absolute top at best (good luck to time it) a pipedream at worse.

If you plan to hold longterm take half of the money you're willing to invest and DCA, then keep the other half on the side in the eventuality of a dump.

cheers user, good post

What if I would just never kill myself? Regardless if I didn’t buy link btc/link or whatever

As I said does it make sense to even talk about a suicide stack these days? Link is a legitimate asset to invest in not just a promising vaporware like it used to be.

But to entertain the idea, taking into account that a suicide stack needs to be a nice round number and to be cheap enough that you can afford to lose the money you invest, I would say 100 link, that would be my aim if I was a nulinker new to crypto.
That's 1300 dollars right now, so way more expensive than what we called a suicide stack back then, but since link is also a way safer bet right now I'd say that it's fair.

That's too take in the metaphorical sense, most people won't kill themselves of they missed a once in a lifetime opportunity of easy to obtain financial freedom, but they'd still feel pretty bad about it.

fantastic post

i don't understand why you used so much space for so little information

This.

Thanks for the (you) m8

This. Lition is designed to reach $100+. Lition supply is playing in the League of XMR, NEO, LTC in term of potential market cap.

Checked. The sevens have spoken.

Why feel bad about the past? You can’t change it anyway?

In a darwinian perspective it make sense that your neurochemestry punishes you for missed opportunities so that you don't make the same mistakes in the future, hence why you feel bad.
You'll feel more or less bad depending on your genetic profile and your personal life philosophy but it's almost certain you'll feel some amount of regrets.
If you don't good on you I guess to have low neuroticism but that can be an handicap too, fear of bad emotions is a powerful drive for humans.

>worth $1.3MM
>probably would be worth hundreds of millions when staking is operational and half the token are burned
If true you've pretty much already made it

I f00kin 8 all these fuarkin scrubs that pay NO FUUKIN REPSEC
The original suicide stack was 25k, shortly reduced to 10k, and you can all go fuck yourselves.

I've been on Zig Forums since January 2019 and I've been desperately trying to get a 5k stack since then. I have 4k at 21 years old. I think Link's top this cycle will be $2600, because it logically will be at least twice as important as Ethereum was last run. Considering the manic nature of bull runs with new money, and considering a large portion of supply locked up in staking, I'd be able to sell 2500 Link and have $3.9m after taxes, holding/staking the other 2500 forever. 10k is the fuck you money make it stack. 1k is a suicide stack. Anything in between seems like a comfortable medium for those late to the game and willing to hold 4 more years minimum.
