Yeah I'll bump this.

Link has a real token use and actually does solve a huge problem. The sky is the limit on this token. SWIFT wants to implement their oracle solution as soon as possible... main net will go live later in Q4 2017. Fidelity (financial firm that manages over $2 Trillion in assets) is also one of the 5 companies that used Chainlink during the testing phase (testnet).

But I'm not here to give you all of the details. What I've stated above is just a small and general glimpse in to the future of Chainlink.
