I never did buy Chainlink. Came close a while ago, but added Polygon to my portfolio instead. In all honesty though, hard to go wrong by not just buying Ethereum. You're actually buying into the majority of DeFi when you think of it. Sort of like an S&P ETF. And you can get staking dividends to boot.
