The crypto space has entered an era of strict regulation, with gambling and prediction projects becoming key targets of attention. Many people are worried whether WinkLink might get caught up in this as well.
But if you look closely, you'll see that this project has already paved a safe path for itself. Its core approach is technical neutrality—it doesn’t touch the gambling business itself, but only provides underlying oracle services. It’s like being the person selling shovels, not caring what others are digging for, just supplying the tools.
When a regulatory storm hits, who stands firm? It’s not those shouting the loudest slogans, but those who draw the clearest boundaries for their business. WinkLink’s positioning as infrastructure is naturally much safer than projects directly involved in high-risk businesses.
Simply put, in this round of reshuffling, the survivors are often not the most aggressive, but the ones who understand the rules best.

The "selling shovels" metaphor is brilliant; the key is to see who is really just selling shovels and who is actually mining.

The analogy of selling shovels is excellent, but to be honest, the oracle system is not entirely foolproof. It mainly depends on how regulators in different regions define it.

The logic of selling shovels is brilliant; it's definitely much more stable than playing the game directly.

The "selling shovels" analogy is spot on, but the key question is whether the regulators will accept this reasoning... Let's wait and see.

The logic of "selling shovels" sounds good, but the real fear is that even shovels themselves might end up becoming contraband... After so many cycles in history, we should have learned our lesson.

The logic of "selling shovels" sounds pretty good, but I’m still a bit skeptical... I’ve heard this kind of talk from project teams too many times, and in the end? They still get implicated all the same. If this round of regulation really comes, who can guarantee it won’t be expanded? That said, compared to those directly involved in gambling, this approach is indeed a bit more stable. Risk management awareness is definitely something worth learning.

The "selling shovels" analogy is spot on, but honestly, what if the regulators turn around and ban the shovels too? That's what I'm really thinking.
