What is Internet Computer (ICP)?
Internet Computer (ICP) is a layer-1 protocol that is developing a decentralized public network for smart contracts to run at scale. The project aims to be the internet computer, providing the functionality of a public internet, and allowing backend software to be hosted on the network. ICP is the native utility token of the Internet Computer and is used for protocol governance and network transactions.
Please ensure that you undertake sufficient risk assessment when trading newly listed tokens, as they are often subject to high price volatility.
ICP Listing Fee: 0 BNB.
Path to Genesis
Mercury is the last of the five milestones leading up to the public launch of the Internet Computer, when the network will spin out as part of the public internet.
On December 18, 2020, as part of the Mercury milestone, the Internet Computer's Alpha Mainnet was created. The network is hosted on special “node machines” owned and operated by independent parties, and run from independent data centers around the world, that have been placed under the control of the Network Nervous System (NNS). The Internet Computer is now on a relatively short path to a final “Genesis Unlock” decentralization step. This will release ICP governance tokens, and result in the creation of large numbers of new "voting neurons" that control the NNS and thus the entire network. In order for the NNS to trigger Genesis Unlock, numerous technical and operational gates must be passed.
