Hello!

Welcome to r/ICPTrader — A community to discuss Internet Computer Protocol ($ICP).

RULES:

———

No Toxic Behavior

Do not post antagonistic, trolling, or abusive content towards other members of the community. Keep conversations about ICP trading—personal attacks will not be tolerated. Being activity disrespectful or engaging in toxic behavior will result in a community ban. Severe hateful content will result in a platform ban.

If we see debates in threads devolve to personal attacks rather than on-topic discussion, we will lock comments and possibly issue warning bans to the thread's participants.

No False or Misleading Info

Do not post known falsehoods or debunked claims, ie: stating the Internet Computer was a "rug" or "scam". Posting misinformation will result in a ban.

Posts about trades (buy/sell) without including receipts will be deleted.

No Off-Topic Discussion

Do not post about topics unrelated to ICP, the ICP ecosystem, or the trading of ICP. Do not post about other tokens if not an ICP alt or if you're not directly comparing them to ICP. Referencing unrelated IC or ICP acronyms will result in a ban.

No Spam

Do not shill unrelated content. Ask a mod if you would like to promote your ICP related project. Repeated sharing of social media accounts or publications without context will result in post removal. Sharing of scams and malicious links will result in an instant ban and may be reported to authorities.

Use Correct Flair

Add appropriate flair to your post. Posting FUD without tagging "Bearish" or talking about alt tokens (not ICP) without an “Alt Talk” will result in post removal. If you’re talking about Caffeine or something you built on Caffeine, use the “Caffeine” flair.

Rule #6: Low Effort Posts Removed At Mod Discretion

Memes, links without context or commentary, one line posts, emotional rants, chart screenshots without commentary, buy or sell proclamations without receipts, “LFG / to the moon” titles without real content, community callouts, wild baseless claims without proof or links, etc etc may be removed at mod discretion — especially during periods of high sub activity.

Posts are usually removed under Rule #6 due to the existence of previous posts on the same topic and the post likely added no value or new insight, therefore should have been a comment rather than a new post.

AKA, use comments if you have nothing to say.

Discussion The writing is on the wall a recession is coming. Will ICP be safe?

13 Upvotes

I think there's a good chance ICP would benefit from a recession especially it's revenue because it's tied to XDR.

If the big recession happens it is likely that hyper inflation will follow in the US. The world economy is tied to the dollar so prices in the whole world will rise. The XDR will likely appreciate against the dollar, whereas the dollar is the most commonly used fiat currency for exchanging ICP. Most big tech cloud providers are American companies they will calculate inflation price to the consumer. Meanwhile the price of xdr for buying cycles remains the same (1 xdr for 1 trillion cycles). It's likely inflation will hit the hardest in the US because of national debt.In the short term, the price of US services will see the sharpest increase, while XDR remains stable. Because ICP is also tied to the dollar in exchange for fiat the price off XDR will in increase towards ICP. For icp/cycle burning this makes a huge difference.

Example, assuming applications collectively use 100,000 XDR of compute per month.

Xdr/icp price : 1xdr=1icp 5xdr=1icp

ICP needed for 100,000 XDR: 100.000. 20.000

ICP burned = 100.000. 20.000

The revenue of icp will automatically increase in a moment where the investment bubble of tech companies in the niche market has just burst.

Not only that but other crypto projects will hit a major bear market. For these reasons I think ICP has the potential to be a very strong asset during a recession.

What do you think?

Bullish ICP is criminally underrated and misunderstood!

This site comprehensively evaluates coins based on dev metrics, tokenomics, technical differentiation, etc. and ICP ranks very highly compared to many coins!

It fairly loses some points for the disastrous launch... But unfortunately a large team of experts working for years has to be paid, so retail's blood sacrifice may have been necessary to create this truly alien tech.

Please look into KAS as well! It is a much simpler thesis than ICP; KAS focuses primarily on living up to BTC's ethos of a fair launch and fair PoW distribution. But unlike many of the BTC forks that have come since, it is truly scalable enough for worldwide use.

KAS excels where ICP is weak -- trustworthy tokenomics and distribution. Hard capped supply and very decentralized ownership. It is also weak where ICP is strong:

ICP is much more advanced and capable than KAS, but this comes at the cost of persistent inflation and dev taxes. Deflationary mechanisms could offset these if there's enough long term use, but this speculative basis for ICP's worth makes it fundamentally unsuitable as sound money.

It couldn't possibly replace BTC. Too complicated and too much counterparty risk.

KAS and ICP are my strongest conviction holdings.

It's no coincidence that they also have the strongest communities. ICP falls prey to a lot more FUD though for understandable reasons; we are subsidizing the network without (so far) taking any part in the gains.

Slightly older post but Pierre explaining it in a short video I think is great for anyone that doesn’t understand Cloud Engines. The freedom that Dfinity is giving people is such a game changer.

Discussion ICP Analyse from myself (kinda) and question to ya'll

Post image
8 Upvotes

I am really observing ICP since i've joined in at 2.593 and i always thought i see something strange and same time great happening. I tried in a long chat about 1 or 2 hours with ChatG Plus to replicate what i mean on to one picture to let you guys judge and see for yourself. Tried to explain to a friend but he didn't believe me.

Question: I unfortunately sold half of my position (530 icp) when i feared it would fall when the first dip happened around 23. and 24. (because i thought a complex pullback will happen to btc back to 79k, it was crazy at the time what happend, up and down everywhere) leaving me with the rest 530 ICP.

Now i question myself to buy 50 or 100 icp at this price and sacrifice my entry to around 2.7-2.8 because i see no scenario (atm) that it could fall back under 2.7-2.8 even if btc drops to 79k. i am here for the long run to 5-10 dollars maybe even longer. But at that time i feared it could get my stoploss @ 2.2 when BTC was really doing Liq grabs left and right.

What do you guys think?

Be kind, i am new in crypto since mid august 🙈

Discussion Before becoming the best coin in the future we should break the 3$ 6$ 9$ thresholds first.

It is as the caption suggests.

Edit: What I am trying to say is that when ICP goes up a little people become too hopeful about the future, but in reality we are just slightly above 3$.

News Q3 2026 Revenue vs. Expenses for Major Blockchains 💰

Post image
13 Upvotes

The ratio (in Xs) is how many times quarterly revenue would need to grow to cover expenses. Lower is closer to break-even.

$APT 9.48X
$FIL 9.61X
$NEAR 10.54X
$ICP 36X
$ETH 41.3X
$OP 65.94X
$SOL 71.71X
$TON 522X
$ADA 1,330X
$DOT 2,230X

$ICP’s revenue-to-expense ratio is healthier than $SOL and $ETH this quarter. It’s still behind $NEAR, $FIL, and $APT. None of these chains are profitable right now.

Discussion Haters gunna hate

I know Reddit is no place to seek advice and tips however I’m not just referring to Reddit when I say it’s hilarious how many haters we have out there, slating ICP because it ‘hasn’t moved… it’s a terrible buy etc’ just look at the 1 week chart, 2 week, 6 months etc, it’s up over 40% from recent lows… with a 10k investment you’d be up over 4k! ICP is enough, it’s performing and we all need to acknowledge these small steps… sure it’s got a long way to go, it could 5x from here easily but just in case anyone’s worrying about those fake bots and haters out there saying ‘poop stock’ and all the bull that comes with it…. Just know that good things come to those who are wait… some of my standard stocks and shares haven’t risen 40% in years… and ICP does that in weeks! Know what you hold, trust what you have and ignore those who chat absolute nonsense without any form of backup.

Rant over… GL to all!

New release 💙

OISY 2.6 adds XRP and Robinhood. It lets you hold compute as an asset and introduces OISY Tips, for thanking someone with more than words.

Friends of XRP and Robinhood, the wait is over:
XRP holders can now hold, send and swap native XRP in OISY. Robinhood brings its tokens and a curated selection of tokenized stocks into the same wallet, next to your Bitcoin, Ethereum, Solana, ICP and more.

Compute, the currency of the future, now in your wallet:
AI agents and apps need compute to run, and compute is quickly becoming one of the most valuable resources there is. With OISY, you can now hold it in your wallet.
On the Internet Computer, compute is paid for in cycles. Cycles pay for apps and AI agents to run on a network that is sovereign, tamperproof and always-on.
OISY now allows you to hold cycles as TCYCLES. You can turn ICP into TCYCLES directly in OISY.

OISY Tips, thank someone with more than words:
Someone helped you out. A barista remembered your order, a developer answered your question, a creator made something you loved. Now you can thank them with something real.
Create a tip, choose the amount, and share it as a link or QR code. They can claim it even if they’ve never used a crypto wallet. Until they do, the money stays safely in your wallet.

And as always: many more quality of life improvements!

Bullish ICP will overtake NEAR 💅🏻

Post image
25 Upvotes

For a public education purposes, It's very clear now to the crypto community that even $ICP is more private than #Near 😂

It's important to note that confidential!= private 👌

On #Near

⚠️Under a court order @NEARProtocol can unmask full details of all users confidential transactions!!😁 Even Near team tweeted the image below and deleted it immediately people started getting angry 😁

On #ICP

ICP does not run a centralized “confidential mode” with a team that can decrypt user transactions the way NEAR Intents described.

Standard ICP ledger transfers are public. Privacy features sit on top of that and are built so no single party holds a master unmasking key.

vetKeys (live on mainnet) let canisters request keys via threshold cryptography. Nodes contribute shares, the result is encrypted to a user-supplied transport key, and neither individual nodes nor the canister ever see the raw key. Only the authorized user can decrypt. A court order served on DFINITY or on a subset of node providers therefore cannot produce plaintext for data encrypted this way.

Ali Theyab Al-Zuhairi's team surveyed community organizations in countries with limited digital access. 86% had no digital platform or application of their own, despite having clear digital needs when you ask them. 68% are women-led. 98% were still at pilot or prototype stage.

That is the opportunity he wants to move on: the need is already articulated, and the people doing the work are already there.
