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.

Do you honestly think this tech will be mass adopted?

🚨 Most people are still sleeping on $ICP while partnerships with AWS are already in place through Cloud Engines. Check out @PierreSamaties giving more details on the upcoming Cloud Engines.

ICP is criminally underrated and misunderstood!
