1. Project Introduction
Internet Computer (ICP) is a general-purpose blockchain launched in May 2021 by the DFINITY Foundation, with the goal of becoming the “world computer” by hosting decentralized applications (dApps).
ICP’s architecture is built upon several key components:
Internet Computer Consensus (ICC): A novel consensus mechanism consisting of four layers—Notarization, Blockchain, Random Beacon, and Identity.
Neurons: Users can stake ICP utility tokens in neurons to vote on network governance proposals, earning an annual yield of 11%–22%. Developers can also convert their ICP tokens into Cycles to pay for computation and storage.
Canister Smart Contracts: Advanced smart contracts built using WebAssembly code and memory, enabling developers to create dApps without gas fees, as Cycles are covered by developers instead of users.
Motoko: While developers can use any WebAssembly-compatible language (Rust, Go, C/C++, TypeScript, Java, Python, Ruby, Swift, etc.), Motoko is a purpose-built language optimized for developing dApps on Internet Computer.
