About
Internet Computer (ICP)

Internet Computer (ICP) is a decentralized network designed to function as a 'World Computer,' providing a complete Web3 infrastructure for hosting software, services, and data directly on the blockchain. Developed by the DFINITY Foundation, it fundamentally aims to extend the public internet's capabilities, allowing developers to build and deploy applications without reliance on centralized cloud providers. The core of its architecture is Chain Key Technology, a cryptographic breakthrough that allows the network to operate at web speed with unbounded capacity. This technology enables its unique smart contracts, known as 'canisters,' to serve interactive web content directly to end-users, facilitating a seamless and fully on-chain experience.

The network utilizes a 'reverse gas model,' where developers pre-load canisters with 'cycles'—a computational fuel converted from ICP utility tokens—to cover user interaction costs. Governance is managed by the Network Nervous System (NNS), an on-chain, tokenized system where ICP holders stake tokens in 'neurons' to vote on proposals and earn rewards. This positions ICP as a foundational layer for building scalable DeFi applications, decentralized social media, and enterprise systems entirely on-chain. The ICP digital asset is thus integral for network participation, rewarding node machine providers, and fueling the computational power of its ecosystem.

Frequently asked questions

  • What is the primary method for buying Internet Computer (ICP) with Bulgarian Lev (BGN)?

    The most common method is to use a cryptocurrency exchange that serves the European market. Users typically start by making a BGN deposit via a SEPA transfer, as Bulgaria is in the EU. Often, you may need to first trade BGN for a major currency like EUR or a stablecoin (e.g., USDT) and then use that to purchase ICP on the platform's order book. This process serves as a fiat on-ramp and requires KYC/AML compliance for security.
  • What is the role of ICP tokens within the 'World Computer' blockchain ecosystem?

    ICP tokens have three primary functions. First, they are used for governance by staking them in the Network Nervous System (NNS) to vote on proposals. Second, they can be converted into 'cycles,' which act as the computational fuel to power canister smart contracts and decentralized applications. Third, they reward node providers and other network participants, securing and operating the decentralized cloud infrastructure of the Internet Computer.
  • Are direct BGN/ICP trading pairs common, or do I need to perform a two-step trade?

    Direct BGN/ICP trading pairs are rare due to lower liquidity for the Bulgarian Lev on most global exchanges. The standard procedure involves a two-step trade: first, convert your BGN to a high-liquidity currency like EUR or a stablecoin such as USDT or USDC. Second, use that asset to trade for ICP on a market with a deep order book. This ensures better pricing and faster execution for your digital asset purchase.
  • What are 'canister smart contracts' on the Internet Computer, and why are they relevant?

    Canister smart contracts are an evolution of traditional smart contracts. They bundle code and memory (running on WebAssembly or WASM) into a single unit, allowing them to serve web content directly to users and manage on-chain data storage at scale. They are relevant because they enable the creation of complex, fully decentralized applications and services on the Internet Computer's blockchain, which is the core value proposition powered by the ICP token.
  • What are the typical fees and settlement times for BGN deposits to crypto exchanges?

    For deposits in Bulgarian Lev (BGN), the most common method is a SEPA (Single Euro Payments Area) transfer. These transfers are typically low-cost or free, depending on your bank, and usually take 1-2 business days to settle in the exchange's account. Some exchanges may also support instant debit/credit card purchases, which are faster but often incur higher processing fees, typically between 1-3% of the transaction value. Always check the fee schedule on your chosen platform.
