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 best way to buy Internet Computer (ICP) with Danish Krone (DKK)?
To buy Internet Computer (ICP) with DKK, you typically need to use a cryptocurrency exchange that acts as a fiat on-ramp. The process involves finding a platform supporting DKK deposits, completing the required KYC/AML compliance checks, and then funding your account via a SEPA transfer or a debit/credit card. Once your DKK is deposited, you can place an order on the DKK/ICP trading pair to purchase the digital asset. -
How do ICP's 'canister smart contracts' work and why are they important for the network?
Canister smart contracts are the computational units on the Internet Computer blockchain. Unlike traditional smart contracts, canisters bundle both code (compiled to WebAssembly/WASM) and its memory, allowing them to host complex Web3 services and dApps directly on-chain. They are crucial because they enable the 'World Computer' vision, where developers pay for computation using 'cycles' (derived from ICP), creating a sustainable ecosystem with intrinsic demand for the ICP token. -
What is the 'reverse gas model' on Internet Computer and how does it differ from other blockchains?
The 'reverse gas model' is a unique feature of the Internet Computer. Unlike blockchains like Ethereum where end-users pay gas fees for every transaction, on ICP, developers pre-charge their canister smart contracts with 'cycles'. These cycles are consumed as users interact with the application. This means users can interact with Web3 services seamlessly without needing a digital wallet or tokens, creating a user experience similar to traditional web applications and removing a major barrier to adoption. -
How can I participate in on-chain governance with my ICP through the Network Nervous System (NNS)?
You can participate in ICP's on-chain governance by locking your ICP tokens into a 'neuron' within the Network Nervous System (NNS). The NNS is the algorithmic DAO that controls the network. By creating a neuron, you can vote on proposals that determine the future of the Internet Computer protocol. In return for your participation and staking ICP, you earn voting rewards, creating an incentive to contribute to the network's long-term health and security. -
Are there specific cryptocurrency exchanges that are better for DKK to ICP trading?
While many global exchanges list ICP, for a direct DKK to ICP transaction, it's best to look for platforms with strong European or Nordic presences. These exchanges are more likely to offer direct DKK deposit methods like SEPA transfers, have better DKK/ICP liquidity in their order book, and provide customer support familiar with Danish regulations. Always check the trading fees, deposit options, and security features before choosing an exchange.
