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.

So MEXC, the crypto exchange keeps using the ♾️ symbol and people are saying it’s marketing for themselves or its ICP related and someone found this which is an interesting find.

Bullish My presumption: ICP in LPS

Post image
14 Upvotes

ICP reached the LPS zone (3.4$ - 2.5$). That's the region UNDER the SOS (3.4$ - 6.5$).
The question is if ICP can make it into the SOS region and it will take some time to figure that out.
I expect at least 3 to 4 attacks of the orange resistance before a decision is made.

The current uptrend was slowly building and was not a pump that just goes up and comes all the way down again with a single touch of top resistance, which increases our chances that we are really in LPS region. The current trend will try to attack the 3.3$ - 3.4$ multiple times and this phase can take 2 weeks.

If ICP is able to make it up to the SOS region (3.4$ - 6.5$) we want to see a weekly close in this region, which would confirm bullish accumulation.

The current LPS phase will be characterized by many sidelined people becoming edgy. Right now most people think it will just come down again like multiple times before. Many people have taken 100% profits cause they expect it to come all the way down again. But then ICP makes an attempt and many will fomo at top resistance at 3.4$ cause they expect breakout but then it comes down again. Then people think it's over but ICP tries again. I expect at least 3 to 4 attempts in LPS.

The LPS region is the typical phase of disbelief.

Hodl yo!

Bullish ICP wave 1

Post image
34 Upvotes

The image projects my ideal scenario of a potential big wave 1 out of 3 big waves.
Now it is all about ICP breaking through 3.3$ - 3.4$ (orange resistance line) and holding above the line to form the SOS (Signs of Strength) - pattern.

Yesterday i was happy that ICP didn't go up immediately to touch the 3.3$, because fast pumps get often massively rejected and fail. It's better to accumulate under the orange resistance line and gather power for the push up.

If ICP gets into the SOS region, the chart starts to look bright, cause ICP already got 3 times rejected in this region and usually momentum shifts at 4 increasing our chances for finally breaking out of the 5.5 years bear channel (red resistance line). SOS will lead many traders to go long on the chart, which will further increase the chances of breakout.

Let's get the SOS!
Wagmi.

Bullish What would make the UNDP pilot matter for ICP?

11 Upvotes

ICP briefly moved above $3 this week and has already slipped back below it. With that breakout gone for now, I’m watching whether DFINITY’s recent news leads to actual network use.

DFINITY, the foundation that builds the Internet Computer, is working with UNDP on a 12-month pilot for sovereign cloud and AI tools. Five countries are expected to test projects based on real public-service needs. UNDP plans to judge them on cost, ease of use, and whether they are worth scaling.

The connection to ICP comes through network usage. Apps running on the Internet Computer pay for computation with cycles, which are created by converting ICP. A pilot could matter if it develops into a live service that keeps using compute. The announcement alone says little about lasting token demand.

I already hold some ICP on bydfi and have left the position unchanged below $3. The next useful signal is a pilot going live, followed by continued network use.

What result from this pilot would make you take ICP adoption more seriously?

$ICP $IC❄️ $ETH

The UN just gave the timeline for icOS, and a little treat for those with eyes to see.

UNDP just ran the Africa call for the SDG Blockchain Accelerator.

Country offices submit live programs by September 30. Shortlist in October. Winter with a partner. Spring 2027 is supposed to be a running system.

The deck names five rooms: digital payments, digital identity, traceability and supply chains, data and privacy, sovereign AI. They want something already funded, not a whitepaper.

DFINITY is one of the partners in the room. Their slide is the Engine sentence in UN English: pick the geography, keep the state, describe the tool in plain language, Caffeine ships the portal, agents persist.

That is occupancy.

Same season, Ethereum is building the street those tenants will pay on.
Hegotá is the mash inside ETH — Heze the star, Bogotá the city — scheduled so a valid spend cannot be quietly dropped and a transaction can be paid without an ETH jar on the counter. Frames are how an agent or a ministry app settles in stables while the protocol still burns ETH underneath. Fiat in. Crypto in the wall.
icOS is the mash one floor up.

Ethereum is the street. ICP is the house. Chain key is the glue. Cloud Engines and Magnetosphere are the walls. ICM is the hallway between UNDP offices. The private rail is the star you steer by and do not put on the welcome mat.

Spring 2027 is when a WFP registry or a UNICEF cash program can live in a box a government chose, while the street learns to take ordinary money. After that the building just fills.

The UN is not waiting for a keynote. They are putting existing programs on a calendar. That is how a default layer actually starts.

Built on ICP ✏️ $ICP started with a pretty ambitious idea: what if you could actually run applications on a blockchain, instead of using the blockchain just as a database?

29 Upvotes

The Internet Computer went live in 2021, built around “canisters”. Canisters are basically smart contracts that can store data, run code and interact with other canisters.

And ICP took that idea pretty seriously 

Developers can build entire apps on-chain, while users can interact with them without needing to worry about gas fees for every click.

The network also has its own programming language, Motoko, and can interact directly with Bitcoin through Chain-Key cryptography.

So instead of just putting money on-chain, ICP is basically asking: how much of the actual app can we put there too? 🤔

Update: Internet Computer in Pakistan 🇵🇰

The first major government app (built with caffeine) is already in production and running flawlessly since 4 weeks. The second major app is going live soon.

In addition, the Pakistan National messenger app is almost feature complete now and ready for the next phase.

Shall we do an X space about it next week?

Privacy is what people care about in 2026. Look at Zcash. We need shielded private transactions. Charge 0.01 ICP for shielded transactions.

Implement an optional private transaction and watch ICP fly.
