Rising Star? The global distributed computing platform Dfinity is about to launch.

The cryptocurrency market has once again entered a climax, with Bitcoin breaking through the $64,000 high, and other mainstream coins and smaller tokens also rising. In this round of the bull market, a project called ICP suddenly jumped to the third position in market capitalization, attracting widespread attention.

ICP stands for Internet Computer Protocol, a project developed by the Dfinity Foundation. Dfinity is not a new project; it was established back in 2015 and is regarded as one of the "Four Kings" in the blockchain field. After 6 years of development, the Dfinity mainnet is set to officially launch this April.

Dfinity's vision is to create a global distributed internet computer system, reshaping the internet infrastructure and becoming a distributed cloud computing platform. It is considered one of the three major infrastructures of the Web3.0 ecosystem, alongside public chains such as Ethereum and Polkadot, as well as projects like FileCoin.

Dfinity ensures the stable operation of its global distributed computing platform through three major modules: the neuron network system (NNS), the container (Canister), and the fee (Cycles). NNS is a decentralized governance system, containers are similar to smart contracts, and Cycles serve as a stable fee mechanism.

Currently, there are some representative projects in the Dfinity ecosystem, such as the decentralized social media Capsule, the Web3 application platform Fleek, and the encrypted communication application OpenChat. With the mainnet about to go live, global investors and developers are focusing on this, hoping that this innovative project can bring breakthrough progress to the decentralized world.

The emergence of Dfinity means that the underlying infrastructure of the decentralized world has basically been established. In the future, users are expected to enjoy a decentralized application experience where they can autonomously control their data, participate in product governance, and share in the benefits. A new era centered around user interests and personal data is dawning, and the traditional models of big capital and big platforms may face challenges.

Can Dfinity achieve its grand vision and truly change the world? Let's wait and see.
