I bought 20 000 ICP, average price $5.5.
I could have bought FTM or ETH instead and been up about $100k.
Don't care too much since this is less than 5 % of my net worth.

Still, what went wrong here?
>$0.03 VC scammers are obviously still dumping every month on lockup.
>Way harder to develop games on ICP than initially thought.
>No one developing on ICP has a clue about user experience so they chose shitty urls, etc.
>Crypto never was about superior tech, never will be and the botched launch has fucked ICP for ever, no matter the new use cases which ICP unlocks.

Or are we just wrong? There's no need for ICP, there's no need for decentralized front-ends? There's no need for wallets which doesn't require downloading plugins, etc?

The core value proposition for ICP still feels fucking strong, but maybe we're wrong.
I still feel like nothing which is going on in the rest of crypto is interesting. There's no new innovation.

Using dscvr. one, dmail. ai, seach4n .org, hotornor. wtf and cubetopia does feel way different than anything else going on in crypto.
Still, price performance has been shit AF.
If it goes below $1.5 - 2, I'll accept defeat and there was nothing there to begin with.

I think the main issue is literally no one cares about crypto now. VCs, normies, media etc. I am a huge shill and am still slurping but I have been bored with crypto for weeks now. So on one hand it's probably really bearish, but in terms of an investment upwards potential is incredibly high if it actually takes off. ETH marketcap in this "bear market" is still over 100x higher and at peak crypto mania over 300x. If you think icp and dfinity aren't just smoke and mirrors and that crypto isn't a dead vaporware meme then a million dollar stack could cost a couple grand right now

I can't be bothered to check to unlocks but I really don't think they have much influence on price anymore, at least far less influence than macro factors

I believe this too.
I am still surprised it has underperformed the rest of the market since fall last year.
The early VCs can play a mayor role, I literally met one of the $0.03 VCs a couple of months ago. They're still sitting on a lot of coins but seems like they don't really belive in the project, apparently the main reason was that they didn't think it was enough "open source".
They invest in ICP projects like dmail, so I don't know their deal. But I think they're dumping. They literally have a 100x + already.

But yes, I agree that ICP in theory should hold way better potential than other coins, otherwise it wouldn't be my largest bag.

I think there are like 300 $0.03 VCs. Think they all put in smallar checks, like $50 - 100k. Might be way off though.
They had later rounds in 2018 at $5. Polychain capital with Olof Carlsen Wee was part of that round. Don't know about any other firms.
The 2018 round at $5 seemed waaay overpriced.

pretty sure it's like 1 or 2 guys that just spam this board with avax threads every weekday.

>>55810870
>>55811072

Notice they always say poomar or icpoor or whatever. Could just be one guy using different IPs

Whether it's ava labs employees or paid shills or not they are incredibly persistent on weekdays and have a decent but not perfect grasp on english. Anytime someone calls them out they deflect with copypastas or the same responses like "well we have real lives that's why we almost exclusively post during work hours".

But the actual beef goes back way further. I think Dom and Emin got into some twtitter arguments. Dom went schizo accusing Avax of meddling to fud ICP. Then later on ICP "sleuths" find out that ava labs was paying some slimy lawyer guy to go after ICP and other projects(?) (cryptoleaks). I am pretty sure the same anons who were spamming the ICP fud memes for a year or so, are the same guys spamming about avax but I could be wrong. Either way the possibility that Ava labs employees aren't posting online is so improbable, i mean there's hundreds of them. Same with ICP but the posting seems way more organic since moon man roped in a lot of people here

i got bags of both but i think avax is dumb

If you can't do can't do that, it shows that you've just chose a coin to gamble on. Which is fine. 99 % of people do that.

This is mostly an excuse which schizo crypto gamblers use when they've bought a coin just to gamble.

I did some research on this coin a couple of years ago, which is why I did buy a small bag of $2 - 3k.
Subnets (if I remember correctly they're chosing something similar to Cosmos) seemed a bit interesting and it's fast/cheaper + EVM compatible. So sure, it could have some small potential.

But it's still "just another L1" in my eyes and I haven't seen any dapps with strong adoption.
My bet is that you're clueless, you could literally just name a few AVAX dapps with 500+ daily active users and we would be done, but you probably don't know what you own despite shilling hard.

It’s a VC vaporware scam. I know, people think that just because a dev releases a well planned working product that the dev has some kind of plan afterwards to further implement and use.

Every time icp has been bought by big million $$$ wallets, the price goes down and stays down.

Don’t forget you have to buy a $20,000 server rig to run a node on a nearly network not being used by more than a dozen app developers.

no - ICP's USP was the fact that not only the coins /contracts/NFTS are hosted on-chain, but entire websites and databases

the consequence is that websites become much slower and more expensive, which basically nobody sees as a good proposition.

Bro, I literally bought the ETH ICO and have a 2000x + in the past and another 300x with FTM from 2019.
I'll be fine, don't need your advice.
Now I got about $1.5M in real estate/boomer stocks/ETFs. $0.5M in high growth stock. $400k in crypto and $150k in startup investments.

ICP still seems to be best risk/reward.
But the token distribution is something else and Dom has done a lot of dumb shit. But the seed valuation was standard at that time. Would have been better to just do an ICO like ETH. Don't know the reasoning as to why he only did it to accredited investors/VCs.
In the end I might lose these $100k, no biggie. Got lots of other investments which are going great. Future crypto gains might be dead/weak.

I'd like to know what the fuck you're going off of to make this ridiculous statement, you've been repeating in this thread.
What exactly is the projected reward? The tokenomics are beyond fucked, no one uses it, it's been named a security by the SEC etc. etc.
The only upside it has, is that Bitcoin will moon next year after the halving, and all of the shitcoins will go along for the ride. And that's not guaranteed either as we've seen in 2021 and 2017. Not all shitcoins come back.
