Gentlemen, we have been robbed, plain and simple. Twist and turn it however you want to make this look good but reality says otherwise.
I'd like to congratulate Dominic Williams of preparing, organizing, marketing and running the successful scam in crypto history. He has made all checkpoints:
- Nice idea, whitepaper
- Huge team. Wonder if they are real people or fake Tinder like profiles. Most of them successful, established, ex employees of Google, Apple and the likes.
- Roadmap
- Successful and coordinated launch on all major exchanges, something which hasn't been done before.
- Social media presence
- International incorporation
So, the perfect recipe to create a huge hype. No wonder it landed on #CMC in the top 5 on day 1.
Many gullible people fell for this because it sure did look very legit, promising and a true project with a future. But what we got was the biggest marketing ponzi ever. Many people bought at around $200-$300. They lost a lot. Dominic Williams and the gang around him made a couple of BILLION dollars in a few days. Not a bad chunk of change for the 3 years or so they spent planning for this HEIST.
I always wondered how such a nobody as Williams (check his Bio, linkedin etc) managed to gather such people around him since he was a virtual nobody, always after profit. Even he says so how his projects return such high yields for his investors.
Anyways, I probably would've been less pissed with myself if I'd bought one of the meme coins, Doge, Shiba, Cat, Elonmars or similar garbage which I know is a scam, at least I'd know I gambled and lost.
But this, this was marketed as legit. Turned out to be the biggest scam in crypto history.

All the red flags were there & you had numerous anons telling you to stay away.
I hear Doms boasting about a new website while his chain continues to gain L's across the board on projected roadmap milestones. ICP missed the entire bullrun dropping - 90 percent & it's dropped another - 90 percent since than to now. This thing never stood a chance. But hey Doms working hard having lavish dinners working hard. Solana was able ti deliver on EVM yet ICP couldn't? B4 you idiots start to say "it's not needed" the whole purpose is to bring in liquidity from other chains structure. Alien superior tech ahead of the game with the top team right ? Right.

The hackathon yesterday revealed to the world the stuttering potheads that run this scam.
Price has already tanked 10%. Once it breaks through the $6 resistance the panic will begin and small holders and speculators will begin to offload, with the VC whales already long gone.
Once it shoots through the $5 mark, unabated FEAR will ripe through all piss marines. With all those who dumped their current accounts into this scam twitching at their arsehole continuously while refreshing tradingview.
The $1 mark will be met, the largest panic in history will ensue. The final deluded canisters will begin to go offline, and /pol/cels with their fast food salaries loaded up in ICY PEE will be left with it stuck in their wallet, unable to move it to coinbase to salvage some self respect.
The price WILL tank at this point to sub $0.03, and most probably go to 0.
From that day forward the deluded piss marine /pol/cel retards who bought this coin thinking it had fundamentals will go back to their wagie jobs, with no money in their current accounts, to be made redundant by the next wave of automation arriving to undercut their wages.
Deluded juggalos will hold bags FOREVER, with no job, no money, and no crypto.
I warned you chuds. There's still time to get out. Sell NOW.
Don't be deluded, don't be an piss marine.

As a senior software engineer ICP gives off some red flags for me and here's why:
ICP at its very core uses something called Web Assembly (WASM)

WASM was born in Web 2.0 way before ICP was born and it was made in theory to boost web performance by providing a portable code format to run in browsers at native speeds. Sounds good in theory right? Well WASM never gained traction and it heavily flopped, no one is using it today because JavaScript is just that much more convenient and faster to prototype with as well

The creators of ICP thought: What if we try to revive WASM but with a blockchain meme sauce layer on top by bringing it over to Web 3.0 and present it as some sort of revolutionary paradigm? Well it worked for them seeing how it lured brainlets from /biz/ and half of India into investing into it so kudos to them for pulling this off

So why did WASM flop? That's because JavaScript is easy to write, and Web Assembly isn’t even intended to be written by humans, plus its most efficient code is generated by C or C++ source code, which isn’t for everyone either

The only thing WASM has going for it is being able to do heavy-duty tasks on the web, but we have things like GLSL for that

There is this truism that technology never dies

Most big bank, airline, credit, and other very large systems still run on COBOL or other mainframe-era technologies.
In my line of work I still encounter VB6, PowerBuilder, and other 1990’s-era technologies powering mission-critical systems

Knowing this fact, I think it's highly unlikely that the usage of the ICP blockchain will be adopted into the mainstream seeing how even Web 2.0 failed to adopt it

The theory behind ICP was neat, but they forgot to take into account the actual reality/practice

ICP was dead on arrival because it bets on the wrong horse as evident by its chart

You need a blockchain project that can convince current traditional companies to switch over and this is just not it

No adoption = No project

The only plan is DUMP.

>VCs loaded up and purchased $10 000 worth of ICP at 3 cents a piece ($0.03)
>private investors and other early buyers loaded up HEAVY bags with 6 figs below $1 and $10
>ICP was listed above $2000 on Coinbase and Binance before stabilizing around $600, then $400 for like one week
>kept dumping since then, non-stop, thanks to retail, boomers and latecomers happily providing exit liquidity at the top of the crypto bubble thinking they were investing in revolutionary tech
>turns out that it's YET ANOTHER centralized vaporware scam that does NOTHING and doesn't build anything outside of a gambling DeFi platform for holders to lose even more funds in NFT scams (useless in bear markets and intrinsically worthless)
>almost everyone on /biz/ saw through the shills and their attempt by rightfully calling it a scam back in May 2021
>months pass
>eventually some faggot chink shill who probably wanted to cut his losses starts promoting this scam to the /pol/ subset of lurkers who browse this board when ICP was trading at $70
>he succeeds because he was lucky enough and made calls that were decent in the past
>but more importantly the 1488 bait and muh racism were enough to attract the lowest common denominators
>ICP keeps dumping
>Mario 64 on ICP is a nothingburger and gets shut down
>ICP keeps dumping
>ICP keeps dumping
>bear market is confirmed
>ICP keeps dumping even further

ICP is probably the second biggest scam to ever grace crypto, with TERRA/LUNA being in the first place and Bitconnect in the third. Compared to these two however, ICP and the Dfinity foundation are still fooling the drooling retards who were dumb enough to fall for the "tech in crypto" meme. Not even pajeets chasing shitcoins are as retarded and gullible as those people.

If you bought, held and lost money on ICP instead of ignoring it or swinging it for sats/dollars you are worthless human trash. Even a pajeet nigger on BSC is smarter and more sound financially.

ICP is not BTC nor is it ETH . Please stop making this comparison. ICP is a ambitious shit chain, just like avax, Sol, poly, Ada, dot etc etc etc. Nobody & I mean nobody wanted to hold this shit for 8 years plus. That's absolutely retarded. Especially when can easily ride pumps on other projects coming up. Those of us who bought & are over 90 down are forced to hold. Call it bagholding, call it married, call it whatever you want. If you invested in money that's worthwhile you don't sell at this loss. It's not because "I believe it in the tech" bs either. That's simply what you niggers are Brainwashing yourselves to believe. You think those VCS dumping from 3 cents on our ass give a fuck about muh tech? Why dump than? Lol Poor people need to believe in something just like religion, to feel validated. People who make money just care about making money & don't marry thier shit on imagine etc. Money rules & money decides what wins & loses. Unfortunately for some of us who held the loss of too great. Things will go up, but this was a very bad move. I didn't sign up for no bs 8 year gang im in it for tech religious bs.

I'll hold 1 year. - I've seen other projects take off within 12 months for some serious ROI. 24 months max.
I'll hold 2 years. - We've had some delays plus the market timing was off. Next bull run.
I'll hold 3 years. - I'm in it for the tech unironically. They should be completing Defi. Soon.
I'll hold 4 years. - Btc integration soon.
I'll hold 5 years. - Eth integration soon
I'll hold 6 years. - Good job Dom. Keep up the good work.
I'll hold 7 years. - Devs are active. Check Github chud. They actually respond to your questions.
8 year gang - I don't care about price until those 8 years are up. You know it's like Bitcoin & Eth in 2013.
It's over - I'm just holding & never selling. Have you seen their 40 year roadmap? You just don't understand. Imagine.

ABSOLUTE SCAM BULLSHIT
The public sale main round of Dfinity: $350 million for 10% of the tokens anguished. That is x200 for seed and x3 for strategic investors. Overall hardcap will be $3.5 billion! Also the team retains 50% of the tokens. If this isn't the most obvious pump and dump, then I don't know what is.

For those that aren't up to speed on the tech...

ICP functions EXACTLY like a Kohler Tresham.
Some have compared it to a rat hole, but that's not exactly correct because it leaves out the "swirling" (called "cycles" in the ICP system) as your money goes away.

Now, some say that literally burning your money is more efficient, but this really depends on local burn ordinances, so I'm left to consider it as the best system for going poor that exists.
By 2030 there will be no money left on the planet for anyone.
It's that much of a game changer.

second, the average retail pleb has to market buy and lockup for almost a decade, sounds exactly like your typical 2017/18 Homeblockcoin/Bitconnect type of scam.
