About Blockchains
About ICP
The Internet Computer is a decentralized cloud blockchain that pursues the $1+ trillion cloud market — hosting apps, websites and enterprise systems, fully onchain, where they benefit from extraordinary security and resilience, can do multi-chain token processing, and can be administered in a decentralized way for safety.
A core purpose is “self-writing cloud”, where AI creates apps for mass market users, which are sophisticated and secure, in response to instructions they provide over chat.
The ICP token is burned powering onchain apps, and is a cryptocurrency used in network governance staking.
It’s easy to try — use AI to create onchain apps (e.g. caffeine.ai) or use an online IDE to write serverless code yourself (e.g. icp.ninja)!
About BNB Chain
The BNB Chain, formerly known as Binance Smart Chain (BSC), is a blockchain platform introduced by the cryptocurrency exchange Binance. Its native token, BNB, serves various roles within the ecosystem. BNB acts as the network's transaction fuel, similar to gas on Ethereum, and grants users governance rights to participate in on-chain decision-making. In September 2020, Binance introduced the BNB Smart Chain alongside the BNB Beacon Chain, extending BNB's functionality. The BNB Smart Chain supports smart contracts and staking, offering an Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM)-compatible infrastructure. This dual-chain design aims to provide a high-performance, cost-effective environment for the blockchain community, ensuring compatibility with existing Ethereum tools and dApps while improving scalability and user experience.
