Monthly Overview

July 2021 is a dense post-Genesis month focused on explaining what the Internet Computer is meant to do. The archive emphasizes scale, Chain Key cryptography, Bitcoin and Ethereum integration, Badlands, SNS, cycles, websites served from canisters, and comparisons with traditional cloud and other blockchains.

Main Themes

  • Post-Genesis ICP explanation: Many posts restate the Internet Computer as a scalable blockchain computer for smart contracts, websites, and services.
  • Chain Key and integrations: Bitcoin and Ethereum integration are recurring themes, with Chain Key positioned as the mechanism for direct interaction without conventional bridges.
  • Scaling and performance claims: Posts reference blocks per second, infinite capacity framing, canister smart contracts, and network acceleration.
  • Badlands and network expansion: Badlands appears as an extension concept meant to add amateur node providers and broader participation.
  • SNS and roadmap framing: Late-month posts list SNS, Bitcoin integration, X.509, Badlands, and other roadmap items as major upcoming advances.
  • Cloud replacement narrative: Several posts contrast canisters and onchain services with traditional backend software and cloud hosting.
