What is the ecology of Dfinity, which just went online on the main network?

Just a few hours ago, Dfinity, a decentralized computer network, announced the Beta mainnet.

From DFN to ICP, Dfinity, Ethereum's rival, has morphed into a protocol on a par with TCP/IP. I have to say, this is one of the most important milestones for the world on the chain this year. This computing network backed by A16Z and Polychain, these top investment institutions, also gives us a greater space for imagination.

But who is to say that Dfinity's ICP is likely to be on a par with TCP/IP, or even succeed in bringing people to the Web3.0 world? In addition to solving various problems of the existing public chain, ICP reduces user friction and maintains the use experience of Web2.0 applications is the top priority.

One of the most common usage issues that people complain about is the network fee. To use a decentralized app on any network, a user needs to buy the network's native tokens on a decentralized exchange and transfer them to a wallet before using the app, which creates a poor user experience.

The contribution of ICP's Reverse-Gas model to optimizing the user experience is commendable. The Reverse Gas model allows users to interact with the ICP protocol without holding any tokens, which greatly reduces the user entry threshold and optimizes the user experience. As a result, users can enjoy the benefits of decentralized applications without being aware.

The optimization of the user experience has opened up opportunities for non-DEFI applications that previously could not survive on Ethereum. Thrive with the help of the Beacon Fund (Polychain Management) Dfinity Ecology has thrived.

At the World Blockchain Conference 2020 last December, Dominic, founder of Dfinity, said about Cancan: "It's similar to Tik Tok, where users can use tokens as rewards. On Cancan, users can give up to 10 'super likes' a day. When they see something that they think will go viral, they can give super likes. The earliest users to give a super like are rewarded with a large number of bonus points. There are periodic 'Drop Days' where bonus points can be exchanged for Cancan governance tokens, or for prizes provided by the sponsor, which can then be used to pay for advertising."
