The biggest projects on ICP: WordPress, new developer tools, and Cloud Engines
We see and it seems we are happy — WordPress is already integrated on ICP, new developer tools are coming out, Cloud Engines rollout is announced. Everything looks like it’s moving forward: infrastructure is developing, Internet Computer is in transformation, and they show us a “decentralized cloud.”
But the reality is catastrophic. UTOPIA has become a giant corrupt black hole. Every project goes through this channel in such a way that no cycles are burned at all. This is not just a technical glitch — this is a fraudulent trap, and neuron holders have become its victims.
The facts prove it:
- In 2025, daily cycles burn was 8–12 thousand dollars.
- In 2026, after UTOPIA was launched, burn does not go above 5000 dollars, even though the number of projects has doubled.
This means that users benefit — infrastructure is better for them, tools are simpler, services are accessible. But neuron holders, those who locked ICP in staking, have actually become victims of a fraudulent trap: their rewards are halved, burn metrics have disappeared, tokenomics is paralyzed.
The logic is clear: ICP is developing technically, but economically it is a giant corrupt mechanism that robs investors and keeps neuron holders trapped. A new project is no longer good news — it is just another channel through which investors are deceived even more.
UTOPIA = fraudulent trap, catastrophe for neuron holders.
UTOPIA didn’t launch in 2026. It’s been around since 2024/2025 I believe? And no one knows how many UTOPIAS were actually launched. Does anyone even know?
Cloud Engines wouldn’t be possible if it wasn’t for UTOPIA so even if a few did launch, does it even matter at this point?
You have just been handed a 2 yr dissolve button if you haven’t noticed. The problem is how down are you on your investment and where will the price be in 2 years?
True, UTOPIA already existed in 2024/2025, but that is exactly what created the corrupt and fraudulent economic model that has trapped investors. Cloud Engines may present a technological facade of progress, but in reality this does not justify the system. In the last four months the burn has not exceeded $4,600, which clearly shows that supply is no longer decreasing and stakers have no real incentive. Your question (“how down are you and where will the price be in 2 years”) highlights this fraudulent trap precisely: investors are already at a loss and the next two years leave nothing but uncertainty.
There has been effectively radio silence on UTOPIA since it was announced, I’m not aware of any that have been released.
Cloud Engines are either the alternative to UTOPIA’s or something completely different.
It’s amazing how unclear the direction is from DFINITY and Dom.
2 year dust
Again UTOPIA has NOTHING to do with the burn on the dashboard which is entirely the public blockchain projects burning ICP.
UTOPIA does not show up there because it does not burn ICP at all.
Cloud Engines is the new strategy to more effectively sell and distribute UTOPIAS but now it will be on a new revenue model with 80% of the rental cost going to node providers and 20% of the rental cost burning ICP. (still doesn’t burn ICP directly like public blockchain projects I don’t believe)
Therefore the new model does directly impact ICP in some way which is better than 0%.
Also, the idea is to have node providers do the marketing and sales to obtain the most amount of business I believe. I’m not sure but having the ability to just spin up a private UTOPIA = Cloud Engine on the fly in whatever location you like via big tech cloud like AWS should make it easier to help get paying customers. We’ll see.
They weren’t moving UTOPIAS so they came up with a new way to distribute. It is not dust.
