ICP performed well this week, rising 27.8% weekly and 35.6% monthly, clearly outperforming the market. Although the overall trend is still consolidating today, the underlying logic is worth paying attention to.

There are several key points. The Mission 70 plan is very ambitious, aiming to reduce inflation by 70% by 2026, which directly implies a significant easing of supply-side pressure— a typical supply shock expectation. Historically, such expectations tend to be reflected in prices in advance.

Another aspect is the implementation of AI applications. Projects like Caffeine AI and funnAI are gaining popularity within the ecosystem, indicating that developers and users are experiencing these applications firsthand rather than just making surface-level promises. The narrative of AI combined with practical application progress often helps sustain enthusiasm.

The technical chart support is also present. The expectation of supply tightening, coupled with AI hotspots, is building up the conditions for the next wave of market movement.

ICP-2.32%

27.8% this increase is really impressive, but Mission 70 feels a bit like hype chasing? The ICP ecosystem AI part is indeed moving, but whether Caffeine and similar projects can truly break out remains uncertain. Supply tightening combined with AI hotspots sounds wonderful, but I don't know when it will actually trigger haha. Wait, is this another case of being absorbed by the accumulation...

A 35% monthly increase is okay, but I'm worried it might be a flash in the pan again. ICP was also this aggressive before. I've looked into the supply shock logic, but it still depends on whether Mission 70 can really be implemented. There are too many numbers on paper. Caffeine AI is quite interesting. It's the first time I've seen someone actually using things within the ecosystem, not just PPT projects.

A 27.8% increase is pretty good, but I need to keep an eye on Mission 70... Cutting inflation by 70% sounds tough, but whether it can actually be implemented is the key. The AI application part is interesting; genuine user experience > white paper hype, I agree with that. It's just about preventing a cooling off from hype; the current buzz is enough, but what about later?

Oh my, Mission 70's hand was really aggressive, cutting supply pressure by 70%... No wonder some people got out early. Wait, are Caffeine AI and funnAI really having real users or is this just another story? We'll see. Charts support the data, but who can guarantee it's not just a flash in the pan? A 27.8% increase sounds appealing, but the key is whether we can hold on this week.

Oh my goodness, ICP's 27.8% this time, how did I miss it again? Where was I when I was going all in? Mission 70 sounds pretty good, cutting supply by 70%. Is this really happening or just another story? By the way, I didn't get much from Caffeine AI for free, just clicked around a few times on funnAI. Is it really being used by people or just insiders interacting and farming rewards? Anyway, charts don't lie. Keep watching. But can this hype last until 2026? That's the real question.

I'm convinced about the 70% supply cut. The historical pattern is clear, once expectations are set, it's almost a lost cause. The fact that ICP has held up this well indicates it's not fake; AI applications are really starting to take off. If Mission 70 is implemented, there's still room for growth afterward.

Wow, this wave of ICP really paid off, soaring directly by 27.8% I like the combination of supply tightening + AI implementation, it's not just empty promises. Caffeine AI is indeed being used by more people now. Mission 70's aggressive inflation reduction should have been reflected in the price already; we'll see how it goes from here.

Alright, alright, Mission 70, right? Another routine of halving expectations. History always repeats itself. Wait, is anyone really using Caffeine AI? Or is it just another passing trend? Supply tightening combined with AI hype—this combo sounds like just storytelling again. A 27.8% increase—honestly, I doubt it can hold up. Consolidation is really about testing the true faith in real money. But when it comes to ecological applications landing, there are indeed more variables—more reliable than just storytelling.
