Internet Computer (IC), a decentralized blockchain platform designed to execute smart contracts. The IC aims to address limitations of existing blockchain platforms by focusing on improved speed, storage costs, and computational capacity. The paper details the IC's architecture and protocols including its consensus layer, message routing, and execution layer. The paper also introduces chain-key cryptography, a cryptographic technique that leverages threshold signatures and blockchain technology to secure and manage the IC's operation. Finally, it discusses the ICP token, which serves as the IC's native token for governance and transaction fees, and explores features like boundary nodes and the network nervous system (NNS) that enable decentralized governance.
