I always thought that when a project delays its implementation for many years, it often leads to nothing good, but we see the opposite, the team worked hard for a long time, and in the end we see what a successful project it turned out to be.
That totally depends on the how reliable the team and development progress that has been made. ICP is not the first case but i can tell you some coins that were doing the same thing like ICP.
if you know about file coin and this coin needs a few years to be launched in the market and it was giving very good result to the all of ico buyers.
Wait.... What? Dfinity's internet computer project shouldn't be compared to filecoin. At a very basic level, File coin provides decentralized storage platform that users can take advantage of to store their important stuffs while Internet Computer is trying to revolutionize the internet. I was one of the participants of the genesis launch event and all I can say is that Internet computer is one of the most advanced crypto projects we would see in a while. I mean, it tool the team over 5 years to build. It's not just a regular project boosting about transaction speed or cheap fees. It does way more.
