How ICM Works

Internet Capital Markets operate through a streamlined process that enables rapid tokenization and price discovery for internet-native assets.

1. Creating a Tokenized Asset

Entities can launch tokens permissionlessly via smart contracts. These represent digital presence — apps, products, or people.

2. Initial Pricing and Discovery

Tokens can launch with bonding curves, fixed prices, or auctions. Pricing emerges from participation, not centralized controls.

3. Liquidity and Tradeability

Liquidity pools enable 24/7 trading. Users can buy and sell based on public interest and perceived momentum.

4. Cultural and Functional Utility

Tokens can unlock content, access, or recognition — or simply reflect support. They are digital markers of alignment.

5. Lifecycle

Tokens grow, plateau, or fade depending on usage and narrative. They mirror the lifecycle of internet culture itself.
