Exploring ICP with ICP Manila at Virspacio Coworking

Unraveling the Internet Computer Protocol in Manila

On August 11, 2023, The BLOKC joined forces with ICP Manila for a live, in-person session held at Virspacio Coworking Spaces. The event featured ICP Manila's Nelson Lumbres and community figure Modern Mulan as they guided attendees through the fundamentals and real-world applications of the Internet Computer Protocol (ICP).

What is ICP?

The Internet Computer Protocol is a blockchain network developed by the DFINITY Foundation that aims to extend the public internet to host smart contracts and decentralized applications at web speed. It represents a bold step toward a fully decentralized web — one where software can run directly on a public network rather than relying on centralized cloud infrastructure.

The Session

The room was alive with curiosity and enthusiasm as participants gathered to explore the technology behind ICP. The discussion moved beyond theory, grounding concepts in tangible, real-world use cases that demonstrated how ICP can reshape industries and empower developers to build the next generation of decentralized applications.

The collaborative atmosphere at Virspacio made for an engaging learning environment, bringing together blockchain enthusiasts, developers, and curious minds eager to understand what ICP brings to the Web3 ecosystem.

Community-Driven Learning

This session is a testament to The BLOKC's mission of building blockchain literacy across the Philippines — one block at a time. By partnering with community-driven groups like ICP Manila, The BLOKC continues to create spaces where knowledge is shared freely and the Web3 community grows stronger together.
