1. Expanding the Domain Portfolio: Why Dedicated Gateways Matter

As ICPay matures from a pure custodial Internet Computer wallet into a broader sovereign cloud suite featuring ICBucket (on-chain object storage) and ICFalcon (Motoko developer framework), our web presence requires dedicated, role-specific domain holdings.

2. Official Support Channel: contact@icpay.cloud

While ICPay core smart contracts operate autonomously on-chain without human intermediaries, users, developers, and institutional partners frequently require direct contact for:

  • Enterprise storage quota inquiries and custom bucket configurations.
  • Partnership discussions and ecosystem integration opportunities.
  • Direct developer onboarding and technical feedback.
  • Non-public security disclosures prior to public issue publication.

You can now reach the team directly at contact@icpay.cloud. This option is permanently integrated across our public footer, legal documents, and in-app settings drawer.

3. Live On-Chain Milestone: 268+ Usernames & Healthy Runway

Our on-chain canister query metrics (verified via our operations suite npm run ci users:count and npm run ci bucket:stats) show healthy, organic ecosystem adoption:

Every username claim is recorded directly into the backend canister subaccounts (Canister ID: 6vbhm-nqaaa-aaaan-q6muq-cai), protected against clipboard poisoning and spoofing attacks.

4. How to Deploy Your First Bucket Today

Developers looking to migrate static assets away from centralized cloud providers and eliminate unpredictable bandwidth invoices can get started immediately:
