MEET OUR COHORT 3 @akashnet STUDENT AMBASSADORS!! 🚀

Get to know the students representing Akash at universities around the world 🌎

Huge shoutout to @rachelt313 for putting together this incredible video!! 👏

[Akash Student Ambassadors @AkashStudents]

Six students walked into a Solana build night at Cornell.

Six left with a live app on @akashnet.

Our ambassador @rachelt313 ran the session. Each student wrote a message onchain on @solana, then deployed a site on Akash that reads it straight from the chain.

Cost to keep one running: $2.59 a month.

Want to run this on your campus? DM us.

You don’t have to be an engineer to be an Akash ambassador. @Dimefps is proof.

He’s a finance major at Fordham who learned Akash by deploying his own projects.

At his latest Akash workshop, seven students stayed afterward for one on one help. He even met with one of them every night for a week and a half until they got the sports prediction bot deployed.

He also helped a classmate get a stuck trading bot running on Akash at a lower cost than AWS.

Now he’s the person students on campus go to with questions about Akash.

so impressive @mayukhaar !! 💫

[Mayukha Ajeesh Ramsha Nath @mayukhaar]

i built a button that kills my own server

nothing happens. traffic moves, a new one spawns on another @akashnet provider, and the app never notices

it’s called hydra. simulator only for now, but go ahead and press it

[Akash Alpha @akashalpha_]

I’ve never really used $SOL before this.

Where should new-coming $AKT holders go to get a taste of the scene?

Where are the community TG and discord haunts? Let’s connect.

@Solo_Gopher @bnf_fordham @Dimefps @miguelxType @akashnet you guys absolutely killed it!!

[Akash Student Ambassadors @AkashStudents]

@CobyMcclellan teaching us all about OpenJev on @akashnet ! 👏👏👏

[Akash Student Ambassadors @AkashStudents]

Big moment for Akash, and love seeing our student ambassadors right in the middle of all the excitement! 🚀

It's official: @akashnet is moving to @solana 🚀

Prop #346 PASSED with 97.27% YES. Not a vote, a landslide 🗳️

What's next:
1️⃣ Audits (~2-3 weeks)
2️⃣ $AKT goes 1:1 as an SPL token
3️⃣ 2-year one-way migration portal

Decentralized compute just got Solana speed ⚡

Why Solana 👇

[zhen zhuang @Solo_Gopher]

Akash Prop 346 is live. If you stake $AKT, you get a say.

In plain words: it asks stakers to approve moving @akashnet from its own Cosmos chain to Solana. If it passes, AKT launches 1:1 as an SPL token after two independent audits, via a one-way portal open for 2 years. Live deployments don't change yet; moving the marketplace needs a separate vote later.

My take as a student builder: I care that deploying stays simple. SDL files don't change, and lower fees plus a bigger dev ecosystem could help bring more students in. The tradeoffs are real: staking rewards end at cutover, validators lose their role, and migration is one-way.

Voting closes Nov 2, 15:02 UTC. Vote with staked AKT on Mintscan (Keplr or Leap).

"If you don't vote, your validator votes for you".

Vote: https://t.co/HkcaGGEIAW
Why Solana: https://t.co/ubqYMfN6VE

Not financial advice.

@Solo_Gopher @UBC_Conference @umnblockchain lets goo!!! can't wait to see you there!!

[Fordham Blockchain @bnf_fordham]

Strong turnout for our @akashnet_ workshop last week, especially during midterms season! 🚀

Returning members were eager to go deeper, after our Akash overview we had a hands-on workshop where a few of our students built and deployed real projects!

Stay tuned to see whats coming next..

[Greg Osuri 🇺🇸 @gregosuri]

$AKT community passed the proposal in record time.

Akash moving to Solana is now official.

(There is still a small chance voters can change their decision but unlikely)
