Note: this doesn’t delay Phase 3 at all. We’re already making really good progress on it, but I’d rather make sure everything we’ve already built is running properly before moving on. Perfection matters, and I don’t want to leave anything behind unattended.
Hold 10,000 $CEREBRO and start earning AI inference credits.
Today, you can use those credits through the API or trade them on the Cerebro Marketplace.
But Phase 3 gives them another purpose.
AI agents need compute to run. Every response, model call and task consumes inference.
As more agents and applications are built through Cerebro, those credits become part of what actually keeps them running.
Something you earn today becomes something the ecosystem can need tomorrow.
That’s what Phase 3 starts to unlock.
$1,478.12 in inference credits distributed so far.
What’s interesting is how quickly the pace is starting to pick up. As more holders discover Cerebro and become eligible, the amount of inference being distributed grows alongside it.
And this is still only one side of the economy.
For those who understand the bigger Cerebro vision, the interesting part will be watching what happens to the consumption of these credits as Phase 3 starts coming online.
We’ve only been live for 3 days, and already the pieces are starting to come together.
Big week ahead with a lot of updates coming. Keep those notifications on. 🧠
This is just a quick preview of the utility for anyone who hasn’t checked it out yet, or is too lazy to make a fresh wallet and go through it themselves.
There are already guides built in that walk you through everything step by step, so it’s pretty straightforward once you’re inside.
Take this video as a preview, not a full demonstration. A proper walkthrough showing everything in more detail will be coming later today, or tomorrow at the latest. Just sorting out some final editing before we put it out.
For now, have a little look at what we’ve been building.
Let's win.🧠
The whole team has been pretty locked in the last couple of days, so here’s a proper update on where things are with Cerebro.
The new Cerebro website is now live. The team has been rebuilding it around where the protocol is actually heading rather than continuing to patch the old version every time something new gets added. There are still a few things being cleaned up, but it gives Cerebro a much better foundation for what comes next.
A couple of days ago we mentioned that more models were being added to the inference API. The latest update from the team is that the work is nearly finished, and everything should be completed by the end of tonight or tomorrow at the latest.
Things will be patched in as they’re ready, so check the dApp and give it a refresh from time to time. Something new might appear before there’s even a post about it.
On the credit side, distribution has been moving way faster than expected. Seeing more inference being distributed and more wallets participating has been really good to watch.
It’s also nice seeing how many people genuinely believe in what Cerebro is trying to build.
There was a comment the other day asking something along the lines of:
“If too many inference credits keep getting distributed, doesn’t that eventually dilute the economy?”
It’s a fair question, but it misses the other side of what’s being built.
Credits aren’t designed to just accumulate forever.
Agents consume them.
That part will make a lot more sense as the next pieces of Cerebro start coming online.
And one last thing.
Once the Launchpad and Merry Man are released, the current docs are getting completely replaced.
They were written for a much earlier version of Cerebro, and the project has already moved quite a bit beyond them. The next version will go much deeper into the architecture, inference infrastructure, APIs, protocol mechanics and how everything actually connects underneath.
For now, the team is back at it.
Plenty going on behind the scenes. Let's keep going.
A fresh UI/UX update has just been pushed to the Cerebro dApp.
The entire interface has been refreshed to match the new Cerebro landing page, bringing the same design language across the whole platform.
Cleaner navigation, a more consistent experience and a better foundation for everything we’re continuing to add.
The website and dApp now finally feel like one Cerebro.
Refresh and take a look.🧠
CEREBRO LAUNCHPAD BETA IS NOW LIVE.
https://t.co/oM5CKmGi0B
Phase 3 is officially starting to open up.
The first public beta of the Cerebro Launchpad is now live and ready for the community to use.
This is an early beta, so only a limited set of features are available for now. The main goal at this stage is to get the Launchpad into the hands of real users, test it under actual usage and continue improving the experience while the remaining pieces are being completed.
The fully released version is already being worked on and will bring a much broader set of features as the Launchpad develops.
For anyone jumping in today and wondering where to start, we’ll be publishing a dedicated article on X explaining how the Launchpad works, how to use it and what you can currently do during the beta.
Our devs will also be posting a further update later today going deeper into the work behind the Launchpad, what’s currently being tested and some of what’s coming next.
This is still the beginning of Phase 3, so expect the Launchpad to change quite a bit from what you see today.
For now, the doors are open.
Cerebro Launchpad Beta is live. 🧠
some highlights from @antonkarlovskiy's github (founder of $CEREBRO / @Cerebro_RH )
contributed to Google Chrome Labs projects including quicklink (11k+ stars) and react-adaptive-hooks (5k+ stars, React Open Source Award)
built Py2Cpp Accelerator: frontier LLMs rewrite Python as C++ and auto-benchmark it — up to 60,000× faster (19s Pi calc → 0.013s)
shipped AI Interior Restyler: upload a room photo, pick a style, Gemini restyles it while keeping walls and camera angle
built Smart Insights Agent: Python CLI that cleans campaign data, benchmarks peers, and uses GPT for grounded next-best-action recs
broader stack: agents, RAG, Next.js/React performance, and model serving (vLLM/Ollama)
shipped the Interlay and Kintsugi UIs — live apps for a trust-minimized 1:1 Bitcoin bridge onto Polkadot/Kusama, with permissionless vaults anyone can run by posting collateral
built Interlay crowdloan apps plus the Kintsugi Bitcoin DeFi hub (issue/redeem iBTC and kBTC)
worked on Mantle Bridge after BitDAO — Ethereum L2 infra, not just another frontend
built Unizen DEX aggregator surfaces and other DeFi UIs (Windranger, Impermax, Metavault)
full-stack MetaMask login demo (Next.js + Express) plus Solidity/Hardhat/Foundry, viem/wagmi, and Polkadot-js work across EVM L2s and Bitcoin-adjacent chains

earlier today he said the following about "Phase 3" in a tweet (first 2 phases already complete)
"The interesting thing about an AI agent isn't simply giving it a ticker. It's that the agent has a real operating cost.
Inference.
Every model call, reasoning loop, autonomous task and output consumes compute.
If an agent becomes more active, its computational requirements grow with it.
So Phase 3 isn't about putting AI agents on a Launchpad and calling that utility.
I want the agents launching through Cerebro to actually sit on top of the inference economy we've spent the first two phases building.
Phase 1 distributes inference. Phase 2 makes that inference liquid. Phase 3 introduces software that needs to consume it.
also... we did some digging and found that he's followed by a current anthropic employee who said they've enjoyed working together... do with that what you will.
ZZZ is at 70m and you think CEREBRO can't go higher?
bullish
The Dune dashboard should be ready sometime next week. Once it’s up, we’ll quote this post back as usual. That’s pretty much how we like to do things. Say what we’re working on, build it, then come back when it’s done.
I think Dune will be important for Cerebro as activity starts picking up. Instead of us constantly posting screenshots and numbers, everyone will have somewhere to track the protocol activity for themselves.
And it’s not only useful when numbers are going up. If usage grows, you’ll see it. If things slow down or stay stagnant, you’ll see that too.
That’s useful for us as builders and for the community. We can actually look back over time and see the progression, where activity is coming from and how Cerebro is being used as more pieces of the economy come online.
We’re still small, which is exactly why I’d rather start tracking this stuff now. If Cerebro gets much busier later, we’ll have the history to look back on.
More soon. 🧠
