Decentralizing the Cloud with @Acurast.

Co-Founder of @PapersDev.

[Acurast @Acurast]

One hour. One request every 30 seconds. Zero dropped calls. Zero cloud servers.

In an exploratory collaboration, @POKTnetwork and @nodeghostai ran a full AI gateway on @Acurast's smartphone network using Cargo, combining inference and web search together, entirely on phones.

Not a single request failed.

This marks the first production AI gateway running entirely on smartphones, with no cloud infrastructure involved.

I really don't understand all these project switching from LayerZero to Chainlink CCIP.

The gras is not greener on the other side. Releases are entierly controlled by Chainlink Labs, as well as the selection of node operators that host who knows where and with what security aspect in place.

What am I missing?

The Acurast Hub just got a fresh new look.

Redesigned to make your experience smoother from the moment you log in.

Acurast just shipped a huge new product update: compute containers

With Codename: Cargo we're turning smartphones into decentralized supercomputers. Built to run anything across our global network of smartphones.

Websites, apps, AI agents, trading bots, ML models, that thing you vibecoded last weekend. Full Python, Go, Rust, C++. If it runs on Linux, it runs on Acurast.

Until today, Acurast was a JavaScript network. Cargo changes that. The full Linux ecosystem is now deployable on Android devices in the network, with the same trust model that secured every workload before it.

Confidential by default. No hyperscaler required.

Stress-testing on Canary is underway. Mainnet is next.

The biggest platform upgrade since Mainnet, explained by our Co-Founder @a_d_c_

Acurast is moving from a Node.js-only runtime to full Linux-based containers. Every Android Acurast Processor on the network now functions as a decentralized server with confidential execution at the hardware level.

No language barriers, full Debian software ecosystem, SSH access, and a VPS-like experience.

What you can build: autonomous AI agents, browser automation across thousands of devices, algorithmic trading bots, even game servers. Running across the Acurast network on Android smartphones in 175+ countries.

Decentralized Cloud. Same developer experience. No compromises.

The future of compute does not live in a data center, it lives in your pocket.

I've been regurarly using Claude Code over the past week and the difference in performance you get troughout the day is more than noticeable even on a higher paid plan. On top of that the experience even just a few weeks ago was much better then it is now.

And it all boils down to compute, conpute that is required to run these prompts and compute that is available at a given time.

What baffels me with this ever increasing compute shortage, is why companies push not more aggressivle towards where an abundancr of compute is available and accessible across the globe.

It's not in data centers that have to be built with billions of dollars of investment just to catch up.

It's in your home, pocket, drawer.

Dynamic Pricing is coming to Acurast.

The community voted, the referendum passed. Compute pricing on the network just changed fundamentally.

No more flat rates that don't differentiate between phones. Every phone will now be priced automatically based on real on-chain hardware benchmarks, updated every epoch. A fairer system.

Stronger hardware gets better pricing. Developers see transparent, verified rates. And each execution consumes compute fees from the deployment budget.

443'000+ deployments. 243'000+ devices. Every one of them now part of a real compute marketplace that prices itself.

Something is coming to Acurast.

Every block. Every deployment. Every transaction. Fully visible.

Soon. 👀

[Acurast @Acurast]

Growth driven by utility, not hype.

From powering cross-chain operations, to supporting enterprise AI agents handling sensitive inputs, to enabling large-scale web scraping for agentic AI.

Acurast provides a battle-tested execution layer that removes central points of failure and solves real problems.

Decentralization without reliability is just best effort.

Staked Compute aligns incentives: providers stake, liveliness is enforced and failure has consequences. 

Built to be reliable.

What a ride. 🚀

​It’s been 3.5 years of building, countless community events around the globe spreading the word, and over 165,000 onboarded phones. All of this has led us to our next major milestone: the Acurast Mainnet launch.

​Looking back, @Acurast has already grown bigger and delivered a more disruptive impact on real-world use cases than I could have ever imagined when we started. We are turning mobile phones into legitimate, decentralized infrastructure.

​But this launch isn't the finish line. It’s just the start to scale this vision beyond what we see today.

​Tuesday, January 20. We are ready.

​To the early believers who saw the vision before the code was written, the team who built through the nights, and every single person running a node today: thank you. This milestone belongs to you.

[Acurast @Acurast]

Rebels 🫡,

Word is out, TGE coming January, 20, 2026!

[Acurast @Acurast]

The Acurast team is building for the long term, focused on real adoption and sustainable growth, not short term hype.

We believe lasting success comes from strong technology and the continued support of our amazing community.

As we move closer to TGE, the Acurast tokenomics have been updated.

[Acurast @Acurast]

Acurast turns everyday smartphones into a decentralized compute layer by using the secure hardware already built into modern devices.

Jobs run privately inside Trusted Execution Environments (TEEs), results are verifiable, and device owners receive rewards for contributing compute, all without relying on data centers or specialized machines.

@baderyo_o Can we add Acurast again on the Ecoystem page?
