Let's talk about the $AKT math.

Current price: ~$0.82
All-time high: $8.08 (April 2021)
That's -90% from ATH.

But here's what's different now vs 2021:

In 2021 — AKT had hype but no AI narrative.
In 2026 — AKT has hype AND the biggest
narrative in tech: AI compute demand.

The 2021 cycle: $8 ATH from speculation.
The 2026 cycle: real revenue, real customers,
real GPU demand.

If AKT just revisits its old ATH:
$0.82 → $8.08 = +885%

If AI compute demand goes parabolic
(and the data says it is) — the next cycle
might not stop at $8.

Anthropic just hit $965B valuation.
OpenAI valued at $852B.

The AI giants need GPUs.
The world needs cheaper GPUs.
Akash provides them on-chain.

The math is wild. The narrative is real.

NFA. DYOR. But pay attention.

Billions of dollars in GPUs are sitting completely unused right now

Greg Osuri, the founder of Akash, built the Airbnb of compute to put all those idle GPUs to work.

"The Amazons, Googles of the world, they're like hotels, which are usually expensive.”

"There is lots of compute that's unevenly distributed, owned by people, corporations, companies, that is supposedly dedicated only for them, but most of them don't use them."

[Greg Osuri 🇺🇸 @gregosuri]

Very excited to bring Akash to robots with Peaq.

Physical AI is a frontier where decentralized AI excels.

[Jorge Cuban @JorgeCuban91]

A clear path for Akash $AKT exponential growth is to become a leading provider in OpenRouter, currently accounts for less than 0.1% of the volume, imagine if it reaches somewhere close to 10%.
The pmf and demand is there, crystal clear. It's time to take it.

A decentralized AI compute play just outran 99% of the crypto market this month

$AKT, the native token of @akashnet, is up 72% on the month and leading CoinMarketCap's Broad Market category despite a 12% pullback Saturday testing $0.595 support. The DePIN GPU marketplace lets users rent NVIDIA H100s for $1.49/hour vs $43K outright.

Founder Greg Osuri presented at the Economist Impact AI Compute Summit in Amsterdam this week. Recent integrations with Venice ai and FLock io target decentralized AI inference, the same vertical NEAR and Sahara AI are also rotating into.

[Greg Osuri 🇺🇸 @gregosuri]

AKT is the only way to pay for compute on Akash. Any other abstraction, whether credit cards or invoicing, will market-buy the exact amount of AKT and burn it to pay for compute on Akash

$AKT is the currency of compute

[Stefan @hyggemethat]

Brand new updates added to the Country Phone Input Field Component for @framer

More controls, better UX, bug fixes. Still free for everyone :-)

[Passage @passageio]

Access to @akashnet powered worlds is coming soon in our open beta!

We've been leveraging Akash GPUs to run custom events for some time, but now we're opening Akash-powered worlds to everyone in our open beta launching this summer!

⚡️ Industry-leading graphics
💸 Up to 70% GPU cost savings
🔥 Unreal Engine worlds from any device in 1 click

Join us on Thursdays at 11am EST during our weekly community call for the latest!

[Lex Avellino @lexavellino]

We've been cooking for some time on our open beta.

It's been a slow burn, but we've never stopped, and this is our top priority for this summer launch.

We've removed every obstacle for creators to have the most immersive worlds possible.

There are no downloads.

No apps.

No loading screens.

Just instant access to interactive Unreal Engine worlds from any device.

The one barrier we have faced from the beginning was hardware costs. Every user gets dedicated cloud GPU power to be able to access Passage instantly from any device.

That bill stacks fast, and we've continually looked for ways to optimize this final accessibility hurdle.

@akashnet GPUs lower costs for end-users by up to 70% over AWS compute in our testing.

This is a game-changer, and it's taken some unique tooling to connect all the pieces, but @gregosuri and the Akash team have made magic, and the experience is constantly improving for us as builders.

Join us on Thursdays at 11am during our weekly community call if you want to see what this magic is like first-hand.

[Akash Network @akashnet]

.@Forbes just named Akash Network as the core AI infrastructure powering the rise of "0-person companies," calling out decentralized compute as the layer that eliminates the need for centralized cloud providers entirely.

[Greg Osuri 🇺🇸 @gregosuri]

Akash Homenode just got a supply boost

[Greg Osuri 🇺🇸 @gregosuri]

@unusual_whales We purpose-built Akash Homenode exactly for home datacenters.

I proposed this to Congress in my testimony as a solution to the data center energy crisis. (https://t.co/IFAlO1Rqs5)

[Greg Osuri 🇺🇸 @gregosuri]

https://t.co/9gnXdUVKVC processed 3.5 billion tokes per day on an average in the past 7 days.

Every token processed burns a portion of $AKT.

[The Rollup @therollupco]

Greg Osuri built the case for decentralized AI in three layers in under 5 minutes.

Layer one: access.
Anthropic's Claude is the best coding model available. OpenClaw is the most successful open-source project in history. Anthropic just announced they're banning OpenClaw usage. The most powerful model cutting off the most loved tool. The company that controls the best intelligence can revoke your access whenever their interests change.

Layer two: transparency.
You have no idea what biases Anthropic has built into Claude. If AI models directly impact how you think, the decision tree needs to be visible. Closed-source models with hidden biases making decisions that shape your worldview isn't a feature, it's a risk.

Layer three: compute.
Amazon may be picking winners in AI by controlling compute allocation. Cloud companies stopped being neutral marketplaces and started giving GPUs to the companies they've bet on. Amazon overwhelmingly backing Anthropic might have contributed to Claude's dominance. The cloud is no longer a utility. It's a kingmaker.

@gregosuri's conclusion: intelligence should be free like water and air.

Decentralized AI isn't ideology. It's the only architecture where the model can't ban your tools, the biases can be audited, and the compute isn't allocated by a company picking favorites.

[Akash Network @akashnet]

With the threat of energy lockdowns looming across the country, only decentralized infrastructure can guarantee that AI keeps running.

Founder @gregosuri warned Congress last year about the imminent threat of hyperscalers straining the grid.

The future of AI cannot depend on a single point of failure.

[CoinGecko @coingecko]

$FET and $AKT are among the most searched coins in the past 3 hours alongside Bitcoin.

[Greg Osuri 🇺🇸 @gregosuri]

BME is now live on Akash.

Congrats, core devs and community, for the sheer hard work and grit leading us to this pivotal moment for Akash, with $AKT's value now directly driven by Akash's usage.
