Acurast

$ACU is now available on even more exchanges! Find us on: @BinanceFutures @okx @Bybitplus acurast.com/tge/

Acurast governance is live. Every ACU holder can now vote on protocol changes directly on-chain, runtime upgrades, parameter changes, the future direction of the network. Referenda follow the OpenGov model. Vote Aye, Nay, or Abstain, and lock ACU with conviction to multiply your voting power up to 6 times. 240'000+ phones. 140+ countries. The people who power the network decide where it goes. Active referenda will be visible on the Hub: hub.acurast.com/governance Governance Docs: docs.acurast.com/acurast-protoc…

Where AI Agents Meet DePIN. The next wave of Web3 is here. Join us for a conversation with @Acurast × @fortytwo × @SecretNetwork Exploring the intersection of AI agents, decentralized compute, and what’s coming next. Compute. Privacy. Ownership.

We want to hear from builders: If you had instant access to 240’000+ processors with hardware-level security, what would you build? Best answers get highlighted. Most creative gets respect. Drop your ideas below.

Cloud compute is costly, centralized, and trust-heavy. Most Devs see no alternative to Big Tech. We Interviewed Acurast founder @a_d_c_ Alessandro De Carli (@Acurast) on turning smartphones into a global decentralized compute network you can earn from. Timestamps: 0:09 Decentralized compute powered by smartphones 1:09 Acurast mission: onboard the masses without “feeling crypto” 2:36 Secure element and TEE basics 3:16 Verifiable compute and anti cheat via device attestation 4:16 Confidential compute offload work without tampering or inspection 14:51 How to get involved install the app opt in foreground compute 23:41 OpenClaw on Acurast containers enable it soon

1'000 lootboxes. 43 seconds. Sold out. Claiming will be enabled within the next 24 hours. Winners will be able to claim their rewards on the lootbox page in the hub: hub.acurast.com/rebellion/loot… The rest of you, stay sharp

the ACU lootbox drops in 24 hours. "but I haven't started yet" You can stack MIST in under a day. Quests are live right now. No excuses. No extensions. March 16. 16:00 UTC. Start now hub.acurast.com/rebellion/

There are over 11 billion smartphones on earth. More devices than people. Most of them are sitting idle. In drawers. In pockets. Doing nothing. Billions of powerful processors wasting compute every second of every day. Acurast turns that idle power into the world's most decentralized cloud, and rewards you for it. 235'000+ phones. 140+ countries. And we're just getting started. Join now: hub.acurast.com 💚

149'000'000 $ACU already staked. The network is being secured by 1'568 delegations across 1'097 stakes. Current staking APR: 23.61%. Participate in securing decentralized compute and receive additional rewards. Start Staking ACU: acurast.com/staking/

Everyone is talking about smarter AI models. But the real shift is agents. AI systems that don't just respond. They plan. They coordinate. They execute. Continuously. This changes the infrastructure layer completely. Millions of autonomous agents running 24/7 cannot rely on a handful of centralized data centers. The agentic internet will require compute that is: Globally distributed. Verifiable. Resilient. Compute everywhere. Across millions of secure devices. That is the infrastructure shift decentralized networks like Acurast are built for. Full read: acurast.com/blog/network-a…

The first ever ACU lootbox drop is March 16, 16:00 UTC. 1'000 boxes. 10'000 ACU. 3-month linear vesting. First come first served. You'll need MIST to grab a box, start stacking before the drop: 1. Complete quests in the Cloud Rebellion 2. Post about Acurast on X to climb the Mindshare Leaderboard 3. Refer friends for extra MIST Previous drops sold out in minutes. This time: real ACU is on the line. Start stacking MIST now > hub.acurast.com/rebellion 💚

January 2nd: 300'000 deployments. March 12th: 425'000 deployments. +125'000 new deployments. +42% growth in 10 weeks. Not a bull market spike. Not an airdrop farm. Just developers deploying real workloads on real phones across 140 countries. Since TGE and Mainnet launched in January, the network hasn't slowed down, it's accelerated. More developers. More workloads. More compute. Every week. The community keeps building. The network keeps growing. We're here for the long run.

When someone asks "how can phones be secure enough for real compute?" This is the answer. Your phone has a vault inside it. Not an app. Not software. Actual hardware. It's called a TEE. Trusted Execution Environment. When Acurast runs compute on your phone, it runs INSIDE this vault. Your phone's OS can't see it The phone owner can't see it Not even Acurast can see it That's not a privacy policy. That's physics. Apple calls it Secure Enclave. Samsung calls it Knox. We call it the foundation of confidential computing.

Exactly this. The agentic internet will require compute that is: •⁠ ⁠globally distributed •⁠ ⁠verifiable •⁠ ⁠resilient Relying on a handful of centralized clouds for millions of autonomous systems introduces massive systemic risk. This is precisely the infrastructure challenge decentralized compute networks like Acurast are solving.

The Acurast Lootboxes return. Multiple successful drops. Thousand of Rebels claimed loot. Now a special edition drop is coming. 16.03.26 16:00 UTC More soon.

The Acurast Trader Map campaign is officially wrapped. 100K in rewards - distributed to all eligible participants. Check your wallets. Big thank you to @leagueoftraders and to everyone who traded, competed, and helped spread the word about $ACU.

You're carrying more compute power in your pocket than NASA used to land on the moon. But big cloud providers want you to rent *their* servers instead. The Cloud Rebellion has a better idea. 233’624+ Phones. Zero Data Centers.

How staking works on Acurast, the simple version. 1. 70% of the rewards distributed on the Acurast network go to participants who stake. The largest share of the rewards. 2. When you start a stake, you choose your compute amount, the amount of tokens ‘at stake’ and the cooldown period: the time you wait to unlock your stake after you decide to ‘unstake’. 3. No hardware? No problem! You can also delegate a stake to someone with the hardware using your tokens. And you still get a portion of the rewards! 4. Staking rewards can be liquid, or you can choose to add the rewards to your existing stake to build up your rewards for the long term. 5. Uptime matters and consistency is rewarded. If you fail to commit to the promised compute, you will be slashed. Otherwise, keep getting those extra rewards and help the network become more reliable! Want to start? Here's the path: 1. Download the Acurast Processor app and connect your phone 2. Go to staking on the Acurast Hub 3. Fill in the parameters 4. Start staking 5. Monitor your stake health and collect rewards!
