.@Acurast builds a cloud from what’s already in everyone’s pocket.
Each phone acts as a trusted compute node, processing data, verifying transactions, and running AI workloads.
► Metrics
▸ 140K+ smartphones across 140+ countries
▸ 1M+ daily on-chain transactions (465M+ total)
▸ $10.9M raised from @CoinList, @gavofyork, and @Sigma_VC
▸ Live mainnet processing verifiable workloads globally
▸ Compatible with major ecosystems including @ethereum, @arbitrum, @base, @0xPolygon, @BNBCHAIN, @tezos, @Aleph__Zero, @AstarNetwork, and more

► Why it matters
Traditional clouds like AWS and Azure are costly and centralized.
$ACU flips that model by using phones that are 117x cheaper than servers, with hardware-level verification and privacy at scale.
Recent partnerships with @linera_io and @Pact_Swap expand its reach, combining verified compute with microchains and DePIN liquidity.
The future of compute will run on billions of connected devices, not in data centers.

► What is Acurast?
Acurast turns smartphones into decentralized compute nodes powering AI and Web3 workloads.
It replaces data centers with a global, people-powered cloud.
Acurast removes the limits of centralized systems by:
▸ Reducing cost: phones are ~117x cheaper than servers
▸ Increasing decentralization: millions of phones across 140+ countries
▸ Boosting security: hardware-based verification for every workload
▸ Empowering users: people earn from devices instead of paying data centers
—
► How it Works
❶ Connect your smartphone to Acurast Hub.
❷ Run compute jobs: your phone securely runs workloads in trusted hardware.
❸ Earn cACU and MIST from compute and community activity.
❹ Convert cACU → $ACU after the TGE.
Participation modes:
▸ Lite: use your personal phone passively.
▸ Core: use a spare or second-hand phone for 24/7 compute.
