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. 👇 youtube.com/watch?v=d2_Aap-Z…

Builder Spotlight: a private LLM running on a single phone, reachable as a standard OpenAI endpoint by @nodeghostai 🔥 No hosted API, no rented cloud GPU. The model runs on one attested Acurast processor. The Acurast tunnel makes that locally-bound model reachable at a public HTTPS URL, and NodeGhost serves it as a drop-in OpenAI-compatible endpoint through Bring Your Own Model. It's an ordinary OpenAI call. The machine answering it is a phone. One quantized Qwen2.5-3B model, one tunnel, one registration step. Deployable on Canary today, and honest about what a 3B model does on a mobile CPU. Full breakdown: acurast.com/blog/builder-spo…

Longer cooldown. Stronger hardware. Bigger stake. Every variable you control drives the rewards you receive for staking. The Acurast network rewards those who commit. Got no hardware? No problem, you can even participate with your tokens only. Discover more: acurast.com/staking/

A clip from our CoinMarketCap live discussing the use cases Cargo unlocks. Beyond web scraping, builders can now run AI agents continuously inside a Cargo container, no dedicated infrastructure needed. Get started with Cargo for yourself: docs.acurast.com/developers/…

Cloudflare just confirmed it: agents now outnumber humans on the web. 57.4% of all traffic is automated, most of it AI agents browsing and acting for us. The crossover wasn't expected until 2027. It happened this week. Every one of those agents runs somewhere. Right now that means a handful of centralized clouds. One outage, one policy change, and part of the agentic internet goes dark. Acurast runs a network of 260,000 smartphones across 175 countries. Real devices, no data centers, no single point of failure. Acurast is the compute layer the agentic internet actually needs.

Compute is scarce. Old smartphones are not. @Acurast closes that gap, turning the most abundant piece of personal hardware in the world into productive, rewarded infrastructure. Your spare phone isn't dead. It's just waiting.

Numbers Protocol is joining @Acurast for an X Space tomorrow. Subject: verifiable AI agents. What it means to run autonomous agents on infrastructure that can prove what it did. Numbers Protocol brings the provenance layer. Acurast brings the decentralized compute layer. The overlap is the accountability question: when an agent acts, is there a record?

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. read more: acurast.com/blog/partnership…

Cargo runs full Linux containers on Android phones. Which means you can deploy almost anything to the network now. What's the first thing you'd spin up? Whatever you picked, drop the actual idea below. Our favourite idea gets a walkthrough.
41% A bot / automation
18% An API or backend
18% AI / model inference
24% Something weird (tell us)

Confidential RWAs may be the missing piece in a $100T real-world asset market. Join Acurast & @iEx_ec as we unpack why real world assets need confidentiality to truly scale, and what the infrastructure stack looks like when privacy is built in from the ground up. The shift to confidential compute for RWAs is here. Tomorrow, May 29th, 1pm UTC. Set a reminder: x.com/i/spaces/1nGeLLqOAwAKX…

Everyone is rushing to run AI. But very few are asking: who controls the infrastructure running it? With Acurast, your AI runs securely on a global network of decentralized phones, without relying on a single company to own the infrastructure or your data. Sovereignty isn't a feature. It's the foundation. acurast.com/blog/network-and…

Developers can now connect the Acurast network directly to the web. With the Acurast Tunnel, you can create a secure path between processors and the internet to: • Expose services to a web domain
 • Access processors through a remote terminal in real time Two-way connection. No traditional infrastructure required. Now testing on Canary. Mainnet coming soon. Learn more: docs.acurast.com/acurast-pro…

Your phone is idle. Meanwhile, cloud companies generate hundreds of billions of dollars per year doing what your device can help power for free. With Acurast, you can use your phone to provide compute, and get rewarded for it. At the same time, developers use this to run decentralized workloads. Everyone wins. No cloud giant. No middleman. No vague invoices. 👉Join now acurast.com/?utm_source=x&ut…
