Acurast secures $11M to build mobile-based decentralized computing

Acurast secures $11M to build mobile-based decentralized computing

The post Acurast secures $11M to build mobile-based decentralized computing appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Acurast, a startup building decentralized physical infrastructure, announced a total of $11M in funding to date. The company’s goal is to turn smartphones into a global network of distributed computing resources.  Acurast is recovering the DePIN narrative, aiming to build another decentralized network for distributed computing. The company aims for a global mesh of connected smartphones, with confidential verification.  “Mainnet marks the moment Acurast becomes a genuinely open, global compute fabric ready for real-world integration.

The company also gained support from the Web3 Foundation. Acurast has reached its product launch stage after spending years with limited activity and no token trading. Currently, the DePIN narrative remains subdued, but Acurast showed startups are still building.  Acurast has already ran its product in its testnet version, with 146,443 smartphone users onboarded. The incentivized testnet showed distributed computation could scale for enterprise-grade usage. Acurast uses verification for all device computing power Unlike other DePIN projects, which rely on self-reported…
