150K Phones and 500M On-Chain Transactions: One Step Closer to the Decentralized Future of Compute
Zug, Switzerland , November 17, 2025 — in the lead-up to the Mainnet and TGE launch, Acurast has reached two new major milestones: more than 150,000 smartphones are now powering the world’s most decentralized compute network and more than 500M transactions have been processed on-chain. What began as a network with a single device and a couple of transactions, has grown exponentially, reaching these new milestones even before Mainnet and TGE have launched.
The growth in onboarded phones and volume of on-chain transactions has been made possible by the dedication of our rebels who believed in the vision of Acurast, despite the fluctuating market conditions.
This has placed Acurast as one of the fastest growing and adopted DePIN projects in the Web3 space. Besides the onboarded phones and transactions, Acurast has currently managed over 124,000 compute deployments. The growth and success of Acurast has proven that your smartphones, especially the spare ones collecting dust, can do so much more than you think.
Do More With Staked Compute
Your phone can also engage further with the network besides using it to provide compute. You can also participate in the Acurast staked compute.
Staked compute is vital for building a resilient, decentralized ecosystem in which you have two parties contributing to the network strength: committers and delegators. Committers provide reliable computation by staking tokens and running hardware, while delegators support them by lending tokens and sharing rewards. In return for your stake, with or without hardware, both committers and delegators get rewarded.
This collaboration ensures fairness, accountability, and efficiency, as failure to deliver your compute as a committer results in slashing. By aligning incentives, staked compute enhances trust, scalability, and long-term value creation, making the network more secure, participatory, and sustainable as adoption and engagement grow.
