Roadmap

Major milestones in the 2025 roadmap include:

  • Genesis Mainnet Launch, TGE (Q3 2025).

  • Governance Activation for Decentralized Community Involvement.

  • Codename Cargo (Compute Containers) for modularized workloads, making serverless deployments even easier to deploy and scale.

  • Codename Cray (Compute Clusters) cluster of hundreds of devices enabling high-performance compute tasks capable of running even the largest LLMs available. Effectively mitigating the vertical compute limitation arising from working with phones.

  • Furthermore, the future roadmap includes:

  • Codename Bazaar (Compute Economy), creating an active decentralized compute economy for developers to distribute entire software solutions seamlessly without limitations.

  • Codename Rice (Compute Futures), innovating long-term decentralized compute economic strategies. Allowing compute providers to leverage their infrastructure and support their future scaling.

Acurast’s growth strategy in 2025 is about activating a network effect at scale, where more phones bring more compute, more compute brings more builders, and more builders bring more value into the ecosystem. It’s a positive-sum loop powered by real-world demand, seamless integrations, and decentralized ownership, creating a compute marketplace flywheel.

Here’s how Acurast is scaling fast—and sustainably:

1. Mainnet Launch → Permissionless, Global Access​

With the Genesis Mainnet and TGE launching in Q3 2025, Acurast becomes fully open, decentralized, and permissionless. Anyone with a smartphone can start earning as a compute provider. Anyone with workloads, from solo builders to AI startups, can deploy confidential applications on a decentralized network backed by hundreds of thousands of real, verifiable phones.

Mainnet is Acurast’s on-ramp to true global accessibility, where compute is no longer gatekept by geography, capital, or centralized infrastructure.

2. Seamless Native Integrations with Major Web3 Ecosystems​

We’re embedding Acurast directly into the world’s most active blockchain ecosystems, Solana, Ethereum, Polkadot, and beyond, so web3 developers can access decentralized, confidential compute as easily as calling a smart contract.

These native integrations mean:

  • Developers can spin up secure compute from within their dApp flows
  • Protocols gain censorship-resistant backends
  • Ecosystems unlock AI, automation, and zero-knowledge tasks without centralized dependencies

This makes Acurast not just complementary, but critical infrastructure for Web3’s next phase.

3. Expanding Beyond Web3: Serving SMEs and Enterprises​

While we’re crypto-native at our core, we’re not limited to Web3. We're actively supporting SMEs and enterprise use cases — especially around confidential AI, confidential compute, and secure edge deployments:

  • Allowing enterprises to tap into AI without the fear of exposing business-critical and proprietary data by tapping into confidential AI compute
  • Workloads requiring confidential compute without the complexity or cost of standing up traditional cloud infrastructure
  • Enterprises in emerging markets lacking access to reliable data centers

Acurast offers these users a confidential, on-demand, scalable, and cost-efficient alternative to centralized compute.

4. Hyper-Onboarding of Smartphones at Global Scale​

Our onboarding strategy is rooted in mutual value creation. Initiatives like the Cloud Rebellion, major partnerships, and region-specific programs are designed to scale us from 70,000 devices to over 1 million, converting dormant phones into high-value, secure nodes.

Each new phone adds network supply, but also unlocks new regions and new use cases, especially in areas where traditional compute is inaccessible.

5. Unlocking New Economic Layers​

With milestones like:

  • Cargo (modular compute containers)
  • Cray (clustered high-performance compute)
  • Bazaar (open compute marketplace)
  • and Rice (long-term compute futures)

We’re not just scaling tech—we’re building an open compute economy, where compute is programmable, tradable, and ownable. Each upgrade compounds utility, revenue, and token demand.

6. Community-Driven Governance & Protocol Expansion​

The Acurast community will shape protocol decisions post-mainnet through on-chain governance and a self-replenishing treasury. This turns users into stakeholders, and stakeholders into contributors.

*In short: Acurast's 2025 growth strategy creates a flywheel:

More devices → more demand → more utility → more contributors → more value.

And at the center of that flywheel is a single insight: you don’t need a data center to be part of the future of compute—just your phone.

Now is the time to join.
