Until now, providing compute to the decentralized cloud required users to take spare phones e.g., upcycled ones with broken screens, dedicating them entirely to the network 24/7. We have received a lot of feedback from the community that they would be excited to participate with their everyday phone as they don’t have access to other phones, creating a hurdle for many who wanted to contribute.

Acurast Processor Lite changes everything.

Why Acurast Processor Lite?

Mobile devices are the most distributed compute units globally, yet they remain vastly underutilized. The Acurast Processor Lite changes this by allowing you to harness the compute power of your smartphone without compromising your daily usage or security.

Key Features of Acurast Processor Lite:

  1. Flexible Participation: You have complete control over when Acurast Processor Lite is active. Simply activate it when your phone is charging and let it work during idle times, like when you’re sleeping.
  2. Isolated Environment: Acurast Processor Lite prioritizes your security and privacy, ensuring your personal information is never at risk. The isolated environment is completely separate from your daily apps and data.
  3. Rewards: By making your phone’s compute power available, you are creating value for developers, and for that, you are rewarded.

There are three types of rewards:

  1. Bootstrapping: Run your Processor, connected to the internet, for a month and earn 250 cACU in bootstrapping rewards. You will earn a fraction of the full reward each hour.
  2. Deployments: Earn cACU when your compute power is used by developers. Developers that deploy to the Acurast Cloud provide a reward for the compute power used. You’ll receive part of that reward when your Processor has been selected.
  3. Cloud Rebellion: Join the Cloud Rebellion and harvest MIST ☁️ points. Become a Rebel and cloud-harvest MIST (points) by completing quests, onboarding Processors, and inviting others to join the Rebellion.
  4. The Acurast Processor Lite is more than just an app; it’s a movement towards a more decentralized and efficient future. By leveraging the power of your everyday phone, you can contribute to a global network that values security, efficiency, and user control.

Join the Cloud Rebellion Program and fight against centralization of compute! By contributing your compute power, you’ll utilize your phone’s full potential and join a community of like-minded individuals dedicated to decentralizing the cloud. Together, we can create a more open and fair digital world.

Don’t let your phone’s potential go to waste. Download Acurast Processor Lite today and be part of the decentralized cloud revolution.
