Finally starting to get somewhere — I’ve mined 0.45 $ACU on my phone so far.
What’s worth paying attention to is the entire @Acurast ecosystem and its vision. It’s definitely more than just phone mining ⛏️
Put simply, the ACU you mine is just your ticket in. What’s truly valuable is how it redefines the role of the “phone.”
It sees phones as compute nodes, not mining rigs. And this isn’t just about running random scripts: computations on every phone run inside a TEE (Trusted Execution Environment), so results can be verified and data kept confidential. That’s a real difference. A typical mining network can only prove “I did some work.” Acurast can prove “this computation was done correctly, and nobody snooped on it.”
At its core, then, it’s a compute network wearing a mining costume. Developers can deploy serverless workloads directly onto it — REST APIs, webhooks, LLM inference, confidential data processing, and more. They pay for compute, and both ACU and USDC are accepted. The fact that people are willing to pay for compute carries far more weight than mining rewards.
And this isn’t just a PowerPoint pitch. Around 300,000 compute units are already connected worldwide, across more than 175 countries. The team says it’s the most decentralized verifiable compute network in existence.
Zooming out, it’s taking aim at the cloud market. Compute is increasingly concentrated in the hands of a few companies, and the AI boom is pushing demand even higher. Acurast’s answer is to put a different set of machines to work: instead of building more data centers, use the devices that are most abundant around the world and already come with hardware-level security — phones. The team calls this “Cloud Rebellion.”
In the overall design, mining is more like a “supply-side cold start”: first, use rewards to bring hundreds of thousands of devices onto the network. Once paid workloads start coming in, the network can really get moving.
At that point, phones won’t be mining coins — they’ll be nodes in the global compute market.
It’s Saturday. Crypto doesn’t take a day off, but your hands can: A weekend survival guide for BTC above 82K
Happy Saturday. First, a quick price check: Binance data shows $BTC currently at $82,618, up 1.06% in 24 hours, after reaching an intraday high of $83,528; $ETH is at $2,490, up 0.50%; and $SOL is at $109, up 0.27%. After Friday’s hammer blow, the market has held steady over the weekend, with volatility noticeably narrowing.
There’s a saying I’ve always liked: “In a bull market, patience; in a bear market, wait; in a ranging market, do nothing.” Weekend liquidity is thin, and a sudden wick is more likely to shake you out of your position. So today, rather than discuss market direction, let’s cover three easy but useful things:
1) Reduce your leverage. Weekend price swings can be amplified, and with the same position size, sudden wicks are more likely than on weekdays.
2) BTC’s key level is still 80,000—the dividing line between bulls and bears this week, and an area where previous lows are clustered. If it holds, the market may continue grinding within the 80K–84K range; if the daily close falls below 80K, the next levels to watch are 76K–78K.
3) Keep an eye on 2,400 for $ETH and 105 for $SOL . No need to call a bottom before those levels break; there’s no rush to act before the market gives a signal.
The market will always be here, but a relaxing weekend isn’t guaranteed every time. The above is only my personal opinion and does not constitute investment advice. While checking the charts, you can also take a look at $BTC $ETH $SOL .

Trending: There's fresh drama. Me: Which coin can this be linked to? Balance: Calm down first. Today I saw “100T beats NS — post-match stats” and thought of $SAND in the GameFi sector. The topic brings attention, but not necessarily money. What matters is whether trading volume follows.
Crypto Basics | How do you choose between limit and market orders? A limit order requires you to enter a price first: a buy order will only execute at your specified price or lower, while a sell order will only execute at your specified price or higher. A market order trades price certainty for immediate execution. A limit order is the opposite: you control the price, but the order may not execute. By the way: $BTC is trading at 83002.28 (24h +2.04%). Don't bet all your savings on a single prediction.
This is just my personal opinion; don't treat it as a basis for buying or selling.
“How to view OpenAI solving the four-dimensional Kakeya problem” is trending. Other people check trending topics for gossip; I check them for market moves. In the end, I still only looked at the gossip. $WLD 24h -3.42%. How long do you think this can last?
Stop sleeping! Big moves are happening! An address dumped 262 ETH, then opened a 40x short on BTC worth $25.4 million This news is a bit old…$ETH Let’s see how the market reacts first.

It's taking off, guys! $BTW 1 hours +5%, current price 1.5223. The first pullback after a rally is the most critical: a pullback on lower volume is still healthy, but be careful if it drops on higher volume.

Just my personal take—may not be accurate. Use caution.
When good news comes, I worry about getting stuck at the top; when bad news comes, I worry about selling too soon. Basically, I can’t make up my mind. It started with this: ETH futures open interest across all exchanges fell 5.18% in 24 hours. $ETH 2492.87. Let’s wait and see if the project team has an explanation. Often, it’s the details that determine where things go.

Today’s market-watching trivia: Pearl: Is it really possible to do AI inference and mine at the same time? My reaction to breaking news has three stages: see it, get excited, calm down. This time, I spent quite a while at stage two. The bullish or bearish implications aren’t clear enough; price action still follows the broader market. $BTC currently 82506.01.
Divergence between positions and price generally falls into three types. This time, $ZEC is: positions rising while price falls (24h positions +13.79%, price -10.54%): · Position increase with price flat: long and short positions both grow; it’s an accumulation phase, and future volatility may amplify ▶ Position increase with price decline: often new shorts are pushing the price down; when shorts are crowded, a rebound may occur · Position decrease with price rise: often short covering pushes the price up; the key is whether fresh capital can carry the momentum The current value of positions is about $611 million. One word to describe your view right now?
Today's news flash: The U.S. HYPE spot ETF saw a total net outflow of $9.7044 million in a single day. The Air Force took one look and nodded approvingly. As soon as the news broke, the candlestick chart moved faster than reporters—I was still reading the first line. $HYPE current price 84.37
BTC loses 82K, SOL plunges 6% in a day: This weekend, first figure out what counts as “cheap”
Bulls took another hard hit early Friday. Binance data shows $BTC currently at $81,850, down 1.75% in 24 hours, after dipping to $80,393 intraday; $ETH is at $2,481, down 3.59%; and $SOL took the hardest hit, at $109, plunging 6.3% in 24 hours after bottoming at $105.7. BNB also fell nearly 5%—the broad-based decline suggests macro sentiment is driving the market, rather than bad news specific to any one coin.
What should we expect next week? My approach is “defend first, wait for confirmation”:
BTC: $80,000 is this week’s dividing line between bulls and bears, as well as an area where previous lows cluster. If it holds, BTC will likely trade sideways between $80,000 and $84,000 over the weekend—a healthy pullback. If the daily close falls below $80,000, the next range to watch is $76,000–$78,000. At that point, reduce leverage rather than buy the dip.
ETH: $2,400 is the key level. If the ETH/BTC exchange rate continues to weaken, its rebound will be noticeably weaker than BTC’s. Don’t rush to call it “undervalued.”
SOL: It has the biggest swings—it rises sharply and falls just as hard. If $105 breaks, watch $98. If you want to get involved, wait for a high-volume stop to the decline near $100 before making a move.
Weekend liquidity is thin, making sudden wicks more likely. Consider reducing futures positions to less than half your usual size and keep some cash on hand for spot buys. Don’t go all in on a directional bet during Friday’s night session—the real direction often doesn’t become clear until Monday’s Asian session.
The above is only my personal opinion and does not constitute investment advice. For price monitoring, you can follow $BTC $ETH $SOL .
$BTW 5 minutes with volume surging 19x, down 1.22%, current price 1.3886. With the volume this high, either new capital has come in, or someone is using it to offload shares; you’ll know the direction once you see how the price moves. From a structural perspective, this move should be viewed together with the daily chart structure; abnormal action on a smaller timeframe is often pulled back.
