December 19, 2024 – Zug, Switzerland

Acurast, leader in decentralized confidential cloud computing, announces the launch of Acurast Processor Lite for iOS – now available on the Apple App Store.

This application allows iPhone users to share their device’s computing power with Acurast’s decentralized confidential cloud network, offering an opportunity to earn rewards in return.

By harnessing the advanced processors in mobile devices, Acurast makes it possible for regular phones to operate as powerful computing providers.

With this new expansion to iOS, Acurast’s ecosystem grows bigger, welcoming iPhone users into a network that’s changing the way cloud computing is done.

This shift marks a step forward in accessibility and control over how compute power is managed worldwide.

Acurast also takes a unique, sustainable approach – repurposing mobile phones with damaged screens or unused older models into affordable compute resources.

These upcycled devices become cost-effective alternatives to traditional servers, bringing sustainability into the heart of cloud infrastructure.

Users providing compute power through Acurast Processor Lite can earn rewards in the form of cACU tokens.

Each user can earn up to 250 cACU per month in bootstrapping rewards simply by running the processor connected to the internet.

Additional rewards are earned whenever developers deploy applications on the Acurast Cloud and utilize the user’s processor resources.
