We are thrilled to announce that the Autonomys community has reached the Mainnet Phase-1 Space Race Escape Velocity target of 210 petabytes (PB) of total pledged storage, activating on-chain $AI3 farming rewards. This achievement is a testament to the strength, determination, and unity of our global community as we continue to push the boundaries of decentralized storage and infrastructure.
Thanks to the incredible efforts of our farmers, and contributions from the community, Autonomys is able to balance its goals of robust network security and accessibility for all. Together we have built a truly decentralized, community-driven network that stands as a foundation for the future of AI and blockchain innovation.
This historic milestone was marked by the solution range adjustment in block #213696, where the network reached and then surpassed the pledged storage required to activate rewards. >300PB are currently pledged to the Autonomys Network across 2,000+ farmer nodes. Every byte of storage pledged strengthens the network, enhances its security, and takes us one step closer to realizing our vision of a decentralized, human-centric AI infrastructure. Farmers earning $AI3 tokens for their contribution ensures their hard work and trust in our vision are recognized and fairly rewarded.
To every farmer, developer, ambassador, and community member: thank you! This success is yours, and the journey wouldn’t be possible without your passion, creativity, and dedication. Together, we’re proving that decentralization can be a powerful force for innovation and collaboration. Let’s keep the momentum going as we step into the next chapter of Autonomys! Stay tuned for updates as we prepare for Mainnet Phase-2. The best is yet to come!
While we celebrate this moment, the journey doesn’t end here. With the successful conclusion of the Space Race, our focus now shifts toward Mainnet Phase-2, which is just over the horizon. This next phase will bring even more opportunities for our community to engage, grow and strengthen the network. From new initiatives to advancing the infrastructure with DecEx domains, there’s so much to look forward to as we move closer to realizing the full vision of Autonomys.
The Autonomys Network—the foundation layer for AI3.0—is a hyper-scalable decentralized AI (deAI) infrastructure stack encompassing high-throughput permanent distributed storage, data availability and access, and modular execution. Our deAI ecosystem provides all the essential components to build and deploy secure super dApps (AI-powered dApps) and on-chain agents, equipping them with advanced AI capabilities for dynamic and autonomous functionality.
