Good news for a Monday:
$GNUS is heading to San Francisco.
Next month, during SF Tech Week, the Global Innovation Showcase brings together serious founders, investors and tech leaders.
Our CEO, Kenneth Hurley, is speaking as a part of the Web3 panel. Ken's appearing with leaders from @standwithcrypto and @1inch, talking about how decentralised tech, like the $GNUS ecosystem, is poised to disrupt digital ownership and finance.
$GNUS is also proud to be an industry supporter of the Global Innovation Showcase, alongside others including @Tesla.
With mainnet nearing, $GNUS already has a real seat at the table, and that means it's our tech that's positioned to receive next-level attention, opportunity and capital.
So, if you're in San Fran on Oct 6, give Ken a wave! 👋
Follow @GnusAi and bookmark this post. This is what early looks like.

Part 2/3: base:0x614577036f0a024dbc1c88ba616b394dd65d105a Tokenomics 🏑
One of the things that makes @GnusAi so exciting is the project's tokenomics.
base:0x614577036f0a024dbc1c88ba616b394dd65d105a is the currency that runs the Super Genius ecosystem. When a customer pays for AI processing, that payment is split three ways. About 70% goes to the person whose device did the computing work. About 20% goes to the developer who built the app or game. The remaining 10% is burned, meaning it's removed from circulation forever.
Since this burning happens with every single job, the total supply keeps shrinking over time. The idea is that each remaining token becomes more scarce, and hopefully more valuable.
base:0x614577036f0a024dbc1c88ba616b394dd65d105a also uses something called a mint and burn model. New tokens can be created when needed to fund growth, but the burning from everyday use is meant to outweigh that over time. The token exists on more than one blockchain, including $ETH and ethereum:0x455e53cbb86018ac2b8092fdcd39d8444affc3f6.
Older crypto mining pays you just for guessing random numbers, which has nothing to do with real work. base:0x614577036f0a024dbc1c88ba616b394dd65d105a rewards are tied to actual AI work being completed instead. So the idea is that the token's value comes from real usage, not just speculation.
This is a hockey stick waiting to happen.

Today, one way or another, we will get clarity 🚀
Either the Clarity Act passes Congress, or the SEC steps in and gives regulatory confidence to crypto.
So, the news this week that $GNUS is about to release its mainnet could therefore not have come at a better time.
$GNUS is a blockchain-based decentralised computing project that uses idle computing power from personal devices, like smartphones, for AI/machine learning tasks, rewarding users with $GNUS tokens for participating in the ecosystem. Think of it as a decentralized GPU compute farm. Developers obtain a patented SDK package from $GNUS and include it in their applications, leveraging the ecosystem. The result is insanely cheap, private, decentralised processing power, complete with burn function tokenomics.

People really thought @GnusAi would never deliver, but the team quietly and self funded kept on developing the protocol until it's finally on mainnet.
A decade long architecture, carefully thought out, at a perfect moment to start capturing the inference market and competing with protocols who may have got the idea just a few months back. base:0x614577036f0a024dbc1c88ba616b394dd65d105a is more than one thing, it's a whole ecosystem with a flywheel designed to have ever increasing token demand and buybacks that will keep funneling its growth.
Fun times ahead
GNUS Mainnet is at the finish line.
Thank you to everyone who has remained patient, supported the project, and continued to believe in the GNUS vision throughout this journey.
Yesterday 237/237 tests have passed.
- Part of the devs have already been assigned to develop apps like GeniusTube and others on the GNUS ecosystem.
- The devs that are still working on GNUS, are wrapping up the final edges and corner cases of the system. Hereby the actual details so you can make up your own mind on how trivial the last 3 items are, or we can basically say it’s there already.
1. Secure bridging: the final fix was made and it’s stable. We’re just finalizing a few smaller edge cases around the Validator Registry and making sure updates are handled correctly in very unique situations.
2. Secure peer registry: we’re almost closing the lid on that one. This means we can specify which trusted wallets/accounts are authorized to validate sensitive information, rather than allowing validation by unauthorized nodes.
3. Child wallets. Expected to be integrated shortly.The safest way to implement GeniusWallet into games, keeping your main wallet protected while token gains are redirected to the parent wallet.
But, when mainnet is live we just have an ecosystem live. That's why we already moved to the next step a while ago, to launch apps and utility on the ecosystem. That’s when we want the whole world to know about GNUS and know our system, products and apps
The next chapter of GNUS is already taking shape.
More updates will follow...

📢Let me introduce to you who's behind this huge project $GNUS and what is @GnusAi
1/ Who is @SuperGeniusEth (Kenneth Hurley)?
linkedin.com/in/klhurley
- Practical Physicist, serial tech entrepreneur, dad, and self-described "jack-of-all-trades." With 25+ years in software engineering, he's worked on platforms for NVIDIA and Google, contributed to video games, and now leads decentralized AI innovation.
2/ He's the CEO & Co-Founder of GNUS.ai (Genius AI / Genius Ventures).
- His vision: Democratize AI by turning the world's idle devices into a massive, distributed supercomputer cheaper, more resilient, and less controlled by big tech.
3/ What is GNUS.ai?
- A DePIN (Decentralized Physical Infrastructure Network) that harnesses idle GPUs/CPUs from billions of devices phones, PCs, consoles (Xbox, PlayStation), IoT, etc. to power AI/ML workloads.
- It runs cross-platform via an SDK (Windows, macOS, Linux, Android, iOS, etc.).
4/ Why it matters:
- Massive cost savings they claim 80% cheaper than traditional cloud.
- Rewards participants with GNUS tokens for sharing compute.
- Hybrid blockchain for fast transactions, payments, and incentives (tokens burned for scarcity).
- Focus on privacy, censorship resistance, and accessibility empowering individuals and devs over centralized giants.
5/ How it works:
- Users install SDK or run in apps/games to contribute idle power.
- Tasks (AI inference, training, etc.) get distributed across the network.
- Results validated on-chain providers paid in GNUS.
- Supports sovereign models, agentic AI, and integration into games/apps.
6/ GNUS token:
- Utility token on multiple chains (Polygon, Ethereum, etc.
- Used for payments, in-app purchases, rewards. Multi-chain and expanding.
- you wonder why the chart looks like this, well GNUS.ai suffered a $1.27 million exploit on May 5, 2024, primarily via a Discord hack that led to a token-minting attack. Ath of 197$ per token imagine, sitting at 0.5$ cents now. This is probably the best R/R you have this year honestly. - Mainnet is coming very soon, if you want to frontrun the masses try to accumulate a good bag in this range lows. 90% chances to do well very very soon. DYOR.
- This project aims for ubiquity like electricity for AI powering everything from research (for example, medical) to consumer apps.
7/ Hurley is vocal about building for the long term:
- real revenue/utilization, mobile-first scaling, and brain-inspired systems on top of the network. He's active on X sharing updates, tech deep dives, and big-picture AI thoughts.
8/ resume:
- In a world of hype-heavy AI projects, GNUS.ai is betting on decentralized infrastructure as the foundation for cheaper, more open AI. Worth watching if you're into DePIN, crypto x AI, or distributed compute.

Mainnet coming soon 👀 #AI #GNUS
Every AI breakthrough depends on one thing:
Infrastructure.
While most focus on the applications, GNUS.ai is building the layer that powers them all.
A patent-backed network that transforms idle global compute into intelligent infrastructure designed to reduce costs, improve scalability, enhance privacy and support the next generation of AI innovation.
From enterprise AI and robotics to gaming, healthcare and cloud services, the future will demand more than compute.
It will demand efficient, verifiable and scalable infrastructure.
That's where GNUS.ai comes in.
The foundation beneath the future.

ZERA Protocol V3 is here.
This is a major protocol and UX upgrade for ZERA Private Cash.
Users now see a single online private balance, with no manual split flow, as well as a separate offline private balance. Under the hood, the new 2-in-2-out circuit handles split, change, merge, dust absorption, and note consolidation automatically.
That means the wallet can feel simple on the surface, while the protocol keeps doing the hard ZK accounting underneath.
V3 also introduces a hardened stealth-note pipeline with per-note ownership keys, plus a cleaner separation between online spendable notes and offline vault notes — an important foundation for cold-storage notes and future offline payments.
This means:
✅ Cleaner UX
✅ Send any amount instantly
✅ Stronger note privacy
✅ Better wallet abstraction
✅ Built for offline payments
A full technical article breaking down the V3 architecture is coming soon.
Next up:
The additional asset drops, while development now shifts toward the ZERA mobile app and with it the full trustless offline flow.
True digital cash is not a feature. It’s a stack, and ZERA V3 is a major step forward.
Welcome to the new Zero Knowledge Era.

The next evolution of the ZERA Protocol is almost here.
The merge update has grown in scope, now including extra security hardening and protocol optimization that brings the backend closer to ZERA contracts v3.
Setting up better UX and the next wave of asset support.
Zoon.
Current focus:
Making private balances feel far more natural to use with the note merge update.
This is the next major UX upgrade for ZERA.
Right now, private balances can be spread across separate notes, with no merge functionality yet, and manual splitting still needed before some sends and withdrawals.
The merge update abstracts all of that away.
What it means in practice:
✅ One private balance per asset, not a stack of notes.
✅ Deposits and incoming transfers merge automatically.
✅ Sends and withdrawals split automatically when needed.
All of it happens in the background.
Under the hood, this is enabled by an upgraded 2-in-2-out circuit, so merge, split, and transfer all share the same privacy shape on-chain.
Better UX. Even stronger privacy.
Current protocol support: SOL, USDC & ZERA.
Once this update goes live, the broader rollout of additional asset support begins.
Likely first in line: $wBTC, $ZEC.
With one of the strongest community suggestions so far in the meme category: $NEET.
What token do you want to shield, hold and transact privately with?

AI adoption isn’t slowing down.
Returns are.
Compute costs keep rising.
Vendors control pricing and access.
Scaling becomes a financial and operational risk.
That’s not a tech problem.
It’s an infrastructure problem.
GNUS.ai changes the economics.
A software defined, decentralized compute layer that lets businesses access scalable AI power without being locked into fixed costs or centralized control.
Operate leaner.
Scale faster.
Protect margins.
This isn’t an upgrade to the current system...
It’s a replacement!
GNUS.ai does not compete. It disrupts!

We are building something very unique on top of @GnusAi.
I can't wait to show everyone. It's a game changer.
Teaser:
“Stable intelligence core, continuously improving personalized cognition.”

TL;DR: Last weeks relay update unlocked 100% private P2P transactions + anonymous withdraws.
ZERA + SOL support is expected to be added to the Protocol in the next few days.
Meanwhile, here’s a quick Alice & Bob trace check after last week’s relay update on a Deposit → Private P2P → Withdraw flow.
To keep it simple, we used 3 fresh wallets:
1️⃣ Alice Fdqyu9bcpSNVHgNwrvadJzRZFR1Np7vc32ZRpzFGFFLD
2️⃣ Bob main HqtG2rv6JRYBd9neueeD2niqqNfG1WcbRNJxwN24hMkg
3️⃣ Bob 2nd DF6DiQrSifqvMuhzsZt47TNFgtRuw3TRBiQ7akvcEetg
Protocol Actions:
▶️ Alice deposits 100 USDC
▶️ Alice privately sends 50 to Bob
▶️ Bob receives in his main wallet
▶️ Bob withdraws 20 to a fresh 2nd wallet
So what’s actually visible on-chain now? ⤵️

🚨 BREAKING: $GNUS FORESHADOWS BETA 3.6 RELEASE AHEAD OF MAINNET:
In a major new update, $GNUS CEO Kenneth Hurley has announced that $GNUS is closing in on releasing its much anticipated Mainnet.
“Beta 3.6 is shaping up to be our strongest version yet,” Mr Hurley wrote.
Two final pieces remain before $GNUS can launch the network’s Mainnet. The first is to do with ETH P2P bridging. On this, after recent testing, 441/441 tests were successful, an encouraging fact.
The second is to do with the network’s consensus engine, which is receiving final polishes.
“Once complete, if no surprise bugs appear, we’ll be ready to release and go live – games, wallet, the whole ecosystem,” wrote Mr Hurley.
“Thank you for the energy and patience. We’re so close.”
Internal team sources are confirming that this is an accurate reflection of the project’s status, and that more exciting updates are on their way.
$GNUS is building a decentralised ecosystem that turns unused GPU from computers, phones and gaming consoles into a global network for processing AI and machine learning requests. Devices powering the network earn $GNUS tokens.
Watch this space. It may very well be $GNUS season again.

Private transactions between wallets now possible on Solana using ZERAs Private Cash Addresses.
A closer look at last week’s MVP drop: Private P2P.
Most "privacy" on Solana still falls back to withdraw-to-address (recipient + metadata leaks) or multi-step send flows that leave trails.
Our P2P is different: one atomic in-pool transaction, the sender’s note is nullified, and two new encrypted notes are created, all inside the vault. No stepping out. No re-deposit choreography.
Why it’s so hard to deanonymize:
✅ Your Private Cash Address has zero link to your Solana wallet: it’s an X25519 keypair derived from a wallet signature, and the public key becomes your private address.
✅ Notes are encrypted with NaCl box using a fresh ephemeral key every send, meaning even two payments to the same person looks unrelated.
✅ Recipients discover incoming notes via trial decryption, the chain never learns "who owns what."
While we have immense respect for those building privacy on Solana, we are proud to be the first to achieve one-shot, in-pool P2P with full privacy.
To our knowledge, this remains an industry first.
This is the difference between hiding balances inside a pool and moving value privately between people.
Note: Right now, the sender’s wallet still signs the private transaction, so on-chain you can see that a wallet performed a P2P action, but the amount and recipient remain private. The upcoming P2P Relayer removes that footprint too, completing the "cash-style" flow with no on-chain sender trace.
What’s coming next:
✅ More assets:
At least SOL + ZERA alongside USDC.
✅ P2P Relayer:
A decentralized signing/relaying network that can submit transactions for you — enabling withdrawals with minimal linkage after the initial deposit, and removing the sender’s on-chain P2P footprint.

I am told I need to be doing more "marketing" and to tie it to the completion of the MVP, which is in it's final stages, we're working on front end, and audits now, final push to get it out the door and into everyones hands. So, why is it so important that we get it right, because most of crypto security is still “hope the backend doesn’t get owned.”
ZERA starts from the opposite assumption: the network will be hostile, so the math has to make your money useless to attackers.
Our MVP ships a zero‑knowledge cash layer on Solana where:
– Assets sit in a unified zk pool, not scattered per‑user accounts
– Amounts are hidden with Pedersen commitments ‘vG+rH‘‘vG+rH‘
– Correctness is enforced by zk‑SNARKs, not trust in infra
– Deterministic nullifiers kill double‑spend without killing anonymity
We’re starting with coins. But this is the same security primitive stack we’ll use to protect any high‑value state: salaries, supplier flows, cross‑border payouts and, eventually, critical real‑world rails.
We are in the final stretch and clean up on the MVP, I care about getting this done, if you care about cryptography‑first security, you’ll want to be in on this, and for everyone who has been on the ride with us, the wait is almost over. zeralabs.org/

On today’s stream:
"Mainnet privacy is the priority, and it’s measured in weeks…"
The near-term deliverable is the first release of ZERA’s online, on-chain privacy: shielded balances and private transfers. A practical MVP built around useful ZK-verified primitives that we can ship, harden, and iterate on.
We’ve pushed through some of the harder architecture work (anonymity set + tree structure). What’s left is tightening the deposits/withdrawals flow and polishing the user experience.
Other key takeaways:
✅ We’re designing this to work without Zera being in the flow of funds (no “we run the relayer” model).
✅ Offline cash isn’t theoretical. We’re already shipping prototypes: dashboard → offline balance → desktop app → physical token.
✅ We’re testing what "private money that works off-grid" looks like (mesh-style transfers).
Also announced: ZERA Medical. A parallel application of the same ZK engine and privacy stack for medical record + payment rails. All being explored without pulling focus from mainnet delivery, aimed to unlock grants and enterprise demand while the core protocol ships.
This is the first natural extension of the legal guidance we’ve received: build ZERA as broader privacy infrastructure, not something limited to “money” alone.

The ZERA Desktop App, used with our Physical Tokens & NFC readers, is now available as installers for Mac and Windows.
Use the ZERA Dashboard (web wallet) to create USDC offline balances (cash vouchers), then use the Desktop app to move that offline balance to and from ZERA Physical Tokens (or any compatible NTAG-based NFC tag).
”Enabling cash-like privacy and portability for your digital assets.”
The app supports ACR122U and other PC/SC-compatible readers, with a drag-and-drop workflow for managing and transferring offline balances.
This is the first iteration of the ZERA offline cash stack and the foundation of the coming ZERA Desktop Suite: a privacy-focused control center for asset management, extended Vault asset support, hardened local storage, deeper hardware wallet integration, and (later) optional offline mesh connectivity via Meshtastic.
