🧠 Cloud Computing and AI Gigabrains

It’s the rise of the robots, and 0G Labs is helping lead the charge, introducing its ITO launchpad for AI teams and releasing its Chain v3.0.3 update. 0G Labs is also working with NTU Singapore on a joint research hub, as 375ai launched its 375edge in New York and Miami.

Speaking of labs, CUDOS opened its accelerator to support AI builders, as the Grass network officially processed over 100 million scientific papers. Theta Network also released some updates for its agentic Discord bot, as Livepeer hosted a panel at DevConnect in Argentina.

Clouds don’t have to mean overcast weather, as Acurast shines bright on the DePIN scene with updates to its token conversion mechanism, a new lootbox launch, and cACU transferability via Canary. AIOZNetwork also enjoyed over 300,000 downloads, as DecentralGPT added a full changelog for update tracking.

🗺️ The Cartograph Connection

DePIN is seriously taking flight, with LayerDrone announcing its upcoming mainnet launch on Base and Wingbits upgrading its map with flight path replays. Aircraft can be loud, but so an DePIN users, evidenced by Silencio’s latest milestone of over 720,000 hours of voice recordings. 

Staying connected is essential, and XNET Mobile’s 4 terabytes of daily offloaded data helps you stay tethered. Additionally, with Dabba Network experiencing an 83% surge in $DBT burns and Flux launching its latest version, you have options for staying connected.

Arkreen continues to crush it on the green energy front, deploying batteries to Kenya and burning over 5.2 million $ARKE tokens. Heads up, the final claim window for the Arkreen Lite miners stays open until December 12th, and a new staking round kicked off this week on November 13th.
