What Makes It Different
Here are five key differences between Qubic and most other chains:
1
Feeless Design
There are no fees to send native coin transactions. Transactions are validated by Computors and processed without cost to the user. That means no worrying about gas or wallet balances to interact with apps.

Useful Proof of Work (UPoW)
Miners don’t solve hashes. They do real work — like AI training. The output of that work feeds into Qubic’s AI system, called Aigarth. (fig 1.1)

Fixed Set of 676 Computors
Computors validate transactions, execute smart contracts, and finalize ticks. A tick is confirmed when 451 out of 676 Computors agree. It’s a fast, deterministic consensus model that doesn’t rely on staking or wealth-based selection.

AI Layer
The computation done by miners helps train and evolve a decentralized AI system — Aigarth. That system lives on top of the protocol.

Emission-Based Incentives
QUBIC has a fixed supply. Rewards for miners and Computors come from the protocol’s emission schedule — not from user fees or staking.
