TLDR

  • Qubic's Neuraxon scored 0.18 on the ARC-AGI-3 benchmark, surpassing Grok and approaching ChatGPT and Claude on a test that neutralizes brute-force compute advantages.

  • The Anna training task reached zero error, confirming the convergence method works. Mining paused for Epoch 221 to mark the achievement.

  • Outsourced Computing passed end-to-end testing. Repositories are public on GitHub. First mainnet code ships next week; full feature set targets end of July.

  • A new TypeScript SDK entered public beta, opening Qubic development to the JavaScript ecosystem.

  • Two strategic partnerships (fiat ramp + merchant card payments) are in final contract review with a July launch target.

  • Vottun Bridge Liquidity group is building a proposal targeting $100-200K TVL, with a quorum vote on July 29.

The July 9 Qubic All-Hands session covered science, core tech, incubation, and business development. The scientific team brought benchmark results from a competition where no frontier AI model has cracked 1%. Core tech reported a convergence milestone, a full-stack security sprint, and verified outsourced computing tests. Incubation consolidated around existing products. And BD presented a 90-day plan backed by the largest pipeline the project has seen. For context on prior milestones, see the June 25 All-Hands recap.

Qubic Scientific Team: Neuraxon Takes on ARC-AGI-3

The headline: Qubic's Neuraxon architecture is competing on ARC-AGI-3, the interactive reasoning benchmark from the ARC Prize Foundation (launched March 25, 2026).

Think of it as a puzzle game with no instructions. The AI agent enters an environment, sees shapes and colors, and has to figure out the goal entirely through trial and observation. Humans solve these puzzles reliably. Every major AI model at launch scored below 1%. The benchmark was designed this way: it strips away the advantages that large language models rely on, from massive training data to parallel solution generation, and tests whether a system can actually learn something new in real time. For the technical paper, see the ARC Prize Foundation's publication.

Over six days and seven Kaggle submissions, the Qubic scientific team iterated configurations daily. The best run scored 0.18. For comparison, Grok 4.20 scored 0.1%. ChatGPT sits around 0.20, Claude around 0.22. These figures come from different evaluation tracks, so direct rankings carry caveats. What matters: a two-person team with a biologically inspired architecture, no pre-training pipeline, and limited compute produced a meaningful signal on a benchmark where the largest AI labs have yet to break through.

The team will continue daily submissions through September 13 while preparing for presentations in Japan and at the AGI-26 conference in San Francisco (July 27-30).

The Neuraxon Intelligence Academy also published Volume 11, covering how AGI is defined across psychology, neuroscience, and the tech industry. Neuraxon Game of Life Live continues in Session 5, tracking evolutionary patterns across 26.5K total Neuraxons.

Qubic Core Tech Updates

Anna Reached Zero

Anna, a tiny native program, around 150 KB, with no internet access and no tricks reached zero error on its task.

It holds a small trinary network in memory and trains it on a deliberately simple task, adding two numbers.

In plain terms: the method the team has been developing was given a test problem, and it solved it completely. This confirms the approach converges cleanly, and the broader Qubic AI research builds from this foundation.

To mark the achievement, the community voted to pause mining for one epoch (E221). The Qubic network kept running normally: transactions processed, smart contracts executed, validators earned their usual emission. Mining and network operation are separate duties in Qubic's architecture. The network does not require active mining to function.

Security, Releases, and Developer Activity

The past two weeks brought a coordinated security push. A cryptographic patch (SchnorrQ) rolled across four repositories. A memory safety fix landed in the core. The network indexer (Core-Bob) received eight fixes addressing connection and stability issues. All changes shipped in a coordinated release on July 8.

Three mainnet releases landed in two weeks, with 30+ commits and 7 merged PRs on qubic/core. Four smart contracts received stability fixes. Across the full Qubic GitHub organization: 72 public repositories, 702 commits in the past 30 days, and 113 merged PRs. Year-over-year, commits from January through July grew 87% (2,998 in 2025 to 5,619 in 2026).

The Q3 Qubic Core Tech (QCT) funding proposal is live on-chain, requesting approximately $84,500/month for July through September, a 15.5% monthly reduction from the previous period. Computor vote expected by July 15.

Outsourced Computing on Qubic: End-to-End Verified

Outsourced computing is the third pillar of Qubic's infrastructure. Smart contracts handle on-chain logic. Oracle Machines bring external data in. Outsourced computing lets the network send tasks to external processing power and return results on-chain. Think of Oracles as the eyes and ears; outsourced computing is the hands. For a technical deep dive, see the Tech on Deck AMA recap.

The mock flow passed end-to-end testing. Both repositories (oc-machine, oc-mock-service) are now public on GitHub. A dedicated testnet launches next, with the first mainnet code expected next week and the full feature set targeting end of July.

Qubic TypeScript SDK

The qubic-typescript SDK entered public beta. It gives JavaScript and TypeScript developers direct access to Qubic's core primitives, smart contracts, RPC endpoints, and wallet tooling, with all cryptographic functions built in natively. No external dependencies. Templates for wallets and vaults are included.

Qubic Incubation Update

Vottun Bridge Liquidity

A working group is building a proposal to improve liquidity on the existing Vottun Bridge. The initial approach targets $100,000-$200,000 in total value locked, split between stablecoins and wQubic, with a 6-to-12-month commitment period. Shareholders and computors (via the CCF) would partner as shared liquidity managers.

Solana Bridge and Tick Unlocked

The incubation board is consolidating resources around the existing Vottun Bridge before expanding to additional chains. Solana Bridge development is paused while the current bridge establishes adoption. The development team (Avicenne Studio / Tokenoya) was praised for strong delivery and community engagement throughout.

A new project entered the Qubic incubation program: Tick Unlocked, an analytics tool by David49 offering verified on-chain data, real-time wallet tracking, whale alerts, and custom dashboards. The tool is already built. Incubation is covering four months of product-market validation. Contact: hello@tickunlocked.com for pricing details.

Qubic Business Development

Pipeline and Exchange Outreach

The BD pipeline reached 85 total leads, up from 61 last month. The warm category grew from 9 to 31 in four weeks, driven by a new AI-powered outreach system feeding verified contacts into Pipedrive.

Q3 Strategic Plan

A 90-day plan covering July through September was submitted to the Strategic Board, organized around three pillars across the USA, APAC, LATAM, and EU. User Accessibility focuses on exchange listings, fiat ramps, card payments, and DEX liquidity. Ecosystem Growth targets developer onboarding, quickstart documentation on docs.qubic.org by August, and an x402 proof-of-concept. Community aims to activate regional leads and host local meetups across priority markets. Each pillar has defined KPIs, giving the board clear metrics to track through the quarter.

Project Gateway

Two strategic partnerships, one for fiat on-ramp and one for merchant card payments, reached final contract review. Commercial and marketing terms are agreed. Contracts are in legal review. Launch target: July 2026.

MiCA Compliance and EU Market Access

A service provider is engaged to handle the MiCA whitepaper submission for EU compliance. Contract terms are negotiated, including favorable adjustments to pricing and liability clauses. The remaining step is establishing a legal association to act as the signing entity, a process currently in progress. The MiCA whitepaper preparation runs in parallel so that submission can happen as soon as the entity is in place. EU market access is targeted for Q4 2026, with Qubic exchange listing preparation already underway.

Qubic Community Update

The community team launched "The Weekly Pulse," pairing Qubic ecosystem insights with marketing updates. A mentoring framework for active volunteers is being relaunched. The Head of Marketing position remains open, with Popeye serving as interim lead through end of July.

What Comes Next for Qubic

Outsourced computing code reaches mainnet within days. The bridge liquidity proposal goes to Strategic Board on July 16. Fiat ramp and card payment partnerships target a July launch. The scientific team presents in Japan and San Francisco (July 27-30). Furthermore, the QCT Q3 funding vote closes around July 15.

Developer output is up 87% year over year. The pipeline is the largest it has been. Qubic's science is producing competitive results on benchmarks where the largest AI labs remain below 1%. The infrastructure roadmap is on schedule. The next Qubic All-Hands is in two weeks, same time, same place. Follow @_Qubic on X for updates, or join the conversation on Discord.
