Qubic Picks Up Serious Momentum: Speed, Scale, and a Proof-of-Work Milestone

Over the past few weeks, Qubic has been on an absolute tear, picking up momentum across technical, educational, and ecosystem fronts. With the recent launch of the Qubic Press Room, it’s clear that this is more than a flash of progress; it’s a coordinated acceleration toward something much bigger.

1. Certik Speed Test: Qubic Enters the Performance Big Leagues

Qubic recently completed a high-profile speed test conducted by CertiK, one of the most trusted blockchain security firms in the space. The results? Qubic's global AI execution layer delivered sub-1 second compute confirmations, showcasing the blistering speed of its distributed network.

This performance is a critical differentiator. In an environment where traditional AI and smart contract platforms face trade-offs between speed and decentralization, Qubic is proving it doesn’t have to be either/or.

2. Qubic Academy Launches: Education Meets Activation

Qubic is not just about building tech, it’s about onboarding the next generation of builders, contributors, and operators. That’s why the launch of Qubic Academy matters.

Qubic Academy delivers accessible resources to help anyone, from curious developers to data scientists, understand and contribute to the protocol. With technical walkthroughs, ecosystem primers, and hands-on guidance, it’s a front door into Qubic’s growing universe. It also positions Qubic as more than a network—it’s becoming a movement.

3. Monero Mining PoC: The First Useful Proof-of-Work Milestone

In perhaps the most headline-worthy advancement, Qubic successfully demonstrated Monero mining using its AI compute network—a world-first in demonstrating what’s called Useful Proof of Work (uPoW).

While traditional Proof of Work burns compute power for consensus, Qubic’s architecture is now enabling decentralized AI computations that also do something, like mining Monero. This achievement isn’t just a novelty; it’s a clear signal that Qubic’s AI network can deliver meaningful output while securing the protocol.

It’s a proof point for the thesis that compute, especially AI compute, should not be wasted. It should be useful, sovereign, and fast.

Why It All Matters: Laying the Tracks for Decentralized AI at Scale

This trio of wins—speed, education, and real-world compute—isn’t happening in isolation. It’s part of Qubic’s broader vision to become the execution layer for decentralized AI. Each milestone compounds the others:

• The speed benchmark validates Qubic’s architecture.
  
  

• The academy opens the gates for growth and contribution.
  
  

• The PoC proves Qubic’s tech isn’t theoretical; it’s working, live, and innovative.

And now, with the launch of the Qubic Press Room, all of this progress is accessible and transparent to partners, developers, and the public.

The message is clear: Qubic is not waiting for the future of AI and decentralized infrastructure to arrive. It’s building it—fast. Join us: https://discord.com/invite/qubic
