Coin No. 6 : $AKT
#AKT #AkashNetwork #DePIN #DecentralizedCloud #GPUmarketplace
Akash Network is a decentralized marketplace for cloud computing (DeCloud / Supercloud) that allows anyone to rent out and lease computing power (CPU, GPU, storage) based on a reverse auction model.
Simply put:
Akash is the "Airbnb for servers and GPUs." Instead of paying inflated prices to AWS, Google Cloud, or Azure, developers and AI companies rent real power directly from providers around the world — cheaper, faster, and without intermediaries. Everything is transparent, on the Cosmos SDK blockchain.
What is the essence of $AKT?
Akash solves a huge problem of 2025–2026: the shortage and high cost of GPU/computing for AI, ML, inference, rendering, and other tasks. Centralized clouds have monopolized the market, Akash decentralizes it and makes it accessible.
Key advantages:
- up to 70–90% cheaper than traditional clouds (especially on H100/H200/B200)
- permissionless — anyone can become a provider (data center, home server, edge node)
- reverse auction — clients set a price, providers compete → the market finds the minimum itself
- real utility: renting GPUs for AI-training/inference, container/VM deployments, stable payments
- focus on AI & DePIN — millions of requests per month, growth in utilization
Foundation evaluation: 8.7 / 10 ⭐️
Pros:
- mature project (mainnet since 2020, Mainnet 14 in 2025 — major upgrade)
- real usage: thousands of deployments, GPU marketplace is actively growing
- AKT is used for staking (network security), paying for compute (settlement), governance
- Burn Mint Equilibrium (BME) in 2026 — improves tokenomics: burning AKT when purchasing compute credits (ACT), deflationary effect with rising demand
- Privacy-Preserving Compute and Virtual Machines (VMs) in 2026 — expansion for enterprises and complex workloads
- roadmap 2026: shared security migration, CosmWasm smart contracts, NVIDIA B200/300 integration
- partnerships and adoption: AI startups, DePIN projects, enterprise migrations
Cons:
- strong competition in DePIN (Render, io.net, Gensyn, etc.)
- inflation of AKT is still noticeable (though BME and reduction proposals will help)
- dependence on the growth of demand for decentralized compute
- sector volatility (correction after the AI hype of 2025)

(Market cap ~105 billion $, share ~0.7%)
Major technical updates and events 2025–2026:
- Mainnet 14 (2025) — massive upgrade, elimination of technical debt, stable payments
- Burn Mint Equilibrium (BME) rollout (2026) — burning AKT when using compute → deflation with network growth
- Privacy-Preserving Compute (Q1 2026) — confidential computing for sensitive data
- Virtual Machines (VMs) launch (2026) — supporting full-fledged VMs, not just containers
- Shared Security migration (2026) — moving to a more efficient security model
- Starcluster and protocol-owned compute — expanding GPU supplies (NVIDIA B200/300)
Partnerships and ecosystem:
- thousands of GPU/CPU providers worldwide
- growth in AI inference/training, DePIN applications
- integrations with the Cosmos ecosystem, IBC
- interest from AI startups and enterprises (migration from AWS/GCP)
Changes in AKT tokenomics:
- AKT — staking, settlement, governance
- BME (2026): tenants buy ACT (stable credit ~$1 compute), burning AKT → deflationary mechanism with increasing usage
- inflation reduction proposals (5–7%) are being discussed by the community
Context for 2026:
After the correction in the AI/DePIN sector, Akash remains stable due to real usage (GPU rental, deployments) and a focus on cheap capacities for AI. The demand for decentralized compute is growing — Big Tech restricts access, Akash opens it up. This is an infrastructure asset for the era of decentralized cloud.
