Cysic isn't just another “ZK infra” project. They're quietly building a full-stack decentralized compute economy, starting with real hardware. I’m talking about custom-designed ASICs that already clock 1.3M Keccak proofs/sec, over 100× faster than many GPU-based ZK systems. They didn’t just theorize it, they built it, tested it, and proved that ASIC+GPU hybrid acceleration can make proof generation and verification nearly instant. But that’s just Phase I. In Phase II, they scaled things up with 4k+ GPU provers, 180K+ mobile verifiers, and 8M+ network transactions, essentially forming the backbone of a permissionless, decentralized compute network. This isn’t a Discord server of ideas; this is real throughput, real users, and real infrastructure. Now, we’re in Phase III: Ignition. And this is where it gets personal. Because now, they’ve opened the doors (invite-only for now) and given people like you and me a chance to contribute hardware, earn rewards, and become part of the very infrastructure layer that might power zkRollups, private AI, verifiable ML, and more. Through their dual-token model, $CYS and $CGT, they’re turning compute into a liquid financial primitive. Not just another token you swap and forget, but an actual stake in infrastructure that settles proofs in real-time. You can verify from your phone. You can provide GPU compute. You can refer others and stack even more testnet rewards. It’s the kind of participatory design that reminds me of early Helium, but with actual hardware edge and ZK-native demand. Sure, there are risks. ASIC timelines are long. Crypto hardware projects sometimes move slower than the software side. And mass adoption from zk projects isn’t a guarantee. But look around, @Succinctlabs already tapped them as one of the first multi-node provers. @Nexuslabs and @Polyhedrazk are building with them. It’s early, but real momentum is already there. This is one of those few projects that could go from “ZK nerds love it” to “infra everyone depends on” in a year or two. If you’ve been shouting “decentralize everything” but still rent compute from centralized clouds, you owe it to yourself to understand what Cysic is building. Owning compute might just become the most powerful unlock of the next decade and Cysic is putting the keys in our hands.

@Cysic_xyz is handing over the keys
