ACN ANNOUNCEMENTS

A lot moved forward at ACN this month. We launched the Compute Marketplace Private Beta, Agent Forge achieved Google CASA Tier 2 certification, and more than 250 million ACN is now locked on-chain. We also permanently removed another 132,811 ACN from circulation through the June token burn, with the next burn already scheduled. This week, we also sent the community a more personal, forward-looking update over email, sharing some of what has been happening behind the scenes. The response was overwhelmingly positive, which was great to see. Behind the announcements, the team continued shipping across both products every week. Good progress, but there is still a lot of moving parts and things to accomplish.

🗞️ AI News Roundup! Welcome to this week’s AI News Roundup, let’s dive into the seven headlines that had everyone talking! ➡️ Read here: https://x.com/AITECHio/status/2083160273116856364?s=20

Did You Know? Copilot Can Help Fix Your Workflow When a workflow encounters an error, “Fix with Copilot” in Agent Forge 2.0 sends the error logs directly to Copilot for troubleshooting and automatic workflow correction. ➡️ Apply for early access: https://shorturl.at/REZfU

Stop Guessing Your GPU Costs! Most teams know what GPU they need. Far fewer know whether they're paying the right price for it. Our Cost Calculator lets you compare estimated monthly infrastructure costs across hyperscalers and ACN using your own deployment requirements. • Select your GPU. • Enter your node count. • Set your monthly runtime. See your estimated monthly spend and potential savings instantly. Try it yourself: ➡️ aitech.io/compute-marketplace

One Variable. Multiple Workflow Steps. Variables blocks make it possible to store values such as names, IDs, URLs, limits, or configuration details and reuse them throughout a workflow. Agent Forge Copilot can include these values directly within the generated workflow YAML. 👉 Apply for early access: https://shorturl.at/REZfU

The next ACN token burn will take place in 3 days. As part of AITECH Cloud Network’s long-term supply management strategy, a fixed amount of ACN tokens will be permanently removed from circulation through a transparent and publicly verifiable on-chain burn.

> Running AI workloads? This one's for you. We've added three new regions: - US East 1 - US Central 3 - US Central 9 No need to worry about latency anymore. Simply deploy your workloads in the region closest to you. ➡️ aitech.io/compute-marketplace

Everyone is chasing bigger models. The biggest model isn't always the best choice. A 70B model might outperform a 7B model on benchmarks, but if it doubles your inference cost and adds latency, it may be the worst product decision. The best AI products aren't built around the biggest models. They're built around the right balance of quality, speed, and cost.

Still manually moving data, chasing leads, replying to support tickets or building reports? You are competing against teams that have already automated it. Sales. Support. Operations. Marketing. Finance. Internal tools. If the work is repetitive, it should already be running through an automated workflow. ➡️ https://x.com/AITECHio/status/2082073691652010240?s=20

250M ACN Locked! The ACN ecosystem continues to maintain strong community participation, with 250M ACN now staked, representing 12.64% of the total token supply locked on-chain and highlighting ongoing engagement across the ecosystem.

You can build half of Y Combinator's next batch using Agent Forge. ➡️ https://x.com/chatgpteeee/status/2081775933078573118?s=46

One AI Model vs a Complete Workflow! A model can generate an answer. A workflow can turn that answer into action. It can collect data, apply conditions, request approval, update a system, and trigger the next step automatically. Agent Forge 2.0 brings models, tools, data, and logic together in one visual workspace. Apply for early access: https://shorturl.at/REZfU

The biggest waste in AI isn't GPUs. It's over-provisioning. Companies size infrastructure for peak demand. Peak demand happens for maybe 30 minutes a day. The other 23.5 hours? You're paying for hardware that's mostly waiting. The companies that solve utilization will have a huge advantage over the companies that simply buy more hardware.

Why does everyone want H100s? Not because they're the fastest. Because they're the safest choice. Most enterprises don't buy the absolute best GPU for every workload. They buy the GPU they know frameworks support, engineers know how to optimize, and customers trust. Sometimes adoption beats raw performance.
