NuNet, a decentralized peer-to-peer network for sharing computing power, has announced the launch of Cardano-based payments.
NuNet made the announcement following a successful demonstration of decentralized compute payments on the Cardano blockchain. The event confirms real-world functionality rather than a conceptual roadmap, signaling readiness for broader adoption.
Key Points
- NuNet has launched Cardano-based payments for its decentralized peer-to-peer compute network.
- This support follows the release of Device Management Service (DMS) v0.9.0, which expands contract settlement beyond Ethereum.
- The system allows seamless switching between Ethereum and Cardano within a single payment flow.
- While Cardano payments are now live, the network’s native NTX token will continue to drive coordination and orchestration.
- Adding Cardano support represents a key milestone ahead of NuNet’s mainnet launch, scheduled for early March.
NuNet Expands Contract Payments Beyond Ethereum
NuNet positioned itself as a multi-blockchain decentralized compute marketplace but relied primarily on Ethereum for settlement, in line with broader Web3 standards. However, earlier this month, the project reached a key milestone with the release of Device Management Service (DMS) v0.9.0.
With this update, NuNet added Cardano support to its payment system, extending settlement beyond Ethereum and strengthening its multi-chain architecture. As a result, users can now deploy compute jobs and pay directly with ADA, while the NTX token continues to drive network coordination and orchestration.
Moreover, the system allows seamless switching between Ethereum and Cardano, delivering a production-ready payment flow from deployment through settlement. Overall, this upgrade builds on earlier infrastructure improvements and positions NuNet for its live phase with full multi-blockchain support.
NuNet Gears Up for Mainnet Launch
According to NuNet, activating Cardano payments represents a pivotal step toward its mainnet launch. The mainnet infrastructure is scheduled to go live on March 2, 2026, marking the transition from testing to a fully operational decentralized compute economy.
In a statement, the NuNet team emphasized that its infrastructure is now ready for global adoption. Following the deployment of Cardano-based payments, the project stated that it has showcased its ability to deliver seamless payments, multi-blockchain support, and real-world utility.
