Unetwork - The Global Physical Compute Marketplace

Unetwork already operates one of the largest composable, people powered edge network on the planet with more than 40,000 devices online across 170+ countries in 1,500+ cities, performing Proof-of-Work and generating rewards.

The Unetwork Global Physical Compute Marketplace allows anyone - businesses, developers, AI agents - to post tasks that run on your devices. The same edge network that powers the network today will now serve demand from every industry that needs real devices in real locations.

If a company is launching an app in South Africa, they need to know what their users actually experience - not what a data centre simulation tells them. If someone is monitoring prices across 20 countries, they need real devices loading real pages. If they need to verify that something physically exists at a specific location, they need a real phone with real sensors in that place.

No VPN can fake this. No cloud server can replicate it. Only real devices in real hands in real locations - and that is exactly what Unetwork License Operators provide every single day.

How it works

A buyer posts a task to the marketplace and specifies where it needs to run - which countries, which carriers, how many devices. The Unetwork's gateway matches the task to available devices and dispatches it. Your device executes, returns the result, and you earn rewards. The entire cycle takes seconds.

Three ways buyers access the network:

Marketplace website for non-technical users who want to point and click
API for developers building Unetwork's functionality into their own platforms
MCP for AI agents that autonomously dispatch tasks to non synthetic devices

What this means for operators:

More demand flowing through the network means more tasks, which means more reward potential. Higher value tasks earn proportionally higher rewards. The more consistently your device is online, the higher your reputation score, and the more premium work you receive.

Keep your device online. Keep your app updated. More details on specific task categories coming in future announcements.

Unetwork - Rewards System Update

During routine network monitoring, we identified operators running thousands of synthetic devices through VPNs, emulators, and /24 IP ranges. These devices were impacting the commercial value of the network.

Those accounts have now been addressed, and the network is recalibrating. Please bear with us during this process as reward distribution normalizes for genuine operators.

Synthetic activity undermines network commercial value
Protecting network integrity protects earning potential
Recommended: 10-20 devices per network subnet
New task types coming soon: S&R, WiFi & SIM powered
Exciting releases planned for coming months

As the network recalibrates, tasks will begin flowing back to legitimate ULOs rather than being consumed by synthetic operators. Your existing telemetry tasks will continue running normally.
