Quantus Weekly: GPU Mining Breakthrough and ZK Refactor

Quantus Weekly: GPU Mining Breakthrough and ZK Refactor

This week the team achieved a breakthrough in mining performance. Our new GPU miner is now running ~9x faster than the CPU version.

We also completed a refactor of our ZK-aggregation circuit, allowing us to delete thousands of lines of code.

While in UAE, the team met with advisors and investors. These meetings solidified our product vision and clarified tokenomics and token launch strategy. There was also meaningful BD progress made to support the token launch.
