OptimAI October Recap: Scaling the Network, Expanding the Team, and Igniting Global Growth
October marked a defining chapter for the OptimAI Network - a month where leadership met momentum, community met scale, and the foundation for the next evolution of decentralized, agentic AI came to life.From onboarding new leaders and launching community initiatives to accelerating technical milestones and global presence, OptimAI continues to grow as a movement - powered by the people, built for the future of intelligence.
🌟 Key Highlights from October
Leadership Expansion: Strengthening Our Global Vision
We were proud to welcome Ricardo Casanova as Chief Communications Officer (CCO).
With extensive experience across AI, Web3, and strategic communications, Ricardo brings a strong vision for storytelling, partnerships, and global positioning — helping shape OptimAI’s voice as we scale our impact and community presence worldwide.
We also welcomed Myin Zow as Head of Business Development, leading our efforts in partnerships, ecosystem growth, and strategic collaborations. Myin has worked in Web3 for over decades, leading business development and in charge of Institutional B2B business at OKX and Gala in South East Asia. A former finance professional at Merrill Lynch and Fidelity, he now drives growth at OptimAI.
📈 Network and Community Growth
October was a record-breaking month.
- 425,000+ registered users
- 714,000+ total node installations (Lite + Edge Nodes) across 179 countries
- Millions of data contributions processed through the OptimAI Network
https://explorer.optimai.networkWe also expanded our community presence across multiple social media platforms:
- Discord:https://discord.com/invite/j9wtCzeH6R
- LinkedIn:https://www.linkedin.com/company/optimainetwork/
- Facebook:https://www.facebook.com/OptimaiNetwork/
The numbers tell a powerful story: the world is watching, joining, and building with us.
🤝 Strategic Partnerships
This month, OptimAI announced several strategic collaborations across AI, compute, and Web3 ecosystems. These alliances extend our technical reach, amplify our network capacity, and strengthen the backbone for a decentralized infrastructure that enables next-generation agentic systems.Each partnership brings us closer to an open AI ecosystem - where compute, data, and intelligence flow freely between people, not platforms.
🎯 Community Quests
To celebrate and reward our growing community, we launched the first OptimAI Quest Campaigns — empowering supporters to earn rewards for contributing to OptimAI’s visibility and growth. The engagement was remarkable, with thousands joining to complete quests, share content, and spread awareness.This initiative marks the beginning of community-driven growth, where every contribution counts toward building real value and real rewards.
🌍 Expanding Global Presence
From Asia to Europe and North America, the OptimAI name continues to spread through new partnerships, coverage, and recognition among thought leaders shaping the future of decentralized intelligence.The momentum we’re witnessing today reflects the growing global belief in a community-powered AI ecosystem — one that values transparency, inclusivity, and collaboration over control.
🚀 What’s Coming in November
⚙️ Core Node Rollout
The OptimAI Core Node begins its phased rollout - introducing our Web3 Search and Compute Engine running directly on real community hardware. This milestone transforms the OptimAI Network into a global distributed AI infrastructure, enabling contributors to power data crawling, embeddings, and compute workloads directly from their machines.Each Core Node brings us closer to a living, learning network — one that grows smarter with every participant.
The upcoming Core Node will be available across all platforms for Desktop PC
🔍 Launch of the Web3 Search Engine
November will mark the official debut of the OptimAI Web3 Search Engine - a decentralized, transparent, and contextual way to explore and interact with global information. Powered by the OptimAI Core Node network, this feature transforms how AI agents and developers access, analyze, and verify real-time data — the foundation for a new era of open, verifiable intelligence.

⚡ New Partnerships on the Horizon
New collaborations are already underway, bridging OptimAI with leading innovators across AI compute, data networks, and agentic systems. Together, we are shaping the infrastructure that will define how decentralized AI evolves — faster, fairer, and powered by the people.
🧩 The Road Ahead
Every line of code, every node online, and every community contribution brings us one step closer to a world where AI is truly decentralized — open, verifiable, and human-aligned.In October, we didn’t just grow. We accelerated the movement — scaling the OptimAI Network into a foundation for the next generation of intelligent systems.November will be about activation — putting that infrastructure to work.
Real builders. Real data. Real AI.
Built for the People, by the People.
