September 25, 2025, Amsterdam – With the throbbing centre of the crypto scene and its artificial intelligence in the context of its houses being built on the decentralised infrastructure, the native token of Nosana, NOS, is travelling at an unchecked pace.
In the present day, the project has announced an unprecedented growth in its decentralised marketplace of GPUs, stating that it has received more than 50,000 independent GPU hosts since the introduction of the mainnet in January 2025.
This influx of players has boosted the network with AI inference workloads and allows developers to scale smoothly, as well as providing a profitable source of income to everyday hardware owners. Within the wider crypto market crash, NOS gained 5.3% to hit $0.7523 on a big 24-hour trading volume that soared to $1.85 million, as more investors venture into AI-based DePIN projects.
The Nosana platform, which is based on Solana’s high-speed blockchain, democratises the availability of GPU resources, which turns unused consumer devices into a world-scale compute grid. Users are given an opportunity to rent their hardware to perform AI work, such as running large language models or creating images with stable diffusion, and receive NOS tokens.
NOS token is not merely a tool of exchange; it drives the policy-making process, network security, and encourages people to join this peer-to-peer economy. Having a circulating supply of 83.4 million tokens, a fully diluted valuation of more or less 75 million, Nosana is establishing itself as a pillar in the emerging blockchain and machine learning nexus.
Pricing Upgrade and Trading Intelligence
The rise of NOS today is the culmination of an excellent week, and the token has increased by 5 per cent against the global crypto market, which has scratched its way back out of the recent declines.
The volumes of trading on large exchanges such as MEXC and Bybit increased by more than 20%, highlighting the growing liquidity and attractiveness of the token to both retail traders and institutional participants seeking exposure to AI. The 24-hour movement varied between 0.7088 and 0.7654 to maintain a level of 0.7217 at noon, according to the real-time data of the main trackers.
This performance is in direct opposition to the broader altcoin ecosystem, in which most of the tokens are struggling with the long-term bearish effects of macroeconomic backdrafts such as ongoing inflation fears and regulatory actions against stablecoins. However, the utility-based model by Nosana offers a buffer with an increase in the demand for affordable artificial intelligence computing due to the worldwide shortage of GPUs.
According to technical analysts, NOS has overcome major resistance of $0.72, and the momentum measures, such as the Relative Strength Index, are at 65, indicating that it has no need to rise to overbought levels. In the near term, it is projected that the market moves to an uptrend of $0.82 by the beginning of October due to the Uptober seasonal factor and the Solana ecosystem tailwinds.
The market capitalisation of the token is currently estimated at about 62.7 million, which makes it one of the top 700 cryptocurrencies in terms of market capitalisation. There is a limit to the supply of 100 million NOS, which is limited only by scarcity systems that can increase value with adoption.
To traders, the increase in volume, which is up 5.5 per cent as compared to yesterday, is an indication of the long-term interest, especially among AI enthusiasts who are no longer confined to centralised cloud producers such as AWS or Google Cloud.
Mainnet Momentum and Ecosystem Growth
The new achievements of Nosana are not just the numbers in the books; they are transforming the process of AI innovation. The mainnet activation of the platform in January 2025 brought the full operation of the platform, and a decentralised GPU marketplace was launched, which reduces costs by up to 2.5 times when compared to traditional providers.
The 50,000+ announcement of GPU hosts today is not only a vanity measure, but also a statement of the accessibility of the network. Gaming rigs and consumer-grade hardware, including normal laptops, are now also used as real-world workloads in AI, powering the metaverse development process, as well as open-source CI/CD pipelines.
The main principle of this growth is the crowd-computing ethos of Nosana. Models such as Llama 2 or Stable Diffusion can be pinned on inference jobs by developers without substantial initial investments, and host groups can generate high yields, in many cases 6 times more efficient than mining options.
The integration of the platform with Solana guarantees the speediness of transactions and reduces the costs, so it becomes the attractor of projects in the metaverse and the Web3 areas. Partners, including the latest case with Ocada, to supply chain optimisations powered by AI have proven to achieve concrete efficiency improvement, with the pilot projects saving 40% in compute costs.
In retrospect, Nosana has not failed to make strategic moves in its own way. It was launched at the Solana Breakpoint conference in 2021 and became one of the first projects on decentralised DevOps. At the beginning of 2025, the mainnet launch turned desires into reality, and it was now possible to rent a GPU and get staking rewards.
The flagship of Nosana, which is also known as the Galactica program, facilitates collaboration through computing sharing and has now emerged as an effective instrument to open-source participants, rewarding them with an NOS running a code check or creating container images- no PhD needed.
Buzz Community and Developer
The Nosana community is abuzz, and the social channels are ablaze with excitement regarding the host milestone today. On forums such as X, developers are discussing the success stories of implementing AI agents on the grid, and there is glorification of the zero-lock-in model, which releases them of vendor dependencies.
Passive hardware can be monetised by enthusiasts, which Nosana makes easy with its tools, converting passive hardware into active sources of income. Discussion boards are filled with suggestions to help users better their node setups, such as tweaking the firmware mode to achieve higher uptime rates or suggestions to get the most out of staking APY, which is currently being offered at 15-20 per cent.
Nosana is open-source, and this ethos is very strong in developer circles. On forums, there are discussions on getting the platform to work with such popular frameworks as PyTorch or TensorFlow, and a collaborative spirit that is reminiscent of Solana at the level of high throughput.
The world is gathering at global gatherings, including tech scenes of Amsterdam, or online Solana hacks, to learn the place of Nosana in scalable AI. An example of a success story: a small indie game company used the grid to create metaverse assets and reduced the development time by 60 per cent, and had NOS staking finance their next release.
This grassroots power is transferred into governance, which enhances decision-making on resource spending and protocol enhancements. Recent resolutions, such as expanding support of medium-sized businesses in the next chapter, the so-called Sombrero, due to be released sometime in H2 2025, have sailed through with almost unanimous approval, a good indicator of a maturing, inclusive DAO.
Prospects: Forecasts and Problems
NOS is receiving a rosy picture on the analyst side, as short-term outlooks are looking at reaching $1.07 by the end of the year, as a result of the AI hype and the potential parabolic performance of Solana. Longer perspectives are even more promising: some parts of the forecasts have NOS at $3.50 in 2030, a 365% increase over present values, provided it continues to adopt DePIN and achieve new advances in encrypted computation.
The Jupiter and Wormhole integration of tokens, as well as the privacy-oriented architecture of Arcium, may open the doors to encrypted AI loads, which will propel Nosana into enterprise radar. Nevertheless, volatility is an apparition. As the RSI has neared overbought at 80.93 recently, it is not unthinkable that the index will be pulled back to $0.68 should the general feeling of the market turn negative.
Regulatory obstacles concerning decentralised computing may create headaches, especially regarding data privacy in AI, but the compliance-focused strategy of Nosana helps to reduce the risks. There is a threat of competition with Render (RNDR) and Akash Network, although the Solana advantage of Nosana and a user-friendly onboarding process allows it to have a special position.
Typically, investment theses combine NOS with AI portfolios, as well as FET and TAO, due to their combination of utility and yield. Possible extensions to fiat on-ramps and team billing available as part of the Sombrero upgrade may extend their reach to non-crypto natives in the world of creatives.
Plotting the AI Compute Frontier
When the sun goes down on September 25, Nosana not only appears as a survivor of the wild in crypto but also as a pioneer. A 50,000-host milestone, combined with a price spurt by NOS, is the story of empowerment: transforming daily technology into world brain power. It’s a buy-low attraction to speculators in an AI gold rush; to builders, a canvas upon which future innovations can be made.
At a time when stablecoins are holding and Bitcoin is bouncing, the decentralised grid of Nosana sounds like a time when compute becomes as fluent as code. Having Solana as its backbone (speed) and a community as its heart, NOS is not following the trends, but is setting them. Turn the switch on, plug the cable in, and the inference commences.
