## Quote — verbatim

> Phase 2 starts in 2026, telco edge... fiber huts, cell towers, base stations, close to users, close to data... Phase three, beginning in 2027: homes, schools, and local community sites. The long tail of underutilized infrastructure becomes active. A solar-powered server in \[a\] rural school can train part of a global model. That's the dream.

## Context — site annotation, not spoken

Dated product roadmap for Akash Star Cluster; Phase 1 (2025) is data-center-grade star nodes, with VMs launching August and confidential computing September 2025.
