DePIN
(Decentralized Physical Infrastructure Networks)

What is DePIN?

DePIN stands for Decentralized Physical Infrastructure Networks, where real-world infrastructure (like wireless networks, sensors, storage, and compute hardware) is owned and operated by the community — not corporations.

Examples include:

  • 📡 Decentralized WiFi or 5G networks
  • 🛰️ IoT sensor networks (weather, air quality)
  • 🧠 Distributed AI compute infrastructure
  • ⚡ Energy grid or EV charging networks
  • 🗂️ Decentralized data storage hubs

These systems are built and owned by individuals, and anyone can contribute hardware and get rewarded with tokens.

DePIN x Solana (Powered by SOL)

Using Solana’s high-speed, low-cost blockchain, DePIN projects can:

  • 📲 Track usage and uptime in real-time
  • 💰 Reward node operators with SOL
  • 🛠️ Automate payments and smart contracts
  • 🌍 Coordinate large-scale physical infrastructure trustlessly
