Deep Dive
1. Purpose and value proposition
AIOZ Network uses a decentralized physical infrastructure network, or DePIN, which rewards people for contributing hardware resources. Rather than relying only on large data centers, its services draw on participating devices’ storage, bandwidth, and computing power. The goal is to support services such as file storage, AI workloads, and video delivery. (CoinDesk)
2. Technology and ecosystem
AIOZ combines a Layer 1 blockchain—a base network that processes transactions and supports applications—with a Cosmos SDK foundation and compatibility with Ethereum’s EVM, the software environment used by many Ethereum applications. Its products include AIOZ Storage, AIOZ Stream, and AIOZ AI. In October 2026, it also introduced tools for AI agents to interact with its storage services. (CoinMarketCap) (TradingView News)
3. AIOZ token
AIOZ is the network’s native token. Project materials describe it as a means of paying for network services and rewarding contributors; it is also used in staking, which helps support blockchain security. Its role is to connect demand for network resources with the people supplying them. (CoinMarketCap)
Conclusion
AIOZ is a decentralized infrastructure network, with a blockchain and token designed to coordinate storage, computing, and media services provided by contributors. How effectively can those shared resources serve real applications at scale?
