Glossary
Decentralized Physical Infrastructure Networks (DePIN) are the next frontier in blockchain, revolutionizing how physical infrastructure (energy, telecommunications, logistics) operates. These projects offer decentralized, blockchain-powered solutions to problems of centralization, inefficiency, and lack of transparency in traditional systems.
Real-life examples show the potential:
Telecommunications: Users share routers and antennas for tokens.
Energy: Communities contribute renewable energy to the grid, earning tokens.
Logistics: Blockchain-enabled tracking/payment for last-mile deliveries.
Projects like IoTeX, Helium, and Filecoin lead the way, though challenges like legal uncertainties and community engagement remain. As DePIN integrates #socialmining and tokenization, it could unlock mass adoption and redefine global infrastructure.
