Decentralized Physical Infrastructure Networks (DePINs) are revolutionizing the way physical infrastructure is managed by combining blockchain technology, token incentives, and IoT. DePINs allow for the decentralization of large-scale projects traditionally overseen by governments and corporations, such as electricity grids and waste management systems. Pioneer projects like Power Ledger and OpenBazaar laid the foundation for DePINs, demonstrating blockchain’s potential in energy distribution and e-commerce. DePINs operate through a combination of blockchain, IoT, token incentives, and smart contracts, enabling decentralized ownership and control of infrastructure. They categorize into Physical Resource Networks, focusing on tangible resources and supply chain management, and Digital Resource Networks, which provide backend cloud support for industries like computing and storage. DePINs are a significant web3 application, connecting service providers with end-users, ensuring infrastructure decentralization, and offering cost and speed benefits. As DePIN technology evolves, it is expected to drive further growth and transformation across various sectors.
