Exploring the DePIN Sector in Crypto

DePIN, shorthand for decentralized physical infrastructure, is a burgeoning sector in the crypto space that combines various technologies to maintain a global network of physical assets. It encompasses protocols leveraging blockchain for a decentralized approach to infrastructure management, supported by participants providing computational resources. DePIN projects are divided into two categories: Physical Resource Networks (PRN), which include essential hardware for connectivity, and Digital Resource Networks (DRN), supplying the digital resources necessary for operating physical systems. Notable DePIN projects include Render Network, which decentralizes GPU cloud rendering, and The Graph, Filecoin, Arweave, Akash Network, AIOZ Network, Bittensor, Helium Network, IOTA, and Theta Network, each contributing to the advancement of decentralized infrastructure solutions.
