DePin

DePin stands for Decentralized Physical Infrastructure Network. It's about leveraging a system of rewards, paid out in tokens, to motivate people to pool resources like storage, bandwidth, computing power, and energy. The goal is to collaboratively create and sustain the backbone of the network, making it a collective effort.

DePIN: Constructing a Decentralized Value Network via Dual Curves

Under decentralization, the layout and utilization of infrastructure in DePIN can achieve higher efficiency and lower costs while enhancing the overall system's security and resilience. Unlike traditional centralized equipment providers, the updating and maintenance of DePIN equipment are jointly undertaken by project teams and miners. Equipment providers are only responsible for the research, development, and sale of the equipment, while the updating and maintenance are completed by the supply-side users. For DePIN projects, realizing data interoperability between multiple chains can maximize the value of data. This not only represents a potential breakout point for the DePIN track but also directly benefits cross-chain protocols amid this growth wave.
