DEPIN, a new word in the field of web3 drilled from the end of 2023, trying to seize the market in 2024.
You are not unfamiliar with this concept of translating the “decentralized physical infrastructure network”. For example, Filecoin, a decentralized storage project, belongs to this field.It’s just that when it was on fire, DEPIN has not been refined by MESSARI by an encrypted asset research institution.
In fact, even when Messari first proposed the Depin concept at the end of 2022, discussing its popularity only continued for about 1 month.
Until December 2023, the scenes of the HELIUM (MOBLE) and HiveMapper (Honey) on the car ended in the scene of the scene.The scene has become richer and diverse than the most well -known “storage” in the previous market.Bleak

At present, the valuation of the DEPIN track is about $ 9 billion.According to MESSARI estimates, by 2028, this track will be expected to increase to $ 3.5 trillion.
In simple terms, DEPIN uses Token to motivate individuals to share networks or hardware resources, including computing power, wireless networks (WIFI), servers, sensors, blockchain node equipment, and AI -related resources that have been hot for one year.
Compared with traditional centralized facilities, DEPIN focuses on the following advantages:
-
Break the limitations of the monopoly of current information and communication technology infrastructure
-
Let users share costs such as capital, assets, and labor for the common goals, reduce management overhead through the blockchain account book, and use token to incentive to achieve income sharing
-
The decentralized decentralized network is more flexible, reducing the risk of single -point failure
-
In the global ecosystem that is open and no need to authorize, the potential speed is one magnitude higher than the centralized system.
At present, Ethereum is the main blockchain network deployed by the DEPIN project, and its competitive chain Solana network has begun to emerge in the adaptation of the DEPIN project.In the project market, new and old players gathered, Filecoin and theta Network are all familiar faces in the industry, and Helium and HiveMapper are entering the head sequence.
This article will be classified according to the specific scene to take you to understand what Depin is and where the opportunity is.
Storage
Filecoin (Fil)
Filecoin is a point -to -point network that is used to store files. It has built -in economic incentives and cryptographic technology to ensure that the file can be stored reliably for a long time. Its architecture is based on the IPFS protocol.
On the Filecoin network, users pay the files in a distributed shared space.Filecoin contains a variety of use cases. In addition to Web2 data, it also includes NFT, Web3 game assets, etc., which is more economical, reliable and diverse than traditional centralized cloud storage.

Theta network (theta)
TheTa Network is a blockchain network focusing on streaming content storage. It was originally founded in Ethereum and later built a native blockchain network.
On the THETA Network, video and media platforms can reduce content distribution costs.After the end users share the storage space or bandwidth of personal computers, mobile devices, smart TVs, or IoT devices, they can get network rewards.TheTa Network supports Turing’s complete smart contracts, which is completely compatible with Ethereum.Use scenarios include NFT, DAPP applications, and decentralized autonomous organizations (DAO).

Arweave (ar)
Arweave aims to be permanently storage files through distributed computing networks. It uses new type of data structures of blockchain to try to subvert existing storage giants Google, Amazon and Microsoft and other leading markets.
It has a lot in common with Filecoin.Arweave uses its native Token AR to support the service.When people spend AR storage data, nodes (miners) that maintain the network will receive AR income.During the transaction on the chain, AR will inject the donation fund, which slowly releases the reward through the technology indefinitely.Arweave guarantees the infinite storage through this mechanism.

calculate
Render Network (RNDR)
Render Network is the first decentralized GPU rendering platform to build on the Ethereum blockchain.It allows the complex rendering tasks based on GPU to handle and distribute on the point -to -point network, so that transactions of rendering 3D environments, models and objects are more simplified to end users.
Node operators with idle computing power can contribute their unused GPUs to the entire network and earn RNDR by processing user rendering needs.

Akash (akt)
AKASH is a full autonomous rights certificate (POS) blockchain developed on COSMOS Hub, and it is also an open source super cloud.It uses households to purchase and sell computing resources safely and efficiently, and is designed for public affairs.
With Akash Cloud, users can deploy infrastructure or sell their unused cloud resources to others.Developers can buy cloud resources to deploy and run applications.

As a user, if you have the resources you need to share with these DEPIN projects, you can try to contribute to it. Of course, you must identify whether these projects provide a safe sharing environment, and at the same time, you need to analyze the real value of incentives, such as projects, such as projects, such as projects, such as projects, such as projects, such as projects.Whether the brand’s hardware is worth investing.
Don’t forget that from 2021 to 2022, Filecoin’s losses caused by several plunge in Fil are still vivid.
