The Current Development Status of DePIN in Various Blockchain Ecosystems

With the continuous development of the Decentralized Physical Infrastructure Network (DePIN) field, diverse projects are emerging on different public chain platforms. Although certain platforms are currently receiving more attention, some well-known DePIN projects have begun to choose other public chains as their infrastructure.

In the future, we may see more public chains specifically aimed at DePIN, while some mainstream public chains will also increase their investment in areas such as AI, driving further prosperity in the DePIN ecosystem.

Ethereum: Diversification of Applications

The DePIN projects on Ethereum are showing a trend of diversification:

  1. ORA - A verifiable AI oracle that is developing technology to bring AI models on-chain.

  2. ATOR - Decentralized WiFi network, users can earn token rewards by contributing bandwidth. Currently, there are 3400 nodes.

  3. AIOZ - A comprehensive DePIN solution that covers multiple areas including Web3 storage, decentralized AI computing, and streaming. The number of nodes exceeds 180,000.

  4. Janction - An AI-specific Layer 2 network that provides GPU resources and traceable data inputs for enterprises.

  5. Deeper - Decentralized VPN network, users can contribute idle bandwidth to earn rewards. The number of nodes has reached 150,000.

A certain public chain ecosystem: Leading in the number of nodes

The DePIN projects in this ecosystem have a large number of nodes:

  1. A certain wireless hotspot network - Users can earn token rewards by sharing the network. The number of nodes exceeds 1 million.

  2. A certain GPU network - Users can connect idle GPUs to complete rendering tasks and earn tokens. It has nearly 4000 nodes.

  3. A certain map data network - Users contribute data to the map through dashcams and receive rewards. The number of nodes exceeds 150,000.

  4. DePHY - One-stop DePIN development framework that simplifies project development process.

  5. HajimeAI - A sidechain project focused on AI multi-intelligence technology. Users can provide computing power to support AI reasoning and training.

A certain Layer2 network: High DePIN activity

The DePIN projects on this network exhibit diverse characteristics:

  1. A vehicle data network - Users can create and share verified vehicle data streams to earn rewards. The number of nodes exceeds 100,000.

  2. A certain WiFi hotspot network - a WiFi sharing platform originating from Web2 products. It has 15 million nodes.

  3. A geographic data network - Users can earn rewards by installing GNSS antennas. Applicable to multiple industry scenarios. The number of nodes is close to 9000.

A Certain Layer2 Network: Gathering of Established Projects

There are some mature DePIN projects on this network:

  1. A certain video streaming network - Nodes support video service providers by offering CPU/GPU resources and bandwidth. It has 100 nodes.

  2. A certain WiFi sharing platform - Users can purchase dedicated devices to share WiFi and earn token rewards. The number of nodes is nearly 2000.

A DePIN-Specific Public Blockchain: Based on Sensors

The projects on this public blockchain mainly revolve around various types of sensors:

  1. A certain WiFi network - Users can set up nodes to share WiFi using dedicated or existing devices.

  2. A certain GPU network - Users can share idle GPU computing power to earn rewards. It has over 1500 nodes.

  3. A charging pile network - Users can purchase charging equipment for sharing to earn profits. Not officially launched yet.

  4. A certain AI network - Users can share resources to provide services for AI models and earn rewards. Currently in the testing phase.

A certain DePIN dedicated public chain: Rich innovative applications

The projects on this blockchain showcase a diverse range of innovative applications:

  1. A certain map network - aims to build a real-time world map, where users can earn rewards by collecting geographic images.

  2. A certain environmental sensor network - a global noise pollution measurement network, where users can measure surrounding noise through their mobile phones to earn rewards.

Overall, the DePIN field is thriving within major public chain ecosystems, showing trends of diversification, innovation, and large-scale applications. In the future, more specialized DePIN public chains and projects may emerge, driving the entire industry forward.
