Why Depin Is the Infrastructure of Crypto

Depin projects build real-world infrastructure by attaching unique utilities to tokens and hardware rather than offering a one-size-fits-all solution.

• Geodnet creates a blockchain-based precise positioning layer, letting participants host receivers that improve location accuracy while earning rewards.

• Onocoy focuses on global, community-powered GNSS data sharing, unlocking high-precision positioning for mapping, autonomous systems, and location-based services.

• Nubila pairs its Marco devices with a decentralized weather oracle: owners collect tamper-proof meteorological data used for parametric insurance and forecasting while validating entries through Nubila Nodes.

• SkyX’s SKY-100 personal weather station supplies hyper-local measurements—temperature, humidity, pressure, wind—and compensates users for sharing that real-time data.

• Beamable Network shifts gaming infrastructure onto decentralized nodes: operators run Beamable Nodes to power multiplayer services, in-game purchases, and live operations. Warp Gaming uses Warp Nodes to secure a decentralized publishing layer, validating transactions and publishing activity to protect creators and players.

• Mawari Network relies on Guardian Nodes that validate and audit network activity, ensuring transparency and operational trust across its ecosystem.

Each project targets a specific infrastructure need—GPS accuracy, weather data, gaming backends, or auditing—making DePIN a collection of interoperable utilities rather than a single protocol. Participants either install devices or run nodes to earn rewards and directly contribute to service resilience and data integrity.

This model anchors crypto value in tangible services.
