What is it?
DePIN (Decentralized Physical Infrastructure Networks) is a concept where users build and manage physical infrastructures (internet, cloud computing, data centers) through blockchain technology.
Why is it trending?
Decentralization of cloud services and networks Users can earn by providing resources (internet, storage, computing power) Strong backing from major funds and increasing interest in Web3
Risks:
Scalability challenges and user adoption barriers Competition with centralized giants (Amazon, Google, Microsoft) Regulatory restrictions in certain countries
Future Outlook
Projects like Helium (wireless networks), Akash (cloud computing), and Filecoin (decentralized storage) are already demonstrating DePIN’s potential. If the trend continues, it could reshape the IT industry!
