Me after reading the entire Pointless Program whitepaper like it’s sacred scripture:

“Interesting. Very pointless.”

Still bullish. Still clicking.

🚨 MAJOR: The DePIN Pledge change everything for Web3 infrastructure. This isn't just another initiative - it's a complete paradigm shift

Web3 promised decentralization, but much of its infrastructure still relies on centralized services. From cloud hosting to data indexing, we're still dependent on a handful of dominant providers. This contradicts everything Web3 stands for.

The DePIN Pledge is our solution - a commitment by companies, protocols, and projects to develop, embrace, and uphold decentralized infrastructure whenever possible. It's not just ideological; it's a practical necessity.

Participants pledge to:

1️⃣Reduce dependence on centralized services

2️⃣Utilize decentralized networks for transparency & resilience

3️⃣Support open-source collaboration for Web3-native infrastructure

We're not alone in this mission! Industry leaders joining include @AlephCloud, @helium, @ionet, @iEx_ec, @iotex_io, @0xPolygon, @SubQueryNetwork and many more! 🤝

To reinforce commitment, we're introducing DePIN Pledge NFTs - not as collectibles, but as on-chain attestations of dedication to decentralization. Think verifiable, immutable proof of participation visible across the ecosystem.

These NFTs could facilitate future governance, access to decentralized resources, or incentives for active DePIN contributors. Transparency breeds accountability! 🏗️

By joining the DePIN Pledge, projects take concrete steps to turn decentralization from aspiration into reality. For those committed to shaping Web3's future, the time to act is NOW!

DePIN Day Dubai 2025 just wrapped and the energy was absolutely UNMATCHED 🇦🇪 Here's what went down

📊The numbers speak for themselves:

🎯 400+ builders and innovators

🎤 28 incredible speakers

💬 15 talks and panels

🌍 Global DePIN community united in one city

🚀 From satellite-based mapping to decentralized compute, from tokenized bandwidth to verifiable AI agents - DePIN Day showcased an ecosystem that's no longer theoretical but OPERATING and SCALING in real time!

🏙️ Dubai was the perfect backdrop - a city known for ambition and rapid transformation, just like the DePIN movement itself. The conversations were as bold as the skyline!

🌟 What struck us most? This movement is built by MANY - early builders, leading protocols, passionate communities all coming together to redefine what infrastructure can be.

🔄 The DePIN ecosystem is open, unstoppable, and accelerating faster than ever. What we witnessed in Dubai proves we're at an inflection point.

🎯 The journey continues! Join us next at DePIN Day Singapore - the next chapter in the world's leading DePIN event series!

Who's ready for Singapore? 🇸🇬 👀

Excited to share highlights from @beincrypto's interview with our co-founder Evgeny Ponomarev on @fluence_project's vision for "cloudless computing"!

At Fluence, we're building a "cloudless" platform - a decentralized alternative to traditional cloud providers like AWS and Azure. Think of it as the Uber or Airbnb of cloud computing!

Currently focused on Web3 markets, especially node operators. Our decentralized platform offers significant cost advantages while eliminating vendor lock-in risks that come with centralized providers.

"It's funny how many people don't realize how much cloud platforms charge on top of the actual economics of hardware. The margins in cloud business are huge." - Evgeny on why we can offer much better pricing.

Our tokenomics create a robust network: $FLT secures compute power, providers stake tokens as "skin in the game," and rewards incentivize reliable performance. No middlemen, no excessive margins!

Coming soon: GPU support for AI/LLM workloads! Our providers are ready to connect their GPUs at competitive prices to support inference use cases and the growing AI ecosystem.

For enterprises, we're implementing SLAs (including on-chain options), working with certified providers, and enabling fiat payments - making decentralized compute accessible to traditional businesses.

Governed by a DAO with token-weighted voting and transparent processes - we're building truly permissionless infrastructure for the future of computing.

Join our upcoming beta for virtual servers! Sign up at fluence.network and help us build open computing infrastructure for humanity.

🧵 Excited to share key insights from @mpost_io's interview with our co-founder Tom Trowbridge about @fluence_project's vision!

Fluence delivers decentralized computing that's 20-80% cheaper than traditional cloud services, plus the benefits of openness and resilience without vendor lock-in.

Our focused strategy: starting with blockchain node providers (a multi-million $ market), then expanding to L1 blockchains and AI compute needs. We already have $5M in pipeline with projections to grow 3-4x!

Current offering: a streamlined compute marketplace for VMs. Coming soon: SLAs that Tom calls "a game-changer for customer trust" - unlocking more use cases and reliability.

"Execute well in one market, build a position, then expand" - this disciplined approach is driving our growth toward clear ARR milestones and customer adoption.

As AI and blockchain adoption accelerate, Fluence offers both technical advantages and economic benefits over centralized giants.

Check out the full @mpost_io interview to learn more about how we're building the future of decentralized infrastructure!

💡 The $1 Trillion DePIN Opportunity Nobody's Talking About (Yet)

Just read @TheTomTrow's explosive report on #DePIN Token Economics that explains why serious institutional money is about to flood into specific crypto projects.

The secret? Real revenue from non-crypto customers.

DePIN has cracked the code on how to capture real-world value in tokens:

1. Fluence: Pays providers $10/core/month in tokens
2. Geodnet: Uses 80% of revenue to buy/burn tokens
3. Storj: $1.5/TB/month to storage providers

This isn't speculative - it's business.

Which model impresses you most?

The most brilliant insight: buy-burn serves as on-chain revenue verification.

"If two projects claim $1M revenue, but one burns $800K of tokens and the other burns $250K, which is more trustworthy?"

No need for SEC filings or audits when the proof is on-chain.

Traditional cloud services from AWS to Azure should be terrified:

DePIN networks are offering the same services at fraction of the cost while distributing value to token holders instead of shareholders.

Could this be the real "tech disruption" we've been waiting for?

The report boldly predicts: "The buy-and-burn mechanism... creates powerful deflationary dynamics which are already beginning to decouple successful DePINs from the broader crypto market"

Are we witnessing the birth of the first value-based, non-speculative crypto assets?
