DePIN is the most overlooked sector in crypto and it’s not even close. It’s also the one that has the biggest potential to transform industries and prove to the world that crypto is far more than speculation.
Every industry exec I talk to and describe DePIN and what it can do to lower their costs or enhance their offering gets it.
Yes, a lot of these crowdsourced initiatives have been tried pre-crypto and there’s a reason they haven’t worked: no real incentive to support and maintain the network.
DePIN is no longer experimental. You have crowdfunded community networks like @helium @GEODNET_ and @Hivemapper providing reliable infrastructure services including high quality data and network capacity
Traditional companies will migrate to use DePIN networks because their services are competitive and reliable.
Had a great discussions @SolanaConf with @aseidman from @Hivemapper. They have mapped over 1/3 of all the roads in the world in about two years. This is the fastest-growing road mapping project globally leveraging what crypto is very good at: coordination at scale with incentives to contributors.
DePIN is at the core of what we do at @inversion_cap - acquiring traditional companies and ripping old infrastructure with new one to transform them. That’s DePIN. Crypto-enabled businesses.
Had a great fireside chat with @hosseeb at Token2049 about Inversion and how we plan to onboard a billion users to the crypto economy. Real GDP on chain

We’re re at an inflection point where crypto is no longer just experimental—it’s actionable.
At @inversion_cap, you’ll be a pioneer in shaping how blockchain is used to create meaningful impact across industries and proving to the world that, like the Internet, crypto is a technology that most businesses will adopt to remain competitive.
