DePIN and AI Integration: Building a New Ecosystem for Decentralized Infrastructure
New Developments in the DePIN Track: Opportunities Brought by AI Integration
Decentralized Physical Infrastructure Network ( DePIN ), after experiencing prosperity in the past two years, is seeking new development directions. With the rapid advancement of artificial intelligence technology, DePIN is trying to integrate with AI to open up new development space.
The Essence of DePIN
The core of DePIN lies in integrating decentralized resources through token incentives. It encourages users to share personal resources to build infrastructure networks, covering multiple areas such as storage space, communication bandwidth, cloud computing, and energy. DePIN projects are mainly divided into three categories: storage, computing power, and networking.
Unlike pure on-chain projects, DePIN requires an initial investment to purchase physical equipment, followed by ongoing "mining" activities. By connecting with the real world, DePIN brings positive externalities to the entire industry.
Current Market Landscape
According to the data, DePIN currently has nearly 4.56 million devices in about 196 countries and regions worldwide, with a market value of 7.1 billion USD. The devices are mainly distributed in the United States, Europe, and Southeast Asia, with a very high concentration in Southeast Asia. South Korea has the highest number of devices as a single country, reflecting a strong cryptocurrency industry atmosphere in the country.
Emerging Project Roam
Roam is a representative project in the DePIN network sub-sector and can be seen as a combination of Web3 and WIFI. It offers various types of products, including WIFI hardware and eSIM cards. Users can mine by purchasing proprietary hardware or obtain free data by completing various tasks.
The technical architecture of Roam consists of four main ecological modules: network infrastructure, growth incentives, innovation incubation, and community governance. This architecture provides a new development paradigm for the DePIN track.
The Integration of AI and DePIN
Roam is exploring deep integration with AI, leveraging its communication data advantages to provide high-quality usable data for AI projects. With the premise of protecting user privacy, Roam offers valuable data sources for AI companies through decentralized identity and verifiable credential technologies.
Roam not only provides basic carrier-grade data but is also building a comprehensive data ecosystem. Through deep collaboration with partners in various fields, Roam is able to integrate and offer multidimensional data resources, including weather monitoring, CDN services, renewable energy usage, decentralized identity verification, and more.
User Participation Opportunities
Roam adopts a "free + airdrop" strategy to attract users. Users can obtain free traffic by completing tasks, and they can also earn points by sharing WIFI to participate in future airdrops. This low-threshold participation method provides ordinary users with the opportunity to engage with DePIN projects.
The combination of AI and DePIN is constructing a decentralized infrastructure for the AI era, bringing new development opportunities to the entire industry. As this trend develops, we can expect to see more innovative applications and business models emerging in this field.
