I’ve been paying less attention to short-term price action and more to what Web3 is actually building underneath.
A clear pattern keeps showing up: infrastructure is becoming the narrative again.
A few tokens that stand out to me in this shift:
1. $FLT
@Fluence Fluence quietly focuses on decentralized compute for developers and AI workloads. What I like is the practicality. It’s not trying to be everything. It’s solving a clear problem: affordable, scalable compute that doesn’t rely on centralized cloud providers.
2. $AKT @Akash
Decentralized cloud compute done in a very straightforward way. Akash shows that permissionless infrastructure can actually compete with traditional providers, especially as demand for compute keeps rising.
3.
$FIL @Filecoin Still one of the strongest examples of decentralized storage at scale. It’s not new, but it’s foundational. Storage isn’t flashy, but everything else depends on it.
4. $HONEY @Hivemapper
This one stands out because it connects Web3 directly to the physical world. Community-powered mapping feels like a real example of DePIN working as intended contributors provide data, and the network grows organically.
What ties these projects together is simple:
they’re focused on infrastructure first compute, storage, and real-world data not just financial mechanics.
Fluence fits naturally into this picture. As AI and onchain apps grow, decentralized compute stops being optional and starts becoming necessary.
Curious to hear what others are noticing which infrastructure projects do you think will matter most over the next cycle?
