DePIN is shifting ownership of real-world infrastructure from corporations to networks. Instead of renting access, participants now own, operate, and earn from the physical systems powering the digital economy.
Uplink: $UPLINK
Uplink decentralizes wireless connectivity by letting individuals contribute routers and earn rewards. It targets last-mile internet with a community-owned model. Physical coverage, token-driven incentives.
Daylight: $DAY
Daylight focuses on decentralized energy coordination across solar, batteries, and home power systems. Contributors are rewarded for providing flexible, real energy capacity. It brings DePIN into the power grid.
Filecoin tokenizes storage at global scale through cryptographic proof systems. Providers earn $FIL for reliably storing real data. It remains one of DePIN’s clearest success cases.
Fluence Network: $FLT
Fluence combines what all three have: real providers, verifiable infrastructure, and live demand; but applies it to decentralized compute. Instead of one resource, Fluence abstracts many into a cloudless platform. More surface area, more utility, more leverage.
