Today, there are a number of blockchain networks that encourage communities to build physical infrastructure networks from scratch and use tokens to achieve this. The general name of these networks is Decentralized Physical Infrastructure Networks, or DePIN for short. Decentralization refers to networks that support both physical and digital infrastructures.

DePIN projeleri, gerçek dünyada mobilite, elektrikli araç şarjı, telekom gibi fiziksel altyapıların kurulmasını ve geliştirilmesini teşvik ederken, sağlayıcılara tokenlerle ödüllendirme yaparlar. Bu projeler genellikle açık kaynaklıdır ve katkıda bulunanların ve kullanıcı verilerinin kamuya açık olması, şeffaflık ve erişilebilirlik açısından büyük avantajlar sunar. Bu nedenle, geliştiriciler, DePIN ekosistemine değer ve fayda ekleyerek merkezi olmayan uygulamalar (dApp'ler) oluşturabilirler.

The four categories in DePIN are as follows:

Cloud/storage networks: File storage, relational database, CDN and VPN Networks.

Wireless networks: 5G, LoRaWAN (Internet of Things)

Sensor networks: Interconnected devices embedded with sensors that collect real-time data from the physical world, such as maps.

Energy networks: Brings together distributed energy resources to create a more flexible and efficient energy grid.

DePIN's usage area is quite wide and the benefits of this technology are obvious.

The advantages of decentralized management of physical devices with distributed ownership are many. Because it is a system that is low cost, fast to adopt, safe and has an incentive mechanism.

DePIN, geleneksel yapılara göre daha iyi bir altyapı oluşturmak için büyük bir potansiyele sahip. Özellikle, reel varlık temelli (RWA) projeleri konuşulurken DePIN'in katkısının daha fazla olacaktır.

However, the hype level may be low in the DePIN industry at the moment. The main reason for this situation is that DePIN projects have to compete with web2 giants such as Amazon, Microsoft and Google.

It is believed that DePIN projects have the potential to compete with established companies and maintain token valuations in the future. However, disrupting the old order and changing the balance has never been easy.

So, do you think#DePIN(https://twitter.com/hashtag/DePIN?src=hashtag_click) projects can compete with established companies? However, is it possible for them to generate revenue that can sustain token valuations?

According to analysis, DePIN projects are expected to reach a value of $3.5 trillion by 2028.

Let's not ignore these projects when making an altcoin basket.
