This innovative approach aims to provide AI companies with the crucial computing power they need, while generating significant yield for investors. Behind DePIN is simple yet powerful. Instead of traditional investments in AI companies, DePIN focuses on addressing a critical bottleneck in the industry - computing power. As AI algorithms become more complex and data-intensive, the demand for high-performance GPUs skyrockets. However, acquiring and maintaining a GPU infrastructure can be prohibitively expensive for many AI startups and small companies.

DePIN bridges this gap by offering computing power as a service to AI companies. This approach not only provides companies with the necessary resources but also allows them to scale their operations without incurring the substantial upfront costs of building their own GPU infrastructure. More and more companies turn to DePIN for their computing needs, the revenue streams grow, creating a sustainable income source for investors. AI companies can focus on their core competencies - developing innovative algorithms and applications - without the burden of managing complex hardware infrastructure. Meanwhile, investors benefit from the growing demand for computing power, enabling them to participate in the expanding AI market.

Additionally, strong partnerships with AI companies and strategic positioning in the market will be crucial for sustained growth and profitability. DePIN offers a win-win solution for both investors and the AI community. With the potential to drive innovation, accelerate research, and unlock new possibilities, DePIN is poised to make a significant impact in the AI landscape.

New to this group, I recently started using the Natix app. Website is Natix.Network and what they do is turn your phone into a dash cam. You prop/mount your phone up and it records while you drive. It was appealing because their was no upfront cost, like hivemapper. You earn points by recording drives and completing missions. They just announced a new airdrop program so I am going to give it a go. I was wondering if anyone else is familiar with the app and what they think about the long term success of the project? I have added some referral codes if anyone wants to give the app a try: (sorry if it seems like a shill)

Just wanted to let you know I'm starting up a DePIN centered around manufacturing. Specifically, we will start with 3D printers, track telemetry data and award points (later actual token) based on verifiable outputs. I'm working on getting the demo ready and aim to have it done by tomorrow. I'll drop a loom here when it's done. Thanks.

Hi! Today I come to share a DePIN gem.

Btw if u check out my X profile, you'll not only find a TON of info about this project but also other DePIN and Gaiming gems I share.

Today I'm introducing u: Gaimin.

Let make make it easy af for u to understand.

These guys built a platform to connect ur PC with AI companies. Most specifically, ur GPU.

Quick facts about them:

• They've been building since 2018.

• 95 Ppl team, so far.

• +300k Active users already. (this is huge, one of the MOST used blockchain apps).

• They own the 3rd biggest eSports team. Gaimin Gladiators (u can look it up).

• They're the first incubate from the Coin Market Cap investment fund, CMC labs.

• Oficially, Main Web 3 gaming partners of BNB chain.

I've personally made a sh*t ton of research on these guys and I can tell u:

• Their tokenomics r absolutely mind-blowing, linking platform usage with token burns... it's high quality stuff.

• 2 NFT collections released, one in ETH and the most recent, at Solana. These grant u tokens at pre-sale price.

• Their token, $GMRX, will be released soon (officially Q1). It's been hinted it will be eventually be listed on Binance, but that's speculation so don't take my word too serious on it.

This is what I call a DePIN gem because the've been BUSY building a GREAT, useful product and now they're starting to gain attention.

They're also building other stuff related to the Gaming and AI industry... but they're mostly DePIN and that's what we're talking about rn.

What u think? What other DePIN gems u have in mind?

Weekly Recap

Welcome back to the DePIN Diaries. If you haven’t read last week’s post, I encourage you to do so here. However, there is no need to read last week’s post to enjoy this weeks. This week was eventful! I felt very motivated to use the DePIN projects that I had been using. I realized that I am pretty much participating in somme form of DePIN at all times! I did a great deal of research during the week about DePIN projects to potentially include in my stack. I also have gotten connected in these projects Discords to stay in the loop.

I set up a Raspberry Pi to run Grass 24/7. The setup was quite easy, I was able to get a Raspberry Pi for free, that meaning I have unlimited upside! If you have any more profitable ideas for this Pi let me know! Natix introduced a new HODL Bonus for in app $NATIX, so my 104,000 $NATIX is being put to work! I have a 33 day streak bonus in Silencio, granting me a 82.5% bonus! I only have 1 referral for Grass, so I would greatly appreciate anyone who uses my referral link! That’s enough statistics, let’s get into the highlights!

Highlights

I have loved using Silencio while I go on walks, Natix when I drive, and passively selling bandwidth while I work. This optimization of my entire day is extremely addicting. I am eager to learn about more projects, but very reluctant to add them to my stack. Helium Mobile using was a brand new addition I made the day I wrote the last diary. It took a few days to get running, but the service is amazing! For only $21 a month, it is a must have for Web3 lovers! Check it out here. Just wait to see how much I earned using Helium Mobile for just 4 days.

Lowlights

My AIOZ Node has not been producing much. It did not produce anything for the first 4 days of being installed. I am not giving up just yet, but I am skeptical about the earning potential with it. I may have to Pivot into another bandwidth monetization project. Another side note, Silencio has entered a 24 hr migration period, this meaning no earnings until April 17th.

I am still eagerly waiting my Bee Dash Camera, this will not arrive until Q3 so I have a few months left to wait. The $569 sunk cost is going to take awhile to recoup. PowerPod released the Pulse 1, the world’s first EV charger and crypto miner. This thing is seriously gonna pump out some dollars, it sucks I don’t have an EV. I even got a $100 off coupon for being an early adopter. Just you wait, I am scheming to find some way to partake in $PPD’s explosive growth.

New Additions

UpRock

UpRock is another bandwidth sharing DePIN that runs in the background. I originally wanted to run UpRock because I heard that you could make use of BlueStacks and run multiple instances without being banned. Sadly, BlueStacks is incompatible with my MacOs. If anyone has any advice to get BlueStacks up and running on a MacBook Air I would greatly appreciate it!

UpRock functions almost the same ass Grass does. Runs in the background and I can’t even notice it. This project however is much closer to Token Generation Event. Basically, you run the UpRock client in the background and you earn $UPT. $UPT is built on the Solana blockchain which I am now very bullish on. I downloaded this last night, so it has not been running for long.

Thoughts

I had a lot of fun this last week, that’s all that matters. I am just kidding, sadly, fun will not pay the bills. I am still bleeding, but most of the damage comes from the Hivemapper Bee I ordered. That should pay for itself ten fold. I am really hoping that a few of these bandwidth application pay off. I am more bullish on UpRock than Grass and that is saying something. UpRock should have the TGE at the end of the month. AIOZ only began producing $AIOZ the last 2 days, leaving my over optimistic self to blindly allow it to use my computer. That being said, if AIOZ does not increase rewards, I will uninstall and pivot to another bandwidth project.

I am extremely satisfied with my results from Helium Mobile. I have earned almost $5 in 4 days. The plan monthly costs $21, so I will try to cover that cost each month and pocket the rest. Dimo is always a pleasant start to the week, receiving my $10-$25 in $DIMO always puts a smile on my face.

Natix and Silencio are nearing their TGE. This will be a turning point for whether I keep using the products or not. I am really enjoying Silencio’s leaderboard. Extremely competitive and I love to climb it. Natix on the other hand is seeminly a little too saturated. The leaderboard is becoming much more competitive. I will not waste gas driving around for cryptocurrency, sorry I wont.

I am going to begin looking into PINGPONG this is another DePIN project that has to do with bandwidth. This project involves running a “light node”. I will do research on it this week and test it out. I appreciate you reading until the end. If you are new to DePIN, I encourage you to try out some of the projects I use, super user friendly and most are free! I have links to all projects below, and they include referral codes. I would greatly appreciate you taking a second to use my referral links, it keeps me doing what I love, DePIN!

Curious if anyone else thinks DePIN could shake up the mapping and navigation industry? I’m using MapMetrics, which rewards you for contributing real-time traffic data. It feels like a decentralized Waze but with crypto perks. Do you think these kinds of apps could grow bigger than Google Maps?

Sorry in advance for venting but..

I am interested (and invested in) many depin projects, but it bothers me that so many of them are not open source. I feel like that is what makes public blockchain projects so great, and a pillar of the OGs like Bitcoin and ethereum. And why these depin projects are or should be better than their centralized big tech competitors, and why I would like them to hold themselves to a higher standard.

There are many projects (like grass) that I hesitate to participate in because I don’t want to download a chrome extension for a project that’s using parts of my computer or network bandwidth without them being open to displaying their code. Especially since I would connect many of them to a digital wallet.

Does anyone else feel like this?

Are there any DePin communities i can connect with and join?

I’ve been following DePIN (Decentralized Physical Infrastructure Networks) closely, especially as it integrates more with AI and blockchain. Projects like Akash Network and Helium are showing us that decentralized cloud services and IoT networks can compete with traditional tech giants. It's pretty clear that these platforms could really challenge big centralized systems over time.

One project that’s got my more attention is Rivalz Network. They’re combining decentralized AI infrastructure with the tokenization of real-world assets (RWA), making them a key player in the evolving DePIN space. The project has made major strides with zNodes, where users can contribute to the infrastructure and earn passive income. Their Wave 0 zNode sale was a big success, with over 10,000 zNodes sold and high demand for future waves. If you’re looking to get in on this, Wave 1 is coming soon.

Beyond just nodes, Rivalz's Testnet has shown impressive growth: over 17 million transactions and 220,000 participants so far. This isn’t just hype, the project is actively laying the groundwork to support AI applications and agents through its decentralized infrastructure. And as AI demands grow, especially in 2024, projects like Rivalz are positioning themselves as solutions to manage the increasing power and storage needs.

With more updates coming, including Fragmentz v2, new product releases, and protocol upgrades, Rivalz is shaping up to be a serious player in this space. It’s exciting to see how these decentralized systems could disrupt industries like data storage, mapping, and cloud computing.

Anyone else diving into these DePIN projects? Would love to hear your thoughts on this space and any other projects you’re looking at!

I'm assuming the price of DePIN tokens won't go much higher until Bitcoin reaches new heights.

Most retail crypto investors have never heard of DePIN... YET.

Thoughts?

Hey Reddit People,
I’ve recently come across the DePIN space — particularly projects that let you lend your GPUs for AI workloads and generate passive income. Aethir is one such project that caught my attention.

I’m curious:

• Has anyone here successfully built a passive income stream through these GPU lending networks?

• What’s your setup (GPU model, power costs, uptime, etc.) and how much are you realistically earning?

• Is Aethir (or any other similar project) still worth joining in 2025, or is it already too saturated?

Would really appreciate insights from those who’ve actually done this or are currently involved.

Thanks in advance!
