The emergence of decentralized physical infrastructure networks (DePINs) is transitioning from digital infrastructure projects to diverse data and service networks, driven by reduced hosting costs.
DePIN initiatives are fundamentally two-sided marketplaces where demand reflects users' service needs met by a decentralized supply of infrastructure via nodes, sensors, and other hardware.
Recent cost reductions in memory and compute resources have allowed for more participatory infrastructure provisioning, consequently diminishing reliance on centralized entities and enhancing network resilience.
The decreasing capital requirements for hosting infrastructure empower a wider array of participants to operate nodes, thus diversifying supply in DePIN marketplaces and contributing to a more robust ecosystem.
