What is DePIN? — NodeOps Glossary

DePIN — Decentralized Physical Infrastructure Networks (DePIN) leverage blockchain and decentralized technologies to power and govern real-world physical infrastructure. This approach supports systems where infrastructure — such as telecommunications, energy grids, transportation networks, or IoT devices — is owned, operated, and maintained by decentralized participants rather than centralized entities. NodeOps Network is a DePIN orchestration layer.
