“We believe DePIN is important because it is set to become the backbone of a future where machines and devices transact autonomously. DePIN lays the foundation for the agentic web and what we refer to as the Post Web—where networks are autonomous, interoperable, and user-owned, enabling a more intent-driven Web. This is why we support DePIN founders driving this transformation and support the DePIN Pledge.”
