The Centralization Problem

The Centralization Problem

A few entities control the Internet, AI, and data. This centralization has reached a critical point, creating profound technical, social, and governance risks.

DePINs (Decentralized Physical Infrastructure Networks) provide the only viable alternative to this monopolization, ensuring innovation stays in the hands of communities, not corporations.

DePIN networks offer alternatives for storage, compute, telephony, and more. They help people and companies reduce costs, retain ownership of their data, and reclaim their independence and power.

“Freedom of connection with any application to any party is the fundamental social basis of the Internet. And now, is the basis of the society built on the Internet.”

Adopting decentralized alternatives wherever possible.

Personal data is monetized by tech giants for profit.

65.27% of Ethereum nodes run on centralized cloud providers, creating single points of failure.

“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.”
