WHAT ARE THE BIGGEST OBSTACLES TO DePIN GROWTH??
In a recent appearance at ETHToronto, Frank Mathis highlights the next steps for DePIN’s future.
GenesysGo founder Frank Mathis is no stranger to the highs and lows of crypto’s thriving DePIN sector.
Drawing on his years of experience, Mathis joined other DePIN thought leaders at ETHToronto, including Helium COO Scott Sigel, to discuss the future of the sector.
“If DePIN solves that, DePIN is inevitable”
Like many passionate crypto community members, DePIN advocates staunchly argue that DePIN is inevitable. Speaking to hundreds of crypto enthusiasts at ETHToronto, Mathis offered a refreshing point of view.
The GenesysGo founder argues that value creation for contributors is one of the most integral aspects of running successful DePIN networks. Mathis highlighted that, while DePIN promises to reward contributors as decentralized software scales, “it’s shocking how much of that is running on AWS and Google Cloud.”
For example, over 50% of Ethereum node operators are hosted on AWS, Hetzner, and OVH servers.
Reiterating the importance of wealth creation for contributors, Mathis contends “what DePIN really is, is an attempt to take one of the most centralized layers of the stack and decentralize that amongst the people such that they start to participate in the growth and success of these models.”
GenesysGo’s ShdwDrive is one such example. The decentralized storage solution empowers users to earn $SHDW tokens by providing unused mobile storage to a distributed network, directly generating income from a device that lives in their pocket.
Reflecting the ideal DePIN model proposed by Mathis, network contributors benefit from the growth and success of the platform. The GenesysGo founder reinforced this notion, opining “DePIN is only as inevitable as the value that participants in the network get from it… if DePIN solves that, DePIN is inevitable.”
POOR PERFORMANCE “ONE OF THE BIGGEST FAILINGS OF DePIN”
On paper, the benefits of DePINs are obvious. However, in practice, these platforms often sacrifice performance and scalability in favor of decentralization. While this aids in value creation for contributors and increases security, it actually hamstrings performance and growth.
DePIN is often considered the natural evolution of the sharing economy, which delivered iconic businesses like Uber and Airbnb.
Drawing parallels between the pearls of the sharing economy and emerging DePIN projects, Mathis illustrated that “Uber became highly successful, not just because you’re able to share in pieces of things you don’t use everyday.. but because it worked well, it was fast, it was easy to use.”
Mathis argues that for DePIN projects to truly take off, they need to rival the performance standards set by centralized industry leaders. Referencing his experience with GenesysGo, the founder posits “in our case, our first principle [is] decentralized storage needs to be as fast, as secure, as stable, and perform every bit as well as a traditional Web2 cloud service.”
ABSTRACTION IS KEY
The Web3 user experience has long been considered one of the industry’s biggest obstacles to adoption. The complexities of wallet management and security have discouraged newcomers to space for over a decade, and continue to repel potential users today.
Mathis insists that abstracting the end-user experience away from blockchain technology is key to the success of the industry. Reinforcing this belief, the founder affirms “Your end user shouldn’t know that they’re interacting with Web3”
Looking towards the future, Mathis considers DePIN regulation will present a significant obstacle to the sector’s growth. However, instead of taking a chagrined approach to future regulatory concerns, the GenesysGo founder suggests that DePIN projects need to take on some responsibility.

My Macro take on crypto
#btc on the weekly doesnt look great. We closed lower than the 20 W EMA on the weekly which has consistently signaled the end of bear markets post halving (may 2021 being an exception). However, this is a weak argument imo and I think this cycle more closely resembles last cycle where we had the exception in May 2021 because there is more evidence that this cycle is not yet done.
https://www.tradingview.co.../
Based on cyclical data, where btc is this cycle indicates 2025 to be a key year as the year after halving is usually the best year.
Image below shows historical dates of mid cycle top/bottoms, and cycle tops/bottoms with dates of halving as well. We were at the mid-cycle top earlier this spring - represented by the purple dot in Cycle 4. If historical data suggests any clues on market cycle top, Q4 2025 would be the date.
Furthermore, the average days from previous cycle tops to current cycle tops are 1268 days. A conservative estimate would be a top in Q2 2025, with the possibility of an extension into Q4 2025 if this cycle follows more closely to the last 2 cycles which had 1450 days between cycle tops. More data suggests Q4 2025 cycle top as the last 2 cycles took 1060 days from cycle bottom to cycle peak.
https://www.tradingview.co.../
Some more data that confirms my biases:
- Average Number of days btc spent above 20 W EMA (last 2 cycles) = 802 days
- This cycle so far = 413 Days
- Number of days btc spent above 200 D MA (last 2 cycles) = 787 days
- This cycle so far = 462 Days.
To sum things up: the data suggests we still have about a year of bull market activity lined up. I'd say Q2 2025 cycle top is conservative given the macro environment. The Sahm Rule and other leading indicators of recession has me worried about the 2nd half of 2025. Economic data is almost always lagging and whether we are in a recession today or not, we will not know until 2 quarters from now. That being said, if Sahm Rule holds true and we enter recession in Q4, we won't know until at least Q2.

IP remains stuck in an outdated legal system that makes it difficult to license, monetize, & trade effectively
That's where StoryProtocol comes in -- a new blockchain that aims to transform IP into liquid, programmable, & ownable digital assets
A 101 Explainer👇
What is Story Network?
Story Network was created specifically for bringing IP onchain, making it easier to manage and monetize.
On Story Network, IP is represented as onchain assets called IP Assets, which are NFTs. These NFTs carry detailed metadata about the underlying IP and serve as its digital representations. They can be linked to existing NFTs, e.g. a CryptoPunk, or be issued to represent offchain items.
Each IP Asset is linked to an IP Account, a specialized smart contract that manages interactions and data related to the IP.
Also at the heart of Story Network is its Proof-of-Creativity (PoC) Protocol, which facilitates the creation and management of IP Assets, enabling use cases like permissionless licensing and automated royalty payments.
Another key pillar here is the Programmable IP License (PIL), a legal framework that bridges the onchain world with traditional legal systems, ensuring that the digital representation of IP on Story Network is enforceable in the real world.
How is Story Network designed?
Story Network is a Layer 1 (L1) blockchain optimized for handling complex IP data structures efficiently that leans on elements from both the ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM) and the cosmos
SDK.
Notably, Story Network is EVM-equivalent, meaning it supports the same code execution environment as Ethereum. This compatibility allows developers to port existing applications and smart contracts written in Ethereum's popular Solidity programming language to Story Network with minimal or no changes.
Why tokenize IP on Story Network?
Tokenizing IP on Story Network offers several notable benefits:
🌊 Liquidity — IP can be traded or used as collateral, creating new financial opportunities.
🧱 Programmability — Automated actions like royalty payments can be embedded within IP NFTs, simplifying management.
🔍 Transparency — The underlying blockchain provides a clear and immutable record of IP ownership and transactions.
These are compelling pillars for content creators, but what will the actual use cases look like?
For instance, artists, musicians, writers, and beyond can register their IP as NFTs on Story Network, set licensing terms, and automate royalty payments. This makes it easier to control and monetize their work.
For developers, they can build applications that leverage tokenized IP. Think things like AI model marketplaces, content remixing platforms, and DeFi apps that use IP NFTs as collateral.
Two of the earliest app examples in the Story ecosystem are Magma and Mahojin. The former is a collaborative design tool that uses Story Network to manage and monetize creative works via NFTs, while the latter is a platform for AI training data and models.
Zooming out
How might making IP programmable and liquid influence the interaction between creators and consumers? Will tokenizing and trading IP democratize access to creative works? And how effectively can the PIL system adapt to diverse global legal landscapes, especially as AI-generated content becomes more prevalent?
The answers to these questions remain to be seen, but Story Network is diving in here in unprecedented fashion and looking to revolutionize the future of digital IP through the cryptoeconomy. As the chain evolves and gains traction, its bull case is its potential to redefine IP management to be better in line with the content challenges of the 21st century.
Can Story win out, then? We'll see, but this innovative reach into a new terrain is exciting nonetheless!

That's where StoryProtocol comes in -- a new blockchain that aims to transform IP into liquid, programmable, & ownable digital assets
A 101 Explainer👇
What is Story Network?
Story Network was created specifically for bringing IP onchain, making it easier to manage and monetize.
On Story Network, IP is represented as onchain assets called IP Assets, which are NFTs. These NFTs carry detailed metadata about the underlying IP and serve as its digital representations. They can be linked to existing NFTs, e.g. a CryptoPunk, or be issued to represent offchain items.
Each IP Asset is linked to an IP Account, a specialized smart contract that manages interactions and data related to the IP.
Also at the heart of Story Network is its Proof-of-Creativity (PoC) Protocol, which facilitates the creation and management of IP Assets, enabling use cases like permissionless licensing and automated royalty payments.
Another key pillar here is the Programmable IP License (PIL), a legal framework that bridges the onchain world with traditional legal systems, ensuring that the digital representation of IP on Story Network is enforceable in the real world.

I hate when attractive women attribute the nice things men buy them as “manifestation”.
Be grateful.
“The cosmic universe” wouldn’t be so generous if you were ugly.
Manifest = Man fest.

This is an important subject, although sometimes gloomy, to consider when investing in cryptocurrency. Here are some things to consider to ensure the security of your digital assets after your death:
Estate planning: Only 37% of cryptocurrency holders in the United States have a plan to share information about their portfolio in the event of death. It is essential to establish a clear plan so that your loved ones can access your cryptos.
Secure storage of private keys: Make sure that your loved ones know the location of your private keys or your hardware wallet. Without this information, access to your cryptos may be impossible.
Dead Man's Switch: This programmed mechanism triggers the transfer of your private keys if you do not perform a specific action during a given period of time. This ensures that your loved ones can access your cryptos in an emergency12.

I'd like to talk about some of the things that have been said about my content.
I've been trying to relay information on my page for a while now, because I want to communicate with you and learn more and more. I inspire and produce almost all my content with sources every time, and some is content from journalists or creators who explain so many things in the best possible way that I put here. I quote everyone I see, and if I forget any, please let me know.
I'm not looking to be the first or anything, if it's the award you're only interested in I'll gladly give it to you.
For once we can always learn from others and make such a beautiful project interesting, let's not spoil anything.
I'm trying to improve every day with bullverse, and I'm learning a lot thanks to all of you, so thank you very much.
@pengbull , the peng family is all about moving the family forward, not having the biggest glacier 😉

I've always wondered why the stupidest people are the ones who want to be noticed the most, while those who get things done get shot down.
In the end, we always come back to the idea that it was better before, but before we ruined everything, so it's normal
It's become too fake for me

Solana co-founder Aeyakovenko responded to criticism of ZK compression on Solana.
His words were👇
“It’s an L2 that doesn’t need a security council multisig, users don’t need to switch chain ids, doesn’t need a governance token, doesn’t need an external sequencer, solana validators still get all the transaction fees.
It’s like an L2 without all the things that people complain about L2s.”

Stop operating on absolutes…
Just because you read something worked for a brand or an agency tells you what to do.
Do your own testing, analysis and decision making.
If things were absolutes we’d all be out of a job….
Remember this next time you read something and want to flip your entire business over to implement it.
