How Island Communities Are Using Blockchain to Escape the Red Button Economy | HackerNoon
Briefly

The article discusses the potential of Decentralized Physical Infrastructure Networks (DePIN) to transform not only internet infrastructure but also the monetary system globally. As computing technology advances, decentralized systems are projected to grow dramatically, offering alternatives to traditional centralized data centers. The piece illustrates a stark contrast between two hypothetical societies: one thriving with stable, 'perfect' money and the other suffering from inflation due to government-controlled money creation. This comparison mirrors current global economic issues, positioning DePIN as a means to foster monetary stability and equity.
Society A flourishes with stable prices, sustainable growth, and wealth distributed according to value creation. Society B suffers from perpetual inflation, wealth inequality, and citizens who work harder each year.
The global market for DePIN projections indicate growth to reach $3.5 trillion by 2028 with more than 13 million devices already contributing to various DePIN projects every day.
