depin, this time it's really not hype. How is the actual project implementation going? Don't tell me it's just a concept to cut leeks again.

Is depin about to rise again? Or is it just another hype... I really don't understand how these "distributed physical infrastructure" are supposed to be used.

DePIN's current narrative is a bit like the IoT bubble back in the day—concepts sound good but liquidity is poor... Truly scalable market-making projects are few and far between, most are still just hype stories. I haven't seen any real breakthroughs in capital efficiency; instead, LP yields keep dropping, and the surfing entry points haven't appeared yet.

DePIN may seem lively, but the key still depends on whether the underlying architecture has permission control vulnerabilities... I've heard too many cases where infrastructure projects were directly drained due to sloppy contract deployment, so no matter how good the concept is, it must pass an audit to be considered valid.

depin sounds good, but I don't know when it will really be implemented... right now, it's mostly conceptual hype.

Another DePIN brainwashing article, "gains traction," "emerging opportunities"... I've been hearing these phrases for three years. When will they actually be implemented? After one wave ends, another begins. Ponzi schemes and fund-raising tactics never go out of style.

depin is really happening now, but to be honest, I feel like there's still a lot of hype in the market assessment.

Depin does have some potential, but the real implementation depends on who can bring down the costs.

LiquidatedAgain

Is DePIN about to take off again? Listen, the last time I went all-in on physical infrastructure, I got liquidated to the point of doubting life. The lending rate hadn't even been adjusted before I was forcibly liquidated. Now that the trend seems to be turning again, I just want to ask—where exactly are the risk control points set? Isn't there talk of emerging opportunities? Why does every time I try to bottom fish, I end up stepping into a trap? I wish I had known earlier.
