DePIN Emerges as the Latest Cryptocurrency Venture Frenzy Investment Target

According to Jinse Finance, venture capitalists have poured billions of dollars into the DePIN field, with some investing all their funds in the DePIN protocol. Despite the current total market cap of DePIN projects reaching hundreds of billions of dollars, the industry faces one of the oldest challenges in the cryptocurrency field: relatively few customers. Analysts point out that DePIN projects with huge potential are those projects with a clear demand for underlying services, meaning that customers already exist.
