DePIN network incentives are economic mechanisms, often denominated in native tokens, designed to encourage participants to contribute resources and maintain decentralized physical infrastructure networks. These incentives reward providers for deploying and operating hardware, such as wireless routers, storage devices, or sensors, that collectively form a distributed infrastructure. The compensation aims to ensure network coverage, reliability, and expansion. It aligns the interests of individual contributors with overall network growth.
