The Crypto Conversation Pocket Network - Pioneering the DePin revolution
Dermot O'Riordan is the director of Pocket Network. Pocket Network's mission is to build censorship-resistant technology that will lay the foundation for reorganizing the world's institutions toward a more equitable, hyper-connected, interplanetary future.
Why you should listenPocket Network is one of the pioneering projects driving the DePin revolution. Since 2017, it has empowered developers with reliable, performant, and cost-effective access to blockchain data. It does this by decentralizing remote procedure calls (RPC), a standardized method for developers to interact with a blockchain network, allowing them to send and receive data from that network.
Decentralized Physical Infrastructures (DePIN) leverage blockchain technology to build and operate real-world physical infrastructure in a permissionless, trustless, and programmatic way. For some, this possibility represents the apex of what blockchain can achieve - giving distributed individuals the ability to collectively build, maintain, and operate networks without the need for a centralized entity.
