IoTeX, a DePIN modular Web3 infrastructure platform, has partnered with Nodle, a DePIN network that utilizes smartphones as edge nodes to connect the physical world to Web3. This collaboration aims to enhance interoperability, increase user adoption, and provide more infrastructure modularity. The partnership will be rolled out in phases, starting with Nodle integrating its device network map with DePINscan, making it the largest and fastest-growing DePIN project on the IoTeX platform with over 780,000 mobile devices. DePINscan, launched in August, has become a leading source for DePIN intel, hosting over 40 DePIN projects with a combined market cap of $40 billion. IoTeX has also introduced a new liquidity hub on the Mimo DEX, tailored for DePIN projects, which has seen about $800k of liquidity for the tokens of the 9 DePIN Liquidity Hub launch partners. The integration of Nodle and other large DePIN projects is expected to increase these figures, enhancing composability and ease of use between the two ecosystems.
