Decentralized Edge AI Platform Network3 to Launch $N3 Token Trading

WeatherXM is on a mission to establish a community-driven weather network in Africa, aimed at providing hyperlocal weather data where it is most needed. At the DePIN Summit 2025 held in Kenya and Zanzibar, the WeatherXM team engaged with founders and innovators in the Decentralized Physical Infrastructure Networks (DePIN) space. This summit was not merely a conference; it was an opportunity to witness how community-owned weather data can significantly improve the lives of local populations. The deployment of a single weather station has already shown the potential to empower entire regions, enabling them to make informed decisions regarding agriculture, safety, and climate resilience. In many rural areas, traditional weather forecasting methods are inadequate, leaving billions without reliable information. WeatherXM's approach is centered around community involvement, where each weather station is owned and operated by local individuals. This model not only provides essential weather insights but also fosters a sense of ownership and responsibility within the community. The collaboration with local partners, such as BLCK-IoT, has already seen over 170 weather stations deployed in Kenya, illustrating the growing impact of this initiative. WeatherXM believes that the future of weather forecasting should be built by the people, for the people. The journey to build this network has been deeply personal for the WeatherXM team. They have connected with farmers, community leaders, and educators who are eager to leverage real-time weather data for better decision-making. The team is committed to empowering local innovators by providing financial and operational support to launch sustainable projects that benefit their communities. As they prepare to unveil new initiatives, WeatherXM emphasizes the importance of strengthening community-driven infrastructure to uplift the entire DePIN ecosystem. Their heartfelt gratitude extends to the organizers of the DePIN Summit, fellow builders, and the welcoming communities of Kenya and Tanzania, who have inspired their mission to create a future that is truly community-owned and driven.

In July, DIMO is set to unveil exciting updates, including new low code and AI integrations, enhanced vehicle signals, and improvements to their Console.
