DePIN Mentioned in White House Digital Assets Report

DePIN Gets Federal Recognition: What the White House Digital Asset Report Means for the Future of Infrastructure

On July 29, 2025, the White House released a landmark report titled Strengthening American Leadership in Digital Financial Technology, a sweeping policy document issued under Executive Order 14178. While the report covers a wide range of topics — from stablecoins and token registration to DeFi and digital identity — one line buried deep in the recommendations has made history for the DePIN ecosystem:

“Consider also an exemption for distributions of digital assets by decentralized physical infrastructure (DePIN) providers in securities transactions for purposes of rewarding participation in DePIN networks.”

This is the first time DePIN has been officially recognized in U.S. federal crypto policy. And it marks a major turning point in the journey from grassroots movement to national infrastructure conversation.
