Datakeepers: contributors to DePIN

The DeNet Datakeepers network is rapidly expanding and becoming more robust. In May, we reached a total of 72 Datakeepers, who managed to send over 4000 proofs for storing users’ files. As a result, they earned a reward of 12.2+ TBY_mined and over 8.5 TBY were distributed as a system reward. Besides that, Datakeepers receive substantial rewards in the Store&Earn program due to an increased 4x boost for their role.

Building presence on the market

DeNet is steadily increasing its presence in the fast-growing DePIN market, actively participating in and contributing to the industry-related discussions and initiatives.

Thus, DeNet has become one of the projects highlighted in a video created by Your Friend Andy. Andy pointed out that DeNet is a project with genuine value and practical real-world use cases. In the video, Andy elaborated on the fundamental concept of DeNet, explained the advantages of launching a node, and provided simple instructions on how to begin earning rewards through the Store&Earn program.

DeNet was also featured in a video by Nordic. Nordic has already created a highly comprehensive video on setting up the DeNet node and we recommend watching it for those who are eager to become a Datakeeper. In the latest video, Nordic showcased his current earnings within the Store&Earn program. Keep in mind that shown rewards can be significantly increased with the Datakeepers boost.
