In this episode, Sal interviews Leonard from Peaq, a layer-1 blockchain aimed at revolutionizing global infrastructure through decentralized physical infrastructure networks (DePIN). Leonard shares Peaq’s journey from a Berlin-based IoT consultancy in 2017 to a vast ecosystem with millions of onchain devices and $25 million in tokenized machines. They discuss Peaq’s appeal to DePIN builders, driven by its scalable architecture, enterprise connections, and a robust toolbox supporting machine IDs, data access, payments, rewards, and more. With over 50 projects on Peaq, Leonard envisions a community that emphasizes real-world applications over speculative projects, tackling trillion-dollar industries like energy, mobility, and robotics. Key timestamps cover topics such as Peaq’s DePIN toolbox, modular architecture, and an upcoming token launch.
