DePIN Crypto Coins

Is DePIN outperforming Bitcoin, and is leadership broad?

Bottom line

Geodnet ranks first for research priority in DePIN crypto at 64.1/100, and its native activity evidence clears the coverage gate. The theme's 13-week excess versus Bitcoin is -13.6% on 19% breadth, which is what decides whether that lead is isolated or broad. 2 of the 21 assets here carry enough native evidence to move past a tape-led label.

These DePIN coins are part of the cryptocurrency universe this site tracks daily — 894 of the top 1,000 crypto currency assets by market cap, priced from exchange closes and matched to protocol fees and revenue where a protocol publishes them.

The theme itself · before any single company

How has DePIN moved against Bitcoin?

The line below covers up to 5 years and opens on the 5Y view; the buttons cut it shorter. Over the most recent two of them this theme is 84% behind Bitcoin. Protocol revenue across its protocols grew 36% on average over the last four reported quarters.

DePIN, equal-weighted, based at 200 Bitcoin, same base, same start trailing 12-month protocol revenue rising falling

Both lines start at 200 in the same week, so the distance between them is the whole story: the theme line is an equal-weighted index of its 19 coins. The bars underneath are trailing 12-month protocol revenue, one bar per reported quarter, each member rebased to 100 at the start and the theme taking the median — so a price line pulling away from flat bars is a re-rating, not earnings. A bar turns red when that figure is lower than the quarter before. Rules are fixed and applied identically everywhere on this site: ahead by 5% or more over three months, or behind by 20% or more over a year while protocol revenue grew 20% or more. Hover any point to read both values and the gap. This is a description of what the numbers did, not advice.

4-Factor Crypto Evidence Score

A within-theme research-priority score for the 21 assets in DePIN, out of 100. The four displayed point contributions add exactly to the total, and the market regime changes the action label, never the arithmetic. Geodnet is highest at 64.1/100 on 86% evidence. It ranks research attention, not portfolio action.

Geodnet leads the current research queue at 64.1/100 with 86% evidence.
2/21 assets have enough native activity evidence to move beyond a tape-led label.

3 of the 24 DePIN coins are not rated this week: 2 have no price within 7 days, 1 reports no traded volume. They are listed in full below the ranking.

Missing native metrics are not scored as zero and are not silently reweighted. They pull only the affected factor toward neutral and lower its visible evidence percentage. An asset with nothing measurable at all is not scored at 50 either — it is listed as not rated.

Not rated — and why

3 of the 24 DePIN coins are not rated this week: 2 have no price within 7 days, 1 reports no traded volume. Each one stays on this page with its reason instead of being scored at the midpoint of a range nothing measured.

Methodology · boundaries make the answer useful

What can make this comparison misleading?

This DePIN comparison names 5 ways its own evidence can mislead, all listed below. The largest is that crypto network activity is not company earnings: protocol revenue does not automatically accrue to token holders. Coverage is also uneven — 2 of 21 assets carry enough native evidence to rank on more than price.

  • Crypto network activity is not company earnings. Protocol revenue does not automatically accrue to token holders.
  • Market-cap values are a dated universe snapshot, not point-in-time historical supply data.
  • Current category labels are applied to historical prices; this creates survivorship and taxonomy hindsight.
  • Funding rates, open interest, liquidations, exchange flows, unlock schedules, historical circulating supply and developer activity are not held and are not inferred.
  • Equal weighting is used for sector history because true historical market-cap weights are unavailable.

Questions the page should answer directly

Crypto analysis FAQs

These 20 answers cover the questions this page can settle from data it holds — what the category is, how the score is built, what the coverage gaps are, and what would change the read. Every answer below is also present in the page’s FAQ schema and in its plain-text rendition. None of them is a recommendation.

What is DePIN crypto?

DePIN crypto refers to cryptocurrency projects grouped by what they actually do rather than by market fashion. This page tracks 21 such coins by market cap, price and Bitcoin-relative strength, with protocol fees and revenue where a project publishes them. Readings are as of 2026-09-11.

What is the total market cap of DePIN crypto coins?

The 21 DePIN coins on this page have a combined market cap of about $2.6B as of 2026-07-04. Individual figures are in the table. Market-cap metadata is a dated snapshot, separately from the price series.

Are DePIN crypto coins outperforming Bitcoin?

DePIN has returned -14.1% versus Bitcoin over 52 weeks and -13.6% over 13 weeks on an equal-weight current-member index. 4/21 covered assets are above their 200-day averages as of 2026-09-11.

Which DePIN asset has the strongest research score?

Geodnet ranks first at 64.1/100: 17.0 + 23.0 + 17.2 + 6.9 = 64.1. It is labelled “Illiquid · research only” with 86% overall evidence and 72% native-economics evidence.

Why are some DePIN coins not rated?

3 of the 24 coins are not rated this week: 2 have no price within 7 days, 1 reports no traded volume. They stay listed with the reason beside each one rather than being scored at a neutral midpoint, because a missing reading is not a middling reading.

How is the DePIN 4-factor score calculated?

The exact sum is Market leadership /35 + Network and economic traction /30 + Value capture /20 + Liquidity and downside risk /15. Missing data pulls only the affected factor toward neutral and lowers evidence; it is never silently reweighted.

Why can a DePIN asset be labelled tape-led?

Tape-led means price and relative-strength evidence exists but less than half of the native traction and value-capture evidence is available. Such assets remain visible but rank below fully evidenced assets.

Does protocol revenue accrue to the token?

Not necessarily. Protocol fees and revenue measure network economics; token-holder value depends on the protocol’s burn, buyback, staking, distribution and governance rules. This page never assumes accrual merely because revenue exists.

Does crypto have a P/E or PEG ratio?

No comparable company-style P/E or PEG is used. Where coverage permits, the page shows network fee yield and protocol-revenue yield against a dated market-cap snapshot, with an explicit token-accrual caveat.

How much history is shown for DePIN?

The page shows five years of weekly price and relative-strength history and 20 complete calendar quarters of on-chain activity where available. Missing periods remain gaps.

Why do the crypto data dates differ?

Prices and technical metrics run through 2026-09-11; protocol activity through 2026-09-11; chain users and transactions through the latest available chain date; chain TVL through the latest available chain-TVL date; market capitalisation is a separate snapshot dated 2026-07-04.

Are stablecoins and wrapped tokens included in DePIN?

No. Pegged, wrapped, liquid-staking receipt and tokenized-asset instruments are excluded because they do not have independent price discovery.

Can one token appear in multiple raw crypto categories?

Yes, but pages on this site assign each asset to exactly one functional theme using a specific-to-general first-match taxonomy. DePIN therefore has one canonical membership list.

What would invalidate the current DePIN theme read?

Two of the three weakening conditions are already in place as of 2026-09-11: the 13-week return versus Bitcoin is -13.6% (below zero) and 4 of 21 covered assets are above the 200-day average (below one-third). The read depends on native protocol activity remaining supportive — a contraction there would complete the invalidation.

Does this page include funding rates, open interest or token unlocks?

No. Those datasets are not held in the current research store, so the page names them as unavailable rather than inferring them from price.

Which projects are generating the most network fees?

Geodnet leads DePIN crypto on Trailing 12-month fees at $6.8M, 175% ahead of Filecoin. 1 of 2 assets with comparable change data is growing. Coverage is 3 of the 21 ranked assets in this theme, through the Q2 2026 calendar quarter. Where a project publishes nothing, the cell stays blank rather than being read as zero. Investor read: Use this as a network-economics research lead, not token-holder earnings. Verify whether the measured activity accrues to the token before treating scale as value capture. This conclusion weakens if fee growth turns negative across two complete calendar quarters or fee coverage falls below the stated threshold.

Which projects convert activity into protocol revenue?

Geodnet leads DePIN crypto on Trailing 12-month revenue at $6.8M, 175% ahead of Filecoin. 1 of 2 assets with comparable change data is growing. Coverage is 3 of the 21 ranked assets in this theme, through the Q2 2026 calendar quarter. Where a project publishes nothing, the cell stays blank rather than being read as zero. Investor read: Use this as a network-economics research lead, not token-holder earnings. Verify whether the measured activity accrues to the token before treating scale as value capture. This conclusion weakens if revenue growth turns negative or the revenue-to-fees take rate falls for two complete calendar quarters.

Where is capital actually committed on-chain?

Ankr Network leads DePIN crypto on Quarter-end TVL at $17.9M. 0 of 1 asset with comparable change data are growing. Coverage is 2 of the 21 ranked assets in this theme, through the Q2 2026 calendar quarter. Where a project publishes nothing, the cell stays blank rather than being read as zero. Investor read: Use this as a network-economics research lead, not token-holder earnings. Verify whether the measured activity accrues to the token before treating scale as value capture. This conclusion weakens if TVL rises while fees and users fall; that pattern can be incentive-funded mercenary liquidity.

Which DePIN project has the largest fee base?

Geodnet leads covered trailing-12-month fees at $6.8M. Coverage is 3/21; this is network activity, not automatically token-holder income.

Which are the biggest DePIN crypto coins by market cap?

Beldex is the largest DePIN crypto coin by market capitalisation at $695.4M, ahead of Filecoin at $635.5M and BitTorrent at $262.2M. The 21 DePIN coins on this page carry $2.6B between them, with a market-cap figure on file for 21 of them. Market-cap metadata is dated 2026-07-04.
