DePIN (Decentralized Physical Infrastructure Networks) tokens support protocols that decentralize physical infrastructure—like storage, computing power, AI services, and networking—using blockchain incentives.
Instead of centralized providers (e.g. AWS, Google), DePIN projects harness spare hardware, IoT devices, and distributed nodes globally, enabling trustless, scalable infrastructure funded and governed by token holders.

Sallar transforms smartphones into nodes in a decentralized compute network built on Solana, enabling global mobile devices to contribute CPU power for AI, big data, cryptography, and scientific tasks in return for ALL tokens.
The Sallar network operates by rewarding users with Sallar tokens ($ALL) in exchange for sharing their device’s computational power. These tokens can be earned as rewards and further increased by holding them in a blockchain sub-wallet within the Sallar app. Users can connect to the network easily through the Sallar app, where they are assigned a blockchain sub-wallet for managing tokens. Token accumulation occurs in increments, capped at 20 Sallar per device. Users holding more tokens in their sub-wallet receive additional rewards, incentivizing both engagement and retention within the network, helping maintain stability and scalability.
