I’d say it’s a close linear relationship. The DePIN networks that have been the most successful this far have been the ones where your average person can contribute to the supply-side (hivemapper, helium 5G (wifi hotspots, not CBRS radios, Render)

It's much easier to convince retail to buy a ~$200-$400 device than it is to convince a professional deployment company to invest their time and purchase ~$2000 hardware to build out your network
