I’m getting older and I continue traveling a lot, so my health coverage isn’t always easy to manage. Something that would make sense for me is some sort of depin healthcare system.

Decentralized node infrastructure is the future we’re committed to buidling @rivet with our good friends @ Infura This to me is most important centralized element of the stack left to be decentralized https://www.infura.io/solutions/decentralized-infrastructure-service

Aside from DiN, I’m also a fan of the idea of a decentralized dockless scooter protocol—as local governments would not be able to hinder adoption of personal micromobility if there were no company serving as a single point of failure for them to target

You've tweeted about connected mobility and privacy upgraded with blockchain before. I think you'll really like DIMO. I'm a cofounder and would be honored to walk you through it. https://dimo.org/

With a viable proof of location you could do provable time and location for sensor data. Would still rely on an attested sensor, but it's less properties requiring the attesting

Incentivising mesh networks is the most logical use case. It’s the best way to harden crypto. The biggest point of vulnerability for a truely decentralised finance system is to have a government switch off or heavily throttle the internet. Decentralised mapping is cool too. Most excited about incentivising decentralised landscape video documentation (database of street view style imagery for all pedestrian accessible public spaces mapped with body cams to provide near real time infrastructure information to municipal authorities.)

I think what @helium and @xnet have been building has been pretty effective. Especially with carrier offload and more major carriers joint there existing network. It could be huge in the coming years
