What are the "DePIN" projects that people think are most likely to actually work? It feels like the category is a new name for something that's been around for a decade (StorJ, various decentralized ubers...) but has never gotten off the ground? So what's the bull case for why it will get off the ground now?

I wrote a long thesis on this. In my opinion,The bull case is - after defi, blockchains should focus on data and the data economy. DePins are great in getting real world data onchain. https://twitter.com/csvarun26396/status/1708809323437240452?t=Ln7446gUymOXRJtRSgnDIg&s=19

Hey Varun! Thanks for sharing. Am building a project to, among other things, gather real world data at scale (integrating blockchain & sensor technologies). Are you still working in this space?
