DePIN Digest
February 14, 2026

GM, happy Saturday! It’s Matt, and we’re spreading the love with the Valentine's Day issue of the Digest.

Cupid has been busy recently, and so has DePIN: Helium Mobile handled a 15% traffic surge during the Big Game weekend, while Onocoy signed a long-term data-provision agreement that integrates 1,000+ stations worldwide.

Peaq’s thoughtful gift included the Value Loop Toolkit beta in a step toward revenue-backed token emissions for DePIN companies. 

Stellar timing, too, as we discussed token inflation and RWA overlaps on this episode of The Relay (featuring panelists Bradley Meyer and Ray Buckton).

Now let’s spread some love.

🤝 Budding Relationships

DePIN companies have been chatting up partners and integrating innovations this week:

🔌 Minima x RelAI - Integritas on AI Marketplace
🔌 Flashback x 0G - 0G Chain, Storage, and Compute
🔌 Jaineon0G x 0G - Cross-Swap
🔌 ZooFinance x 0G - Liquid DeAI
🔌 Delysium x ClawBot - LucyOSAI

With friends like these, it’s onward and upward for the industry.

🗺️ Going the Distance

The journey is the destination as the saying goes, and LayerDrone is charting its next course:  participating in GeoWeekExpo in Denver. 

Meanwhile, NATIX Network outlined its January progress, noting 269K drivers and a Valeo partnership, while Onocoy activated some High Value Areas across the globe. Nubila introduced an airdrop fix, with claims going live on February 12th.

Speaking of value, Helium Proposal Release 2026-02 was broadcast to remove CDR verification for Mobile PoC eligibility; DoubleZero activated new 100 Gbps paths between Miami-Dallas and Miami-Washington; and Chirp chronicled Changelog 2.2.1 while teasing major releases.

To top it all off, World Mobile deployed 113,083 AirNodes this week, just before ETH Denver.

💻 Love at First Byte

It wouldn't be a Valentine's Day edition of the Digest if we didn't bring you news on your favorite AI Companions. 

Kicking things off, Silencio announced client purchases of high-quality voice recordings across multiple languages to drive the humanoid robotics revolution, while XMAQUINA reported that its second DAO position is up more than 2x following 1X Technologies’ valuation update.

Intelligent updates across the board as 375ai teased the upcoming release of 375go V2 with early access, and Hypercycle dropped its CBNO update with new features. 

NodeOps has also been hard at work, releasing CreateOS as a unified execution environment for AI builders, as total revenue surpasses $4.5M. As revenue came in, NodeOps executed its weekly $NODE burn and announced the closing date for ESP airdrop registrations. 

Cudos to CUDOS launching fiat payments on ASI:Cloud while simultaneously introducing new VM rental flows to simplify deployment. AIOZ Network, meanwhile, shipped Static Website Hosting on AIOZ Storage with global CDN.

Titan Network’s Browser Extension received a major monetization update, and Nosana updated its deployments, with Ar.io facilitating data uploads via a Python SDK for Turbo.

Rounding things out, IoTeX recently represented DePIN at a Consensus HK panel on adoption, and Hivello is unlocking $HVLO staking funds through the end of the month.
