The "2024 Hong Kong Web3 Carnival," co-hosted by Wanxiang Blockchain Lab and HashKey Group, and organized by W3ME, will be held from April 6 to April 9 at the Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition Centre. This carnival will adopt a "1+3+1" model, featuring 1 main venue, 3 sub-venues, and 1 Open Stage, discussing various aspects of Web3, allowing participants to experience the changes brought by the development of Web3 to the socio-economic landscape.
On April 7, arkreen, as a co-organizer of the 2024 Hong Kong Web3 Carnival, will host a DePIN-themed forum in sub-venue one. The forum will invite leading global DePIN projects to gather and discuss core topics such as DePIN's hardware and software technologies, development trends, investment enthusiasm, and the connection between DePIN and RWA.
Web3 is paving a cutting-edge development track, with various sub-tracks creating new narratives through competition and integration. DePIN, as a combination of the Internet of Things and Web3, represents a new direction with immense potential. Web3 must genuinely connect with the real economy and benefit the real world to avoid becoming a mere illusion. At this DePIN-themed forum, representatives from leading DePIN projects, including Helium Foundation CEO Abhay Kumar, DIMO co-founder Andy Chatham, EV3 co-founder Sal Gala, Open Infra Capital founder Ivy Peng, and Helium Foundation growth lead Yuan Gao (in no particular order), will share insights on DePIN's underlying technologies, applications, and development, discussing how DePIN can help build the Web3 world.
The focus of DePIN lies in the infrastructure and services of the real world, bridging IoT devices with Web3 mechanisms, effectively linking to the real world, and facilitating a "two-way journey" between Web3 and reality. What kind of collisions will its connection with RWA bring? Several guests from star projects and investment institutions will explore more possibilities of the integration between DePIN and RWA through keynote speeches and roundtable discussions.
DePIN has a natural intersection with distributed green energy and carbon neutrality, and this DePIN-themed forum will also delve into this topic, providing new ideas for the broader application of DePIN.
The convergence of the real world and the virtual world relies on the development of hardware and software integration technologies. Multiple representatives from popular projects that combine hardware and software will share insights on the gradual integration of decentralized hardware and software layers with community-owned new data economies from the perspective of DePIN empowerment.
What are the future development trends of DePIN? Which sub-tracks are more likely to break through? Representatives from leading investment institutions will share their investment experiences, discussing investment trends in DePIN and forecasting its future development and entrepreneurial hotspots.
At the same time, several emerging DePIN projects will also share their latest technologies at the forum, providing new ideas and perspectives for the development of DePIN.
It is worth mentioning that Future3 Campus will officially announce the recruitment notice for the second phase of the DePIN track at this themed forum, nurturing new talent for the future development of DePIN. The first phase team of Future3 Campus DePIN track, Roam (formerly MetaBlox), will provide a distributed Wi-Fi roaming experience for the audience in sub-venue one. Roam aims to build a user-centered global Wi-Fi OpenRoaming network, striving to integrate telecommunications infrastructure and blockchain technology globally. Users only need to download the MetaBlox App and complete the registration setup to automatically connect to the venue's Wi-Fi and earn corresponding reward points, enjoying free Wi-Fi while saying goodbye to the hassle of repeated logins.
