Bali, Indonesia – On February 28, 2025, the DPIN AI+DePIN Bali Summit convened at Bali’s LV8 Resort, uniting global experts, entrepreneurs, and innovators in artificial intelligence (AI) and Decentralized Physical Infrastructure Networks (DePIN). Hosted by DPIN with support from QPIN, 42DAO, and mainstream media, the event explored how AI and decentralized tech can transform the digital economy.
Robert Ian Bonnick, a noted Indonesian business strategist known for SpeakuP Monday – Destination Indonesia, emceed the summit. Opening with enthusiasm, he called it “a thrilling convergence of ideas and expertise,” setting an inspiring tone. He depicted it as a technical forum and a platform for global innovators to spark action.
DPIN, short for “Decentralized Physical Infrastructure Network,” is a blockchain-driven project aiming to build the world’s largest decentralized AI computing infrastructure by integrating global resources. Its focus is on rising demands in eSports, cloud gaming, AI training, and high-performance computing. Daniel Schwartz, Chief Operating Officer of DPIN Foundation, outlined this vision, emphasizing partnerships with 42DAO and Singapore’s Institute of High-Performance Computing (IHPC) for efficient, cost-effective solutions. He framed DPIN as a bridge linking the physical and digital realms, pushing decentralized tech into practice.
Shawn Tham, QPIN’s CEO, discussed how QPIN Labs merges Web3 and AI to support DPIN. Backed by A*STAR research, QPIN enhances DPIN’s performance and scalability, particularly in AI applications. Tham emphasized that this redefines decentralized computing efficiency, with QPIN optimizing AI training and system stability.
Irvan Tisnabudi of Morfolabs analyzed DePIN’s trends in the crypto landscape, noting projects like DPIN blend decentralized tech with real infrastructure. He praised DPIN’s token incentives for driving participation and network growth, suggesting they could shape blockchain’s future sustainability.
Kai, Co-Founder of ForU AI, addressed AI’s GPU shortages. Referencing China, he explored rising GPU demand for AI training and inference, along with supply and cost challenges. He highlighted DPIN’s decentralized network as a means to reduce reliance on centralized hardware, enhancing flexibility and affordability.
The summit’s core was a panel discussion on AI computing needs and decentralized scaling challenges. Schwartz detailed how DPIN’s resource integration with 42DAO boosts sectors like eSports, with IHPC aiding efficiency. Tham highlighted QPIN’s role in ensuring reliability in AI training via distributed computing while Tisnabudi tackled crypto hurdles—scalability, privacy, and costs—positioning DPIN’s incentives as a participation driver. Kai noted that DPIN’s decentralized approach mitigates GPU shortages, offering cost-effective solutions.
DPIN is expanding its ecosystem, attracting global developers and firms. Its partnership with IHPC ensures efficient, low-cost computing, leveraging decentralized scheduling and network resilience. This reduces centralized computing costs and enables flexible participation. DPIN’s vision—to connect the world through decentralized tech—empowers industries and individuals by democratizing computing power.
