DePIN-Powered AIOZ Network: Revolutionizing the Internet Through Decentralized Infrastructure
Web3's sleeping giant awakens—and it's building the internet's backbone from the ground up.
The Infrastructure Revolution
AIOZ Network leverages decentralized physical infrastructure networks to bypass traditional tech monopolies. No more centralized chokeholds controlling data flow or content distribution. The protocol turns everyday devices into network nodes—creating a global mesh that pays users for participation.
Tokenomics That Actually Work
While traditional cloud services bleed customers dry with subscription fees, AIOZ's incentive model flips the script. Participants earn tokens for sharing storage, bandwidth, and computing power. It's the rare crypto project where the economics don't feel like a pyramid scheme dressed in blockchain clothing.
The DePIN Advantage
This isn't another vaporware blockchain promise. Real hardware supporting real networks—from video streaming to AI computation. The network scales organically as more users join, creating a virtuous cycle that centralized providers can't match without raising prices.
Because nothing says 'disruption' like cutting out the middleman and letting people actually own the infrastructure they use daily. Take that, legacy tech giants.
AIOZ Network’s three DePIN-powered pillars
Those three pillars, Distributed Storage, AI Compute, and Media Streaming, are delivered through a global network of DePIN-powered nodes.
Its AIOZ Storage product is a contributor-driven, S3-compatible object storage LAYER designed for both Web2 and Web3 applications. AIOZ Storage “enables high-performance, low-latency read/write operations,” Erman explained, adding that it provides a “cost-efficient alternative to centralized storage” for applications such as AI training datasets, dApp storage, and scalable application backends.

AIOZ Pin is a distributed IPFS pinning infrastructure built for immutable, content-addressed asset storage, optimized for non-fungible tokens, distributed identities, and digital archiving. Vast amounts of online content from the early 2010s have now vanished without a trace, but this product is geared toward long-term availability and tamper-resistant access.
Video has never been more popular online, with a constellation of apps now used to distribute footage. AIOZ Stream is a peer-to-peer infrastructure that aims to give creators “control, ownership, and monetization over their content,” Erman said.
From shorter clips to long-form films, and live broadcasts to video on demand, this product is designed to provide “scalable, cost-effective media delivery for Web3 platforms and independent creators,” Erman explained. Support also extends to audio content—including music publishing, live streams, and podcast hosting.
With artificial intelligence making inroads in both enterprise and consumer applications, AIOZ Network has developed AIOZ AI, a distributed compute platform and AI marketplace that enables developers to “deploy, monetize, and access AI models and datasets.”
AIOZ AI “transforms AI infrastructure into an open, community-driven economy,” bridging the gap between AI and blockchain by delivering on-chain monetization. It paves the way for AI assets and dapps to be tokenized, Erman explained, forming a vital component in the ecosystem's vision to ensure next-gen infrastructure is open and community-driven, rather than hidden behind closed doors.
Powering Web3 through DePIN
Underpinning all of these elements is DePIN, with over 300,000 devices forming the backbone for compute, storage, pinning and streaming. This forms a “scalable, distributed backbone for storage, AI compute, and content delivery,” with contributors unlocking the potential for token rewards for the value they add to the ecosystem.
AIOZ Network supports Cosmos, the ethereum Virtual Machine and a plethora of multi-chain integrations, bringing together AI, blockchain, and distributed computing for “scalable AI inferencing and monetization,” Erman said.
“What sets AIOZ Network apart is its seamless integration of blockchain technology, AI capabilities, and media infrastructure,” Erman added, noting that they combine to provide “scalable, secure, verifiable, resilient, and fault‑tolerant digital services.”
