Bali, Indonesia – On February 28, 2025, the DPIN AI+DePIN Bali Summit was held at the picturesque LV 8 Resort Hotel, bringing together the world’s top experts, entrepreneurs and innovators in the field of AI and decentralized physical infrastructure networks (DePIN). This event hosted by DPIN, with the full support of QPIN, 4 2D AO and many mainstream media, aims to explore the deep integration of AI and decentralized technologies, promote revolutionary changes in the digital economy, and draw a blueprint for future technological development.
The event was hosted by Robert Ian Bonnick, a well-known Indonesian business growth strategist and international speaker. He has worked with international brands such as Hilton Hotels and MTV, and founded the popular show SpeakuP Monday – Destination Indonesia. At the beginning of the event, Robert enthusiastically called the summit an exciting intersection of ideas and expertise, creating an exciting atmosphere for the participants. He emphasized that this is not only a technology event, but also an important opportunity for global innovators to exchange ideas and explore practices.
DPIN, as a pioneer project of the decentralized physical infrastructure network, is committed to building decentralized infrastructure using blockchain technology. Its core mission is to integrate global computing resources to create the worlds largest AI computing infrastructure to meet the growing needs of e-sports, cloud games, AI model training and high-performance computing. At the summit, Daniel Schwartz, COO of the DPIN Foundation, elaborated on this grand vision, emphasizing that DPIN has not only improved its technical capabilities through strategic cooperation with 4 2D AO and the Institute of High Performance Computing (IHPC) of Singapore, but also provided efficient and low-cost computing solutions for users around the world. He also pointed out that DPIN is not only a technology platform, but also a key link between the real world and the digital economy, pursuing the successful implementation of decentralized technology in practical applications.
Shawn Tham, CEO of QPIN, then shared how QPIN Labs provides innovative support for DPIN through the deep integration of Web3 and AI technologies. Relying on the cutting-edge research results of A*STAR in Singapore, QPIN helps DPIN optimize computing performance and network scalability, especially in AI-driven high-performance application scenarios. Shawn said that this cooperation model redefines the efficiency and reliability of decentralized computing resources, injecting strong technical support into the DPIN ecosystem, and specifically mentioned the outstanding performance of QPINs technical solutions in AI model training and distributed computing optimization, ensuring the stability of the system under high load.
Irvan Tisnabudi, partner of Morfolabs, analyzed the development trend of DePIN in the field of cryptocurrency from the perspective of the industry as a whole. He believes that projects such as DPIN represent a wave of integration of decentralized technology and real infrastructure, opening up a new path for the practicality of blockchain. In particular, he mentioned the token incentive mechanism of DPIN, which not only encourages users to participate in ecological construction, but also provides economic motivation for network expansion. He said that this model may become the key to the promotion and economic sustainability of blockchain solutions in the future, and promote the large-scale application of decentralized technology.
Kai, co-founder of ForU AI, discussed in depth the GPU availability and performance bottlenecks faced by global AI. Combining the latest developments in the Chinese market, he analyzed the surge in demand for GPUs for AI model training and reasoning, as well as the supply chain and cost challenges that this has caused. He pointed out that DPINs decentralized computing network provides an innovative way to solve these problems, reducing dependence on centralized hardware through distributed resource scheduling while improving the flexibility and economy of computing. Kai also shared AI application cases he observed during his global travels, emphasizing the importance of cross-border integration of technology.
The core part of the summit was the roundtable discussion, where guests conducted in-depth discussions on AI computing needs, challenges of decentralized network expansion, and the future of the token economy. The collision of ideas inspired rich insights. Daniel Schwartz explained in detail how DPIN supports the development of the digital economy through the integration of global resources with 4 2D AO, especially the application prospects in high-growth areas such as e-sports and cloud games. He also mentioned that the cooperation with IHPC has given DPIN a significant advantage in computing efficiency and cost control. Shawn Tham focused on QPINs technical contributions and explained how it optimizes the performance and scalability of DPIN infrastructure, especially in terms of efficiency and reliability assurance of AI model training. He emphasized that QPINs distributed computing solution significantly improves the systems fault tolerance. Irvan Tisnabudi analyzed the challenges faced by the crypto industry in real-world applications, such as network scalability, data privacy, and operating costs, and proposed that DPINs token incentive mechanism may provide a breakthrough opportunity for more participants to join the ecosystem. Kai discussed the current situation of GPU supply and demand imbalance from the perspective of AI experts, pointing out that DPINs decentralized solution not only alleviates the pressure of hardware shortages, but also provides significant cost benefits for enterprises through flexible resource allocation. The wonderful interaction of the four guests presented multi-dimensional and all-round insights to the participants.
DPIN is accelerating its ecological construction, attracting global developers and enterprises to join. The cooperation with IHPC ensures efficient and low-cost computing solutions. Its core advantages lie in decentralized resource scheduling and high fault tolerance of distributed networks. This technical architecture not only reduces the high cost of traditional centralized computing, but also provides users with diverse and flexible ways to participate. DPINs vision is to connect the world through decentralized technology, release computing power, benefit more industries and individuals, and promote the popularization of technology.
Finally, Robert concluded: This is an unforgettable journey of exploring AI and decentralized innovation, and we have witnessed the future of technology together. He thanked all the guests and participants for their enthusiastic participation, and believed that this summit was not only a feast of ideas, but also a starting point for action.
The event on February 28, 2025, not only highlights DPIN’s leadership in AI and DePIN, but also further consolidates Bali’s position as the intersection of global technology and innovation. DPIN’s grand goal of connecting the world through decentralized technology is gradually turning from an idea into reality, injecting unlimited possibilities into the next stage of development of the digital economy.
