How is the development of DePIN on L1 and L2?
Although Solana is currently receiving a lot of attention, some well-known DePIN projects have begun to adopt Arbitrum and Polygon as their base chains.
With the development of the DePIN field, it can be foreseen that DePIN dedicated chains such as IoTex and Peaq and the L1 and L2 development of AI such as Near and Aptos will continue to grow.
