On December 25, the DePIN project Roam officially launched the Roam Discovery Ecosystem. This innovative platform aims to help Roam users gain more co-construction benefits through the collaborative network with ecological partners, jointly promoting the large-scale landing of Web3 applications. Roam, the world's largest DePIN network entrance, currently has over 1.7 million registered users globally, with more than 1 million self-built WiFi nodes and supports 3.5 million OpenRoamingTM nodes. This is an open wireless network covering over 200 countries and regions and is still expanding. Through Roam Discovery, mature collaborative projects will be deeply integrated into the Roam decentralized wireless network ecosystem, using WiFi nodes as the entry point to carry out ecological cooperation around node value, user agreements, and other means. On the other hand, Roam Discovery will also provide innovative startup project partners with a complete set of underlying software tools based on the Roam ecosystem, global WiFi node support, and a large global user base, grants, and community resources, thereby helping new projects complete early construction and continually promote the development of the entire ecosystem. As a brand-new pioneering ecological system, Roam Discovery can be broken down into a three-layer architecture that utilizes the world's largest decentralized wireless network to support ecological projects and drive innovation. It includes four core components: the bottom layer - Roam Physical L1: creating a physical hardware L1 based on the Roam router. The middle layer - Proof of Presence protocol and WiFi node stack (Roam OS): providing collaborative samples and a mature set of development tools for ecological project parties. Application layer: promoting innovation and user participation within the Roam ecosystem through the combination of user samples and distributed networks, incentivizing and supporting the development of new projects. Through these four core components, Roam Discovery provides a complete set of bottom-up data services and technical support for collaborative project parties at different progress stages, offering users more diversified revenue channels. In addition, Roam Discovery will also help innovative new projects complete early construction through community support. Users can stake $ROAM tokens to support various ecosystem innovation projects, helping project parties attract more new users to join the Roam network while completing co-construction within the Roam ecosystem. The Roam Foundation will provide grant incentives to collaborative projects based on the number of $ROAM tokens staked by users at a 1:1 ratio, assisting them in completing early construction. The first batch of 20 ecological partners Along with Roam Discovery, 20 ecological collaborative projects are launching simultaneously. These projects come from various fields such as Layer 1, PayFi, and AI, with each project playing a key role in driving innovation within its respective field, including: Infrastructure: IoTeX, providing modular infrastructure for DePIN accessible to all. PayFi projects: Huma Finance and PolyFlow, promoting decentralized finance and AI-driven payment systems. Decentralized data solutions: Mind Network, providing secure and encrypted data generation. Promoting large-scale Web3 application landing In September 2024, Roam proposed building a Physical L1 for the DePIN ecosystem to connect and share data between people, devices, assets, and AI. Three months later, the Discovery Ecosystem launched successfully, achieving cooperation with 20 industry-leading projects. It can be seen that these collaborative projects include well-known projects in the industry as well as startups, continuously promoting project development through Roam's open global wireless network, jointly pushing for the large-scale landing of Web3 applications. In connecting Web2 and Web3 and continually promoting the large-scale adoption of Web3, Roam has been "constantly delivering": In the past year, Roam has achieved over 1 million registered users and self-built WiFi nodes, with 670,000 new users added in November according to Solana Syndica's research report, a growth of 4.6 times compared to October, while the number of WiFi nodes has maintained an addition of 100,000 for three consecutive months since September. (Source: Deep Dive: Solana DePIN - November 2024) In less than a year, Roam has developed into a leading DePIN project with 1.7 million users and 1 million self-built nodes, and last week, Roam released its roadmap for 2025, which includes 11 major updates covering products, technology, and community, with Roam Discovery being one of them. With this steady and even ahead-of-schedule development pace, we can expect even more in the future.
