DeNet - Earn Rewards with Storage & Validation

About DeNet

DeNet is a DePIN project where we get rewards for providing storage capacity or validating files using our phones. DeNet aims to become the native storage layer on the Peaq blockchain.

DeNet Setup Tutorial (Watcher Node and Datakeeper Node)

How to Start with DeNet

1. Download the DeNet app on a mobile phone.
2. In the app, under the Watcher Node feature, scroll down and use the referral code to get 1000 points right away: 0x2580c735fcebab94ddd88d6f45dbf453ecbe8780
3. Collect points and upgrade the Watcher Node, or reserve a Datakeeper Node for $100 to later provide storage capacity and earn from it.

DeNet Watcher Node

The Watcher Node is a feature in the DeNet app where users validate files on their storage network by simply clicking the point buttons. Collect points every 6 hours and use those points to upgrade the node to higher stages. Higher stages earn more points passively each day. There are also daily tasks to reset and launch the node several times per day.

DeNet Datakeeper Node

The Datakeeper Node is a way to provide storage capacity from home using a computer or minicomputer with external hard drives. It earns money and DeNet tokens when data is stored on our node. The setup of a Datakeeper Node is said to be easy (though it’s not available yet). Anyone can currently reserve a node for $100 (refundable with a 5% fee). Higher Watcher Node levels give bigger discounts on the final Datakeeper Node price. Datakeeper Nodes earn from two aspects: revenue from businesses storing data on our storage capacity, and DeNet token distributions (15% of the token supply goes to node deployers).

What’s Next for DeNet?

DeNet has migrated to the Peaq blockchain, where they might become the native storage layer for DePIN projects and web2 giants like Airbus, Bosch, and Mastercard. Datakeeper Nodes will relaunch in the upcoming months, with enterprise storage solutions live in the first half of 2025.
