What I did
Led research and writing of the report mapping India's DePIN landscape, commissioned by Superteam India ahead of the Solana Summit Bangalore 2025.
- Co-wrote the report with Nithin, conducting founder interviews across multiple DePIN projects to build 10+ original case studies, going beyond desk research to capture ground-level detail on infrastructure models, tokenomics, and go-to-market approaches specific to the Indian market.
- Structured the report around 4 distinct categories: Energy, Climate data, ride sharing, and gig economy.
- Received guidance and feedback from Aditya Shetty and Shek throughout the research and drafting process.
