Wifi Dabba, an Indian internet service provider, is launching a second round of its DePIN-powered devices on the Solana network to bridge the digital divide and connect millions to the internet.
Internet connectivity in the world’s most populous country is about to become more decentralized thanks to a new decentralized physical infrastructure network (DePIN) innovation.
On March 15, internet service provider Wifi Dabba said it would deploy more than 100,000 of its devices — all housed on its DePIN on Solana — to users across India by the end of the year to “connect the unconnected.”
According to Wifi Dabba, despite India’s massive population of 1.43 billion people, the penetration of broadband connectivity is low. It reports only 30 million citizens have regular access to WiFi, with just under 50% having no access of any kind.
