TAO and ICP Lead Surge in DePIN Social Activity as Interest Peaks

• The most active projects within DePIN are TAO and ICP, which have very healthy growth in community building.
• The Siacoin had a higher number of interactions per post, which implies viral interest and traction when compared to ICP.
• Smaller projects, like Soul, Render, and LPT, also gain some traction, signaling a broader shift towards DePIN usage.

TAO and Internet Computer (ICP) have been named the most socially active DePIN (Decentralized Physical Infrastructure Network) projects, according to data by Phoenix Group and LunarCrush. The listed metrics, as of June 14, 2025, indicate a spike in user activity in a range of blockchain infrastructure tokens.

In the same 24 hours, TAO had 6.9K engaged posts and 592.4K total interactions – easily ranked first in the category. ICP ranked second with 5.3K interested posts and 414.2K interactions, meaning that the community actively supports it and discussions are happening in the market. Engaged posts show the amount of online content that activated interaction, whereas total interactions comprise likes, comments, reposts, and additional user engagement indicators.

Social Volume Grows Around Smaller DePIN Players

Render (RNDR), Siacoin (SC), and Theta (THETA) were also gaining considerable momentum. Render received 3.2K engaged posts and 216.5K interactions as GPU-based decentralized rendering increasingly becomes a topic of interest.

Siacoin had 2.5K posts and an outsized 614.9K interactions, second only to TAO. This indicates the possibility of highly viral content even though original posts are fewer. Theta, in turn, recorded 2.2K engaged posts and 142.4K interactions, staying strong in the decentralized video streaming niche.

These data demonstrate that certain projects, despite having less content volume, can elicit a high user response. The interaction-to-post ratio is large in SC, making it one of the more resonant tokens in content reach.

DePIN Narrative Expands as Emerging Tokens See Uptick

The five projects with the highest ranking by lower volume are Elrond (EGLD), Livepeer (LPT), Soul, Filecoin (FIL), and Akash Network (AKT). EGLD received 1.8K interested posts and 129.8K interactions, and LPT got 1.7K posts and 58.0K interactions. FIL and AKT, though having less content creation, engaged over 113K and 68.5K interactions, respectively.

Soul, a newer kid on the block, drew 1.6K involved posts and 61.8K interactions, indicating its rising fame in the social scene. The increasing media coverage of the project reflects the growing interest in AI and DePIN crossover applications.

In its June 2025 Technology Convergence Report, the World Economic Forum projects that DePIN, currently estimated to be worth $30 billion, will reach an incredible $3.5 trillion by 2028. The report also projects this rise, which is accompanied by the expanding influence that DePIN is having in the worldwide technology community.
