6 min readDec 15, 2024

At Silencio, we’re redefining how decentralized technology delivers real-world value. By transforming smartphones into hyper-local noise sensors, we’re building the world’s largest decentralized noise intelligence platform.

Today, we’re proud to share a transformative milestone: Silencio is the first Decentralized Physical Infrastructure Network (DePIN) to go fully on-chain on peaq, the blockchain powering the Machine Economy.

While many projects start with token launches, at Silencio, we’ve always believed that real-world impact comes first. With activity already on-chain, Silencio is setting the foundation for the next phase of DePIN innovation, powered by a growing community and cutting-edge blockchain infrastructure.

Let’s dive into why this matters and what it means for Silencio, peaq, and the broader blockchain and DePIN communities.

A Snapshot of Our Growth

Here’s a summary of Silencio’s key metrics since December 9th:

  1. Total Transactions: 164,226 on-chain transactions, demonstrating immediate scalability and network engagement.
  2. Active Device IDs (last 30d): 10,460 active devices consistently contributing and driving real-world utility.
  3. Daily New Device IDs: Over 2,500 new devices onboarded daily at peak.
  4. Daily Transactions: Activity surged past 30,000 daily transactions, highlighting real utility across diverse transaction types.
  5. DAUs (Daily Active Users): Active contributors have steadily grown, reaching a high of 6,386 DAUs.
  6. Cumulative Device IDs: A consistent upward trajectory with exponential device onboarding.
  7. Cumulative Transactions: Steady growth in transaction volume and diversity over time.

(Note: Numbers may differ as we progressively migrate Silencio’s users and app activity on-chain following our launch on December 9th, 2024.)

What This Means for the DePIN Ecosystem

Silencio’s on-chain migration represents a significant leap for the Decentralized Physical Infrastructure Network (DePIN) movement. Here’s why it matters:

  1. First-Mover Advantage: Silencio is the first fully on-chain DePIN on peaq, setting the benchmark for what’s achievable in this ecosystem.
  2. Enhanced Transparency: By bringing all activity on-chain, we ensure data authenticity, making our insights trusted and actionable.
  3. Scalable Growth: Powered by peaq’s high-performance blockchain, Silencio is now positioned to handle rapid expansion across devices, geographies, and use cases.

Powered by peaq: The Backbone of Silencio’s Innovation

Built on peaq, the blockchain for the Machine Economy, Silencio now enjoys unprecedented scalability and efficiency:

  • High Transaction Throughput: peaq’s architecture handles thousands of transactions per second, enabling seamless data integration.
  • Low Fees: Affordable transaction costs ensure sustainable scaling as Silencio grows its user base and data offerings.
  • Decentralized Device Identity: peaq’s unique DID framework ensures secure, verifiable connections between users and devices.

As the first DePIN project on peaq to go fully on-chain, Silencio sets the benchmark for what’s possible when cutting-edge blockchain technology meets real-world applications. This collaboration is a testament to the potential of Peaq’s ecosystem to drive innovation in the Machine Economy.
