Hivemapper
summary
A decentralized mapping company builds a global map by selling a purpose device called the Hive Mapper dash cam and rewarding contributors with a crypto token called honey, and it reports mapping 10 million unique miles in two years (about 5x faster than Google Street View). The project claims supply-demand balancing via on-chain transparent rewards, serves three of the ten largest global map makers, and argues DPIN funding models let physical-world networks scale efficiently despite the post-2021 VC drought.
