Irrigation decisions are among the most complex in agriculture. Too much water can harm soil health and waste resources, while too litle risks lower yields. Farmers have often had to rely on experience or general schedules, which rarely reflect the specific needs of a field. Dimitra's platform applies AI models to this problem by integrating several data sources: For instance, they integrate local weather forecasts and the growth stage of the crop. Combining these factors helps to generate irrigation plans that adapt daily and respond to changing conditions. Imo it's noteworthy that this is not limited to one geography or crop. ->In Indonesia, coffee producers face irregular rainfall, while in Mexico avocado growers contend with dry seasons and water competition. In both cases, the system helps farmers match water supply more closely to plant demand. That improves efficiency and reduces unnecessary withdrawals from already stressed water resources. Beyond immediate farm benefits, the approach has broader implications. Agriculture is the largest consumer of freshwater globally and smarter irrigation is important to long-term water sustainability. Tools like this also create records that can support certification, which is also increasingly required in international trade. Let me know what you think about this 👇 $DMTR

If you have been long enough here on CT, you know there are big groups of miners here... So for all the miners there is another type of opportunity to earn more crypto... Here is a short blueprint on how to get started 👇: Step 1: Choosing your equpiment You will need a GNSS receiver and an antenna. If possible, go for a triple or quad-band receiver since that improves both your contributon and your rewards. The receiver should support NTRIP server functionality so it can transmit data to the network. Step 2: Setting up your station Find a location with a stable internet connection and an unobstructed 360° view of the sky. You can place the antenna securely and avoid positioning it close to another onocoy station. A few kilometers of distance helps improve network diversity and increases your earnings. Step 3: Connect to the network Create an @onocoyRTK account and generate your login credentials. After that you can configure your receiver to connect to the onocoy server. The connection process only takes a few minutes. Once active, your station begins streaming data in real time. Step 4: Start receiving rewards After your setup is validated, rewards are credited based on how well your station performs. Some key factors are uptime, signal quality, hardware type or geographic diversity. But imo first figure out how to install everything up to this point. Then you can tweak your setting to increase rewards. You can claim and manage your $ONO tokens directly from your account dashboard. Let me know if there is anything that I can answer in particular about it 💪📣

🚨 Correct me if I’m wrong but I think $AUKI is the only robotics project in crypto already working with some of the biggest robotics companies in the world. Most so-called robotics projects in this space don’t actually work with robots at all. They’re all just riding the hype. With its hybrid robotics strategy @AukiNetwork has brought in retail giants as partners and is now on track to become one of the strongest revenue generating DePIN projects. There are certainly other great projects in other areas of DePAI such as $PEAQ, $NATIX, $HONEY, $DEUS and many more. But in terms of pure robotics $AUKI is really the player to watch in my opinion.
Nearly every VC in crypto wants robotics/DePAI exposure, yet there are still only a handful of opportunities in both private markets and public tokens. The question is whether founders think robotics is too early or just too difficult. Crypto is famous for chasing ideas long before they are viable. The ability to prematurely TGE and cash out lowers the resistance to build things that will not work for years. If that logic held robotics should already be flooded with attempts. The fact it is not suggests the real issue is relative difficulty. Robotics is booming in Web2 with no shortage of demand. And because most opportunities are still locked in private markets crypto offers a golden chance to provide exposure that does not exist elsewhere. Founders should be rushing to build in the space since it is an easy narrative to sell. The fact they are not shows many do not even know where to start and pursue easier opportunities as a result. Unlike AI which is accessible to a typical software dev the complexity of robotics and hardware is a turn off to potential founders. Why build in robotics when I could build an equally shiny crypto x ai protocol with less technical effort? That is exactly why I am bullish on the few serious teams at the intersection of robotics and crypto. The difficulty of robotics ensures only a few teams will break through and perhaps even attempt to build in the space but those that do will own one of the most durable moats in tech.

Indonesia’s coffee and cocoa sectors contribute billions to the national economy and support millions of rural livelihoods. I have talked abuot how many industries are now facing a decisive moment as the EU Deforestation Regulation deadline approaches in December 2024. I have referred to it with EUDR, now some of you might now what I am hinting at. Without proof that production is free of deforestation, exports to one of Indonesia’s most important markets risk being blocked. To address this, $DMTR and PT Surveyor Indonesia are in the process of onboarding over 3M registered farmers into a national digital compliance system. The approach behind it means that compliance is not limited to large estates. Smallholder farmers in Sumatra, Sulawesi and Java will be able to meet the same standards as large exporters.

Decentralised GNSS is not easy to understand... so let me attempt to explain it a bit easier so you can understand $ONO better 💪... Decentralized GNSS works a bit like GPS, but with an important difference (If there were no difference, it would be the same😅). Normal GPS uses satellites in space and a network of ground stations, usually run by one organization such as a government or a private company. These ground stations check the satellite signals and send out correction data to make positioning more accurate. In a decentralized system, the ground stations are not owned by one central operator. Instead, many different people or communities set up their own GNSS stations in different parts of the world. All these stations share their data in a common network. That network processes this data and provides precise positioning corrections for applications like farming and many others too. Because the stations are run by many independent operators, the network is more resistant to failures or attacks. It can expand coverage faster, as anyone can add a new station. Additionally, it can also be more transparent and safe costs compared to traditional centralized systems. That is exactly what $ONO / @onocoyRTK is doing!!!

I said I would add more on the important things that can be extracted from the new WP and here it is...: There are several new ideas and areas of main focus... > Carbon Credit Impact It is expected to generate over 1M verified carbon credits in the next 10+ years. > Investor Participation Investors can buy RWA tokens that give them a share in net profits from the project, not ownership of land or the carbon credits themselves. > Revenue Model Carbon credits will be sold through traditional market mechanisms meaning that they will not be tokenized. > Use of Funds Capital raised will cover project setup, operations, certification, verification processes, MRV (monitoring, reporting, verification) systems and community engagement with local farmers. So it goes to show that in theory most people should benefit from these initiative. More on the WP coming soon...👀
$DMTR just unveiled their new Whitepaper and I want to share some bits about what stuck out to me ... First part that was quite interesting ... is thier Carbon Real World Asset Program in Mexico. Over there they have initiated a large-scale carbon campaign that covers over 23K of hectares of protected forest. Local communities and farmers are responsible to manage the area with a focus on environmental conservation. According to their report the project will produce more than 1.1M verified carbon credits over more than ten years. These credits result from measurable climate action and will be sold on international carbon markets. Revenue will go to local partners and participating investors. Participants receive a Real World Asset that reflects a share of the project’s profits, with contributions possible in $DMTR, USDC or also USDT. As I read more about it I will share some other stuff too. Let me know if there is sth specific that interests you...💪

. @onocoyRTK has a huge numbers of GNSS stations, 6K verified GNSS stations to be precise 👀 For those who are not aware about it... They are building a global RTK network that is run by THE community. It has several uescases, from autonomous navigation to precision agriculture... 🌾 But what is the issue that they are solving?... Fake satellite signals can mislead planes and cars. These attacks are becoming harder to detect. onocoy is working with a top university namely ETH Zurich and with support from the European Space Agency, to create detection tools that work in real time. These tools can learn as threats change and run on a decentralized network. Honestly speaking, this work fits well with onocoy’s mission to build the densest GNSS reference station network FOR the community BY the community. You can also see the progress below on the map 👇

Some good news from @futureverse 💪🏄‍♂️ The MESSARI itself covered them and their progress. Here are some of the most important points, I will try to make a more complete summary of their takes... 🔷@TheRootNetwork introduced the RootRewards campaign to encourage consistent onchain activity. This initiative was aimed at supporting the network’s long-term expansion. 🔷After RootRewards went live, FuturePass issuance rose starkly from 546K in March to more than 2.1M by June, which is crazy progress. 🔷The company also rolled out Altered State Alpha v2 in order to improve avatar quality and to add direct UBF export. 🔷In April of this year, Futureverse bought up Candy Digital so now they have integrated over 1.5M users and 4M digital collectibles into its platform. Something else that Messari mentioned are their real partnership... 🔷They strengthened their reach through impressive partnerships with FC Barcelona, Rakuten Wallet, Glenn Maxwell, GameTree and Story Protocol $IP. This clearly shows how underrated $ROOT is imo even though the past months have been rough for gaming projects in general. Hence I understand the frustration too but the fact that an OG crypto company acknowledges their accomplishments is great. I would love to see more marketing efforts from the team around @aaronmcdnz. $ASTO $THINK $SYLO

As most of you know Dimitra is a project that is very big on agricultural tools. Built on decentralized infrastructure, it allows applications to function securely and transparently across multiple regions and farming systems. Agribusinesses use the protocol to access services like crop forecasting, environmental compliance tools and carbon credit measurement. All interactions are recorded via blockchain, with transactions handled through $DMTR. The system supports multiple blockchains including Polygon and Solana, allowing flexible deployment across different environments. Imo what is more notable is its ability to streamline AI access without the need for deep blockchain knowledge. The architecture manages processes automatically. Dimitra reports that they currently have over 4.6M farms under contract. Future plans include scaling the Protocol to support carbon initiatives and broader trade finance solutions by 2026. What is most commendable imo: The team is constantly shipping. What is your take here?

Price action from $ROSE has been strong the last month even though we see a general price slop (which often happens in August) anyways... As I wsa checking the newest updates I saw their progress around the ROFL rollout along with their TEE technology. But many people do not exactly know what TEE is and why it matters... So Let's change that 😀 Blockchains traditionally require all participants to see the same data, which works well for transparency and verification. But it makes it hard to protect sensitive information. That’s a big problem in use cases like private payments, medical data, or proprietary algorithms. This is where you need both privacy and trust. Trusted Execution Environments (TEEs) help address this by allowing data to be processed securely and out of view, even from the people running the system. Oasis network applies this concept directly: its confidential runtimes like Sapphire and Cipher rely on TEEs to keep contract data hidden from node operators. These runtimes allow developers to choose whether a smart contract is fully private, fully open, or somewhere in between. The recently launched ROFL mainnet builds on this by supporting private and trustless apps that run off the main blockchain while remaining verifiable. To do this, Oasis combines TEEs with other tools like light clients and verifiable randomness (VRFs) which by the way is often used by oracle projects like @witnet_io or @BandProtocol as well. Overall the goal is layered protection through e.g. cryptographic checks and strict policy enforcement. For example, the key manager ensures that sensitive material can only be accessed by approved enclaves under signed rules. Even during network upgrades, each runtime verifies the consensus layer independently, which can help to prevent manipulation from within or outside the system. So... In short, @OasisProtocol is one of the few blockchain platforms that makes practical use of TEEs. ROFL is the next step in turning that infrastructure into usable applications. I hope this application on TEE could be of use to you 🫵 Let me know about questions down below...

I have already shared a few posts on Dimitra's ESG initiatives, if some of you remember properly. There si a small update here in that regard... Brazil, for instance, is taking ESG in agriculture seriously. Abrafrutas (which has partnered up with $DMTR) will launch the Frutas do Brasil Seal. In particular, its a new certification to recognize sustainable practices across the fruit sector. It is based on Dimitra Brasil’s digital platform and it can help producers in assessing and aligning with global demands. Some of those focus areas are... • Carbon mapping (60% by 2031) • Water use & soil health • Gender equality & living wages • Bio-inputs & emissions tracking Imo that is a great measure that is being adapted but I would like to see more progress and updates in this regard...

Dimitra's CEO had another interview at another outlet.... Let's see what he was saying...👇 ------------------------------------------------- The EU’s deforestation law was meant to set a clear standard. Instead, changing timelines and political pressure are starting to become real issues. Jon says that farmers are losing faith. In Indonesia, a campaign to onboard 3 million smallholders into EUDR compliance has stalled. Infrastructure isn’t ready. And local urgency has faded. “When deadlines move, so do priorities,” he told Wood Central. “Producers start wondering if the regulation will ever really matter.” Jon also states that the picture is similar in Ethiopia. Over 5M coffee farmers are stuck in uncertainty. No one wants to invest time and money in a system that keeps changing shape. The problem here isn’t about missing tools. What’s missing is political will. “The longer this drags on, the more we undermine the trust and progress already made,” he warns. “We don’t need more debate. We need leadership and clarity.” If the EU wants this regulation to work, it must stop moving the goalposts. Farmers at the beginning of the supply chain deserve better. Let me know what you think 🫡🎥
🌲Millions of farmers are working toward EUDR compliance. Shifting timelines, however, make that progress harder to sustain. Dimitra CEO Jon Trask spoke with @WoodCentralAU1 about what’s needed next 🔗 woodcentral.com.au/eu-must-s… #EUDR

Onocoy has been included in the RWA DePIN Alliance list curated by Rynus. 💪🙌 Who are they though? Rynus is a decentralized GPU cloud platform focused on AI and data infrastructure. They provide GPU power for tasks like data labeling and model training, using a peer-to-peer system that emphasizes reliability and speed. Its goal is to make computational resources more accessible by reducing dependence on centralized providers and addressing the gap between demand and available infrastructure. Their list highlights other player in the broader ecosystem of physical networks built on blockchain rails. And now $ONO is part of it ✌️ Love to see this recognition 🏄‍♂️🔥

Indonesia X Dimitra ✊📣💪 Dimitra's CEO Jon Trask recently joined PT Surveyor Indonesia’s leadership team on-site to assess the national dashboard project. I have talked about this initiative before... but there is more on it. As a reminder it is a joint initiative aimed at boosting compliance and farmer inclusion at scale. With SEA Director Ricky Tanudibrata and President Sandry Pasambuna, the visit underlined the importance of building national systems that work from the ground up. The system brings together remote sensing and local reporting to establish a clearer chain of information. It can be helpful in supporting farmers to document practices and help national institutions prepare for stricter sustainability rules. Have a look here below 💥👇

$ONO and the miner ecosystem is inseparable. That is why I looked into the RTK devices... But what are they in particular...? One ONO RTK device is a real-time kinematic (RTK) correction service that provides highly accurate positioning data by using signals from global navigation satellite systems (GNSS) like GPS, Galileo, Glonass and BeiDou. It’s designed for professionals in fields like surveying, agriculture, construction and robotics who need centimeter-level precision. So how does it work?🔧 RTK improves the accuracy of satellite-based location data from meters to centimeters. onocoy RTK sends correction data to your GNSS receiver (called a rover) using nearby fixed base stations. And what makes onocoy unique ? A couple of features .... 🔷Decentralized: Built on a blockchain-based DePIN infrastructure, the network grows through community-contributed base stations (miners). 🔷Flexible access: You connect to the closest base station with automatic handover and fallback if one fails. 🔷Affordable: The service uses a dual pricing model: a low monthly base fee ($20/month) and a pay-per-use fee (15¢ per hour). 🔷Global: Coverage is expanding through community contributions and shared infrastructure. 🔷Accessible: Data is delivered over standard protocols (NTRIP 1.0/2.0, HTTP) and supports encrypted as well as unencrypted access.
