Recorded at the EV3 DePIN Summit in Kenya, Connor speaks with Manolis Nikiforakis, CEO and Co-founder of WeatherXM, about how the company is revolutionizing weather data collection using IoT technology and crypto incentives. Manolis shares insights into their growing network of around 10,000 weather stations, with a focus on expanding coverage in the Global South where data is most scarce. The duo discusses the ambitious goal of deploying 30 million stations worldwide to dramatically improve weather accuracy. They explore how the use of blockchain - specifically Solana - helps incentivize local participation, drive community engagement, and support new revenue models, all while emphasizing the critical importance of data quality.
