Datagram ($DGRAM)
Buzzword-bloated DePIN for compute, storage, bandwidth.
Verdict: FAIL
- No engineering details, mostly buzzwords, feels cheap.
- Focusing on supply side, not demand.
- Team is not impressive.

Product
DePIN for compute, storage, bandwidth. “AI-driven coordination”, whatever that means. Also has a VPN service.
Node operators buy “Full Core Node” licenses, which are NFTs enabling the operator to run the Datagram node software on their computer.
Tried to download the source code for their CLI tool. But it was just empty.
Browsed through the documentation. Mostly buzzwords.
The whole thing feels cheap. Like something from 2018, with AI sprinkles.
Token
Token $DGRAM, used for payments. The docs say it’s on Avalance, but CoinMarketCap has it listed as BSC.
Team
CEO Jason Brink. Worked with Gala games acccording to whitepaper. Looks like a total idiot on his X profile pic. https://x.com/BitBenderBrink
Community
Decently active on X, and the Discord is decently active too. But I suspect it’s mostly people farming their token either by running their node software or engaging on social media. No technical discussion.
