peaq Network: Powering the Economy of Things

The peaq network is a decentralized blockchain platform designed to enable the Economy of Things (EoT) a system where machines, devices, and vehicles can autonomously interact, transact, and create value. Built on Polkadot’s Substrate framework, peaq combines scalability, security, and interoperability to support machine-to-machine (M2M) economies.

At its core, peaq provides a Layer-1 blockchain optimized for machine-centric applications. It allows machines to own identities, store data securely, and earn revenue by offering services. For example, electric vehicles can autonomously sell excess energy, drones can provide delivery services, and IoT devices can share sensor data all without human intervention.

Key features include:

• Decentralized Machine Identity (DID): Each machine gets a unique, verifiable identity, enabling trustless interactions.
• Tokenization & Rewards: Machines can earn tokens for services, creating new income streams and incentivizing participation.
• Interoperability: Built on Polkadot, peaq connects with other blockchains, ensuring seamless data and value exchange.
• Sustainability: By enabling resource sharing and automation, peaq promotes efficient energy use and reduces waste.

The network also supports dApps for machines, allowing developers to build applications that leverage machine data and services. This positions peaq as a backbone for industries like mobility, energy, and logistics, driving innovation in smart cities and autonomous systems.

In essence, peaq is not just a blockchain—it’s an infrastructure for a future where machines are economic agents, creating a decentralized, machine-driven economy that benefits businesses, individuals, and the environment.
