DePIN Innovation Drives German Industry 5.0 Movement With 51nodes and World Mobile
Stuttgart, Germany, March 13th, 2025, Chainwire
51nodes, a leading German blockchain technology integration specialist, is set to build on World Mobile Chain, the Layer 3 blockchain developed by World Mobile, to deploy decentralized physical infrastructure solutions and blockchain-powered applications. These real-world applications will focus on data-based tokenized assets within Europe’s industrial sector, leveraging secure, enterprise-grade automation to drive efficiency and unlock new commercial opportunities. As part of this effort, a $5 million grant program will fund 50 projects, each receiving up to $100,000 to explore decentralized infrastructure use cases. Major German and European corporations are going to play a key role in being part of the grant projects and in shaping and scaling these initiatives.
Pushing Towards Real-World Asset Tokenization and DePIN Solutions
Backed by blockchain-powered automation and grants from World Mobile Chain, these initiatives will establish structured, tokenized asset frameworks designed to enhance security, refine rating mechanisms, and streamline the commercialization of data, inventories, and financial assets across multiple industries. 51nodes has already demonstrated this approach with various tier 1 industry clients by leveraging its expertise in corporate blockchain integration to prove the model’s viability.
Tokenizing, for example, geospatial data and sensor information coming from autonomous vehicles and allowing better orchestration of industrial processes is one way these grant projects will ensure the highest security standards for partners in critical infrastructure sectors while at the same time laying the groundwork for future data markets.
As industries move toward blockchain-powered automation, they must adapt to new financial and identity standards—from stablecoins and CBDCs to Digital Product Passports and decentralized corporate identity solutions. With the U.S. pushing for wider adoption of digital assets, European enterprises face growing pressure to integrate these technologies. 51nodes is ensuring they have the tools and expertise to do so effectively..
Strategic Industry Collaboration
This initiative combines 51nodes’ proven expertise in blockchain integration with World Mobile Chain’s advanced Layer-3 infrastructure on Base, alongside specialized insights from top industry partners. Together, they’re optimizing data monetization, streamlining asset transactions, and enhancing automation through real-world oracles—moving beyond legacy systems and overcoming the limitations of existing Layer-2 solutions.“We are excited to partner with World Mobile on this cutting-edge initiative and to partner with several industry leaders for the related projects,” says Jochen Kassberger, Co-Founder and Managing Director of 51nodes. “These projects will redefine how assets and data sets are structured, tokenized, and commercialized using blockchain technology.”
Expanding the Market for Tokenized Data
Joint endeavors like these will serve as practical reference models for industries aiming to leverage blockchain for secure data automation, efficient asset management, and streamlined financial operations. Funded projects could include notarizing sensor data for, establishing marketplaces for vehicle-captured and geospatial insights, orchestrating decentralized IoT networks in agriculture, facilitating seamless telco network rollouts, enabling efficient sector-coupling for vehicle charging, or empowering autonomous machinery to independently execute predefined actions based on real-time, on-chain data—all serving as examples of what’s possible through this collaboration. World Mobile Chain’s infrastructure plays a crucial role in ensuring high-throughput, low-cost blockchain transactions for existing and future applications. Micky Watkins, Founder and CEO at World Mobile Group, stated, “Industries and especially worldwide operating companies need better ways to automate, secure, and monetize data to stay competitive at the global level, and blockchain makes that possible. Partnering with 51nodes, and leveraging World Mobile Chain, we’re bringing real-world asset tokenization from theory to practice, helping enterprises streamline operations and unlock new value with decentralized infrastructure.”
