Introducing Device Verification (DV) on UpRock!

The UpRock team has been working hard to release one of the most challenging and critical features for DePIN projects: Device Verification (DV).

🔍 What is Device Verification?
DV is a sophisticated system designed to ensure fairness, authenticity, and transparency within the UpRock ecosystem. By implementing a scoring system that verifies real devices based on hardware specs and usage patterns, we are taking a big step toward eliminating fraud and simulated environments. Genuine users will now be rewarded for their legitimate contributions, leveling the playing field for all! 🎯

❌ KYC Out, DV In!
We’re not fans of KYC either—so instead, we’re focusing on DV to ensure fairness. Though we’ll keep KYC on the side for specific tough cases, the future of UpRock is all about verification through the devices themselves. For now, DV is rolling out to our Android users first, with iOS and other platforms to follow soon!

🔧 How Does it Work?
Once Android users update the app, they’ll see a new feature under Wallet > Devices called Device Testing.Here’s what to expect:


1️⃣ Testing Devices: We’ll run a short series of tests on your device to verify it’s real. During this time, make sure UpRock stays active in the background to avoid interruptions.2️⃣ Testing in Progress: You’ll get a notification when the testing is complete (it takes up to 7 days). Keep UpRock running to ensure your device gets verified!
3️⃣ Possible Outcomes: If your device passes, balances will be sent to your wallet. If it fails (e.g., due to emulators or detected mischief), you’ll be informed.


⚖️ Fair Distribution RoadmapThis update follows our Fair Distribution Roadmap, ensuring that rewards go to real, contributing members of the UpRock community. 🏅


🔜 What’s Next?DV will soon expand to iOS and other platforms. Stay tuned for more updates as we roll out this essential feature!


💪 To be honest, we’re quite relieved with this big step forward—let’s keep growing together!

“..the whole idea is you need devices all around the world to understand the information around the world..”

In this recent interview with Jack Kubinec from Blockworks, Sean Carey, co-founder of Helium and leader of Borderless Capital’s $100M DePIN Fund III, sheds light on UpRock as a prime example of a Commodity DePIN project, using an Amazon use case to highlight our utility.

Notably, Borderless Capital also led UpRock's $4M Seed Round, underscoring their belief in our mission!

🎥 Watch the Full Video Here:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EfDKSA2wgtg&t=2400s

⏱️ Sean’s Take on UpRock starts at [35:02]:What Infrastructure Makes the Most Sense For DePIN?Highlights:

✅ UpRock’s Utility: Sean explains how UpRock enables distributed data gathering from global devices, avoiding commercial IP blocks—using Amazon as an example.“..you can’t start a server on EC2 and then go crawl Amazon’s Marketplace, it will hit you with the banhammer so fast right?"

✅ Global Competitive Insights: UpRock empowers data collection across millions of mobile devices worldwide, offering unparalleled reach—from England to California, Sri Lanka, and beyond.“..imagine UpRock can dispatch that, crawl it, bring the data back, and put it all together for you.."

✅ Adaptability: Whether it's competitive analysis, AI data collection, or other decentralized applications, UpRock turns everyday user devices into powerful, secure tools for data-driven insights. 🌍📱“And it’s not just about crawling right, it could do anything, it could be collecting data for AI for instance, right?”

A massive thanks to Sean and Jack for showcasing UpRock's potential in DePIN! 💪
