There are many DePIN projects which have not yet launched, but there are some that have (meaning you can begin earning right away and earn real crypto tokens). Here are some top noteworthy ones which you can download today and begin earning immediately:
KAGE
KAGE (by Chirp Wireless) allows you to scan wifi networks, bluetooth and cell towers to earn real $CHIRP, which launched today, January 20th, 2025. Just download the app, create a Chirp account, connect a SUI wallet, and turn it on to earn. It uses a good bit of battery, so it is best used in spurts, like when out walking or when you are driving, riding a bike, etc. This one is only available for Android users.
Make sure to use the code 5bd5c0a4 on sign-up to earn a bonus chunk of points (which convert into $CHIRP)
NODLE
Nodle is a project which aggregates bluetooth points for iot networks. Their $NODL coin is available on a number of major CEX's and does not use very much battery, which is great. Just download, create an account, and let it run in the background. Available for both Apple iOS and Android.

COIN by XYO
COIN is XYO Network's DePIN mobile app for earning by "geomining" as they call it. With the app open as you walk, drive, etc. you mine via geolocation. Each app acts as a node for the network, and the more you move, the more you earn. In-app coins can be converted into $XYO and sent either to your wallet or directly to Coinbase to avoid gas fees. COIN is one of the first DePIN apps around and it continues to be a good app for your DePIN arsenal, particularly if you get the additional Sentinal device to boost the mining rate, or if you pay for a premium plan. The premium plans are best if you drive a lot. Available for both Apple iOS and Android.

Sweatcoin
Sweatcoin has also been around for a few years, and you have a few options with it. You can earn Sweatcoin points in the main app and use those in their store, or you can connect it to their own Sweat Wallet and earn $SWEAT as well. The app runs in the background of your phone and simply counts your steps. Somewhat slow earning, but it doesn't use much battery, so it adds up over time.
