Vangrid

Physical AI needs fresh, verifiable data from the real world, and the Vangrid Airdrop rewards contributors for collecting spatial data through Vangrid’s DePIN network. Contributors earn PTC rewards, set to convert into $VAN tokens at TGE. The token launch is confirmed, while the final airdrop eligibility rules and PTC-to-$VAN conversion rate have not been announced yet.

The Vangrid Rewards Hub gives contributors several ways to earn PTC through Grid Tasks, referrals, app milestones, video submissions, badges, and leaderboard activity. The platform also promotes a $100,000 Rewards Program for early contributors.

Some activities unlock additional quests or reward multipliers, while new capture missions can add more ways to collect points as the network expands.

What is Vangrid?

Vangrid is a DePIN network that collects real-world spatial data for Physical AI. Contributors use smartphones and other edge devices to capture streets, buildings, and public spaces, which Vangrid processes into machine-readable 3D data for robotics and autonomous systems.

Businesses can access this verified spatial data for use cases such as autonomous navigation, robotics, infrastructure monitoring, and other systems that depend on real-world information.

The network runs on Base and uses Ethereum Attestation Service to verify captured data, with data sales and contributor payouts settled onchain.

The company is based in Amsterdam, with Robert Brighton as co-founder and CEO. Vangrid raised $9 million through a SAFT-based token round, backed by HashKey, Borderless, Crypto.com Capital, Animoca Brands, Gate Labs, and Mapleblock Capital, as covered by The Block.
