Linera enables real-time coordination for decentralized infrastructure networks—powering IoT systems, energy grids, and smart city platforms. As physical networks scale, traditional blockchains can't keep up with the microtransactions, local logic, and responsiveness required to run them.

Each device or infrastructure component—such as a sensor, router, or charging station—can operate on its own microchain, processing data, verifying outputs, and settling payments without competing for blockspace. This architecture supports applications like real-time energy tracking, usage-based pricing, and automated rewards for bandwidth, compute, or power contributions.

By separating execution across microchains, Linera removes congestion risks while enabling local autonomy and global composability. DePIN builders get scalable infrastructure with built-in responsiveness, automation, and instant settlement.
