DePIN without limits: scalable infrastructure, aligned incentives, and the tools operators need to grow.
The world’s data demand is growing exponentially. Infrastructure investment isn’t.
World Mobile’s decentralized network has already shown that communities can build, own, and operate telecom infrastructure faster and more efficiently than traditional models.
Every exabyte of mobile data requires 25% more infrastructure capacity. Yet telecom investment is rising by only 3% a year (PwC). The result: a trillion-dollar gap between data demand and the networks meant to power it.
The wider DePIN ecosystem is forecast to hit $3.5 trillion by 2028. But it’s fragmented, held back by small-scale networks and misaligned incentives.
The World Mobile Network Builder unites it all: We provide the tools, structure, and scale to turn decentralized physical infrastructure into a coordinated global force.

Got a question?
We’ve got the answer
World Mobile Network Builder is a partnership and management platform to provide the global community an opportunity to join the movement in reclaiming power over mobile networks in a collaborative effort to build decentralized physical infrastructure in this current era of digital connectivity as a prerequisite to conduct everyday life. The globe is partitioned into equal sized, hexagon-shaped territories that reference H3 indexes at resolution 5 scale (~252 km²), and users participate in Auctions to gain the opportunity to upstart their own operations within these territories. It is up to these Hex Operators to kick-off community-based methods of outreach, marketing for subscriber sign-up, locating hosts for AirNode deployment, and everything in between to build out a completely decentralized telecom network.
H3 is a geospatial indexing system that divides the world into hexagonal grids at multiple resolution levels. In World Mobile Network Builder, hexagons at resolution 5 represent geographic areas. Each area is simply referred to as a Hex and covers approximately 252 km². These hexes form the core spatial units as the boundary for operations involving network planning, auctions, and mapping.
Hex Operator: The entity that wins an auction to own the Hex NFT, manage a hexagonal geographic area, and claim the rewards earned from network revenue in the representative locale.
Lead Operator: These individuals have proven track record of success across their own Hex operations. They may opt to share success stories and recommended standards and practices for other Hex Operators to increase their own clout or earned rewards shared by the operators that they help or consult.
Agent: A delegate appointed by a Hex Operator to assist with ground-level operations like marketing, network buildout, finding potential hosts, and installers with the potential to earn revenue share within the Hex geographic area.
Host: Users that do not require participation in auctions and can apply to allow their physical address and location to install real-world assets and deploy AirNodes.
Affiliate: Users that do not require participation in auctions and have an existing World Mobile account where they can help sign-up more Subscribers to World Mobile's network. Affiliates can track their performance, commissions, and subscriber activity through this partnership platform.
- Auctions are held for Hex areas at resolution 5.
- A Registered User (has a connected wallet) can place bids using stablecoins: USDC and USDT, or the token WMTx, and can purchase immediately with Stripe, Credit Card checkout, and Bank transfer.
- The auction starts when the first bid is placed, triggering a countdown (usually two weeks) until expiry.
- Any User, whether they have registered with a connected wallet or not, can track auctions on an interactive map or list view.
- When the auction ends, the highest bidder receives the Hex NFT representing ownership of that hex.
- Once a User receives their Hex NFT, they must proceed with fulfilling a list of obligations such as submitting a business plan and complete KYC/KYB verification post-auction in order to continue in the platform with elevated permissions as a Hex Operator.
With a connected web3 wallet, the user may use two stablecoins: USDC and USDT. WMTx is also supported to submit bids
