# Infrastructure: DePIN-Native

Nova embraces a DePIN-native model (Decentralized Physical Infrastructure Network), where compute power, storage, and bandwidth are provided by a network of independent operators rather than centralized entities. This creates a trust-minimized backbone for executing agents globally.

* **Compute Decentralization**: Anyone can deploy a Nova Node, provide compute resources, and earn $NOVA rewards.
* **Agent Hosting System**: Agents are dynamically scheduled across nodes based on resource tags, geographic latency, and historical performance.
* **Resource Tokenization**: Infrastructure elements like CPU cycles, storage slots, and bandwidth are staked and allocated using programmable $NOVA smart contracts.

This architecture ensures scalability, censorship resistance, and economic inclusivity.
