Berlin, March 13, 2025 — Staex GmbH, a Berlin-based company building decentralized infrastructure that generates trusted real-world machine data for AI systems, today announced a strategic partnership with DFV, a community-driven Web3 project on the Ethereum Mainnet focused on advancing real-world decentralized infrastructure.
A Community-Driven Web3 Initiative
DFV is a next-generation community and DAO initiative built around principles of transparency, fairness, and community governance. Unlike traditional investors, DFV operates as a decentralized community that supports projects focused on real-world utility for decentralized technologies — from infrastructure networks and public mobility to open digital ecosystems.
The collaboration reflects a strong alignment between DFV’s vision for community-driven infrastructure and Staex’s work developing decentralized machine networks capable of generating trusted, verifiable data from real-world systems.
Strategic Partnership Supporting Trusted Data for AI Systems
As AI systems increasingly move beyond purely digital environments and begin interacting with physical infrastructure, they require reliable streams of machine-generated data. Staex’s decentralized networking technology enables machines, sensors, and infrastructure systems to exchange and verify data across decentralized physical infrastructure networks securely.
Staex’s decentralized public transport network, MINT, demonstrates this model in practice, creating city-scale systems in which connected vehicles and infrastructure continuously generate secure, verifiable operational data.
Voices from the Staex and DFV Community
“Staex represents exactly the kind of real-world infrastructure our community wants to support,” said the DFV community. “We believe decentralized technologies should not stop at digital assets but should help reshape how real-world systems operate with AI.”
“We are excited to welcome DFV as a contributor to the Staex ecosystem,” said Dr. Alexandra Mikityuk, CEO and Co-Founder of Staex. “Their support reflects a shared belief that decentralized infrastructure and trusted machine data will play a critical role in the next generation of AI-powered systems.”
DFV’s contribution was made to support the continued development of the Staex Network and related technical infrastructure. Staex plans to use the funding to advance development of its core technologies, including the DePIN network and the continued rollout of MINT — its decentralized public transport network.
About DFV
DFV - is a community-driven Web3 project and decentralized autonomous organization (DAO) launched on the Ethereum Mainnet. Built on a foundation of 100 ethical principles inspired by the ideals of fairness, transparency, and community empowerment, DFV represents a new model of decentralized capital and governance. With a mission to drive real-world utility for decentralized technologies — from city infrastructure and mobility to on-chain governance — DFV is building toward a future where communities, not corporations, shape the infrastructure of everyday life.
