Machine Economy Report | Q3 2025
Robots are here. That’s the gist of this quarter. And “world’s first” — that was another big theme in Q3. World’s first tokenized robo-farm unveiled on peaq. World’s first Web3 Robotics SDK launched to make robots Machine Economy-ready. World’s first VR-controlled robo-fight sponsored by Auki and Robo Rumble – the world’s first robo-fight prediction market on peaq. Has a nice ring to it, right?
And that’s just a few of the many exciting developments from the peaqosystem in Q3 2025 — peaq also flexed a throughput of 49,000 TPS (transactions per second) without compromising on decentralization, hit an all-time high for human-held wallets, and much more.
Let’s break it down.
Everything Onchain

A Peek at peaq
World’s First Tokenized Robo-farm Announced
peaq unveiled the first-ever tokenized vertical robo-farm on main stage at Korea Blockchain Week 2025. The Hong Kong farm — built by KanayaAI, tokenized by DualMint, and deployed on peaq — will bring real-world farm cashflows onchain by distributing yields to token holders from operating profits (estimated ~20% APY).
You can sign up to the waitlist now on peaq App and DualMint to get 24-hour early access to the upcoming crowdsale.
peaq’s Robotics SDK: First Robot Onchain
In a world’s first, peaq launched its Robotics SDK, empowering builders to make robots Machine Economy-ready, fast. The first-ever Web3 x Robotics SDK lets robots receive their self-sovereign IDs, pay and get paid, verify their data, and otherwise take part in this peer-to-peer network-economy. The first humanoid robot has already received its peaq ID, with millions more to come.

Cybertruck, humanoids, and a whole robo-cafe — peaq showcased the future of autonomous onchain robotics at Korea Blockchain Week 2025. Check out the video for a taste of the Machine Economy on display at the peaq booth.
Elastic Scaling — 49,000+ TPS and 500ms Block Time
peaq demonstrated its elastic architecture on its testnet, combining parallelized block production with an asynchronous finalization to reach 49,000+ transactions per second and a block finalization time of ~500 milliseconds. Check out the demo here.

DePIN Grant Program Updates
The peaq DePIN Grant Program continues to accelerate real-world adoption across a wide range of industries, with several projects hitting development milestones this quarter.
- CPIN has completed its second and third milestones, bringing it closer to enabling people to generate valuable energy data from renewable energy sources and smart devices. For the milestones, CPIN enabled solar panels to sign collected data with peaq IDs, integrated $PEAQ as a payment method, and more.
- AquaSave completed the first milestone on its path to help users save on water bills and earn from water data. In the milestone, AquaSave built a decentralized ID system for its users and integrated that system with its app.

New apps building on peaq
The Machine Economy keeps growing — with more DePINs plugging into peaq every month. This quarter, 4 new projects joined the peaqosystem:
Auki
Auki is building a machine perception network that enables robots and AI to understand and interact with the physical world.
DualMint
DualMint is tokenizing boring, everyday businesses serving local communities — such as laundromats, ATM networks & A/C Units — allowing anyone to invest in them and earn yield based on real-world supply and demand.
Newcoin
Newcoin flips the traditional AI training model on its head: instead of applying more compute to make a single model better, it applies multi-agent reinforcement learning (MARL), active inference, and cybernetics to make AI smarter. This is the future of AI — and it’s being built on peaq.
peaq co-founder Leonard Dorlöchter had a livestream chat with Sofiance, founder of Newcoin to discuss the future of AI. Watch the video here.
Robo Rumble
Robo Rumble is the world’s first robo-fight prediction market. Coming out of stealth with a sponsorship of the REK0 VR-controlled robot fight by REK.tv, where Twitched co-founder Justin Kan faced off with UFC fighter Hyder Amil, it will enable anyone to bet on the sports of the future.
Each of these DePINs is expanding the reach of the Machine Economy, transforming real-world infrastructure into onchain value generators.
