## Description

Explore the future of real-time communication with Ayush Ranjan, Founder of Huddle01, as he introduces a revolutionary DePIN (Decentralized Physical Infrastructure Network) approach to WebRTC. Recorded live at Pragma New York 2023, this workshop dives into how Huddle01 is creating a people-powered network to rival centralized services like Zoom and Google Meet.

Ayush walks us through the architecture, token incentives, and node infrastructure powering this decentralized audio/video platform—plus a live demo on running a Huddle node yourself. If you're interested in DePIN, privacy, decentralized video conferencing, or building with WebRTC in a crypto-native way, this is a must-watch.
