Polygon Labs has partnered with sustainable infrastructure startup Pyse to bring electric delivery motorcycles onto the blockchain in Dubai. The collaboration leverages Polygon’s Ethereum Layer-2 scaling solution to track asset ownership and collect real-time data, with plans to expand into India’s growing electric vehicle market next.
The initiative combines revenue-generating electric vehicles with data monetization capabilities, creating a dual-benefit model for investors. “One of the biggest focus[es] for Polygon is real-world assets,” explained Aishwary Gupta, Polygon’s Global Head of Payments and Liquidity. “And we want to ensure that anything which can be tokenized makes its way to Polygon.”
Environmental Data Collection Goes On-Chain
Each motorcycle in the program is fitted with Pyse’s proprietary DePIN Mining Machine (DMM), effectively transforming delivery vehicles into mobile data collection nodes. These devices monitor and record urban environmental metrics including air quality, road conditions, and noise pollution, then transfer this information to the blockchain.
Harshit Garg, Pyse’s co-founder, described the project as “a combination of two worlds: real yield through green assets and the speculative upside from decentralized data.” The system rewards contributors through token incentives verified by partner protocols, allowing participants to earn from both the physical asset and its data output.
The collected information is already being provided to insurance companies, vehicle manufacturers, and logistics providers in exchange for their native tokens. “Value distribution changes based on the quality of data, usage of the vehicles, etc.,” Garg noted.
Expanding From Dubai to India’s EV Market
While Dubai serves as the initial testing ground, both companies have their sights set on India, where the electric mobility sector is growing at 18% annually. “India’s B2B EV and last-mile logistics market is fragmented and underfunded,” said Garg, suggesting that blockchain-backed financing models could help operators access funding beyond traditional institutions.
The expansion plan will begin with last-mile logistics fleets in India before extending into ride-hailing and mid-mile delivery services. “The Indian market is ripe for the DePIN segment,” Garg explained, highlighting the potential for growth across multiple transportation categories.
Despite India’s currently ambiguous crypto regulations, Gupta emphasized Polygon’s infrastructural role in the project. “Polygon is just a blockchain platform where the tokenizing is happening,” he said. “Pyse would be working to ensure compliance.”
Gupta believes projects like this could serve as a gateway for broader blockchain adoption in India, particularly in non-financial sectors, once the country’s regulatory framework matures.
