Show HN: Krowdovi – Video-based indoor navigation on a DePIN creator economy

Krowdovi showed off a wild idea: first‑person “walk with me” videos to guide you through hospitals, airports, and malls, powered by a creator economy and a crypto token that users burn to unlock navigation. The crowd loved the clever touches—motion‑controlled playback that pauses when you stop, AI‑translated overlays, and a drag‑and‑drop editor—but then the comments lit up like a baggage carousel. One camp shouted “innovation!” with 31337Logic dropping a heart‑emoji level “great work.” Another camp asked the obvious: m00dy wondered, “after I scan a QR code… how does it know where I’m going?” Meanwhile, utopiah pulled the DIY fire alarm: skip the token stuff, just use PeerTube, print a QR, and call it a day. The biggest blowback? Accessibility. usefulposter painted a hospital panic scene: scan a code, get a Cloudflare video… then hit a crypto paywall. That clash—“help people find their way” vs “make creators money”—became the day’s drama. Krowdovi leans on “DePIN” (a fancy way to say crypto for real‑world infrastructure) with burn‑and‑mint tokenomics (75% burned, 25% pays creators), plus reputation tiers for earnings. But the meme energy came from people imagining treadmill‑hacking the motion control and roasting the idea of burning tokens while burning patience in a maze of corridors.
