dVIN Labs Network Introduction
Unifying the $1T wine asset class through data, DePIN and RWA tokenization.
dVIN is building the universal protocol for luxury and investment-grade wine on the blockchain. The dVIN Protocol is the base layer for connecting the wine industry from grape to glass.
For winemakers we are solving for the lack of consumer and consumption data, supply chain inefficiency, and customer acquisition.
For wine lovers and collectors we are solving the problems of counterfeit and fraud, lack of price transparency, chain of custody and provenance.
Later this year we are launching $VIN, the first native token for the wine industry, which will reward wine lovers, allow winemakers to receive real-time consumption data, and power a DePIN network to track and verify luxury wine on-chain.
The dVIN team has decades of experience and deep relationships in the luxury wine market with winemakers and collectors alike, and will bring these communities to the Solana blockchain.
GUM, Jupiter & dVIN Labs
Founded in 2021, dVIN Labs is poised to revolutionize the trillion dollar wine asset class by tokenizing luxury wine and bringing it to the Solana blockchain. With the help of Jupiter and GUM, the Real World Asset (RWA) market will expand the opportunity for luxury, rare and investment-grade wine that spans the globe.
Building on Solana, dVIN takes advantage of fast transactions on SOL, high scalability, and low fees - all of which are completely novel in the investment-grade wine industry, where transactions are normally managed by auction houses or other third parties that take huge fees and provide limited transparency.
Working with Jupiter and GUM, we aim to consolidate the $1T wine asset class with a variety of other alternative asset classes, including real-world assets, into a single, efficient market.
The experience provided by dVIN Labs will enable winemakers to connect directly with their consumers like never before, accessing more complete data and allowing for a more efficient supply chain. Consumers will be rewarded for their engagement; while enjoying the trust and transparency that tokenization has to offer.
The dVIN ecosystem fosters trading with deep liquidity for otherwise illiquid rare bottles of the best wine vintages on the open market. Rare and collectible wine is an untapped segment of the Alternative Assets Class (ACC), and the dVIN protocol is positioned to unify the $250B investment-grade wine asset class.
dVIN is backed by several well known partners in the cryptocurrency space and is looking to expand its partnerships to those rooted in the Solana and Jupiter ecosystems. We believe this expansion will allow for user growth and recognition of the incredible ecosystem offerings that have been built by our team of developers already and the features that are coming down the line.
Our key technical partners are:
Protokol is a specialist web3 partner, experts in Blockchain, DPP, NFTs, DeFi and more – sitting at the forefront of the industry.
Amazon Managed Blockchain is a group within AWS focused on blockchain solutions. dVIN is a preferred partner, and was profiled as a leading case study on stage at the London Blockchain Conference in May 2024.

Vision
dVIN Labs is poised to revolutionize the connection between winemakers and wine lovers by implementing a unique incentive system. By rewarding consumers with $VIN for their wine-related activities, including sharing consumption data and aiding in customer acquisition, this initiative aims to supercharge the engagement of wine enthusiasts.
Wine lovers earn $VIN by providing valuable feedback on their wine consumption experiences, such as when and where they consume individual wines. This data is crucial for winemakers to understand market trends and consumer preferences, enabling them to optimize their offerings and to distribute more effectively.
Additionally, consumers are incentivized to share personal data, facilitating direct communication channels between winemakers and consumers. This direct interaction not only benefits winemakers in understanding their market but also fosters a more personalized relationship between wine enthusiasts and brands.
