The following article is a guest post and opinion of Ting Peng, Head of Ecosystem at SkyX Network.

What do you do when the weather app says light rain, but a flash flood tears through your town instead? You blame the app. Your rightful ire is a bit misplaced, though: It could very much be the data, or rather the lack thereof. In May 2023, deadly floods tore through parts of Rwanda and the Democratic Republic of Congo, killing hundreds of people. Most had no idea the water was coming. Not because no one cared, but because the systems meant to warn the local communities simply didn’t have enough data to sound the alarm in time.

This wasn’t just a tragedy, it was a wake-up call. If we want to build real climate resilience in the 21st century, we have to start by rethinking how we gather weather data. The good news? We already have the tools. The combination of Decentralized Physical Infrastructure Networks (DePIN) and artificial intelligence may be the best way we can keep up with a climate that no longer plays by the rules.

Too Far, Too Late: Why Weather Warnings Miss the Mark

Most people don’t realize how patchy our current weather infrastructure really is. In many parts of the world, forecasts are based on data from just a few official weather stations which are often miles away from the people they’re supposed to protect. That’s fine if you live near a station. But what if you don’t?

What made the 2023 Lake Kivu floods so deadly wasn’t just the water, but also the total lack of early warning. Rwanda had at least some meteorological data. Across the border in eastern DRC, there was virtually none. No local sensors. No alert systems. Just thousands of people living in flood-prone areas with no idea they were in danger.

This isn’t rare. Around the world, hundreds of millions of people live in what could be called “data deserts” — places where weather patterns go unmonitored, unreported, and unpredicted. According to the World Meteorological Organisation (WMO), 60% of the African population is not covered by any early warning systems. As climate change supercharges storms, droughts, and floods, those deserts are becoming death traps.

AI Can’t Stop the Rain — But It Can Help You See It Coming

So how do we tackle this? What if instead of relying on a handful of government-run weather stations, we tapped into thousands of small, distributed weather sensors? That’s what DePIN enables: Community-powered networks where individuals contribute to physical infrastructure, and are incentivized to do so.

When paired with AI, the potential becomes staggering. The United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC)’s technical paper on AI for climate action points out that AI can aggregate and analyze real-time data from decentralized sources, identify hyperlocal patterns, detect anomalies like sudden temperature drops or unexpected rainfall, and help issue alerts that are actually relevant to people where they are. 

It’s the combination of scale and intelligence that makes this model so powerful. Centralized systems will always be limited. But decentralized networks can grow organically wherever people are willing to plug in.

Don’t Replace the System. Upgrade It.

Skeptics might argue that decentralized data and the use of AI is messy or unreliable. That it needs strict oversight. But AI can actually excel at filtering out bad data, spotting inconsistencies, and learning from patterns across thousands of sources. This isn’t about replacing national meteorological agencies — it’s about helping them. 

A weather agency can only install so many stations. But tap into a decentralized network, and suddenly their coverage multiplies. Their forecasts improve. Their warnings get sharper. Everyone wins. Climate disasters are becoming more frequent and more intense. The people most affected are often the least connected. If we keep relying on centralized systems alone, more lives will be lost.

We Can’t Control the Climate — But We Can Control What Happens Next

When people die not because of a storm, but because they didn’t know it was coming, we’ve failed as a global community. That failure isn’t inevitable. Climate extremes are hitting the world’s most vulnerable people the hardest. And the cruel irony is that in many of these places, sufficient weather warnings could have been issued… We just haven’t bothered to rethink the current model.

We already have the tools to change the outcome. But tools don’t work unless we use them. We just need to decide: Do we want weather systems that serve everyone, or only the few within range of the radar?

Ray Dalio is a legend in the investing world. He founded Bridgewater Associates in 1975, one of the largest traditional hedge funds, managing close to $172 billion in assets. As one might expect, Dalio has done quite well and now has an estimated net worth of $14 billion, according to Forbes magazine.

Over the years, he has also developed what he calls an “All Weather” strategy that he believes can steer steer investors through the darkest of storms. Dalio recently teamed up with State Street to bring this strategy to the masses through the SPDR Bridgewater All Weather ETF (ALLW -2.84%).

With the market getting hammered as of late, is this the right place to put your money to weather the storm?

Dalio’s All Weather strategy

Dalio and his team developed the All Weather strategy after over 25 years of studying history, markets, and working with clients. Some of the key events that led Dalio and his team to form this strategy were President Richard Nixon’s decision to break away from the Bretton Woods system that linked the U.S. dollar to gold, and working with McDonald’s to help the fast food giant hedge its exposure to chicken prices.

Initially, Dalio created the strategy for his family’s trust and did not envision it becoming a wide-scale investment product. But the ultimate goal was to develop a strategy that will be able to stand the test of time long after Dalio is gone. The All Weather fund brings together investment approaches from four different strategies, all of which can do well in a certain environment.

One of these approaches might thrive when inflation rises, while the other does well when inflation falls. One might do well when growth rises, while the other does well when growth misses expectations. While the strategy has some variations, it might typically look like this:

  • 30% equities, typically by holding the broader benchmark S&P 500
  • 40% U.S. Treasury bonds with maturities of 20 years or more
  • 15% U.S. Treasury bonds with maturities of seven to 10 years
  • 7.5% gold
  • 7.5% commodities

What’s in the All Weather ETF and how has the strategy performed?

The Bridgewater ETF is actively managed, which means it can change a good deal more than a passively managed one and also has higher associated fees. As of April 3, 37% of the fund was invested in a U.S. government money market fund, while 13% of the fund was invested in an S&P 500 ETF. Another 5% of the fund was in Treasury bills, while 4% was invested in an emerging markets ETF. The fund also has exposure to a number of different currencies and some Gold futures.

Because the fund is actively managed and stocks have been getting crushed, the fund may have adapted to prepare for more of a risk-off environment, but a lot of the pieces in the All Weather strategy are still present.

There are varying assessments of how the strategy has performed long term, but by and large the strategy seems to perform well when stocks do not. Data from OfDollarsandData blog, which is run by Nick Maggiulli, chief operating officer of Ritholtz Wealth Management, showed that the All Weather strategy outperformed in the 1970s, a decade filled with stagflation, and in the first decade of the 2000s, which included both the dot-com bubble and the Great Recession.

Over the last five years, Fortune magazine reported that investors have been frustrated with the strategy’s performance, which makes sense considering what a strong run it had been for stocks. Essentially, this indicates that the All Weather strategy works best in times of duress. Given the uncertainty surrounding Trump’s tariffs and their broader impact, the All Weather strategy could certainly be set to outperform.

However, I think it’s really all about one’s investing horizon. If you’re closer to retirement and want to preserve the value of your funds, then the All Weather strategy could be the right pick. However, if you have a longer investing horizon and can afford to stomach some of the near-term volatility that is likely to continue, then you may not want such a conservative strategy.

A new artificial intelligence (AI) based tool called Aardvark Weather is offering a different way to predict weather across the globe.

Built through a joint effort by researchers from the UK and Canada, the system avoids traditional weather models that rely on heavy computing and mathematical simulations. Instead, it uses a type of machine learning to quickly create weather forecasts.

The project involved teams from the University of Cambridge, the Vector Institute at the University of Toronto, and the Alan Turing Institute. Their findings were published in the journal Nature.

Unlike older systems that use equations to simulate the atmosphere, Aardvark Weather works by learning from large sets of data. It can generate detailed forecasts for wind, humidity, temperature, and air pressure on a global scale.

It also provides local-level reports, such as ground-level temperatures and wind speeds. The system handles this using three main parts: an encoder to read the data, a processor to analyze it, and a decoder to turn it into forecast information.

Using four NVIDIA A100 GPUs, Aardvark can complete a full global forecast in about one second. This faster process allows for more frequent updates and easier fine-tuning.

Aardvark Weather could also help places that cannot afford expensive weather systems because it requires less computing power.

This time of year — in the northern hemisphere, at least — people start spending more time inside as temperatures drop and school starts.

So it’s no surprise that the total number of active users on the public OpenSim grids is going up.

According to their published stats report, there were 44,129 actives this up, up by 1,128 from this time a month ago.

However, the total land area went down, by the equivalent of 738 standard regions. All of that drop — and then some — is accounted for by the fact that a single grid, CandM World, didn’t report its stats this month. Last month, it had over 1,800 regions. Today, the website just shows a security error message, so it could just be a configuration error.

We are now tracking a total of 2,675 public grids, of which 311 are active and 244 published their statistics this month. If you have a stats page that we’re not tracking, please email me at maria@hypergridbusiness.com — that way, your grid will be mentioned in this report every month, for additional visibility with both search engines and users.

This month, OSgrid was the largest grid by land area, with 34,103 standard region equivalents, while Wolf Territories Grid was the most active, with 6,950 unique logins over the past 30 days.

Our stats do not include most of the grids running on DreamGrid, a free easy-to-use version OpenSim, since these tend to be private grids.

OpenSim is a free, open-source, virtual world platform, that’s similar to Second Life and allows people with no technical skills to quickly and cheaply create virtual worlds and teleport to other virtual worlds. Those with technical skills can run OpenSim worlds on their servers for free using either DreamGrid, the official OpenSim installer for those who are more technically inclined, or any other distribution, while commercial hosting starts at less than $5 a region.

The weather’s been getting cooler here in the US where I live — some days, at least. The weather’s been a little wonky lately. And there have been other things happening in the country that make me want to spend less time in the real world and more time in a virtual one. So it makes sense that registered users and land area both went up in the public OpenSim grids.

What’s more surprising is that the total active numbers went down — by more than 2,700 users.

Sure, Moonrose, which reported over 900 active users last month, seems to be having website issues and did not publish its stats this month. In addition, Vida Dupla, which had 375 actives last month, did not report its active user numbers this month. And Great Canadian Grid, which had over 600 actives last month, is now closed.

But several grids also reported significant drops in active user numbers. OSgrid reported a drop of more than 800 actives compared to last month, Craft World saw a drop of over 200, and five grids lost more than 100 actives each.

So there’s something going on beyond just a grid closure and some reporting issues.

Maybe everyone went out partying for Halloween and spent less time in-world? Or maybe other people like the cooler weather and are enjoying the fall leaves and brisk walks while wearing cozy sweaters?

Nope! According to reader Paul Clevett, from Wolf Territories, OSgrid is down for maintenance. And I found the announcement. Thanks, Paul, for the heads up!

Apparently, OSgrid is currently offline, and has been since November 7, because it’s storage cluster was running out of space.

“OSgrid has 17 years of data which is approx several hundred million assets,” the announcement said. And it gets worse. The grid stores both the asset data and a redundant copy, but they’re not stored at the actual size — every asset looks bigger than it actually is.

To fix the problem, the grid’s storage needs to reconfigured, which involves moving millions of assets and scrubbing out the phantom extra space to free it up again. Doing this while people are using the grid would create a bad user experience, so they put it into maintenance mode during the bulk of the work.

The bad news is that they don’t know how long it’s going to take. The good news is that they don’t expect any assets to get lost.

Anyway, I am now tracking a total of 2,677 public grids, of which 295 were active this month and 232 published their statistics. If you have a stats page that we’re not tracking, please email me at maria@hypergridbusiness.com — that way, your grid will be mentioned in this report every month, for additional visibility with both search engines and users.
