Grass Network: Earn Passive Income by Sharing Your Bandwidth

19 April 2026 · 2 min read

Grass Network is one of the most established DePIN bandwidth projects, with a live token trading on major exchanges and a growing user base worldwide.

How Grass works

Grass pays you GRASS tokens for sharing your unused internet bandwidth. Web companies — data aggregators, AI researchers, and market intelligence firms — rent bandwidth through the network. Your node provides that bandwidth and earns tokens in return.

What you need

To run a Grass node yourself, you need a VPS with at least 1GB RAM running Ubuntu 22.04, a dedicated IPv4 address, Docker installed, and your Grass account credentials. The node runs as a Docker container with a single command.

Earnings potential

A single Grass node on a $6–8/month VPS averages $15–$40/month in GRASS tokens depending on your IP location and network demand. US and European IPs typically earn more.

The easier route

If you do not want to manage a server, our DFY Starter plan includes a fully managed Grass node for $25/month (first month from $15). We deploy, monitor, and maintain everything. You just collect earnings.

Withdrawing earnings

Connect a Solana wallet (Phantom or Solflare) to your Grass dashboard and claim tokens when they accumulate. Convert GRASS to USDT on Bybit, OKX or Bitget.
