The Internet Computer Protocol (ICP) is indeed associated with the DePIN (Decentralized Physical Infrastructure Networks) category. DePIN refers to blockchain projects that connect decentralized networks with physical infrastructure in the real world, enabling the creation of decentralized services that interact with physical assets or infrastructure.
ICP is designed to create a decentralized web where smart contracts can run at web speed, serve web directly to users, and scale to support any amount of computation and data. While ICP itself is not purely a DePIN project, it can be used as the foundation for DePIN-related applications. These applications can leverage ICP's decentralized infrastructure to manage, control, or interact with physical devices or services in a decentralized manner.
In summary, ICP provides the infrastructure that can support DePIN projects, even if it isn't solely categorized as DePIN. On Coingecko.com ICP token is indeed inserted in DePIN category, also KuKoin article mentions it as a top DePIN token/chain, see article: https://www.kucoin.com/learn/crypto/top-depin-crypto-projects
