Helium Network
Helium is a decentralized wireless network whose IoT and 5G coverage is built and owned by people running Hotspots and earning HNT.

What is Helium Network?
Helium replaces traditional cell towers with community-run Hotspots that provide LoRaWAN coverage for IoT sensors and CBRS-based cellular service for phones. Users buy or host Hotspots, earn HNT for verified coverage, and can connect to the network through Helium Mobile's MVNO service. Helium runs on Solana and uses Data Credits to keep transfer costs predictable in USD.
