Helium hnt

Helium is a decentralized, open wireless network designed to power wireless IOT devices with wireless connectivity. In an effort to build a global wireless network, individuals are incentivized to host Hotspots - Nodes that simultaneously mine HNT for building and securing the Network while providing connectivity to nearby devices. Hotspot operators earn HNT for providing coverage and transferring data on the Network

Helium was started in 2013 by three co-founders, Amir Haleem, Shawn Fanning, and Sean Carey. Helium’s team members have experience in “radio and hardware, manufacturing, distributed systems, peer-to-peer and blockchain technologies.”

The main reasons to invest in Helium include: - The Helium Network could be a way for you to mine cryptocurrency (HNT) without running an expensive and power-hungry server. - It promises to be scalable and affordable, bringing wireless connectivity to millions of devices, sensors, MCUs, and chipsets for just pennies a year. - After less than two years in operation, the Helium network and blockchain already have over 25,000 global Hotspots, making it the largest LoRaWAN(point-to-multipoint networking protocol) network globally
