Helium (HNT) is a decentralized wireless network that enables devices to connect to the Internet of Things (IoT) through a unique peer-to-peer infrastructure. Using a combination of blockchain and radio technology, Helium’s decentralized network, known as ‘The People’s Network,’ allows users to earn HNT by deploying Hotspots that provide low-power network coverage. This model incentivizes the creation of a vast and secure wireless network for IoT applications. Helium’s network, based on the Proof of Coverage consensus mechanism, supports a variety of IoT devices and aims to transform connectivity for smart cities and decentralized applications. Users can access real-time HNT prices, historical trends, and the latest updates on our Helium Markets page, helping them stay informed about this innovative IoT network.
Helium (HNT) is a decentralized, blockchain-powered network for the Internet of Things (IoT), known as 'The People's Network,' enabling IoT devices to connect through low-power, long-range wireless coverage.
Helium uses Hotspots, which are physical devices deployed by users to provide wireless coverage for IoT devices. Users earn HNT rewards through Helium’s Proof of Coverage consensus mechanism by validating network integrity and providing coverage.
Helium’s use of blockchain and a decentralized network model for IoT connectivity, combined with its incentive system that rewards users with HNT for deploying Hotspots, distinguishes it as a novel approach to wireless infrastructure.
