People use IoT devices everyday. Some of the most commonly used IoT devices are smart watches, gaming consoles, smart TVs, voice control devices like Google Home and the Amazon Echo, Ring doorbells, smart door locks and pet GPS tracking collars. Business Insider Intelligence forecasts that there will be more than 64 billion IoT devices installed around the world by 2026.

The People’s Network is the world’s fastest growing wireless network made possible through sophisticated, open-source technologies that aim to create a truly decentralized model for building wireless infrastructure.
Helium Hotspots
LongFi vs. Wi-Fi
Helium - "The People's Network"
Helium hotspots look like small routers that are easily installed by plugging in the power cord, connecting to your home Wi-Fi and syncing to the blockchain. The hotspots create a wireless infrastructure for the "Internet of Things" (IoT).

LongFi vs. Wi-Fi
The hotspots use a small amount of Wi-Fi and power to project a long-range radio frequency (LongFi). LongFi reaches 200 times further than normal Wi-Fi, creating a more seamless, trusted network for the Internet of Things devices to communicate between.

As a thank you, hotspots participating in network coverage are paid HNT tokens (Helium cryptocurrency). If you host a hotspot, Hiten Mining will share the HNT earnings.

HNT is a decentralized cryptocurrency that is earned by hotspots. HNT is stored in a cryptocurrency wallet. You can let your HNT grow in value over time, convert it into another cryptocurrency or sell it for good old fashioned US dollars.
