BYE BYE GPU MINING
Mining HNT with Hotspots is done via radio technology, not expensive or wasteful GPUs.
Build Networks
Hotspots work together to form a new global wireless network and undertake ‘Proof-of-Coverage’.
Choose your Hardware
Hotspots are built by a variety of vendors to suit your needs.

Massive, Decentralized Connectivity
Hundreds of companies and thousands of developers are already building on The People’s Network, the world’s largest, and fastest growing LoRaWAN network.
Thousands of existing solutions, sensors, devices and gateways can be easily configured to run LongFi - a powerful blend of LoRaWAN and blockchain technologies.
Use the NetworkBuild with Helium ConsoleAN OPEN ALTERNATIVE
The People's Network is built on Open Source technology and governed by an open alliance.
SCALABLE & AFFORDABLE
Say goodbye to expensive cell contracts. On Helium a sensor can cost cents to run a year.
LORAWAN-COMPATIBLE
Utilize thousands of existing sensors, chipsets and MCUs for streamlined development.
Get Started on Helium Console Today
After many months of work and testing based on community feedback, the team is excited to announce updates to Console! The team not only worked on new features and capabilities, but also focused on making sure migration to the updated Console would be seamless for existing users.

Helium is used by:
Core Technologies.
The People's Network is made possible through sophisticated, open-source technologies that aim to create a truly decentralized and trust-less model for building wireless infrastructure.
Tokens & Data Credits
The network uses two units of exchange: HNT, a new cryptocurrency, and Data Credits.
Proof-of-Coverage
Our novel proof-of-work algorithm enables Hotspots to be rewarded trustlessly.
Helium LongFi
LongFi combines the low-power, long-range LoRaWAN wireless protocol with the Helium Blockchain.
