Zurich: Unleash your Gateway

Be the first in Europe to join The People's Network with your LoRaWAN Gateway

We're inviting the city of Zurich to be the first to test the Helium MinerPro (Alpha) with any existing LoRaWAN gateway. With the Helium MinerPro (Alpha), you can be the first in Europe to join The People's Network and mine a new cryptocurrency, Helium (HNT), for providing coverage and transmitting device data.

Different Ways to Earn

Mine a new cryptocurrency, Helium (HNT), by sending encrypted device data and validating network coverage.

Why Convert Your Gateway?

Join a Network that Gives Back

Mine a new cryptocurrency powered by the Helium Blockchain with your existing LoRaWAN gateway

No Additional Hardware or Software Needed

Made possible by the Helium MinerPro, free to qualified gateway operators

Devices Reconnect Automatically

Effortlessly convert your existing gateway and devices. Start mining with no overhead.

Simply Change One File

With a change in one file, the gateway joins the network

How to Convert Your Gateway

Once we can confirm the location and validity of your current gateway, Helium will provision your device to join The People’s Network

All you have to do is to update the IP address and port number of your current gateway.

What Will Change?

  • You will start earning HNT!
  • A gateway that is converted to support the LoRaWAN Helium mining will no longer be part of its former network.
  • If you have IoT devices deployed on that network, you can move your device credentials to the Helium Console. No physical access to devices necessary. The Helium network supports LoRaWAN 1.0.2 and adds Helium mining capability.
