Helium Technology

Helium's Technology allows anyone to build out massive, cost-effective wireless infrastructures in an entirely new business model that benefits everyone.


The Helium vision is the most ambitious we have seen in the blockchain space since the advent of smart contracts on Ethereum. Helium represents a fundamentally new approach—one with a radically reduced cost structure—to deploying and managing wireless networks at scale.

Private & Secure

Total encryption from Device to Cloud

Reliable & Scalable

Helium, powered by the Solana blockchain, makes scaling secure & easy

Open Source

Helium is committed to open collaboration

Blockchain

Helium, powered by the Solana blockchain, is built to incentivize the creation of decentralized, public wireless networks.

It's based on a novel work algorithm called Proof-of-Coverage, and rewards miners in Helium tokens for delivering high-quality network coverage.

LoRaWAN

Helium combines blockchain technology with the LoRaWAN wireless protocol so any LoRaWAN device can transfer data on the Helium Network.

Helium's LoRaWAN network supports micropayment transactions so customers can pay based on network usage without needing to deploy network infrastructure.

DEVICE ROAMING

Devices can relay through every Hotspot

MICROPAYMENTS

Devices pay for access with Data Credits

LORAWAN SUPPORT

Any LoRaWAN device is compatible with The People's Network
