HIP 129 Passed: MOBILE Carrier Beta ✅ HIP 129 has been approved by the community! With the passage of HIP 129, all MOBILE Hotspots will be automatically eligible to participate in the carrier offloading beta. Helium Mobile, as the manufacturer of the Hotspots has turned this on for all Hotspots as of 8/15/24. Inclusion in any carrier's beta is at the discretion of the carrier. You can see whether a carrier has selected your Hotspot to participate in a beta in the Helium Mobile Hotspot Dashboard, with an option to opt out at any time. This change simplifies operations by eliminating the need for manual configuration. 🗳️ 🔗 More information can be found here: https://lnkd.in/dUuW-KZ7 Read the full HIP: https://lnkd.in/dTCMwjWw

“There are no real use cases for crypto.” — said everyone, ever 🤦♂️ False. These 3 apps will displace AT&T, Uber & Google Maps in 5 yrs: First, imagine a world where: 📲 An unlimited 5G phone plan is $20/month and PAYS YOU for your data. 🚗 Ridesharing apps that charge you 30% less and pay drivers 30% more. 🗺 Mapping data that is so fresh and accurate you never get lost again. And most importantly: You can own a percentage of the business 💰 They're not only possible, THEY EXIST TODAY on Solana 🤯 Helium is a cellular network owned by the people. To date the network has over 1 million hotspots and Helium Mobile has over 100,000 users in the US 🇺🇸 Hivemapper is a mapping company owned by drivers. They've already mapped 25% of the global road network — that's 15 million kilometers 🌎 Teleport is a ridesharing app that is owned by riders and drivers. It's live in 4 states, has 4,000 riders, and has 800 drivers since launching in May 🏎 DePIN — Decentralized Physical Infrastructure Networks — is an exciting new class of blockchain applications that have REAL use cases. Keep your eyes on these companies 👆 They will be household names in no time. Here's my opinion 👇 DePIN and community-owned networks will disrupt massive, centralized companies like Verizon, Google, and Uber in the next 3-5 years. Why? Crypto is incredibly powerful at capital formation and social coordination. It can bring to market a cheaper, higher-quality product compared to today's public and private companies especially in sectors with high startup costs. Next time people say that crypto has no use cases beyond speculation, show them these real-world use cases to change their mind.

HIP 128: ENERGY Subnetwork⚡🔥🎈 Vote now on HIP 128! A proposal that establishes the ENERGY Subnetwork within the Helium ecosystem. This proposal outlines an economic framework to integrate decentralized energy resources, such as solar power production and battery storage, as a subnetwork, giving the community access to participate in the energy market. It’s important to note that if HIP 128 passes, it will set the foundation for the economic structure of the ENERGY Subnetwork. However, this does not mean the ENERGY token will be immediately available as an incentive. Ownership of a compatible distributed energy resource will be required to participate directly in the network. As this proposal sets the economic framework, ENERGY would require another launch vote similar to HIP 77. ENERGY aims to increase the addressable market of the overall Network, offer new utility for Hotspots, and increase token utility. 🗳️ Vote for this proposal if you support the economic framework, or vote against if you believe further changes are needed. Lock your HNT tokens and take part in deciding the future of the Helium Network. 🔒 VOTE NOW: ⏳The vote remains open for the next 7 days: https://lnkd.in/dv8KGpxx Srcful, Helium

HIP 129: MOBILE Carrier Beta This Helium Improvement Proposal (HIP) formally introduces 'Beta Carrier'. It proposes that all MOBILE Wi-Fi Hotspots be automatically opted-in, by default, to service Beta Carrier subscribers, with an option for operators to opt-out at any time. Currently, Hotspot firmware must be configured in such a way that the operator has to deliberately enable the handling of unrewarded traffic, which might involve additional steps or settings. If this proposal passes, it will eliminate this requirement, allowing Hotspots to handle all types of traffic without needing operators to take extra actions to enable it. 🗳️Vote for this proposal if you support this change or against it if you do not. Lock your MOBILE now and participate in Helium Network governance. 🔒 VOTE NOW: ⏳The vote stays open for 7 days: https://lnkd.in/dEYwn7zt
