a lot of people have been asking me about
@solana
and whether proposing to move
@helium
to the solana network as part of HIP70 was the right move, given everything going on
simple reply: absolutely the right move then, and still is now
Hello SolChatters!
We're excited to introduce the audio calls feature, allowing wallet-to-wallet communication using WebRTC. Your calls are peer-to-peer, connecting directly between your browser and your friend's, ensuring that your conversations are encrypted.

very very very excited about this 🔥

we spent months evaluating potential L1's and scaling solutions, and it's my opinion that
@solana
is by far the best choice for
@helium
. i'm so impressed with what

today marks a major milestone in
@helium
network history - the path to 5G. the
@helium
network launched in August 2019. as a company we had always been focused on the Internet of Things space, as it had been the most poorly served segment of the telecom space
strange to me that
@solana
is still non-consensus thinking. all you have to do is put any biases aside, use it once, and all Ethereum/L2 options then feel ridiculous
$ETH was non-consensus in 18/19, but is now consensus & anyone worth their salt as a crypto investor is there — quality asset.
But $SOL is the strongest non-consensus asset of this bear. Watch out for when it becomes a consensus long, lots of momo investors will be scramblinggg

merry Xmas to the entire
@helium
community, and all our new
@helium_mobile
members. it’s been one hell of a year launching a brand new mobile service, and new hardware 🎄
it’s going to be a great 2024. and at least one big

announcement coming in January 👀
sharing an update i sent to investors yesterday regarding
@novalabs_
and some of the work we are doing related to

reminder from earlier - neither FTX, Alameda, SBF or any affiliates are investors in

tl;dr - we're all good

that has gained some traction. there are some points here that I wanted to address

@Helium
, often cited as one of the best examples of a Web3 use case, has received $365M of investment led by
@a16z
.
Regular folks have also been convinced to spend $250M buying hotspot nodes, in hopes of earning passive income.
The result? Helium's total revenue is $6.5k/month
been quite a busy few days over here, and lots of feedback and reaction to the
@helium
HIP70 proposal. i wanted to write a little thread to give some feedback on some of the things i've heard
Protocols like
@helium
will play a pivotal role in building
#Web3
, but unfortunately they are often ignored or misunderstood by most investors
Here’s why this “picks and shovels” token has the potential to increase in value by 50x-100x
I haven’t written much about this article, but now feels like a good time. this was a truly awful hatchet job on us from the Forbes team
- when we launched
@helium
the team had around 35 hotspots to start the network
- hotspots were delivered to the public in Austin 48 hours…
we didn't propose
@solana
because of its token price, not much to address there. as long as the network keeps running that is all the
@helium
community should care about

maybe there’s something to the idea of needing decentralized network infrastructure after all. all 3 carriers have had massive outages in the last 24hrs

🚨Big News For $MOBILE burn🚨
HIP-96 will trigger $10 of burn for every indoor hotspot and $20 of burn for every outdoor hotspot onboarded.
This is set to go live on January 8th.
not a bad way to start 2024 as
@helium_mobile
subscribers are still using more of their data on
@helium
than they are on T-Mobile
I expect this to change as the holidays end and people get back to their normal daily routines, but it's been amazing to watch 🔥

This week, we'll continue expanding the network, working with businesses in key areas along the base of the mountains surrounding Tucson.
apparently Cardano guys are mad

legacy people do legacy things. outsiders bring new approaches and new perspectives, and can learn (and hire) quickly
I’m not sure if everyone understands how big of a deal this is. it’s the first time regular people can become cellular network operators. don’t miss it

From launching Beta, building hype in Miami, and rolling out new features like Discovery Mapping & Pay with MOBILE to releasing our $20 nationwide plan, 2023 has been a HUGE year for Helium Mobile🙌
Thanks for joining us on this journey. Here's to making more waves in 2024!…
several people have asked me about Amazon’s Sidewalk s̶u̶r̶v̶e̶i̶l̶l̶a̶n̶c̶e̶ wireless network and how it relates to
@helium
. i figured I’d write my thoughts in a thread
the
@helium
network has moved 7.5 *billion* sensor messages this year alone and is the 4th highest revenue L1 blockchain according to
@tokenterminal
there are plenty of examples of tokens that have no value to society, but HNT isn’t one of them
@BillAckman
@helium
@limebike
Counterpoint: The LIME BIKE partnership was fake. HNT is only a great example of how ponzinomics can create artificial demand for a token that is ultimately almost completely unused by society.
The Grayscale Utilities and Services Crypto Sector represents the “picks and shovels'' for developers building in the crypto ecosystem.

still feel like
@aeyakovenko
role in
@solana
success is under appreciated. I've learned a lot from watching the value of making the pie bigger rather than taking shots at other projects
i've personally known
@aeyakovenko
and
@rajgokal
for several years, and some of the team
@novalabs_
even longer (pre-crypto). both of our teams worked painfully through the last bear market when it felt like all of crypto was dead. similar to how it feels now
this is one of the things I am most excited about, because seeing someone build a consumer product on top of
@helium
is the culmination of almost 11 years of work
thanks
@DIMO_Network
! super excited to try one of these myself. I have a shiny minivan ready for the task
really disappointing to see this from

@helium
won’t live or die on the behavior of one exchange
I’m excited to see

@binance
delisting of HNT is unfortunate. Token owners should consider moving to the self-custodial Helium Wallet app or an exchange that has confirmed migration support. More confirmed partners will be announced to the ecosystem in the coming days.
Coinbase will add support for Helium (HNT) on the Solana network (SPL token). Do not send this asset over other networks or your funds may be lost. Transfers for this asset are available on

in the regions where trading is supported.
a lot of discussion floating around about
@helium
and various companies that have used the network over the years. I wanted to clear a few things up. it’s been frustrating and upsetting to read some of this stuff
what’s so important about
@helium_mobile
BUILD? I’ll explain
when we launched
@helium
the point was to create a ubiquitous IOT network with radically improved economics vs a traditional telco. this worked. you can send a message from a sensor for $0.00001 with no contracts or…
Introducing… BUILD. 👋
BUILD is a new section of the Helium Mobile website for people who are participating and building the Helium Mobile Network!
We've also built 2 important tools for pros! 👀
