Helium protocol
Overview
Helium operates as a decentralized wireless network protocol, falling under the DePIN category, which rewards participants for setting up and running physical wireless gear. The network originally supported IoT devices via LoRaWAN technology before branching into 5G cellular services. Its blockchain employs a proof-of-coverage consensus mechanism to confirm hotspot positions and validate data transmission.
Within The Counterparty graph, Helium connects to 20 tracked entities, most strongly to Solana, Solana, LoRaWAN.
