Tomorrow we’re going live at 9am PT / 12pm ET with some big updates for the Helium Network. Wireless is a trillion dollar industry that struggles to keep up with today's data demands and density. Helium Mobile proved that a consumer carrier service could run on a people-built network and bring affordable connectivity to the masses. Now that the consumer carrier has a great new home with Noble Mobile, we're fully focused on the bigger opportunity: the Helium Network. Carrier adoption is growing with millions of people using the Helium Network every day. We're building a real-time intelligence platform legacy providers don't have. And we're expanding globally. The next era starts here. Join us tomorrow to hear more. x.com/i/spaces/1RJjppMdyeZKw…

One of the top US carriers now lets its subscribers roam onto the Helium Network when they travel to Mexico 🇲🇽! And local deployers with Hotspots? They get paid for connecting them. No new towers. No massive infrastructure spend. Just people-built coverage.

The Helium Discord is coming back. We got this one wrong. We shut it down because we believed we were missing the larger deployer audience that didn't spend all day on Discord, but doing so removed a space the community relied on. We've heard that clearly. The Network is entering its next chapter, and the community that built the Network is critical to our shared success. 🧵/1

Nearly perfect convergence of factors: ↘️Telcos trying to slash their capex ↗️Consumer and commercial demand for data only going up ..all while carrier offload to Helium keeps climbing 📈 Helium is eating a multi-billion dollar market from the inside. $HNT
We're proud to report a strong Q1 for Helium 💪 •Data transfer 55% QoQ •DAU avg 47.9% QoQ •Network offload at major US events •Telco capex evolving in Helium's favor •New deployer tools live Enjoy the report from @Blockworks and stay tuned for a Q1 Network Call in May!

Helium Mobile active users have reached a new all-time high. Around 3.5 million unique users have connected to a Helium Mobile hotspot daily, up 3x since November 2025.

Built and shipped the solution while industrial groups were still drafting the warning.
A year ago, @CTIA warned of a looming spectrum crisis. The report predicted U.S. wireless demand would exceed supply within the next few years. Can't get a text through at the game or the airport? That's peak congestion already affecting our daily lives 🧵

Would you look at this...@helium's IR report is in the Bloomberg Terminal and can be found in multiple feeds (Digital Asset Equity Research Feed, the Solana ticker feed, etc). Just use Blockworks IR.

If you’re a @helium @helium_mobile deployer STOP setting the wrong expectations with your hosts then blame the network! 1) STOP doing FIXED payments. That has always and will always be a terrible idea. 2)SELL the TECH! Customers really do have a better experience indoors with the helium deployments. 3)SELL the passive rewards, not the amount! I tell our hosts you won’t get rich but it “MAY” help with a bill or two. HELP not PAY….watch 👀 your words. 4) STOP 🛑 psyching yourself out FREE is FREE if your hosts don’t think that’s enough move one. 5) DON’T force a sale! From my experience I would’ve been better walking away. They tend to be the most problematic hosts.

You can make up stories or you can look at the data. Thankfully @blockworksres did the work already.

The Helium Network already serves nearly two million people every day, a number that’s growing as the network continues to expand. In this interview, @HeliumFndn CEO @ScottSigel explains how the project is redefining telecom with a people-powered wireless network that’s already partnered with major carriers like Telefónica and AT&T, using crypto incentives to make connectivity more available, affordable, and decentralized than ever before.

the telecom industry is in the middle of a massive shift for macro (outdoor) coverage, Starlink is coming with DTD/DTC (direct to device/cell). telco's are not yet sure what to make of it. does it actually work? how's the performance? telco neckbeards are skeptical, but I would generally not bet against Elon given how well Starlink works in general. possible that the model of building celltowers is dead forever if Starlink DTD works well for indoor coverage, the state of the art used to be something called DAS (distributed antenna system). basically a network of fiber-connected cellular antennas connected to one or more base stations. many arenas, casinos, conference centers, airports, etc are outfitted with DAS. typical deployment costs are in the millions or tens of millions of $. you've probably noticed the phenomenon when you're at a conference or busy event that you have full bars of service, but zero data flowing. that is almost certainly a DAS system with the base station over capacity venues who are looking to upgrade or replace their DAS systems are now looking at WiFi options instead. particularly WiFi 7. why? now that Passpoint is ubiquitous, allowing phones to automatically connect without a separate authentication system/portal, and the majority of WiFi congestion issues are solved via massive amounts of 6GHz spectrum, you get the same or better performance as a DAS system for a fraction of the cost "but everywhere already has WiFi" you say - this is exactly the point. most indoor locations already have WiFi systems of some kind, but there is still no federation of credentials and authentication that allows people to automagically connect. I don't want to see a list of 50 WiFi networks that are password protected, or pay $10 to access some shitty portal system @helium is sitting perfectly at the intersection of both of these major shifts. satellite/dtd/dtc will never work well indoors; like celltowers, only worse. and DAS systems are being ripped and replaced with much more efficient WiFi systems. we have spent years building the groundwork for a global unified layer of connectivity and now is the time. customers wander in to these locations and their phones connect to the WiFi network via our Passpoint-enabled systems. connected customers = happy customers = more time spent in the venue = more $ spent in the venue you are going to see more and more large scale venues move to Helium over the coming months the ticker is $HNT

Indoor wireless adoption is soaring, largely fueled by interest and active utilization from big 3 telcos. Study @helium
