INTRODUCTION

Helium is a global, distributed network of Hotspots that create public,
long-range wireless coverage for LoRaWAN-enabled IoT devices and cellular
devices. LoRaWAN™ Hotspots produce and are compensated in IOT, the native
cryptocurrency of the Helium blockchain. The Helium blockchain is a new,
open-source, public blockchain created entirely to incentivize the creation of
physical, decentralized wireless networks. Today, the Helium IoT Network, and
its hundreds of thousands of Hotspots, provide access to the largest LoRaWAN
Network in the world.

If, at any time, you don't find what you need, join us in our Discord.
