State of the Helium Network
summary
Helium claims close to a million hotspots and about 10% population coverage, with IoT messages rising from 2.2 billion to 7.5 billion year-over-year. Open LNS lets any LoRaWAN network server handle device auth and provisioning, intended to multiply sensor deployments by outsourcing backend work. A 5G layer now has ~6,800 hotspots and Helium Mobile launches as a hybrid with T‑Mobile that burns HNT into data credits. Token migration and ecosystem services are moving to Solana.
