Basically title. I remember reading about it back in like 2018, I even remember a company that would provide crypto based on the amount of traffic you let through. Just curious if that ever saw any growth.
Everything I google keeps bringing up things on the darkweb. The goal of this was explicitly to go “ISP-less”. Like they envisioned mesh net covering giant swathes of space.
Helium is a crypto based on LoRaWAN, which is essentially a wireless long-range low-bandwidth network designed for IoT devices. The idea is that helium coins/tokens are awarded to users based on how much traffic their node carries.
I think helium is the company I’m thinking of, but I swear there was a focus on everyday, not just IoT
