Imagine this:
- You buy a device that turns your home internet into a public hotspot.
- The device extends your signal 200 times farther than a standard WiFi connection.
- You get paid when other people use the hotspot.
That’s the promise of Helium, “a startup that uses a blockchain to facilitate wireless connections.”
Buying a hotspot will cost you $495 – US only – but there’s no info available on how much you’d earn, just that payment would be in the form of a new cryptocurrency.
Worth keeping an eye on.
