However, the project has advanced quite a bit and actually according to their website has an impressive <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/LoRa\" target=\"_blank\">LoRaWAN<\/a> network built out (uses 900 MHz ham band &#8211; see below). It&#8217;s all based on the Helium Network Token, HNT, which is used to buy network access and reward the people who buy devices and provide that wireless network access. LoRaWAN, Long Range WAN, is a low bitrate wireless protocol for battery operated IoT devices. Helium Network is also promoting people to run 5G cellular access, but their coverage map is far less developed as the hardware is much more expensive.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"580\" src=\"https:\/\/jasonsblog.ddns.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/helium-1024x580.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-2545\" srcset=\"https:\/\/jasonsblog.ddns.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/helium-1024x580.png 1024w, https:\/\/jasonsblog.ddns.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/helium-300x170.png 300w, https:\/\/jasonsblog.ddns.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/helium-768x435.png 768w, https:\/\/jasonsblog.ddns.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/helium.png 1238w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Looks like Helium Network&#8217;s financial backing is mostly from a couple of elite venture capitalist firms,<a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Helium_Network\" target=\"_blank\"> &#8220;$200\u00a0million in a funding round led by Tiger Global Management and Andreessen Horowitz.&#8221;<\/a>. And the new name of the parent company Nova Labs Inc bought <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/freedomfi.com\/catalog\/\" target=\"_blank\">FreedomFi<\/a>, and they&#8217;re trying to get people to spend thousands on a router and outside 5G cellular system to build out their 5G network. Consequently, I wouldn&#8217;t want my neighbor setting up one of these on his roof with 30-50w of 3.7 GHz spread spectrum RF constantly bombarding my house and us (reminds me of early 5G plans with mini cell towers distributed through neighborhoods at 200w). Is this the plan (or backup) for the technocratic elite to get coverage everywhere for all their connected devices, tracking everything and getting the slaves to invest in the equipment for them? <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1018\" height=\"368\" src=\"https:\/\/jasonsblog.ddns.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/FreedomFi.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-2546\" srcset=\"https:\/\/jasonsblog.ddns.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/FreedomFi.png 1018w, https:\/\/jasonsblog.ddns.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/FreedomFi-300x108.png 300w, https:\/\/jasonsblog.ddns.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/FreedomFi-768x278.png 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1018px) 100vw, 1018px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>It&#8217;s also worth pointing out that Helium Network IoT LoRaWAN uses frequencies within the 900 MHz ham radio band where we&#8217;re secondary users.

As there isn&#8217;t a lot of money to be made quite yet, the investment in these companies and manufacturers is coming from elite venture capital firms, and that is concerning when you consider the globalist elite&#8217;s desire to establish a technocracy which requires lots of data from everything. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Additional coverage of some partnerships:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/seekingalpha.com\/article\/4543485-helium-partners-with-tmobile-5g-what-investors-need-know\">https:\/\/seekingalpha.com\/article\/4543485-helium-partners-with-tmobile-5g-what-investors-need-know<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/about.dish.com\/2021-10-26-DISH-Partners-with-Helium-to-Leverage-the-Helium-Networks-Blockchain-Model-using-CBRS-Spectrum\">https:\/\/about.dish.com\/2021-10-26-DISH-Partners-with-Helium-to-Leverage-the-Helium-Networks-Blockchain-Model-using-CBRS-Spectrum<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>https:\/\/www.zerohedge.com\/crypto\/mysterious-antennas-found-utahs-hills-some-speculate-decentralized-blockchain-network If I had heard of the Helium Network, it didn&#8217;t catch my eye at the time with there being so many cryptocurrency projects.
