Althea

Typical ISP stack = multiple systems stitched together QOS → Preseem Billing → VISP Routing → OSPF Althea unifies routing, billing, and payments in one system, with a purpose built settlement layer: Althea L1 This is what telecom of the future should look like.

This network is referred to as CACTI: Connecting Arizona Communities Through Infrastructure and is using the power of @AltheaNetwork protocol and L1 blockchain - getting underway now.

This is the foundation of iFi, Infrastructure Finance, a new economy where networks and physical infrastructure coordinate payments natively. Learn more ➡️ Althea.net Build 📚 Docs.Althea.net Community 🤝 discord.gg/nDMg4cNef

Whether deployed as consumer routers, edge nodes, or full servers, Althea devices can make secure machine-to-machine payments in real time, enabling programmable economics for telecom and utilities. Infrastructure that moves data can now move money. ⚡️ 2/3

Althea routers include embedded hardware wallets, turning network infrastructure into financial infrastructure. 1/3

LISC, the Liquid Infrastructure Smart Contract, handles the revenue share and coordinates payouts programmatically. Usage is metered, settlement happens on-chain, and revenue is distributed transparently. 3/3 docs.althea.net/pages/L1/althe…

Althea’s machine-to-machine billing measures actual traffic as it happens. That usage data feeds directly into on-chain settlement — no batch invoices, no back-office reconciliation cycles. Every participant is paid based on what the network actually does. 2/3

Infrastructure isn’t just steel, fiber, and spectrum anymore. With Althea + Liquid Infrastructure, networks can track usage in real time and move payments just as fast as they move data. 1/3

AI knows whats up! Use @Globalstar N53, XCOM RAN and the @AltheaNetwork stack to optimize your 5G deployments.

Althea firmware is now available on Cudy routers, bringing protocol-native routing, billing, and management to off-the-shelf hardware. Althea is hardware agnostic by design, built to support real-world infrastructure on Althea L1. More flexibility. Less friction.

Broadband is a core utility, and the market is growing fast. Residential internet services are projected to more than triple by 2034, while U.S. broadband revenue continues climbing. Althea Protocol + Althea L1 are built for utilities to deploy broadband with automated operations and transparent settlement. ⚡️🌐
