Testing Hard fork, 1.2..3… Research Log (25th October) —— . @helium, a decentralised network provider, has something called as Data Credits, spent by a device in the network to transfer data. Helium has 2 types of networks: - IoT (LoRaWAN radio protocol) - Mobile (Cellular Network technology) Each Data Credit (DC) sends 1 data packet across the network. 1 DC has it’s price capped at $0.00001 for both the networks, but have different packet sizes for each network. - IoT : 1 DC -> 24-Bytes of data - Mobile : 1 DC -> 20,000 Bytes of data Questions: - Next radio stack could be NB-IoT? and LTE-M? Re-Uses dated cellular tech like 2g/3g/4g and now 5g/5gNR infra to operate. - Can Helium nodes be re-utilised for providing a limited execution layer (eBPF with radio stack access) for running Low Power apps that can process radio data locally? And introducing Compute Credits for the same!
