If you build software in the
@helium
ecosystem, make sure you're counted in
@ElectricCapital
's next Dev Report.
1. Check if you're listed here (Ctrl-F is your friend):
2. Also if you're writing solana programs within the ecosystem, check here:
Developer Report 2023 is coming SOON.
If you write open source code, include your work in this year's Dev Report by adding your repository to the open crypto taxonomy:
We are locking the data for repositories this week! 🔒

The Postal Service was profitable in FY 2021 (and had a one-time windfall in FY 2022 because of Congressional support). It also wants the government to support a cut of its payments to the Federal retirement fund to reduce its projected FY 2023 losses by a quarter. The latter

What if the

Build the network and don't forget call your mother sometime.

Setting up a

1. Open box
2. Plug in back up batteries
3. Align device
4. See local weather.
I didn't have to think about connectivity here. No putting a random device on my home WiFi, etc.

In crypto, self custody is always best. For the
@helium
network, that means the mobile app and the Ledger wallet. Storing your HNT or MOBILE with a counterparty (like an exchange or custody provider) comes with access to their products but one should understand risks and DYOR.

Super cool to have an option outside of a public cloud provider to run a

Our community is coming up with new ways to deploy Validators in preparation for Mainnet. We're thrilled that

has announced their open-source $HNT staking solution with the decentralized cloud. Read more on the Akash blog: .

🫡 The Helium L1 halted and block production on the former chain stopped.

Appreciate
@amirhaleem
for setting the record straight. Some of this stuff happened before I joined the
@helium

@novalabs_
team continue to be advocates of a better way of connecting the world. Haters be damned.
I haven’t written much about this article, but now feels like a good time. this was a truly awful hatchet job on us from the Forbes team
- when we launched
@helium
the team had around 35 hotspots to start the network
- hotspots were delivered to the public in Austin 48 hours

The last epoch was the first since the migration where the MOBILE treasury mined more HNT than the IOT treasury. This is because of paid MOBILE usage from subscribers and more delegation from veHNT holders. It's going to be interesting to watch.

This is pretty incredible. Map to Earn. Pay with mapping rewards. Validate and help grow the network that’s truly people-powered.

This reminds me a lot of early days at
@Square
. Being able to close a prospective merchant by handing over a reader and seeing them sign up on the spot was magical. I had a "spare" reader in the pocket of every pair of pants.
Lambda School "word of mouth" is unlike anything I've ever seen.
At our company retreat this week, we had members of the hotel staff ask how they could become students.
Feels like almost every conversation leads to a potential student (or an intro to a family member/friend).
