Many of my helium units with actual utility are still making decent money. Some even more so than many of these other depin projects that cost 2x as much to start. My highest earning indoor unit would make the investment back in a month based on current earnings.

If you know you’ve got some decent locations, go for it.

Something people overlook all the time is they rely on the 50 cents a gig reward that exists now and try to build a business around that.

The concern with this is the 50 cents a gig reward is being subsidized by Nova. Eventually this price will drop. To what number? People anticipate to where the true cost per gb would be in those locations. They are all different.

Don’t be surprised if it ends up going to 10 cents a gig one day.

There’s been a lot of people who have tried to make a deployment business before and lots of them get screwed at some point from network changes. Not trying to say it’s a bad idea but people go underwater very easy with slight changes.

If you are 100% set on doing this watch out how to setup your agreement. If you want to pay half of what it earn to the business, sure that works but eventually when it’s like too little money for the business to care I’ve seen them ask to remove the hotspot.

but maybe you can sell it as a service that boosts the cell phone signal to keep customers in the store longer.

The point I’m trying to make is think outside the rewards. If you rely on those you will most likely get screwed at some point.

Some people tell the businesses they will buy them another internet line as backup to deploy in their locations. But when the rewards drop they might be underwater on the internet connection.

The way data transfer works currently is it doesn’t matter what price HNT is. It 50 cents a gig and can only go lower.

It’s probably a good idea to chill in our discord voice chat. It’s something explained easier over voice than text.
