I feel uncertain for both projects given Helium is in that space for long …
But if I have to choose, I’ll give Roam a shot since those guys have
put so much efforts into their consumer-end app (I mean, you can download the Roam app and check out yourself, they even put AI Agent in it …)
they have better security guarantees w/ end-to-end encryption

Anyone pulling the trigger on one, both or neither? Helium provides some pretty steep competition here too…
@DePINBetaTester I posted a slight answer to your question and my feelings about Helium. Ultimately, Helium was prime for me when I started in October of 2024 but I never received Data Rewards from anyone else but myself. PoC rewards were better as you may know. The first day I deployed Karrier One, I have end users connecting to the Karrier One SSID automatically.

@DePINBetaTester I did and they both are very smooth. The I use at&t on some of my plans. It actually improved speed for everyone in the building. I use helium as well and it has gotten better with it. I improved speed on internet and now want to add another helium hotspot.
Roam
Karrier One
I have been running a Karrier One for a couple of months now. Serving quite a bit of data (1/2 GB / day average). Won’t know how profitable or not until TGE. I have the Roam app on my cell. I don’t want to take the time to learn how to turn their points into actual funds so I haven’t been in a big hurry to pay money for a device. I do have a Helium HS on the way so I am eager to see how it does vs the Karrier One on data and rewards
