Why GEODNET Might Win

1. Mission-Critical, Machine-to-Machine Infrastructure

GEODNET powers Real-Time Kinematic (RTK) satellite correction data — a foundational layer for:

• • Autonomous vehicles and drones

• • Precision agriculture

• • Construction and surveying

• • Telecom towers and satellite backhaul
  

This infrastructure is consumed continuously by machines that don’t sleep, pause, or turn off. Demand is predictable and always-on.

3. Less Regulatory Friction = Faster Global Scaling

Helium Mobile must navigate:

• • FCC regulations

• • SIM provisioning

• • MVNO contracts

• • 911 compliance
  
  

GEODNET, on the other hand:

• • Operates in an unlicensed GNSS augmentation layer

• • Faces zero telecom regulatory hurdles

• Can deploy globally without bureaucratic bottlenecks

4. Cleaner Token Model with Real Data Incentives

• • Avoids Helium’s multi-token complexity (HNT, IOT, MOBILE)

• • Rewards are tied to data value, not uptime alone

• • Keeps emissions tighter and aligned with enterprise-grade usage

• Reduces inflation and ensures sustainable token velocity

Why Helium Is Still #1 (And Might Stay There)

1. Largest DePIN Network in the World

• • Over 1 million nodes deployed

• • Covers both IoT (LoRaWAN) and 5G/Mobile

• • No other DePIN project comes close in scale, reach, or mindshare

2. Mobile Connectivity Is the Biggest Prize

The $2 trillion+ mobile market is up for grabs. Helium Mobile’s MVNO deal with T-Mobile includes:

• • Nationwide fallback coverage

• • A clear onboarding path for retail users

• • Proof-of-Coverage mechanisms linked to real-world mobile usage
  
  

Helium is the only DePIN network delivering live, consumer-facing mobile service at scale.

3. Strong Flywheel: Real Users, Real Data, Real Rewards

• • Consumer buys a SIM

• • Uses the network

• Generates data usage

• • Gets rewarded
