Can Blockchain Truly Revolutionize Telecommunications?

In this episode of The Index, Alex Kehaya chats with Coco Tang, General Manager of Helium Mobile, about how blockchain is transforming the telecom industry. From Helium’s origins as an IoT network to its ambitious leap into mobile, Coco dives into the challenges, milestones, and practical blockchain applications.

Helium Mobile stands out as the world’s first crypto carrier built on Solana, a high-performance blockchain.

Solana now powers Helium Mobile’s token storage, demonstrating how blockchain can redefine connectivity.

As a mobile virtual network operator (MVNO), Helium Mobile blends its decentralized network with T-Mobile’s infrastructure. This unique model allows users to earn tokens and even offset their phone bills—a game-changer in telecom.
