Neil Chatterjee built Andrena from a Princeton rooftop into a wireless ISP serving 4m+ users across. Now he's scaling that model globally with Dawn, a decentralized wireless protocol on Solana that lets anyone beam high-speed internet from a single antenna to a quarter million homes for $10K.

In this episode, Dr Jemma Green and Neil dig into why fiber's three-to-five year payback period collapses to one-to-two years with wireless, how new 6GHz spectrum unlocked by the FCC is bigger than what gave us Wi-Fi and Bluetooth combined, and why the tokenization of physical infrastructure is headed toward RWA-style financial engineering rather than inflationary rewards.

They also cover how Dawn complements Starlink in emerging markets, why building owners are starting to treat internet like tap water, and what capital formation through DePIN actually looks like when you tighten the loop between deployment and yield.

Neil Chatterjee founded Andrena out of Princeton University to compete with Comcast and Verizon using wireless technology. He then built Dawn, a Solana-based protocol turning internet bandwidth into a decentralized, tradeable commodity covering 4 million+ households across the US, Ghana, and Latin America.
